BROKEN IN MIND AND BODY
Lived Exemplary Life for 20 Years
In La Grande, Where He Was
Highly Respected by His
Frlenda and Neighbors.
LA GRANDE. Or.. Oct. 18.- Special.)
In his private home, on Fourth street,
at 10 o'clock tonight. J. W. Scriber was
hound over to await tlie action of the
Federal grand jury at Portland at the
next session of 'hat body, on a charge of
t-mbezzl'.nc; funds of the Farmers &
Trftiirs National Bank In tliN city.
His bonds were placed at $13,000, which
were readily supplied.
At the last moment tonight It was found
that Scriber was too weak physically to
he taken to Portland or Pendleton either,
and United States Commissioner. John
lialley. of Pendleton, was ordered here
on the cvenlns train.
The exact amount of Scriber'e defalca
tions Is not known, but a statement
given out today places the sum at at least
Further examination of the bank's
books are expected to enlarge these fig
ures. Was Man or Clean Habits.
Scriber heretofore has ranked socially
and commercially as a conservative, yet
shrewd business man, and one of clean
habits. He has ppent 20 years In this
city, establishing a record for himself
which any man might envy, until tha
past week's exposures have thrown a true
light on what seemed an exemplary life.
His earnincs have been spent In a pecu
liar way. If they have been i-pent at all.
for his home is a comfortable, though
not a palatial affair. He had no known
vices, other than his apparent mania for
signing false notes, ar.d no man can hon
estly say he ever saw Scriber spend a
dollar lavishly. For all. there is nothing
In this city to mark his wealth beyond
that of a successful business man.
The depositors who are suffering
from the maladministration of the
cashier are numerous and stand mutely
awaiting the edict of the Controller as
to what" their losses are. No effort has
been made to protect themselves,
whatever. Depositors In the suspended
bank are small, being of a savings
bank order. Maity families of mod
erate means lost their savings, while
a large number of business men lost
their checking accounts when the in
stitution closed Its doors.
Other Officers in Dark.
Other officers of the hank knew
nothing of the defalcations or the
shaky condition of the Institution un
til after it was closed Saturday night.
The assistant cashier did not know
there had been a run on, the institu
tion during Saturday -afternoon.
Scriber conducted his manipulations so
cleverly that the directors were out
done and hoodwinked at every turn.
They have thrown up their hands in
horror at the carnival of forgery that
has been going on under their very
supervision.
When Claude Gatch. the National
bank examiner, turned in the call for
I'nited States Marshal and Attorney, he
did so at the sacrifice of a long intimate
friendship with the cashier. When asked
tonight as to the friendship said to
exist between them. Gatch said:
"Scriber and I were schoolmates. "
"When Gatrh was asked tonight about
the hartk affairs, he said:
"These are questions which I am pre
cluded by the rul"S of the Department
from answering. The reports that I have
tent in and the reports of other examin
ers before me, are for the use of the
Controller cnli."
Now thst Scriher's trouble has become
known his friends and enemies are look
ing for additional alleged misdoings of
the man who has devoted his entire life
for the past 20 years to banking. A re
call to the recent land fraud exposure
is made. The story goes that he yet
holds title to a large portion of 12,000
acres in Washington which were in the
limelight during the exposures of late
years. No prosecution was ever insti
tuted In the land matter.
Tells His Story to Officers.
Brrlber has confessed, though nothing
has been given out -for publication. His
friends here look for no stubborn light.
In view of the fact that he has twice
poured out his shortcomings to Federal
officials during the p.ist few days, i His
condition is pitiful. He was taken today
to tr.e bank where for so many years he
enjoyed the unlimited confidence of the
directors. When he returned for iunch
to his home he was in the company of
the Marshal and walked with the aid of
his son's and the Marshal's arms.
He Is a physical and nervous wreck,
and those who have suffered most by
his defalcations are perhaps tho first
to entertain feelings of pity for the
shrewd, clever, capable, apparently con
