MANNING NOT IN
WAY OF NEW BUNK
By Time Directorate of German-American
Is Completed
Experts to Be Withdrawn.
BANK OPENS NEXT WEEK
District Attorney I) oca Jfot Propose
to Hinder Merger With Oregon
Trust or to Delay Depositors
Getting Their Money.
Another supposed obstacle in the way
of the reopening of the Orcson Trust &
Savings Bank was removed yesterday
when District Attorney Manning made
the statement that he would not permit
his investigation to delay the consumma
tion of the merger of the Oregon Trust
and German-American banks. He de
clares that the moment the directorate of
the new bank Is completed he will with
draw his experts from the Oregon Trust's
quarters and not hinder the bank's re
opening for a moment.
This means that the new German
American Bank should open for business
In the quarters of the old Oregon Trust
& Savings Bank not later than the middle
of next week. Directors will unduobtedly
be selected, in time for their names to be
submitted to Judgo Gantenbeln for his
approval tomorrow. "When that is done
and the contracts signed by the new di
rectorate and Receiver Devlin, the doors
of the new German-American Bank will
reopen,
"I am rushing my investigation s rap
Idly as possible," said Mr. Manning.
"The very day that I receive notice from
Mr. Reed that the. new board of directors
of the German-American Bank Is ready
for the court's approval I will withdraw
my experts. My only object Is to sceure
for the depositors their money. I have
not at any time stood in the way of the
reorganization, but have assisted It In
every way possible. I deferred investi
gation at the earnest solicitation of those
In charge of the reorganization and of
the depositors. This is the first oppor
tunity that I have had to make an In
vestigation, but I do not propose that It
shall stand In the way of the merger
and hinder the depositors in getting their
money."
President Heed Pleased.
When shown the statement of Mr.
Manning, S. G. Reed, who will be presi
dent of the German-American Bank, said
that official's action would greatly hasten
the reopening of the bank. He said he
would select directors at once, and
would probably submit his list to the
court tomorrow. Upon the approval of
Judge Gantenbein being given the direc
torate, the bank will be in a position to
open at once.
Other preliminaries practically have
been completed. Mr. Reed was busy yes
terday preparing the contract to be
signed by the new directorate and Re
ceiver Devlin, providing for the carrying
out of the terms of the merger, as set
forth In the court's order. This docu
ment may possibly be signed by to
morrow night or Monday morning. In
that event the bank will open the first
of next week.
Mr. Reed has provided himself with a
list of 20 prominent business men of the
city from which he is selecting his di
rectorate. There will be no trouble In
choosing seven names satisfactory to the
court from this list.
Receiver Dovlln threatens to bring suit
against the United Railways Company
to force it to return to the bank its
share of 46 per cent of the stock and
bonds of the railway corporation, which
the bank owns. These securities, it is
charged, are hold by Herman Witten
berg, who is the head, front and center
of the United Railways. It Is said they
were turned over to Mr. Wittenberg the
day before the Oregon Trust & Savings
Bank closed by President Moore, when
that official was flurried by the critical
condition of the bank, and thought he
was acting tor the best interests of the
Institution In giving up the securities.
At that time the bank was trustee for the
United Railways.
Must Kepay Interest.
These securities were in part collateral
for a loan of $25,000 made to Mr. Witten
berg, with which he purchased his in
terest in, the United Railways. Interest
coupons on the bonds, amounting to $750,
whicn are said to have been clipped, will
also be demanded.
Mr. Wittenberg was out of the city yes
terday, but it is understood he expects
to comply with ther receiver's demands,
an has already secured claims of de
positors in the closed bank that will offset
the $25,000 for which he is liable.
Mr. Wittenberg is said to have taken
President Moore unawares th dnv the
bank failed, when he came in greatly
excited, according to Mr. Moore, and
asked that the Interests of Mr. Moore and
Mr. Lytle in the United Railways be as
signed to him, else the railway project
would fail. Mr. Moore granted his re
quest, but it is not believed that this as
signment will affect the title to the three
sixths of the 92 per cent of the syndicate
slock of the United Railways, which is
said to be the property of the bank.
Title to this Interest in the United Rail
ways was acquired through the wish of
the bank officials to oblige their friends
and finance the railway project. When
the United Railways was driving on the
rocks and the Southern California pro
moters could not handle it, it seemed that
the company's bond, deposited with the
city, would be sacrificed. At this time
Louis J. Wilde and W. Cooper Morris
were employed to go to Southern Cali
fornia to take up the stocks and bonds
of the company in the hands of tike. Cali
fomians. For this service the two were
to be paid $25,000. They did so and
brought back the securities In their
traveling bags, but they did not get the
323,000.
Syndicate of Six. t
This was at the time that a syndicate
of .six men, under the management of
Herman Wittenberg, was formed. Each
was to put In $25,000 and the $50,000 left
after the purchase of the stocks and
bonds was to be used In building the road.
The Southern California holders were
paid $100,000. The payment of the $25,000
was to entitle each member of the six
to take $25,000 In bonds and one-sixth of
the 92 per cent of the $3,000,000 stock In
the project. The rest of the bonds were
to be left with the bank and sold to raise
money for further construction.
Money advanced to the bank was to be
secured by securities and collateral de
posited. The men in the syndicate were
Herman Wittenberg, W. Cooper Morris.
W. H. Moore. J. M. Healy, B. E. Lytle
and the remaining sixth was to have been
held by C. H Loss and C. 11. McBrlde,
nf California, but they failed to come into
the deal.
The bank was trustee for the company
up to the time Mr. Wittenberg is said to
have taken the securities and collateral
out of the hands of President Moore, thus
leaving the bank with nothing to show for
tho money it had advanced to the United
Railways. In addition to the securities
and collateral Mr. Wittenberg will be
asked to replace with the bank, there is
an overdraft of $19,000 on the construc
tion account of the United Railways that
must be made good.
LINE UP AS "SUGGESTED"
Democrats at Tacoma Act on Con
vention Indorsement.
TACOMA, Wash.. Feb. S. (Special.)
The whole slate of Democratic can
didates this afternoon filed declarations
of candidacy with the City Clerk, as
"suggested" by the recent Democratic
city convention, with one exception. He
also filed, but not In accord with the
other "suggestions." L. F. Ball, who
had not been "suggested" by the con
vention, named himself with the ticket
as candidate for the Council from the
Fifth Ward.
J. H. Pierenecle, secretary of the
Democratic city central committee, says
he knew nothing of Mr. Ball's candi
dacy and attributed no especial aignifl
oance to It. But to politicians generally
the double filing has a significance. It
shows that there are two factions of
Democrats. This Is further made ap
parent by the story which is gaining
wide circulation that J. J. Anderson,
who opposes the present city admin
istration, will file a declaration of can
didacy for Mayor tomorrow.

