Trial of Ice Trua King Shows He
I'sed Beardless Youth as Me
dium Through Which to
Loot the Bank.
NEW YORK. Oct. lf.-A towheaded
youtli of 1?. until recently a 12 a week
vi-rk In a brokers office. wa the star
witness today at the trial in the cr.minat
branch of the United States Court of
diaries t". Morse, financial man and
promoter, who. with Alfred H. Curtis
ex-president of the National Bank of
North America, is chanced with having
Tiolated the National banklnR laws.
In the testimony of Edward P. Moxey,
a Government bank examiner, it had been
revealed that a person named Leslie
E Whltlns had been one of the heaviest
borrowers from the. National Bank of
North America, at one time owing the
Institution as much as R10.O0O. Hardly a
week went by In the year 1907. the testi
mony showed, that Whiting did not bor
row JlOO.flfK) or more, giving Ice stock
principally as security. It always ap
peared in the records as presented, how
ever that the enormous sums of money
borrowed by Whiting were credited to the
accounts of Charles W. 'Morse.
' Boy Who Is Bis; Borrower.
At the conclusion of Mr. Jloxey'a. testi
mony, Lieslle Whiting was called to the
stand and those In the courtroom, who
had expected to see a dignified, shrewd
looking business man step forward, were
astonished to see a smooth-cheeked boy
of under 20 years walk nervously to the
witness-stand. A smile swept over the
room, and Judge Hough rapped sharply
for order. ,
After Whiting had been made to de
scribe how he had come to .sin the
notes which made him indebted to the
bank for such large amounts,, he was
asked: .
"Could you have paid this note I hold
for Ii2.000r
"What, me?" answered the startled
boy. "No no; I couldn't."
Could you have paid a $1000 noteT
pressed the attorney for the prosecu-
U "No. sir." responded the boy, a trifle
more ass.ured.
Ordered to Sign Xotes.
For half an hour longer the youth
was kept on the stand while a bunch
of letters bearing the signature "Les
lie E. Whiting" and directed to the
National Bank of North America were
read. These letters, couched In business-like
terms, gave orders to the
bank for transferring collateral
charges and renewal .of notes. A sen
tence In one letter read:
"Enclosed please find my check for
J200.000. which apply to my account."
The witness explained. In answer to
questions, that he had been sent to the
hank by his employers to sign the
notes. He said he knew he was incur
ring an obligation, but felt sure his
employers would protect the notes.
Whiting testified that he had never
talked with Mr. Morse or Mr. Curtis
concerning the slpnlng of notes or the
putting up of collateral. The boy also
aid that he did not think his employers-knew
that he was not of age.
Pnvlrisnn Brown, another broker's
clerk, was also a witness to tell of hav
ing signed notes for loans of more than
flflO.noo. Brown had a bad memory
and his testimony was of little value.
I. arse Profits on Paper.
The afternoon session was almost en
tirely devoted to tracing the loans made
In the name of Whiting. Mr. Moxey
started with loans made In June of
Inst year and showed how the loans
were repeatedly renewed. It was
brought out that at one time the bank
made a profit of $133,000 on the loans,
but the rroflt was on paper only. Mr.
Moxey said. This testimony led up to
the testimony of young Whiting.
Edward B. Wire, cashier of the Na
tional Bank of North America, who was
cross-examined today, said that he
never received Instructions' from Mr.
Morse relative to the reports of the
bank to the Controller of the Currency
and that, so far as he knew, the re
ports were always correct. He said
that he neve knew of Curtis making a
dishonest penny out of the bank.
Fluctuations of Ice Stock.
Gardiner W. Kimball, a Government
accountant, was put on the stand while
a chart which he had prepared showing
the fluctuations in the price of Amer
ican Ice stock was displayed to the
Jury.
After Whiting had testified, the case
was adjourned for the day. The trial
will be resumed tomorrow, a most un
usual proceeding, for not In 35 years.
It Is said, has a Federal tribunal here
held a session on Saturday.
The Jury will be kept under guard
tonight.

and vestrymen of St. David's Episcopal
Church, East Twelfth and Belmont
streets, last night, the resignation of
Rev. George B. Van Waters. D. D., for
seventeen and one-half years rector of
the church, was accepted. It was ac

follows:
To the wardens and vestrymen of St.
David's parish;
I hereby resign the rectorship of St.

flection and prayerful consideration and I
trust the vestry will kindly regard It as
absolutely definite and final.

a period of 17 V, years 1 am fully conscious
that I am severing a sacred bond. I leave
with affectionate good-will to all the vestry
men and parishioners and with prayers for
th. future welfars of the parish. I trust
that under God's blessing you will bavs
great material and spiritual prosperity. Sin
cerely yours,
GEORGE B. VAN WATERS,

