Little of a sensational nature has iranspired during the week regard ing the failure of the Washington Alaska bank, and matters remain in much the same shape as they did a week ago. Of most importance to the depoSitors is the fact that today dividend amounting 10 162s pr cent. of their accounts will be paid.
 On Tuesday. in answer to an in quiry the Dexter Horton bank wired that the Washington-Alaska bank interest in the Gold Bar stock Is valued at s300,000 and the same day McCOrd, Barnette's attorney in Seat tle, wired that the captain had for Warded from Los Angeles the sum f $50.o00 which would be paid over 10 the credit cf the Washington Alaska on certain conditions.
 The writ of assistance asked for by the receivers from the court was effective in getting the S1o1.- oop shipped over the trail seized, at Cordova. and 1t is more than probable that this sum will be de voted to the payment or further dividends to the depositors. Some action on the part of the Dexter Horton bank may possibly prevent this but ii does not seem at all likely at this time.
 Captain Barnette. at Los Angeles. was h ard from on Thursday. when he was reported to have said in an

That sum was later reduced to $1i1 ,iO7.S9. If the cashier had sent S75.O0O on December 15, n trouble would have occurred.
