BEARS AFRAID TO ATTACK Ilailuay Officials Express More Confidence in Growth of Traffics Possible Exportation of Gold From Xew York. XEW YORK. April H. The announce ment of the Erie financial plan, which was made after the stock market closed on Sat urday, was without effect today unlesa the torpid state, of the trading was influenced by the peculiarities of the announcement. The tone of the official offer implied a threat that If any of the notes were with held, the plan w-ould he allowed to lapse. The alternative would be a receivership. The position offered was sufficiently dedicate to su-crgest a suspension of judgment on the effects until the matter is definitely ad justed, which will b when the old ftes mature on Wednesday. Tha spasmodic jump in prices of stock, on Saturday was accepted as. tn some ort. an expression of opinion on the Erie pJm so far as perfected and this added to th disinclination to ex tend the movement. With the remalni'n? uncertainty over the Erie plan, there wlb the doubt as to how far the effsct on the market of its assumed aueeessj had been exhausted. The bears were timid about attacking the market from fear that final suceees on Wednesday of the effort to secure exchange of the old Krie notes for new would prove a new stimulat ing tendency on the rrmrket. The stock market was held in suspended animation throughout the day as a consequence of these considerations. Operations between three or four traders of the more active class and ir a handful of stocks practically made up the whole market. The price of copper made some recovery In London and the effect was pood on the proup of copper industrial stocks. . Railroad traffic offl rials expressed some increased confidence in the promise- for prowth of traffic, but they had no actual increase in the movement to report. Reports of Winter whent conditions continued favorable with substantial sustaining- effect on prices of stocks. The persistence of the demand upon IvOn don for potd and a renewed decline In the sterling- ex hanpe rate at Paris kept alive discussion of a possible export movement of pi-Id from New York. Foreijtn exchanpe rites here were practically unchanged and the demand for money on time w-as so llpht as to offer slipbt opportunity for placinr funds. . Ponds were irregular. Total sales, $1.1.-vv- Tnlted States 2s registered, declined S pr cent on call. CLOSING HTOCK QUOTATIONS. Cloin(C Sale. Hlrh. Low. Rid.

Receiver Devlin May Pay Him for Telephone Bonds, "With Interest, But Tlwt's All. PORTLAND. April 6. (To the Edi tor.) Tn all tlie explanations marie by tne officers of the German-American Hank fin reply to the criticisms mada on their handling of the assets of the Oregon Trust & Savings Bank. they carefully avoid any allusion to what is on its face a jr la ring: breach of faith with the depositors. When the Oregon Trust & Savin firs Bank closed' last August, the deposi tors found that without their consent tho bank had invested a large part of their money in telephone bonds on which it was unable to realise. These bonds carried with them a bonus of r.O per cnt in stock of the same com panies. The depositors, then, in effect, said: "As our money is in these bonds, we will accept them in settlement of our claims rather than run the risk of losing1 half our money and at the best getting It in driblets spread over sev eral years. At the same time we will trust to the stock bonus to bring us out even and, if we should get more than the face of the bonds and retook combined, it will compensate us for the loss of the use of our money and for having our plans foiled by the bad faith of the bank In Investing it without our consent."' "Witii that idea in mind, we deposi tors subscribed for $S3".000 of tele phone bonds by signing the following paper: Portland. Or.. . 1i0i T. C. Tevltn. Jtaceiver Orecon Trust A Havings Bank.

Tacoma, Wash ington, or the Independent Telephone Com pany of Omabs. Nebraska, or both to said amount, on the baMs of too cents on the dollar in bonds, accompanied b trustee's certificate for the capital stock of either of said companies for half of said amount. i Name) ( Address) (Witness. . The subscription for these telephone bonds by the depositors was the main factor in making possible the winding up of thf old bnnk without loss to any of the depositors who had not already sold their claims at a discount. Mr. Devlin remains receiver and also be comes cashier of the liquidating bank. As .such, he has conflicting duties, one to the depositors of the old bank and the other to the new bank. Having two masters, he chooses the new bank and proceeds to deceive the bond sub scribers into unwittingly giving their stock away. Ho does this by issuing a "bond t-er-tiflcrft specifying that he as trustee hoi ils bonds "in the denomination of $1.1)0. aggregating In face value an amount equal to the face value of this and other like certificates issued against the same and also trustee cor tillcates for the stock .... equal to .50 pt r cent of the amount of satd bonds," which he holds as truster. The certificate goes on to certify thiit is the owner of bonds of the denomination of $100 and a truste certificate stork In an .amount of $.- "all of which arc held In trust nevertheless by the un dersigned and his successors in said trust, subject to the. terms and condi tions set forth on the back of this certificate, hereby referred to and made part hereof." The importance of. the words last quoted is apparent when we referred to thejt! "terms and conditions." The second of these reads as follows; This certificate may at any ttm and at the. option of .ld trustee, be redeemed by live payment to the rcjrlstered owner of the fac value of the bonds for which this certificate is issued with accrued interest; or trie same may be redeemed and cancelled by the delivery to satd owner of the said bonds aud trustee certificate of stock here in described in lieu of which this certificate is Issued. Tn other words, if the bonds reach par and the stock becomes of value, Mr. Devlin, the trustee, has the option of calling in the certificates, paying the face value of the bonds with in terest,, kec-ping the stock and calling tho deal square. He is then free to deliver the stock to Mr. Devlin, cash ier of the German-American Bank. Thus ho is faithful to his new employ er by being faithless to the old one. Mr. Devlin . as receiver, was ordered by the court to carry out the reor ganization agreement, of which the bond snbscription I have quoted was a part. He was therefore in duty bound to give the depositors all they had subscribed for. Tt will lie to tbe'lnterest of the German-American Hank to keep faith with the depositors of the Oregon Trust & Savings Bank, if it expects to XUAVUUStfiS GUILDS. rOBTLAND RT.

About -200 hands are fidgeted. If you place your money in a hank, the hank agrees, we will say, to pay you 4 per cent while your money is in its cus tody. You have often wondered why the hank can pay you for the use of your money. The reason is plain. As soon as your money is depos ited with the bank, the b a n k e r immediately looks around to see where he can re-invest that money to earn more than 4 per cent, so that he can make a profit on .your money. lie in "vests, we will assume, in bonds of the Ocean Shore Railway Com pany. Tie pavs cash for the bonds, that is $92 each. The interest on this investment is -j'W, per cent. After pay ing y o u the 4 per cent promised the hank er nets per cent on your money. Now, you ask, why cannot T buy those Ocean Shore Bonds myself; take ad vantage of the 514 per cent intere'st, and make all the profit myself? You can. -That's exact ly what Ave have been trying to have you un derstand. . Investments in bonds by a banker, using 3'our money, is good business; invest ments in bonds by your self, using your own money, is better busi ness. Bonds are safe, sane and profitable, when backed by the magnificent assets pos sessed by the Ocean Shore Railway Com pany. You can turn the bonds over whenever you like and convert them immediately into cash. Your time deposit in the bank must re main there for the time you promised to leave it. Still better. You can buy Ocean Shore Bonds on easy terms, and be drawing your interest while you are paying for them. See us at once about the advisa bility of buying a few Ocean Shore Bonds.
