BANK BREAKS IT
Fail to Pay Clearing-House
After Run Which Lasts
Throughout Day.
NO STATEMENT GIVEN OUT
Officials in Charge Refuse to Tell
Condition of Institution Ex
President Ham Disappears
From Place of Refuge.
MEXICO CITY. Jan. 25. The United
States Banking Company was sus
pended tonight from the clearing house
upon its failure to make a settlement
of today's business. By a special ar
rangement the bank was given untU
9:30 tomorrow morning to make good
its deticit, which is said to amount to
400.000 pesos.
Krom 10 o'clock in the morning un
til 4:20 this afternoon, except for a
lull of an hour at mid-day. a line of
depositors crowded the lobby of the In
stitution and live paying tellers were
kept busy.
The bank honored every check and
it is estimated unofficially that fully
2.000.000 pesos were withdrawn. James
Korsyth, assistant manager of the Mex
ico branch of the Bank of Montreal,
and who was yesterday placed in
charge of the United States Banking
Company, tonight refused to discuss
the bank's condition or to explain why
large signs stating that the bank of
Montreal had assumed charge were
taken down several hours after, they
. had been tacked up.
Crowd Gets Anxious.
The crowd began to assemble half an
hour before opening time. "When the
bank opened there was a crush about
the paying teller's windows which soon
Increased to such an extent that it was
necepfwry to convert bookkeepers and re
ceiving tellers' cages into paying tellers'
compartments. Many women were In the
crowd and some were roughly jostled
by men.
Sarly in the day huge placards an
nouncing that the Bank of Montreal had
assumed charge of the affairs of the Uni
ted States Banking Company, "for the
present." were posned. These appeared to
have the effect of restoring confidence
in a measure and toward noon the line
diminished until only a few persons were
at the windows. Soon after noon, for
some reason, which officials' of the bank
decline to explain, these placards were
removed, whereupon the run was resumed
with renewed vigor.
The manager of the National Bank
of Mexico denies that the Institution
was behind the United States Banking
Company in its present financial dif
ficulties, as was said by Mr. Forsyth
last evening to be a fact. A Mexican
banking official said he believed the
bank of Montreal would take care of
the situation.
Run on Kank Foreseen.
Visits to other representative bank
ers elicited the information that a
week ago today they foresaw the run
on the United States Banking Com
pany and had prepared to meet any
possible emergency. Cash was piled
high in the vaults of every financial
institution here, but no sympathetic
run occurred and no one fears a gen
eral panic in Mexico City.
George I. Ham. formerly president
of the United States Banking Company,
and who, until he turned over to the
Institution practically all of his pos
sessions, was the heaviest stockholder,
was not at the sanitarium where yes
terday he was reported to have taken
refuge. He left early today and could
not be found.
The Mexican National Packing Com
pany, of which John W. Dekay is
president, and which is said to be a
heavy creditor of the bank, denied that
it had gone into the hands of a receiver
or was in any way affected because of
the situation of the United States
Banking Company,
No official statement of the condi
tion of the United States Banking Com
pany has been given out. Rumors to
the effect that, while depositors will
be paid in full, stockholders will lose
w:ere neither affirmed nor denied au
thoritatively. This Is the first run on a bank here
In many years.

The bill, introduced by Representative
Humphrey, of Washington, in nr.,,.
he Committee on Merchant Marine and
.Fisheries, and will be finally consid-
ered there probably next Thursday. If
Mr. Humphrey presses for a vote on
his bill at this time it will undoubtedly
be passed by a majority vote of the
committee.
Representative Spight, of Mississippi,
ranking Democratic member of that
committee, who has twice led the anti
ship subsidy forces to victory, will
again present a minority report and
carry the fight to the floor of the
House. In the Sixtieth Congress, hip
subsidy was defeated by but three
votes, and the feeling against it has
been growing smaller and smaller with
each year.
This year no doubt is expressed that, if
the measure passes the House, it will eas
ily be put through the Senate. President
Taft is strongly urging this legislation
and the bill of Representative Humphrey
is supposed to embody the full views of
the administration. It ie stated that not
a single amendment to the bill will be
made in committee.