hands of the official board Monday and
several meetings were held In the hope
that Dr. Van Waters would reconsider
his Intention, but without avail. Dr.
Van Waters is not in the city, for he left
a few days ago for rest and recreation.
Mrs. Van Waters said last night that
her husband left the church with the
best of feeling, but felt that after so long
a term of service as rector he could re
tire with safety to the parish.
He began his work as pastor when the
church stood at Grand avenue and East
Morrison street. Shortly afterward this
property was sold and a half block pur
chased on Fast Twelfth street, where
work was started on the present Btone
church and rectory. Hard times caused
a suspension of work., for several years,
but through some large contributions It
was resumed. Although receiving calls
to other churches. Dr. Van Waters con
sidered it his duty to remain.
Mrs. Van Waters, who spoke last night
for her husband, said he was not leav
ing the ministry, but would reside In
Portland, and whenever opportunity of
fered would assist In the work of the
Episcopal Church. Pr. Van Waters has
been prominent In the Episcopal Church
of the state as well as Portland, and has
many warm friends inside and outside of
church circles.
ENLARGE MINIDOKA TRACT
Government Withdraws More Snake
River Land for Irrigation.
ORBOONIAN TBWS BCREAU. Wash
ington. Oct. 16. The Minidoka Irrigation
project looks so good to Government offi
cials that they are making preliminary
surveys with a view to materially en
larging the irrigation area on the north
side of Snake River. As far as they have
progressed, these preliminary surveys
have been entirely satisfactory, so satis
factory that the Secretary of Interior to
day withdrew- from all forms of entry 15.
000 acres of land on the north bank of
Snake River Just east of Shoshone Falls.
The withdrawn land lies In townships 7,
g and south, ranges 18. 19 and 20 east.
If It shall be later determined to irrigate
this land, its withdrawal will prevent
speculative entries.
The examinations now under way are
not only with regard to the possibility of
carrying water onto this land, but also
as to the possibilities of Increasing the
amount of water in Snake River for Irri
gation purposes through construction of
storage works on the headwaters of Snake
River and its tributaries.

PARIS. Oct. 16. In official circles here
the publication of the proposed pro
gramme in advance of its communication
to and acceptance by Turkey and the
other signatories of the Berlin treaty is
considered particularly unfortunate and
likely to embarrass subsequent negotia
tions. No matter in what way the pro

to be hailed as a victory by one sido or

The Greek Minister here has expressed
his satisfaction with the document, but
the Servian diplomatic' representative
does not conceal his discontent. The
Austro-Hungarian Ambassador has de
clared that article seven Is unacceptable

REFTSES TO PAY INDEMNITY.
Rulparla Will Not Buy Indepen
dence, but Will Buy Railroad.
SOFIA, Oct. 16. The members of the
Bulgarian cabinet, who yesterday ac
companied Czar Ferdinand to his
Dietrttza hunting lodge In the Riolo
Mountains, returned here late this
evening and announced that the cab
inet has decided to reject the proposal
emanating from London 'for the pay
ment of indemnity to Turkey as a con
dition of recognizing Bulgaria's Inde
pendence. A nota to that effect will
be sent by the Bulgarian administra
tion to the powers.
The only question the government is
willing to negotiate Is the purchase of
the rights of the Oriental Railroad
Company. A communication has been
sent to the officials of the railroad In
viting the company to tubmif to the
government the terms on which it is
willing- to surrender the lease. The
communication states that Bulgaria is
now administering- the line provisional
ly and Is maintaining the company's
rates.
"A. member of the cabinet tonight
said there would be no mobilization
of troops, for the present at least, as
Bulgaria knows that the Turkish
movements of troops on the frontier
are purely local. He said also that the
refusal of his government to pay an
Indemnity to Turkey would in no wise
hurt that country, as the Roumelaln
tribute flowed exclusively Into the cof
fers of Turkish creditors. The cabinet
takes the ground that the payment of
an indemnity for Independence would
be the most supreme stultification of
the country.

MAY BE FJMIE OF PAPER
EMPLOYES IN INDEPENDENT
MILLS TO STRIKE.
Supply May Run Short When Elec
tion Creates Vnusual Demand
From Newspapers.
NEW YORK, Oct. 16. Through the or
dering out of men employed in the inde
pendent paper mills it was Indicated today
that efforts are being made to make the
paper strike general. Several independent
concerns were compelled to close down
today, because the men were ordered to
go on strike by J. T. Carey, president of
the Papermakers Union.
Publishers fear that, if a general strike
Is brought about, there will be a paper
famine, which, on the eve of the election,
would greatly Injure their Interests, they
say. The Great Northern and Interna-,
tlonal Paper companies cannot begin to
supply the demand for paper, say pub
lishers, even If their mills are running to
full capacity.
An otficial of one of the large paper
manufacturing concerns said today that
the entise reserve supply of paper In this
country and Canada is not sufficient to
meet the demands of the newspaper
press of the country for more than two
weeks at the most. The export trade has
been stopped, he said, and the drouth,
whieh has shut off the water supply for
many mills, increases the difficulty of the
situation.-
It was said here today that a confer
ence between the paper manufacturers
and President Carey has been arranged
for tomorrow.
Self-defense, says jury
Japanese Shot Countryman Only

Self-defense was the motive for the kill
ing of S. Shimlzu, a Japanese laborer, by
Mltsujiro Hashimoto, another Japanese,
according to the verdict of a Coroner's
Jury which held an Inquest yesterday aft
ernoon. The killing ocourred Wednesday
afternoon on a farm rented by J. Calla
han -one-half mile west of Gresham.
Five Japanese laborers who witnessed
the shooting testified at the Inquest. They
related practically the same details in
connection with the story, and all agreed
that Hashimoto acted purely In self-defense.
According to their testimony, Shimlzu
entered the place and demanded money.
When he was refuBed, he flashed a revol
ver and attempted to shoot Hashimoto,
who, however, seized his wrist and
wrenched the weapon from his assailant.
Shimlzu then seized an ax and attempted
to strike Hashimoto, who fired twice, both
balls taking effect.