FREE TO ACT FOR SHIPPERS
West Renounced Candidacy in Order
to Be Unhampered.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 6. (Special.) In an
interview a few days ago. Railroad Com
missioner West declared that he will not
be a candidate for re-election when his
present term expires in 1310. This an
nouncement occasioned considerable sur
prise among West's friends here, for the
position is not only one of honor and op
portunity for useful work, but is fairly
remunerative, the salary being $4000 a
year. Quite naturally West's friends
have been Inquiring the reason for his
decision.
To his close friends Mr. West has ex
plained that in his position as a Railroad
Commissioner it has frequently been nec
essary for him to be aggressively active
In securing shippers and passengers fair
treatment from the railroad companies,
and that representatives of the railroad
companies have charged him with "play
ing to the galleries" for the purpose of
making re-election sure. Mr. West says
that by determining at this time not to
be again a candidate for the position, he
not only removes any possible temptation
to consider his own personal interests,
but also deprives the railroad companies
of the chance to accuse him of acting
from Improver motives.
West's record in the office of State Land
Agent, where he uncovered the state land
frauds and where he brought order out
of sc chaotic condition, together with his
active work on the Railroad Commission,
has won him an enviable place In public
opinion.

GARDNER ISWARNED
Tongues of Fire Fanatics Cite
Judge Frazer's Fate.
CALL DOWN GOD'S WRATH
Order Superintendent of Aid Society
to Return Edna Slingerland to
Her Foster-parents or Suf
fer the Consequences.
Because he had a part in the placing
of little Edna Slingerland beyond the
reach of John Slingerland, her foster
parent, who Is a follower of the Tongues
of Fire cult. Superintendent Gardner, of
the Boys & Girls' Aid Society, is threat
ened with a judgment of the Almighty,
Just as was Judge Frazer Immediately
after he gave the little girl into the cus
tody of a reputable farmer's family.
Slingerland took pains to telephone Su
perintendent Gardner and to ask if he
had received the warning, and what he
intended to do. As Mr. Gardner was not
at home at that time, Slingerland did not
receive an answer.
The letter of warning purports to have
been written by Emma Barton, who fig
ured prominently in the Slingerland case
when it was on trial. The letter says
that Judge Frazer's death was a judg
ment from God, and that unless Edna
Slingerland Is returned to Slingerland at
once, Mr. Gardner will meet a like fate.
The letter is dated January 20, and in
part reads:
"Please bear in mind that I say God
commands you to return Edna to her
parents. Judge Frazer took her from a
people that are true Christians, and
their life given up to God, and because
they were raising her for Jesus, and
Jesus only, the devils In the form of
men laid their hands on her and took her
from her , Christian home and Christian
parent.
"A message to you from God, Mr. Gard
ner. Please do not do as Judge Frazer
did, to have no ear for the message given
you by God's people and wake up to the
fate of Judge Frazer by the hand of Al
mighty God.
"Mr. Gardner, I have, a letter in my
possession, written by one of God's serv
ants, whom God told to write and send
to Judge Frazer, warning Mr. Frazer
what God would do to him if he did not
return Edna to her parents. And as' Mr.
Frazer refused to comply with the wishes
of God through his servant, God has done
exactly by Mr. Frazer as he said he
would do. And I am commanded by God
to copy the letter and send to you with
this one, as a warning to you
"Mrs. Emma Barton, 814 Holladay ave
nue." The warning to Judge Frazer above re
ferred to was written by J. A. Bnrrowes,
and is enclosed to Mr. Gardner. It closes
as follows:
"And every one that seeth or readeth
this warning, as well as you, that layeth
his hand or tongue upon this our Father's
work, or any one of God's chosen ones,
great or small, God's anger and judg
ment and vengeance shall fall upon their
own heads suddenly. And the quicker
that you release and take off from the
broken hearts the bonds that you are
now compelling these people and families
and friends to submit under your wicked
ness of God's Innocent people, the sooner
shall Father lift wrathful-- hands from
you, and your anger is great. As I am
about to close this epistle to you. Father
speaks once more unto me, and says
these words. He wants you to return
little Edna Slingerland to her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Slingerland.i and do it Im
mediately, and never lay your hands on
his anointed again. Never, do you un
derstand? "This is a message from God Almighty.
Understand it.
"Written by J. A. Burrowes to Judge
Frazer."

