In compliance with Judge Breen's re-
quest for a prompt report on the affairs
Of the Eureka County Bank, Receiver
Reynolds this (Satarday) morning filed
his first report. The Receivers report.
which will be published in the SENTINEL

order OF the Court. This sum is ex-
elusive of the sum OF s905l. 40. which it
is claimed by A. @. Florio belongs to
him and is not an asset Of the bank. as
the sun, il is claimed, was simply col
lected by the bank for him as his agent.
Mr.. Florio has commenced q suit against
Receiver Reynolds for the amount in
dispute, and in order to prevent legal
complications which might interfere
with the payment of q dividend, it was
thought better by the Receivers at
torney, Chas. b. Henderson. to lay aside

passed upon the merits Of the case.
The prompt declaration and payment
of a dividend is to be highly commended
and is in accordance with the promise
of Judge Breen and Mr.. Henderson that
no time would be lost in distributing to
depositors the assets. as they were COL
lected.
The distribution of this large sum
will relieve the financial situation ex-
isting in Eureka since the closing Of the
bank.
The Court made an order requiring
the Receiver to file a monthly statement
of the banks affairs, not later than the
fifteenth Of each month. The next re-
port will contain q full statement Of all
debts, credits and offsets, aud will af-
ford some clue to the sum which it lie
expected will be finally distributed to
depositors.