SOLUTION CP TO EACH STATE
Missouri Commission Member Puts
Plan Before Lumbermen.
KANSAS CITY. Jan. 25. Declaring
that every state should have a forestry
department, headed by a technical for
ester. D. Austen Latchaw. a member of
the Missouri Forestry Commission, ap
pointed by Governor Hadley, delivered
the principal address at the opening ses
sion here today of the ' annual conven
tion of the Southwestern Lumbermen's
Association.
Mr. Latchaw, who is a member of
the' editorial staff of the Kansas City
Star, spoke on "Forestry and Lumber
men. '
"After all," he said, "the tree prob
lem, the problem of meeting and ulti
mately overcoming, if possible, the tim
ber losses in the country cannot be
solved unless the individual landowner
becomes interested in the subject. The
landowner must be induced to plant trees
where trees ought to grow and where
he can afford to let them grow. In
the great prairie states, especially, it is
not so much a question of conserving
the forests as a question of planting
trees where none grow now.
"Every state should have a forestry
department, headed by a technical for
ester. The Government should have an
appropriation large enough to enable it.
to establish and maintain one or more
nurseries and to prepare and widely dis
tribute lterature."
Harry A. Gorsuch, secretary, in his
annual report, said:
"It is for you lumbermen, whether
you be manufacturers or dealers, to pro
mote consistent forestry policies, not
only because by thus doing you make
provision for the future of your own
business, but also because by so doing
you promote the public welfare. You
should help to agitate the question of
state forestry. You should take a hand
in determining what the formulated poli
cies of your state shall be. You have
potentialities in these directions that
should be employed."
Secretary Gorsuch urged that all West
ern town should have wooded parks.
GARFIELD IS AGAINST BILL
Ex-Secretary Opposes Ballinger's
Land-Withdrawal Plait.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. 25. Ex
Secretary of the Interior Garfield ap
peared before the Senate committee on
public lands today and opposed the bill,
submitted by Secretary Ballinger. au
thorizing the Secretary to withdraw
public lands from settlement pending
recommendation to Congress for legis
lation in reference to them. He de
clared that, as the President had au
thority to withdraw public lands be
lieved to contain valuable timber or
mineral, or to be valuable for the de
velopment of power, there was no good
reason for extending the right to the
Secretary of the Interior.
Several members of the committee
said they agreed with Mr. Garfield, if
it should be shown the present system
did not involve too much "red taps"
in accomplishing the desired with
drawals. No conclusions were reached
and. the bill will be taken up again to
morrow. POSTAL BANKS BILLS ARE CP
Commitee Obeys President's Wish on

WASHINGTON. Jan. 25. Postal sav

to report a bill at an early date.
There are three distinct bills before
the committee. They were introduced
by Senators Carter, Burkett and Borah.

BOYCOTT CROWING,
PRICES LOWERING
Marked Decrease in Price of
Foodstuffs Reported From
w Many Points of Country.
UNIONS OF COLORADO JOIN
Beginning -Today 50,000 Men In
That State Will Eat No Meat Un
til Cost Is Less Special
Grand Jury In New York.
CHICAGO. Jan. 25. From many parts
of the country come reports of lower
prices for foodstuffs and accessions to
the ranks of anti-meat crusaders. The
labor unions of Colorado have passed
resolutions that, beginning tomorrow,
the 50,000 men who make up their
ranks will eat no more meat . until
there has been a material reduction
in the price.
As showing the effect' the boycott
has had so far, reductions were made
here today of from 3 to 5 per cent in
the wholesale prices of eggs, butter,
potatoes, pork products and the highar
grades of dressed beef cuts. On the
exchanges quotations of live hogs, cat
tle and sheep and wheat, corn, oats
and provisions are materially less.
Butter Is Still Lower.
Butter, a reduction In which was an
nounced yesterday, has declined still
more, from 32 to 31 cents, wholesale.
Eggs, too, are now 32 cents a dozen, as
contrasted with 34 cents last week.
New York reports large reductions
in the price of foodstuffs. Milk has
dropped 1 cent a quart on at least two
of the big dealers' routes; butter, in
the best qualities, has been cut 5 cents
a pound; eggs are oft 5 cents a dozen.
Storage eggs that have been put out
as "strictly fresh," at high prices, are
no longer sold as such.
The anti-monopoly laws of New York
State are tb be invoked in the fight
for lower prices. A special grand jury
has been sworn in to consider the ef
fect of combinations among dealers on
the prices of foodstuffs. The alleged
milk combine in the city will be taken
up first, and then the jury will turn
its attention to meat.
Export Tax on Meat Wanted.
In Cleveland a movement has been
started asking Senator Burton to
father a movement to have an export
tax placed on meat. This is supple
mentary to petitions now being pre
sented for signature In the city,. These
petitions will be sent to Congress.
Pittsburg began its meat fast of 30
days today. About 25.000 workingmen
went to their toil with not a sign of
meat of any kind in their dinner pails.
The movement has already had its ef
fect on the prices of food. Butter has
dropped 6 cents from yesterday, eggs
are down 2 and 3 cents a dozen. The
director of the Department of Health
advises eating meat but once a day,
as a solution to the problem.
LOCAL PRICES NOT AFFECTED
Result, However, "May Be to Prevent
Expected Advances.
The anti-meat crusade in the Eastern
states has had no effect on Portland
prices. Meats are reasonably cheap here
and there has been no agitation for any
reduction Prices in the Eastern cities
of both livestock and dressed meats have
come down sharply since the boycott was
begun.
The decline at Chicago, Omaha and
Kansas City, however, has not been suf
ficient to affect livestock values here,
except to the extent of possibly checking
the advance in hogs. At this time of year
livestock usually advances steadily. It
began going up at the beginning of Win
ter and there was every prospect that
the market would continue to rise until
pr ass-fed stock was available in the
Spring.
The check given to the Eastern mar
kets, however, by the anti-meat agitation
may keep local prices of livestock where
they are the remainder of the season.
Portianii butchers say that the prices of
meats in this market compare favorably
even with the greatly reduced prices that
now prevail in these Eastern cities where
the boycott has become effective.