Superintendent of Asylum Talks of
Thaw's Chance of Liberty.
MATTEAWAN, N. Y., Feb. 6. Dr.
Lamb, superintendent of the State Hos
pital for the Criminal Insane, said to
day that, if after SO days or so It is
his belief that Harry K. Thaw is sane,
it will be within the province of the
hospital authorities' so to certify to
the court and recommend hia release.
A commission in lunacy or other pro
ceedings would not be necessary, he
declared.
The physicians at the Institution are
not making observation of Thaw as
yet, as they feel that he has not re
covered from, the excitement caused
by his recent trial for the murder of
Stanford White. He is considered a
model prisoner by the physicians and
owing to his good behavior he is al
lowed certain special privileges.
Dr. Britton D. Evans, the alienist,
and A. Russell Peabody, of counsel for
Thaw, today visited the patient. Be
fore seeing Thaw the visitor had a
half-hour's conversation with Dr.
Lamb. Dr. Evans said he did not come
to Matteawan to make an examination
of Thaw, but merely because the
patient appeared to be cheered up by
his visits.
That there Is friction among Thaw's
counsel over the question of whether
an attempt to have him released shall
or shall not be made is denied, and it
is eal that Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, wife
of the patient, has become reconciled
to Thaw's remaining in the hospital
for the present. It Is said also that it
Is unlikely that the members of Thaw's
family will visit him frequently at
Matteawan.

cent of Government money was

ably in debt when he left Tacoma, but
this Is a personal matter. Mrs. Liston
and Colonel J. J. Anderson, attorney
for Liston, believe he has committed
suicide.
Liston told his wife' two years ago
that he feared he was losing his mind,

SPLENDID HOME RECIPE
PRF-SCRIPTIOX WHICH ELDER
LY PEOPLE SHOULD VALUE.
Promptly Relieves Kidney Troubles
and Rheumatism Can Be
Mixed at Home.
The great majority of men and wom
en at the age of 60 yesjrs begin to feel
the first signs of advancing age in
some form of kidney trouble and blad
der weakness. Few are entirely free
from that torturous disease, rheuma
tism, which is not a disease in Itself,
but a symptom of deranged function
of the kidneys which have become
clogged and sluggish, failing In their
duty of sifting and straining the pol
Ronous waste matter, uric acid, eto.,
from the blood, permitting it to re
main and decompose, settling about the
joints and muscles, causing intense
pain and suffering.
The bladder, however, causes the old
folks the most annoyance, especially
at night and early morning.
A noted authority in a recent article
stated that he has wonderful success
with the old-time "vegetable treat
ment." He states: "Of sixteen cases of
bladder troubles and rheumatism which
have been treated with this treatment
only one very complicated case failed
to fully yield to its remarkable Influ
ence. It is the most harmless treat
ment I have ever found to clean the
system of rheumatic poisons; remove
irritation of the bladder and relieve
urinary difficulties of the old people.
It is a true vitalizing tonic to the en
tire kidney and urinary structure, re
invigorating the entire system."
What he terms "old vegetable treat
ment" consists of the following simple
prescription, the ingredients of which
can be obtained from any good, phar
macy at small cost: Compound Kargon.
one ounce; Fluid Extract Dandelion,
one-half ounce: Compound Syrup Sar
saparilla, three ounces. Shake well in
a bottle and take in teaspoonful doses
after each meal and upon going to bed,
also drink rtlentv of water.
This prescription, though simple. Is
always effective in the diseases and af
flictions of the kidneys and bladder.
