OFFICER ESTATE ALSO PROMISES MORE Dividend of Two and a Half Per Cent to Be Paid as goon aa Anthorlaed by Order of the Con if. The creditors of the defunct banking Arm of Officer A Ptisey will recover more than was anticipated aCthe time the bank went Into the hands of receivers. With the amount received last week from the Pusey A Thomas Abstract company In settlement of Its liability to the bank receivers, Be:es heim and Murphy stated yesterday that they now had eufliclent funds on hand to pay another dividend of per rent aa soon aa the necessary proceedings In court could be completed. In addition to this the receivers expect to be able to pay, be Tore long, another dividend of the same amount. This will undoubted'y be good news to the nearly 1,50 creditors of the defunct banking firm. ' When the Officer & Pusey bank, on the death of the senior member of the firm, Thomas Officer, went Into liquidation In September, 1900, the liabilities aggregated something over fi24,0OO. Since then Receiv ers Bereshelm and Murphy have succeeded, In addition to paying In full preferred claims and offsets amounting to approx imately $7.5,000, In paying three dividends amounting to 60 per cent, as follows: In February,. 1901, 25 per cent; Decemler, 19 d, 30 per cent, and October, 19u2, a per cent. In addition to the dividends paid by the receivers of the bank, J. J. Stewart, ad ministrator of the personal estate of Thomas Officer, the senior member of the banking firm, has paid dividends to the creditors of the bank amounting to "Vi per cent, making 67H per cent which the genernl creditors have received on their claims. As the receivers stated yesterday, they still expect to pay 6 per cent more, the general creditors will receive at least C2V4 per cent of the claims, if not more. More in Might. That Administrator Stewart of the Of ficer estate will be able to pay another dividend la certain, as among the assets of the estate there still remalna the valu able mining property In Colorado, known aa. the Percy-Chester mines. What these mines wiil realize cannot be ascertained at this time, but they have been appraised as high as $100,000. In the event of this mining property bringing anywhere near this sum, the general creditors of the Of ficer & Pusey bank will recover almost all If not the entire amount of their claims. Receivers Bereshelm and Murphy have still $10,000 worth of real estate belonging to the bank to dispose of In addition to twenty acres of land located In one of the suburbs of Chicago. The latter, it is expected, wi:i before long prove a valuable asset. The receivers have also yet to dis pose of the Walter Scott mine, for which they- recently refused an offer of $3,000. The . 60 per cent dividend paid by the re ceivers' to date has reduced the original Indebtedness of "the bank $284,000 1ft 'round figures, In addition to the $35,000 of pre ferred claims and offsets. Within the last year or so some of the bank's creditors1 have -crlticlzipd what they called the dilatory methods of the receiv ers In winding up the business of the de funct firm. This Receiver Murphy stated yesterday was to be expected, inasmuch as they were not conversant with the vast amount of detail work that had to be done by the receivers. .When, as Receiver Mur phy said yesterday, It must be taken Into account that "many of the accounts with the Officer & Pussey bank dated back for fifty years and that there are nearly 1.000 creditors to deal with, the work of clos ing up the business must of a necessity consume considerable time. Regarding the report that a. large amount of the assets of the bank has been ex pended In attorneys' fees. Receiver Mur phy yesterday said: "While there has been almost endless litigation In connec tion with winding up the affairs of this bank the cost of the proceedings In the different courts, which Includes the attor neys' fees, has been less than VA per cent of the money ' collected. I believe that when the affairs of the bank are finally wound up the creditors 'will realize that everything done by the receivers has been done solely In the Interest of the creditors." Matters In District Coart. Raymond Roop, the lad who confessed to the police thst he had taken part In the recent numerous robberiea of stores In dif ferent parts of the city, wras yesterday or dered by Judge Wheeler of the district court under the newly enacted Juvenile law committed to the reform school at Eldora.

STATE FAIR HAS AUSPICIOUS OPENING Ten Thonannd la the Total Katlmated Attendance far First Day and Kvenlnn -Weather Favors the Mnnsgemrnt. (From a Staff Correspondent. DES 'MOINES, Aug. 2l. (Special )-Oov-ernor A. B. Cummins returned this morn ing from a three weeks' vacation spent In making a trip Into and through Canad.t and spending a few days In New England. The governor while absent had abundant opportunity fur meeting many politicians and business men and he returns quite confident that there Is not a shadow of doubt, about the election of Pnsident Roosevelt. The enthusiasm which fts promised for Farkcr has not- materialised. The political situation Is decidedly quiet and neither side will have the campaign funds that have been spent in other cam paigns. "There Is no doubt In my mind about the election of President Roosevelt," said the governor. "There may be n few changes one way or another, but there is no gen eral movement either to the republican party or to the democratic party. All la quiet In politics In the east. They are say ing that Judg Parker Is a good man per sonally and they wouldn't object to having him for president, and that personally he would be a good president! but they are also looking back of the candidates to see the parties they rrpresent. and It is to be a square fight between the two parties. The people are to decide which one will best serve their interests. It Is because of this tendency that I count New York certain for the republican ticket. It is far more certain than Indiana. It Is also gen erally observed that campaign funds are not very lutge this year. Business men are not making great profits, and they prefer to retrench In rampaign matters. I think neither party will have the funds at hand that have been mentioned as pos sible, and neither will mike that kind of an exciting campaign known In other years." Stale Frlr. The estimate of attendance at the Iowa state fair today was about 4,W during the " 'T " I day, with about the same num uer it nenu- l lng the evening entertainment.
