An order has been issued that a divi- dend of 50 per cent be paid the 16,533 shareholders of the York Loan Saving Co., who have not yet sent in any claim to the amount they invested in .it. It is in reference to these negligent shareholders and to these alone that the order applies. There is the sum of $125,124.65 in the bank waiting for these people to pick it up. There is still $50,000 of the second dividend checks which went out on December 1, 1911, uncashed. The total dividend was $740,000. In spite of the efforts the liquidator is making to get the shareholders to take their money, it locks probable that there will be a large sum undistributed. Considering the proportion of the claims of the 16,543 silent shareholders that will forof any be distributed wa t n y address, there will probably be $100,000 Unclaimed in the liquidation. It will be far the lawmakers to decide whether thin shall swell the coffers of the crown or whether it shall go to recompense the shareholders. So far the share - holders have received 50 per cent. The next dividend will be a final one. It may not come before a couple of years and the amount is uncertain. The Divorce Mania in Detroit. A Detroit dispatch said: The grow- ing list of applications for divorce, which is now so great that it has act- ually clogged the Detroit courts, is attracting the serious attention of the clergy of all denominatios in the city, and a movement will shortly be launch- ed to lessen the increasing number of divorces. Statistical records show that only six other Cities in the United States have a worse divorce record than Detroit. Here there is an average of one divorce for every nine marriages, and 1 d last year more than one thousan divorces were granted, while yearly applications for seperations or divorce average five thousand. On an average nine divorces are granted every day he Michigan. c• e,° -
