Bank News of No Satisfaction.

A communication to The Tribune pub
Usher from Sanborn & Blake, Madison.
attorneys for the receiver Of the col
lapsed bank of this city, dated July %,
1918, reads as follows:
ut is expected that the final dividend
of the Mineral Point matter will be
presented in a short time. We do not
know how much will be declared, as
the detail information is in the hands
of the receiver.
''In regard to the sale of the assets
in the hands of the receiver, the only
things offered for sale were those
which the receiver had not been able
to dispose of in any other way. We
had no expectation that anything would
be offered for the different items. ex-
cept possibly the balance of the claim
againt the Allen estate. That was the
only thing for which any offer has been
made, and the best we have been able
to secure up to the present time is 5000.
We have recommended the acceptance
of this offer by the receiver,
I'VE also accepted an offer of 500
for settlement of the judgment against
Mrs. Parkinson. We have been unable
to discover any property from which
this judgment could be collected, and it
was also offered for sale with the other
assets, but no bids were received for it.
We therefore recommended the accept
ance of the above offer.
The Tribune, in behalf of the beau
tifully left" creditors, would like to
know why the items and things consti-
tuting the assets were not advertised
in itemized form, who are the bidders,
and if the receiver was in Madison at
the time set for receiving bids :? The
information that matters are still lin
the hands of the receiver" can be meas
ured as cheering as you would measure
water in sieve.
