In hla Initial report to United States
Budge Wolverton, completed yesterday, R.
6. Howard, Jr., receiver of the Title Guar
antee & Trust Company, recommends an
jrdijr of the court directing the payment
of a 10 per cent dividend and the liquida
tion of the claims of all depositors
"amounting to $25 or less. The report will
e fllnd in the Federal Court this week
and an order complying with the recom
mendations of Receiver Howard is ex
pected as soon as JudRe Wolverton has
an opportunity to examine the report. W.
C. Bristol and Williams. Wood & LJnthl
cum are attorneys for Receiver Howard.
The total amount .of the claims pre
sented and allowed, and on which a divi
dend Is properly payable, aeereffate II,
746,729.711, and there Is cash on hand to
the amount of H87.499.34. The time for fil
ing claims against the defunct bank ex
pired July 6. and since that date several
of the delinquent creditors have been
submitting their claims. Under the re
ceivership, they will not share in the dlvl
Aend that has been recommended, but they
are all protected under the guarantee of
!W. M. Ijadd, who has agreed to redeem
the claims of all depositors for $500 or
less In two years, and claims for more
han $500 In three years, if the assets of
the bank prove Insufficient to complete
the liquidation.
However, Receiver Howard feels confi
dent that if he is able to dispose of the
various assets of the property at reason
able values, he will be able, under the
receivership, to pay all claims in full. ?
Expenses of Receiverships Paid.
The amount of cash on hand would be
larger but for the fact that It has been
necessary to pay the expenses of the two
preceding receiverships by George H. Hill
and E. C. Mears, covering the period from
November 6, 1907, to January 19, 1908, from
the receipts of the property. Furthermore,
(Receiver noward has paid out approxi
mately $80,000 of trust funds since assum
ing the receivership In January.
Receiver Howard further reports that
proceedings are pending in the courts by
which the Indebtedness of the Colonial
Investment Company and the Portland
'Development Company, auxiliary com
panies to the defunct oank, possibly may
lie liquidated, although the receiver at the
date of his report confessed that ho was
unable to indicate to what extent. Among
the major assets of the bank to be dis
posed of are the property ol the Oregon
(Land & Water Company and the building
at Second and Washington streets, owned
by the Commercial Trust Company and
which is Included In the assets of the
toank.
When the dividend has been declared,
depositors will be required to bring their
deposit books as an evidence of debt In
order to receive their share of the bank's
assets as distributed. The report consists
of S3 typewritten pages.
About 4800 Claims Presented.

Bhows that of a total of 7500 claims
against the bank, aggregating $1,804,

Shepherd Bryan's Call to In
dependent Sheep.
TRIES TO COAX THEM IN
Says They Want What Democracy
Orrers, but Vote for Hisgen Will
Only Help Taft Educated
Mule His Mascot.
FAIR VIEW, Lincoln, Neb., July 30.
Although the heat was oppressive at
Fairview this morning, Mr. Bryan was
early in his office and at work. After
reading the platform adopted by the In
dependence party In Chicago, be gave out
the following statement:
'It contains a number of planks which
are Identical with, or substantially simi
lar, to the planks of the Democratic
platform. For instance, it favors the
election of Senators by direct vote, as
the Democratic platform does. Its tariff
plank Is quite like our tariff plank; its
plank on the trusts, while opposing pri
vate monopoly. Is not so specific as ours;
Its railroad plank does not differ much
from ours; its plank on Asiatic Immigra
tion Is quite similar, and its labor plank,
like ours, contains a 'declaration In favor
of trial by Jury, and In regard to the ex
emption of labor organizations from the
operation of anti-trust laws. Like our
platform. It condemns the extravagance
of the Republican party and demands
greater economy. It does not advocate,
however, the establishment of a depart
ment of labor, with a secretary In the
Cabinet; it does not oppose Imperialism,
which has been used to justify the In
crease in our standing Army, and its
plank as to publicity of campaign contri
butions is not nearly so strong as ours.
Question for Independents.
'The question that must confront the
member of the Independence party Is
this: Will he assist In the defeat of
the Democratic party, which stands for
so much that he favors, merely because
he cannot get all that he would like?
Either the Democratic party or the
Republican party will win, and the voter
who, preferring the Democratic platform
to the Republican platform, joins with
the Independence party, merely assists
the Republican party, and thus defeats
several of the reforms in which he is In
terested.
