NO 87. THE DOLLAR SAVINGS BANK.waiting of the depositors of the Dollar Savings Bank was on Saturday rewarded by an instalment of ten per cent. being paid them on their claims. The whole amount of money disbursed amounted to near $13,000, and Judge Hughes had to sign about five hundred checks. There will be another instalment of about equal amount, itis hoped, in the course of a few weeks. Most of the depositors were mechanics and small traders, and their discomfiture by the suspension of the concern has been great indeed. Some cases of extraordinary hardship appeared during the various proceedings that have 00curred. The special depositors-those who were persuaded to put their money in the bank after the first suspension, upon the pledge that it would not be mixed up with old accounts-claim that they ought to be paid in full, and Judge Hughes will decide that point on the 23d. Should he decide in their-favor there will be enough money left after this first instalment is paid to meet their demands.
