BUSHNELL DIVIDEND.
1t Amounts to $1.25 on the Thou

1t amounts to S1.25 on the Thou
sand.
An order was made by Judge Willis
yesterday directing the st. Paul Trust
company, as assignee of Bushnell 81
Bushnell, to pay its first dividend to
creditors. The dividend amounts to
the insignificant sum of one-eightth of
l per cent on the amount due, or $1.25 on
each thousand dollars. When William
NJ. Bushnell and Alvin r. Bushnell
made an assignment of their partner.
ship, and also the Standard Investment
company, little over two years ago,
they filed schedules in which they
claimed that their assets amounted
to over $4,000, while they es-
timated their liabilities at the
much lower sum of 1868, 49, o. o.
Cullen was first named as the assignee,
but after an investigation he declined
to serve and expressed the view that
very small percentage would be meted
out to creditors. The St. Paul Trust
company was appointed by the court
and took charge Of the affairs. The
news of the failure brought in hundreds
of claims from all parts of the East;
from ministers, widows and others from
all over the country, which were due
for money loaned under the impression
that it was being invested in real
estate in their name. The assets
dwindled rapidly and the liabilities
swelled with remarkable velocity. The
Bushnells heard whiSperings of GRIM
inal prosecution, and were found miss
ing one morning soon after the Trust
, company took charge. There are still a
few that believe that the Bushnells
| were unfortunate, but honest, but there
| are great many people who are
anxious for their return from Monterey,
and make good their promises to pay
up the entire Indebtedness. When
they are ready TO pay debts in full it
will require long purse we'll filled with
several hundred thousands Of dollars.
