PENSION FUND TO
 PAY 62 PER CENT
faIIs Five Cents on the Dollar Below Record of Last Y ear, but Runs
 Above That of Prior Years.

Little Rock, Sept. S.-Only 62 cents on the dollar will be paid this year by the state on Confeder ate pensions. The announcement was made yesterday by the state auditors office after the pension accounts were closed. The total amount subject to distribution is ..'462. .329,S4.
 Last year e cents on the dol ] was paid on the pensions. Tn decrease this year is caused by the fact that there are many mcre pensioners on the list and SIC pension fund is about $4 ,OOO less The absence of any funds from Monroe county which was given additional time to settle with the state on account of the tornado disaster last spring. is largely accountable for the de crease in the amount for distrib@- ton. The total amount distribu- aed last year was $466,6SS.
 In 1907 only 46 cents on the dol lar was paid. The year prior to that o1 cents was paid and the year previous to that 45 cents.