"Take, for Instance, the plank in
favor of the election of Senators by
the people. The Democratic party has
indorsed that reform in three cam
paigns; the Republican convention de
feated the proposition by an overwhelm
ing vote. If the Democratic party suc
ceeds, its members are pledged to this
reform. The Republican party is not
pledged to It, and the Republican can
didate has gone no farther than to say
that he is personally Inclined toward it.
This reform is necessary before any oth
er Federal reform can be secured. Is
not the Independent voter justified In
helping the Democratic party to secure
this reform?
"So, In regard to the labor ques
tion. The Democratic party Is in
favor of remedies demanded by wage-
earners, and a wage-earner who votes
with the Independence party simply de
feats the reforms in which he is inter
ested. The same argument might be
made In regard to those who favor the
tariff reform, the extermination of the
principle of private monopoly -and the
remedy of other evils which have grown
up under Republican administration. The
question is not whether one can get all
the reforms that he wants, but how he
can get the most reforms. The Demo
cratic party offers him the best oppor
tunity to secure that which is obtainable
at this time."
In regard to the open letter of vic
tor Rosewater to Mr. Brysn which ap
peared In this morning's papers, Mr.
Bryan and his brother-in-law, Mr. Al
len, who Is mentioned in the letter, held
a conference this morning, and Mr.
Bryan treated the matter very lightly.
The actual preparation of the speech
of acceptance was begun by Mr. Bryan
today. Among the notable visitors who
will be present on the day of the notifi
cation will be John W. Kern, of In
diana, the Democratic Vice-Persidential
nominee. At the conclusion of the ex
ercises, Mr. Bryan will receive the no
tification committee and several dis
tinguished guests at Fairview. where
supper will be served on the lawn.
Unlike his distinguished opponent,
who refused to accept an elephant as a
mascot, Mr. Bryan today. In response
to a letter from the Agricultural So
ciety of Minnesota, telegraphed that he
would be delighted to avail himself ot
their offer to send him an "educated"
mule as a mascot. "He is said to un
derstand the habits of the elephant."
declared Mr. Bryan with a twinkle of
the eye, "and for that reason, among
others, I shall accept him."
The sweltering heat did not deter a
number of persons from going out to
Fairview and paying their respects to
the Democratic candidate. All were
cordially received and Mr. Bryan him
self, although, busily engaged In draft
ing bis speech, took, time to conduct
" ..IllJUcCjei
his visitors through bis home and show
them his priceless collection of art
treasures gathered during his trip
around the world.
Johnson on Bryan Board.
ST. PAUL, July SO. Frank A. Day,
private secretary to Governor Johnson,
has received word from the governor
that he has accepted W. J. Bryan's In
vitation to act as a member of an ad
visory committee of 15 in the Presi
dential campaign.
T. B. WILCOX BUYS CORNER
(Continued from First Pace.)
valuable corner, the adjustment of
these leases will have an important
part. A proposal has been made the
occupants of the old buildings to seek
temporary quarters elsewhere on what
ks considered a fair and reasonable
agreement. It has been suggested to
them that In case they will terminate
the existing leases the new owner of
the ground will at once begin arrange
ments for the erection of a strictly
modern office building pn the site, and
that they shall be given preference, to
a certain extent, In obtaining quarters
in the new building when it Is com
pleted. With an eight or ten-story
building above them, it is pointed out
that tenants would have a trade right
at hand to draw from in addition to
having modern store rooms to occupy
in the very, midst of the best business
district of the city.
Action ot tenants In the case of the
Judge Mallory building on Stark street
opposite the Chamber of Commerce is
cited to indicate how tenants may re
tard progress In building up the city
with high-class structures, for In that
case a proposed Improvement had to
be postponed until the expiration of
leases on account of unreasonable de
mands of some of the tenants.
Second Purchase by Mr. Wilcox.
The purchase of this corner by Mr.
Wilcox again emphasizes his belief in
the future of Portland. His purchase
of the southeast corner, 100x100, at
Seventh and Stark, and his present in
vestment were made after several other
locations were presented to him by Mr.
Henry, and his selection of the two
pieces is regarded in the realty trade
as about the best that could have been
made for the character of improve
ments intended." As has been an
nounced already, the Stark-street site
is to be occupied by a hotel building,
which is to be leased by Philip
Metschan.
On the site just purchased it Is Mr.
Wilcox's - intention to erect an office
building . of either eight or ten stories,
woTk on which will start as soon as the
matter of leases can be adjusted. Un
officially it is said the structure will cost
from J150.000 to J20O,O0O, but of that noth
ing exact can now be known, nor until
plans have been considered. Of one thing
there is no doubt expressed by those in
the confidence of Mr. Wilcox and by
himself, that the improvement will be
of a character commensurate with the
requirements of the location.
