CARNEGIE DIVIDEND
HANGS ON LEBAUDY
His Only Big Preferred Suit
Against Failed Trust
Now.

With the decision Of the Court Of
Appeals that receivers and trustees in
bankruptcy, who had 100000 in the
Carnegie Trust Company when il closed
on January Z. 1911, are not preferred
creditors, depoSitors now find between
them and another dividend only the
claim Of Jacques Lebaudy. self-pro-
claimed Emperor of Sahara To date
they have had 80 per cent of $1,000, 700.
Lebaudy claims that the Carnegie
Trust Company. which he made trustee
for the sale Of his estates I'm France,
sold them at an uncomfortable price,
calculated 10 defraud him, and that IL
owes him Sl100,0O0 for the property
and 100000 damages besides. If he
cannot have the property back, he
wants S2.0OO,000.
George ". Egbert. of the State
Banking Department, who has been in
charge of the affairs Of the trust COM
pany. says the concern owes Lebaudy
$4,000. and that he is an ordinary
and not preferred creditor al that.
To meet this claim, and others now
pending I'M the courts. the whole. total
ling more than S3.00O.00O. the DEPART
ment has IN hand about Si,OOO,0OO,
from which must be deducted counsel
fees. As there have been 900 actions
brought by or against the company,
these charges will be large. But. with
Lebaudy out of the way. there would
be enough left for an additional 10 per
cent dividend
The trust company's receiver says
all Lebaudy, having been the father Of
q child, had TO sell was a life interest.
Lebaudy denies that he has any
progeny.