servative man of financial affairs. He
h:is two sons here and one in Salem.
Nothing but confidence and respect are
felt for his fninily.
Joseph Palmer, a retired business
man. Is president of the defunct bank,
and G. K. McCully is assistant cashier.
M COIRI ORDERS HIS AIUSEST
Sends Deputy Evans to I.a Grande on
Word From Bank Examiner.
T'pon the receipt of a preliminary re
port of the condition of the Farmers A
Traders National Park, of I.a Grande,
from National Fank Kx.tminer Claud
Gatrh. I'nited Stales Attorney John Mc
Court yesterday issued a warrant for the
arrest of J W. Scriber. cashier of the
suspended bank, on a charge of enibex
xlement. The amount of Mr. Sc.rioer's
apparent defalcations to date, according
to tlie Investigation of Elvaminer Gatch.
Is 112.22.25. but it Is suspected that the
amount of the defalcation will be In
creased If various securities and valu
able papers belonging to the bank, which
are now said to be missing, cannot be
located.
District Attorney McCourt yesterday
directed his deputy. Walter H. Kvans.
who went to La Grande Wednesday, to
take Mr. Scriber into custody. It is ex
pected Mr. Scriber will furnish bonds for
bis appearance when his case Is called
in tho, United States Court In this city.
WAS WIJX. KNOWS IX SALEM
Friends Suspected Trouble When
Hearing of Hank's Failure.
SALEM. Or, Oct. IS. (Special.)
News of the arrest of Jeff W. Scriber,
of La Grande, on a charge of embexale
rrent was received hers with much
regret, owing to the high regard In
which th Scriber family has always
been held. 3. W. Scriber's parents,
Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Scriber. were pio
neer residents of Salem. The father
died a few years ago and the mother
Is now a resident of La Grande.
It could scarcely be said that news
of the arrest caused surprise, for ever
since the failure of the Sumpter Bank,
In which Scriber had an Interest, there
has been discussion here as to whether
responsibility for the failure rested
upon Scriber or his nephew, Roy
Miller, who waa cashier, and who was
also a former resident of Salem. Close
relatives of Scriber always Insisted
that Miller wrecked the bank, while
friends of Miller placed the charge
against Scriber. When, therefore. It
was reported a few days ago that
Scriber's bank at La Grande was in
difficulty, there was a general feeling
that something seriously wrong would
be found with Scribers management.
The Impression had been general
here prior' to this difficulty that
Scriber had become wealthy In his
business affairs In Eastern Oregon.
SEATTLE BANK HOLDS NOTE
Deiter Horton Paper, However, Is
Protected by Trustees' Collateral.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Oct. 16. (Spe
cial.) N. H. Latimer, manager of the
Dexter Herton Bank, of this city, stat
ed tonight that his bank holds a note
for from .the Farmers & Traders
Bank, of La Grande, which note he says
is protected by collateral of the bank
and signed by the board of trustees of
the failed institution. This. Mr. Latimer
says, is the only paper of the failed
bank which Dexter Horton & Co. hold.
Latimer, when he learned of the for
geries, sent an agent to La Grande two
days ago to investigate and protect the
Dexter Horton Bank.
VICTIM OF OWN NEGLECT
Supreme Court Reverses Damages
Awarded Injured Trainman.
OLYMPIA. Wash., Oct. 16. (Special.)
In reversing the Judgment for J6XJ0 recov
ered against the O. R. & N. by Joseph
Borcher, a freight conductor, the Supreme
Court says in its decision It would . be
rank injustice to allow . the conductor to
escape the consequences of his own negli
gence. Borcher was conductor of a freight run
ning from Wallula to Umatilla, his train
fell behind running schedule and near
Rivereside an extra freight ran into the
rear end of Borchar's train, causing the
injuries to Borcher for which he asked
damages. The case is dismissed because
Borcher did not obey the rules to protect
the rear of his train by torches or tor
pedoes. SMUGGLING IN CHINESE

Columbia Border.
SEATTLE. October 16 What is be
lieved by Government officials to be, a

Chinamen Into the United States from

is keeping this office on the jump," salJ
I'nited States District Attorney Elmer E.

was a well-organized and well-disctpllned
gang or Chinese smugglers at work, such
a gang that we believed had been entirely
broken up."
Men who smuggle Chinamen Into the
country often receive $500 for each man.
