BRYAN, AND THEN A PIC
BUSINESS MAX -OF BALTIMORE
SPEAKS OF PERILS.
Flection of ilie Nebraskan, He De
clares, Will tpset Financial
Markets of Country.
OREGONIAN SEWS BUREAU. Wash
Ington. Sept. 24. Of all the men who
intend to vote for Bryan in November,
there Is probably not one more frank
Jn statlnir his reason than a -wealthy
businraa man of Baltimore, with whom
your correspondent talked a few days
aco. in 1S6 and In 1900 this arentle
man. though a life-long- Democrat, vot
ed for McKlnlcy because he was afraid
rf Fryanism. He was afraid that
Frytn'n election would mean business
disaster. In 1904 he voted for Roose
velt, because he felt that Roosevelt's
'-tion would Insura a continuance of
prosperity. Now he will vote for
Bryan. In response to a question he
told why.
It should be said, by way of explana
tion, that this merchant, during .the
past 13 years of prosperity under Re
publican administrations, made prac
tically every cent he owns today. He
is now sufficiently wealthy to retire
from the active direction of his busi
ness, which has been turned over to
trusted employes. While not one of
Baltimore's wealthiest men, he can
count his million.
"I am going- to vote for Bryan," said
he. "for purely selfish reasons. I feel
as sure now as I did 1! years ago that
Bryan s election will bring on a panic
That Is JUBt what I want. If we have
a panic I will be able to loan my money
at a high rate of interest and. on ample
security, and make more in one year
than I can make out of my business
in ten years. A severe jmnlc would
double my wealth, and, naturally, I
want to double it if I can. That,
frankly. Is why 1 shall vote for Bryan."
And the striking feature of this
declaration Is that It Is absolutely
true; that man meant every word of it.
There may be others, supporting Bryan
for the same reason, but none have
been frank enough to confess it.
BANK PAYS FOR ITS ERROR
Bookkeeper Conflicts Accounts of
Two W. H. Smiths.
OLTMPIA. Wash., Sept. 24. (Special.)
The Supreme Court has affirmed the
judgment for plaintiff In the case of the
old National Bank of Spokane against
the Exchange National Bank, of Coeur
d'Alene, of Idaho.
W. H. Smith deposited $3000 in the Ex
change Bank and indorsed it to C. M.
Sparks, who deposited it in the Old Na
tional Bank. The Exchange Bank had
two depositors named W. H. Smith, and
when the certificate was presented for
payment, discovered that the W. H. Smith
who originally owned the deposit had
overdrawn his account more than $1000,
a mistake having been made by the book
keeper in the accounts of the two Smiths.
The Exchange Bank refused to pay
more on the certificate of deposit than
its face less Smith's overdraft, but the
Superior Court and now the Supreme
Court holds the entire $3000 must be paid.