OUT EGG REVELATIONS.
Pure Food Expert Wiley Declares
Shelled Oval Should Xot Be
Kept Over Nine Months.
Washington, ' Jan. 25. Aside from
discussion of the American hen and
her products, the feature of today's in
quiry into high food prices by a House
committee was the statements of Dr.
Harvey W. Wylle, chief of the Bureau
of Chemistry of the Department of Ag
riculture, that sinister influence had
accomplished the repeal of the pro
vision of law relating to enforcing
efficiency in the cold storage of food
products.
Dr. Wylie said the elimination of
the appropriation for this work had
greatly hampered his department in
protecting the public from deleterious
food products.
In reply to questions. Dr. Wylle
stated he was sure the cold-storage
people themselves had had nothing to
do with it, and, of course, the con
sumer was innocent. The appropria
tion was omitted last year.
"What is the most certain method
of assuring oneself that an egg ds ab
solutely fresh?" asked Representative
Pearre.
' Watch the hen," replied Dr. Wiley.
"I want to know when an egg seems
to be fresh and starts verging on the
passe." explained Mr. Pearre.
"I'll answer it." replied Dr. Wiley,
"if you will tell me when a pig ceases
to be a pig and begins to become a
hog."
Seriously, Dr. Wiley said cold storage
could not "be blamed for all bad eggs.
He added that they should not be keot

IDEAL DENTAL SERVICE.
Here we choose dentists for their in
dividual skill, for, verily, not every man
is master of all the different phases
of dental science any more than a, musi
cian is master of all musical instru
ments or a painter can paint an oil
or "water color" and paint landscape
equally as well as portraits and vice
versa. . .
The solitaire dentist who takes a
whack at tile whole subject from ex
tracting to laboratory work may do for
some, but not for us OR YOU.
We first of all examine the teeth.
This calls for special skill.
Then the work Is entrusted to the
man best adapted to perform the. work
Indicated, so the patient will be com
fortable and at ease.
THE ALVEOLAR METHOD of restor
ing missing teeth calls for expert serv
ice from beginning to end.
Dentists who come to us seeking em
ployment attracted by the high wages
we pay complain that our demands are
unnecessarily severe.
One man said, "I am no jeweler." But
we told him he must be as clever a
craftsman as any jeweler and be a
good mechanic as well.
And, more than that, we Insist that
he be gentle, kind: kind, patient and
also sympathetic and then KIND.
The keynote is KINDNESS In this
office.
"Work with a swift, sure, gentle
touch," we tell them, and "cultivate
the gentle art of painlessness."
The result of all this careful atten
tion to detail has started an endless
chain of friends and relatives of pa
tients in our direction who are tired of
being tortured by dentists who believe
a little pain is good for people.