Fine Buildings on Sixth.
Sixth street now has some of the prin
cipal buildings in the city already
erected or under way. To the south are
the Y. M. ' C. A. at Taylor street: the
Portland Hotel at Morrison; the Post
office; the Marquam building and theater
at Morrison: The Oregonian at Alder;
the Meier-Frank Company, under course
of construction at Alder; the uias, vvori
man King annex, near Washington;
the Oregon Trust at Washington; the
Ralelirh at Washington; the Fen ton at
Oak; the Wells-Fargo at Oak, and the
Commonwealth at Ankeny. Several large
warehouse buildings are farmer norm,
and at the foot of the street Is located
the Union station. The site at Sixth and
Washington has been owned by the
Labbes since 18T2, the corner having been
purchased at that time from Robert King.
The orlce of J3B0.000 for the single lot
Is the highest ever paid for Portland
realty. As the property extends 100 feet
on Washington street, the valuation is
12500 a front foot. Frontage, however,
is usually figured . on property 100 feet
deep, whereas this property has a depth
of only 60 feet. The price paid by Mr.
Wilcox Is much higher relatively than
that paid by OShea Brothers to the
Ladd estate for the Olds, Wortman &
King property at the southwest corner
of Fifth and Washington. The con
sideration la this deal was J350.O00. The
price was, therefore, $3500 a front foot,
but this property has the full depth of
100 feet and In addition a building valued
approximately at $80,000. The Improve
ments on the lot bought by Mr. Wilcox
are practically worthless.
Effect on Realty Market.
It Is contended by leading realty men,
and Is proved by trade statistics, realty
values here are below those ot any city
of Its size and importance in the country.
For that and similar reasons outside cap
ital is attracted to this city for invest
ment and the Impetus given the market
by recent transactions by local men of
means Is regarded by the trade with
much satisfaction.
A feature ot the recent deals through
C. K. Henry ft Son is- that the sites
handled, while of a character Involving
large sums of money, had but Inferior
Improvements. In each case these old
buildings are to be razed to make room
for fine large buildings. One interested
capitalist said last night: "Between
Henry working on the inside and alleged
firebugs on the outside of the business
district it will not be long before the
old shacks around town will be a thing
of the past, and old-timers will have
trouble In recognlaing the new city that
has taken the place of the old one."

Possible Side Attraction
Country Club Meet.
at
MANY FEATURES OFFERED
Jfo Lack of Amusement Concessions
to Be Had Colonel R. Iv. Har
rlman to Be Starting'
Judge of Races.
At the meeting of the amusement
committee of the Country Club and
Livestock Association, yesterday after
noon, It was decided that only one or
two spectacular attractions, outside of
the regular races and livestock exhib
its, should be Included in the week's
programme.
Chairman Julius L. Meier suggested
that negotiations be opened at once
with some airship performer, either
Lincoln Beachey, who is well known in
Portland, or Strobel, who has a con
tract with the Interstate Fair at Spo
kane next Fall. Dr. Emmett Drake
thought that other attractions should
be added, and suggested a captive
balloon.
Any number of concessions were of
fered to the committee. Among them
were King Royal. This horse is one of
the most remarkable performers ever
seen inside or outside a circus ring. He
does nine distinct gaits, lies down,
kisses his mistress, and finally con
cludes his act with the Cakewalk,
something no other horse has ever
done.
Another strong drawing card offered
was Miss Lillian Hoffman In her Ro
man standing exhibition. This plucky
little woman will negotiate the mile
track standing on one or the-, other
of her trained mounts, and she has
established many new records. Her
sole object In coming West Is to make
a snowing so that she may locate
here and bring to the Pacific North
west a string of fancy performers
which she lias trained In the East.
Donkey and Elephant Race.
. Another offering made was that of
Dewey, who did the "great donkey
and clown act with Ringllngs' Circus
four years." K. L. Bernard, who is
handling these various entries, says
that this animal will be able to show
his heels to any other Jack in the
Pacltlc Northwest, and, in addition to
this, Mr. Bernard says that he can
secure on a week's notice an elephant
to compete with the jack bo that the
race between the elephant and the jack
may oe neid. Both Republican and
Dempcratic leaders have taken Interest
In the novel event, but Mr. Bernard's
offer Is the first definite one which
would make it possible for the G. O.
