MOTES GIVEN FOR STOCK Ex-Presldent Ralston Fails to Re Teal Custody of Promissory Pa pers When Objection Is Made. Jury May Read Papers. "When Judge Gantenbeln adjourned court yesterday afternoon the second witness for the state in the trial of W. Cooper Morris, ex-cashier of the Oregon Trust & Savings Bank, for embezzlement, -was being examined by Special Prosecu tor A. E. Clark. The Judge refused to ftrant a request to lock up the jury for the night. L. O. Ralston, the first president of the toank, was placed upon the stand, being followed by Thomas C. Devlin, who was appointed receiver August 21. 1907. Dep uty District Attorney Fitzgerald con sumed only 25 minutes in making the opening statement for the state, and Judge M. J. Gordon, representing Morris, took only ten minutes. Little Said About Charge. In telling the jury the attitude of the defense. Judge Gordon said very little bout the embezzlement charge. He was In the midst of a statement regarding Xhe solvency of the Oregon Trust bank In August, 1907, when it failed, having Implied that the panic was the cause of ll the trouble, and having said that all depositors were paid, when Attorney Clark arose and said the state would be delighted, if the court would permit it. to go into the entire question of solvency nr insolvency, and to show exactly how "'the depositors got their money, some In telephone bonds, and others after wait ing a long time." Judge Gordon said nothing further re garding the bank's solvency, but re marked that the indictment against Alorrls does not show whose notes were embezzled, and that Morris' note for $o5, COO wa paid in property. "The state is attempting to make .Morris a vicarious sacrifice," he said, cuggestively. W. H. Moore, ex-president of the bank, at in the courtroom with other specta tors, but could hear very little of the statements or the testimony, because of the noise made by the steel riveters on the new Courthouse. It was 3 P. M. when the last juror was examined, and Deputy Fitzgerald began his opening statement. He called attention to the indictment charging the larceny by embezzlement on December 33. 1906, of four notes for $10,000, $2.,ooo. j:s,000 and $900, respectively, and $30,000 In cash. He explained that in 1901 J. O. Ralston, IMorris and a few others organized the Oregon Savings Bank, and opened it in the Marquam building with a capitaliza tion of $100,000, giving promissory notes for the stock instead of cash. Morris, he said, subscribed $25,000. or a fourth of the stock, and gave his note. Moore became . director in 1905, giving his note for J.'W.IOO. Morris gave another note, said Mr. Fitzgerald, for $900. Notes Given for Stock. After this. K. E. Uytle took $25,000 worth of stock at $35,000, giving his note. Jn the meantime, the hank had pur chased Pnget Sound Home Telephone tionds, receiving a bonus of $100 worth of Block for every $100 worth of bonds. "These directors, adepts at frenzied finance," said Mr. Fitzgerald, "reached the acme of their high finance on De cember 15, when they conceived the idea of divesting themselves of all these notes without paying for them. "The notes were charged up on the tooks to loans and discounts. It appeared from the books that the bank had loaned his money to the directors, and had taken their notes. This defendant wrote those notes off the books as though they ad been paid and to balance the books wrote in telephone stock which already belonged to the bank." Two items of J2S.00O each appear in the loans and discounts account. Morris con verted one of these items into cash In lAugust, and put it in an envelope in the paying teller's cage, and the next day did the same with the other item. This V).000 Item was carried along thus for months. On December 15 it disappeared, nd a fictitious entry made to balance. The directors also took $100,000 in worth less telephone stock, declared it worth JSO.0O0. and with it crtated a surplus. Ralston's testimony was that he was president of the bank from the Spring of 3904 'to September 1905. The first directors were. Morris, J. K. Im-aster. William Ralston, his father, and himself. Custody pf Notes Questioned. He 6ld the Morris note was still in the tank when he resigned the presidency. lAttomey Clark asked what officer had immediate custody of the notes. and Judge Gordon objected, the question being withdrawn. Ralston said his note was returned to him when he resigned. The stock certificates were attached to the notes as collateral, he said, and the stock could not be removed from the bank until the notea were paid. "We supposed it would be as well to have this money in notes this way as to loan it to someone else," he said. He raid he secured a premium of 10 per cent on his fstock when lie resigned, selling out to Moore. The bank simply had another note for the stock, he said. He was asked whether the bank ever secured anything more substantial than this for the stock, and said he didn't know. When court Bdjourned Attorney t'lark was introduc ing the books and records of the bank. Judge Gantenbeln declined to instruct the Jury not to read the newspapers. A request from counsel thar the jury be kept locked up every night throughout the trial was also denied. The state's attorney drew out from J. f. Hill, one of the Jurors, that he served with Attorney Seneca Fonts, representing Morris, in the Spanish-American War, and that he voted for him when he ran for Municipal Judge. Hill Is a real estate man. A. W. Balsiger, another Juror, is a grocer at St. Johns. He was formerly at White Salmon. Wash. J. w. Talbot, still another.

Bristol brought a $40"0 damage suit in the Circuit Court yesterday morning, charging Charles M. Meredith and A. D. Moodie with having cut off.-limbs of the trees In front of hie home at Twenty-second and Love joy streets,, to permit the passage of a house they were moving. Attorney John F. Logan, who repre sents Bristol, characterizes it as an act of vandalism, - and the complaint itself alleges that it was done -maliciously and clandestinely after Mr. Bristol had been careful to call the attention of the house movers to the fact that- the house was scraping his trees and shrubs. It was a week ago yesterday, says Mr. Bristol, that Mr. Meredith's bouse waa being moved along the street In front of his home. He saw that It would not go up the street without bruising the trees, or being turned, he alleges, and re quested Moodie to have his men turn the -building about. Instead of that, he says they cut oft the limbs of the trees. Attorneys I. N. Smith and John. H, Stevenson appear with Mr. Logan in the case.

S. does; and it is the only medicine that absolutely and thoroughly cleanses the circulation of every particle of the germs and virus of the disease. Mercury, Potash, and other strong min erals are often used in the hope that such powerful treatment will kill the germs, but this can not be done, and when the mineral medicines are left off the trouble always returns with its aggravating symptoms of ulcerated mouth and throat, skin eruptions, falling hair, yellow skin splotches, swollen glands, and often run ning sores. The ability of S. S. S. to cure Contagious Blood Poison comes front its unfailing blood-purifying properties.
