THREE LOW BIDS.
For the Fixtures of the
Peoples Bank.
Receiver Sheehan Announces That
a Dividend of per Cent Will
Be Paid This Month.

At noon yesterday Receiver Sheen an OF
the Peoples Home Savings Bank opened
the sealed proposals for the purchase OF
the safe deposit vaults, fittings, etc., now
in the banks quarters on Market street.
This action was taken at the instance OF
the board of directors. who recently de-
cided to dispose of all the bank property
In order to leave the premises. thereby
doing away with the large monthly rental
now being paid.
Aside from the board there were pres
ent Mr.. Mahony. representing the depos-
itors, the bidders and several newspaper
representatives.
The Bank Commissi oners who had be en-
invited to be present were conspicuous by
their absence, although the proceedings
were lot in the least interfered with by
their failure to attend.
There we're but three bids handed in, the
first opened being that submitted by G. O..
Perry, manager Of the Columbian Banking
Company, doing business in the Mills build
ing His offer for all the fixtures and
personal property now in the bank
premises was IN the sum of $3.50 cash.
with an agreement to lease the property to
the directors, if needed at $50 month for
one year.
Charles Waltz. the safe manufacturer,
made an offer of $4,000 cash, without any
stiDulations or pToViS0s
The last bid was from A. Meter. a
financial broker, who offered the sum of
5000, payable in monthly installments of
500 each. He will agree to pay $500 at
the end of six months, providing he is en-
abled to rent all the boxes contained in
the safe deposit vault.
There were other conditions. which.
added to these, made Mr.. METERS bid SO
complicated that its consideration was
deemed out of the question.
Mir. Sheehan expressed himself as much
disappointed at the lowness of the offers
and is by no means favorable to their ac
ceptance.
The safe deposit vaults alone originally
cost S27, 900 to construct and put in place.
while the bank furniture and fxipgs are
now valued at about SIS, 600, making the
total valuation something like $40. 600
There are ITO safe-deposit boxes con-
tanned in the massive vault, of which AGO
are now rented. aggregating a yearly in.
come of 5000.
The bids will be submitted to the
Superior Court for approval before being
accepted by the directors, but the pr0ba.
bilities are that the court will nuIlify
them all.
Receiver Sheehan stated yesterday that
he would in all probability be prepared TO
declare dividend of 8 per cent before the
close of this month on the 81, SOC. 900 of
deposits. In order to accomplish this he
will require S75.000 half of which sum he
will have on band by next Saturday.
Notice will be given IF the exact date of
the payment later.

theatrical firm of Corbelt & Brady, and
with fair percentage of luck this should
yield the champion fine investment, for
all of the attractions owned by the firm
are popular. Mrs. COrbett doesn't like to
have her husband fight, as a rule, but she
does hope he can find way to settle the
old score with Peter Jacksnn. As for her
father. he never quits talking about the
sure thing COrbett would have with the
Australian. He saw them fight in Frisco,
and 1t does him good to argue on that bad
leg story of Jackson's.
I've only got cOrns," said he. with a
vince, "but | couldn't stand up for four
hours, let alone dance around a ring.
Now, how on earth could Jackson go that
far with broken ankle ?"
Father-in-Iaw Lake takes keen delight
in showing friends of the family through
the house, over which he has general su-
pervisiOn. CoTbett WON'T be satisfied until
he has spent $4,000 more in furnishing
his house, which is now the most elaborate
residence fighter ever owned.

The Corbett family's meals are served on
an Oaken table, with big carved legs and
some carving at the sides. And, surDris-
ing as it may seem. the cook suits them.
They have had the same one ever since
ago.

after his third meal at bone, "but that

big appetite. The cook has carte blanche

Turkish stuff. which matches in its gen.
eral color the rugs and side walls.
Then comes the bathroom, which Mr..
Lake likes because there are TWO windows
in it. COrbett fancies it for the reason
that it is the finest bathroom he ever
looked a.. The tub in which the champion
spends nearly an hour every morning is
one of those porcelain affairs with silver
plated fixtures. Glazed white thing makes

was a good fellow. But be set an example
for his successor. The impression that
COrbett is not liberal with his money is a
mistaken one. His purse is always open
TO his friends, and although he is not a
"hurrah' sort OF fellow he goes through q
comfortable sum every day.
From the time he beat Sullivan, which
brought him $4,000 gross but less than
$4,000 net, Corbett has made a great deal
of money. Out of it he paid off a 5000
mortgage on his fathers house In San
Francisco. bought farm up near Jerome
Park for $4,000. and purchased the Eighty
scented this house to Mrs. Corbelt as

this apartment. and if the excitement
keeps up and the times improve there will

West Eighty-eighth street than there are