P. and the Democrats to have any
thing like a fair race In Oregon at the
coming National stock show.
Several other concessions were con
sidered at the meeting, but It was de
cided to postpone action on them until
the meeting ot.- the directors of the
country Club and Livestock Asocla
tlon, which will be held next Monday
anernoon, at wmcn time all questions
relating to concessions will be dls
posed of.
The Country Club and Livestock
Association feels that It Is particularly
fortunate in securing the services of
colonel R. L. Harriman, of Bunceton
MO., as the starting: Judere for lht
week's races to be held here the week
of September 21-2. Harriman is
Known au over the Coast and. in addl
tlon to acting as the starter for the
local races, he will also conduct the
combination sale, which Is to he a most
J Important adjunct to the races and
stock snow. colonel Harriman will
also act as starting Judge at the race
meet at Salem the week before the
i-acinc national to be held here.
Horsemen Go to Hillsboro.
Several special cars have been en
gaged to carry the Portland horsemen
over to Htlisboro for the "try-out"
meet, to be held there this afternoon
and tomorrow. Fully 200 hnmpmen
will either go over by train, run over
In automobiles or drive over with their
own horses to witness the racing
events there today and tomorrow.
Especial Interest is manifest because
all of the contestants at Hlllsbore are
entered In the various events to be
run off here, and this will give the
ursi ime on tnese contenders.

AIRSHIP
MAY
OM
Special Session May Be Held To
night in Order That Jury May
Retire for Verdict This
Week.
United States Judge Wolverton yester
day denied the application of counsel for
the defense for a non-suit and a directed'
verdict in the Booth-Singleton conspiracy
case. Both Bides having rested, final ar
guments will be begun this morning, and
it Is probable that the case will go to the
Jury tomorrow afternoon. It Is possible
the court will hold a session tonight fur
ther to expedite the conclusion of the' case
this week.
When court convened yesterday counsel
for the defense filed a joint motion for
a non-suit as to all three defendants and
a separate motion for an Instructed ver
dict In behalf of each of the defendants,
based on an alleged Insufficiency of the
evidence support the charges preferred
In the Indictment. Judge L. R. Webster
and A. i Woodcock, of counsel for the
defense, argued In support of these mo
tions, contending that It was Incumbent
On the Government to prove the exist
ence of the alleged conspiracy and a con
scious participation therein by each of the
defendants within three years prior to the
date the indictment was returned, April,
1905.
Webster Reviews Evidence.
Judge Webster argued that the prosecu
tion had failed In any way to connect
Robert A. Booth with the alleged con
spiracy, except to show that he was pres
ent when Agee tendered to the Booth-
Kelly Lumber Company the deed trans
ferring the land in February, 1904. when the
object of the alleged conspiracy had been
served and the alleged unlawful agree
ment closed.
Counsel further contended that the
prosecution had failed to connect Thomas
E. Singleton with the conspiracy in any
way subsequent to December, 1900, when
he made affidavit as to Agee's residence
and rights to the land In the reservation.
For that reason, it was Insisted, the stat
ute of limitations had run against
Singleton.
As to James Henry Booth, It was main
tained by counsel that as Receiver of the
Roseburg Land Office, Booth merely as
sisted Agee to complete proof of title to
Government land that Agee considered he
was entitled to, and which Booth believed
the applicant had a legal claim to. The
contract of the Booth-Kelly Lumber Com
pany to purchase the land. Insisted Judge
Webster, was a transaction subsequent to
the completion of the alleged conspiracy
oharged in the indictment.
Becker Speaks in Reply.
Tracy C. Becker, for the Government,
resisted the attempt of the defense to
close the case so abruptly, maintaining
that the prosecution had presented suffi
cient evidence, which, when considered
with the law on the subject, was entirely
adequate to warrant the consideration of
the case by the jury. He insisted that the
charge preferred in the Indictment was
broad and in support of nis argument that
the allegations were sufficient, cited nu
merous decisions by the United States Su
preme Court, Including the McKlnley and
Jones-Potter cases. It was contended by
the Government prosecutor that the con
spiracy,, alleged In the Indictment, consti
tuted the offense and tnat it am not de
volve on the Government to show by
what overt acts the object of the con
spiracy was effected.
In denying the motions of the defense,
Judge Wolverton held that the Govern
ment had- Introduced sufficient evidence
In support of the charge recited in the in
dictment that the guilt or Innocence of
the accused should be decided by the Jury
The argument ofopposing counsel on the
motions for an Instructed verdict occupied
the entire session of the court yesterday
