Savings Bank Dividend. John W. Ray, receiver of the Indianapolis Savings Bank, yesterday made the following report to Judge Walker: "The receiver of the Indianapolis Savings Bank, respectfully reports that he has money enough on hand to justify the court to order a dividend of ten per cent. upon the deposits formerly held by the bank, payable to the depositors entitied to the same. He further reports that the real estate which came into his hands was appraised for the sum of $49,148.55, that the sales of real estate to date amount to $26,895.00; that it was appraised at $21,869.55, and that the excess of sales over appraisement was $5,025.45. The appraised value of the real estate yet involved is $27,299. He further reports that it will be advantageous to the depositors that notice of this dividend be published in such papers as the court may order, and that it will very much expedite the payment of the diyidend if the receiver be allowed to employ a clerk to assist for a period of ten to fourteen days until the rush is past." Judge Walker ordered the appointment of a clerk, in accordance with the above request, and the publication indicated, as well as the payment of the dividend.
