Actions Against Officials of Defunct Oregon Trust Bank Will Hang on Decision Reached on Mitchell Deposit. Walter V. Moore, ex-presldent of the defunct Oregon Trust & Savings Bank, will . bo placed on trial today technically charged with having re ceived a deposit of $220 from Miss Minnie Mitchell on the afternoon of the day before the bank closed Its doors, knowing at the time that the bank was In an insolvent condition. EfTort was made yesterday by the counsel for Moore to have the trial postponed upon the ground that Henry E. McGinn, one of the attorneys for the indicted banker, was engaged in a trial for murder and that It would be a hardship upon Moore to have the case go on without Mr. McGinn present at the start. Judge Denies Defendant's Motion. This motion was made before Pre siding Judge Morrow, but was denied, the court giving as his reason the fact that Mr. McGinn was not engaged in the Moore case until after he had been engaged in the murder trial. Perhaps the prosecuting officials could not possibly have hit upon a more convincing piece of evidence from among the array of irregularities charged against the men in charge of the bank than the incident of Miss Mitchell. She had arrived in Portland, a stranger and an invalid, from the Ea&t, Just a day or so before she made her deposit. She was wheeled about in an invalid's chair, helpless and piti fully dependent upon the sum which she brought with her. She had brought a letter of introduction to a Portland man, who, being a depositor at the Oregon Trust, recommended this bank highly. It was late in the afternoon: the doors of the bank had been closed for the day and whatever disclosures had been made at the bank relative to their being able to continue in busi ness and to the solvency of the Insti tution had already been brought to light. The friend telephoned to the bank and explained that Miss Mitchell had Just arrived in the city, was an invalid and could not come down town again without a great deal of discom fort and asked that her deposit be taken. After some delay the word was tele phoned back for Miss Mitchel to bring her money, that It would be received, although, the bank had ceased to transact business for the day. She was wheeled up to the receiving teller's window "where the money was taken from her and a book given her. The next morning the notice was posted upon the windows that the bank had suspended payment. Miss Mitchell will not be a witness, because she Is ill at the present time in a sanitarium in Colorado, but her friend will be. The Investigating experts', who ex amined the books of the Oregon Tru&t, have asserted that the bank was in solvent from the day it first opened Its doors to do business and that thus all of its officers have technically been guilty . of violating the state banking laws, but the prosecution has picked out several specific instances, the most glaring being that of Miss Mitchell State Will Be Ably Represented. Representing the state will be Dep uty District Attorney Fitzgerald, who has had the bank case in charge since the criminal investigation was first in stituted. Assisting him will be Dis trict Attorney Cameron, who. no doubt, will apDear throughout the entire se ries of trials. Representing Moore will be C. W. Fulton and Henry E. McGinn. As Mr. McGinn is also occupied with a mur der trial, now in progress in the Cir cuit Court, it is likely that he will be unable to attend the first few days of the trial. - The trial will probably occupy two weeks, as hosts of wit nesses will be summoned on both sides'. As Moore's associates In the bank are jointly indicted with him upon this charge, the attorneys for the others will watch, the progress with great in terest, as the outcome of the case for Moore will virtually mean the same TeKult for them. Henry Moore, E. E. Lytle. "W. Cooper Morris and Leo Friede are the others under indictment. Judg ing from the routine order in which the cases are being assigned in the Circuit Court it Is regarded as prob able that this one will be assigned to Judge Bronaugh today. FENDER TRYOUT ON TODAY Mayor and City Council to Witness Tests of Various Devices. Mayor Simon, members of the City Council and all who are interested in the question of fenders, will witness the tests of "various devices at 2 o'clock this afternoon at Twenty-sixth and Up shur streets. The Portland Railway, Light & Power Company has furnished cars for all persons having Inventions they wish to exhibit, and it is expected the demonstrations will prove inter esting and Instructive. The fender question has agitated Portland for years. Many tests have been held, but each time the .Council failed to adopt any. kind, and the street car company has continued with a so called fender which Its own officers admit is defective and not as good as they would like to have on their cars. President Josselyn has stated many times that he is ready to adopt any good fender that shall be approved by the Council. Councilman Lombard, chairman of the Council committee on health and police, has declared that his committee will recommend a device after the tests are held, and he be lieves the Council will this time ap prove of some kind.

Convention Will Day Stress on Fact It Is Not to Supplant Exist ing Agencies. Emphasis on the fact that the lay men's missionary movement, which is to hold a convention In Portland March 29, 80 and 31, is not Intended to sup plant' any existing organization or agency in the missionary field, is made by Eastern leaders in the movement In communications to local churches. In reply to a question as to whether the laymen's movement is carried on with the idea of introducing some new sys tem of conducting missionary work, it is declared that such is by no means the case. '"The laymen's movement is entirely supplemental to existing missionary or ganizations," writes one of the secre taries of the movement. "It Is to gain financial support for the workers who are already in the field and to make it possible to widen the scope of service in foreign fields. , "In launching the movement the po sition was taken that it was time for the men of the churches to dtt are for missions. .For many years the splendid societies conducted by women have been bearing the burden. From the response that has been received from all parts of the United States it is evident that the men themselves realize it is time for them to do their share." At the various ministerial meetings yesterday morning the subject of en tertaining outside delegates to the convention received consideration. At all of the meetings where the matter was presented the pastors expressed willingness to call for volunteer enter tainers among the members of their congregations. In some cases the pas tors had arranged for the entertain ment of delegates, even before a re quest was made from the co-operating committee. The United Brethren, for Instance, have given notice that they will care for both pastors and laymen from outside the city while the convention- is in progress. No returns have yet been made on the number of delegates that registered at the various church services Sunday morning. What reports have already been made to the secretafy, W. A. Lov ett, are very encouraging.- BEALS WANTS SLIDE-DATA Weatherman Asks Observers of Four States to Describe Avalanches.

BIG TIMBER DEAL IS ON TRACT OF 40,000 ACRES OF FIR IN COLUMBIA COUNTY. Henry Teurlsh, of Dnluth, and A. J. Keith of Milwaukee, Said to Be Purchasers From Benson Co. Henry Teurish, of Duluth. Minn., and A. J. Keith, of Milwaukee, Wis., wealthy timberland dealers, are ne gotiating for the purchase of a Co lumbia County tract of over 40,000 acres of fir - timber from the Benson Logging & Manufacturing Company, of this city, of which Simon Benson is president and manager. While the parties concerned in the transaction would not discuss the sub ject yesterday it is understood that the Eastern men have made a pre liminary payment in the pending trans action, which. If closed, will be the largest transfer of tlmberlands ever made in this state. Messrs. Teurish and Keith are among the most extensive timberland oper ators in the country. They are inter ested in the Potlatch Lumber Com pany, of Idaho, which is capitalized for $10,000,000, and in addition to hav ing, an interest In other similar prop erties throughout the Pacific North west have large timber holdings. If the sale Is concluded It will rival in importance and the amount of cap ital involved the sale a few years ago by the Northern Pacific of 44.000 acres of tlmberlands to the Weyerhaeuser interests for a consideration said to have been $4,000,000. It was impossible yesterday to learn the plans of the prospective purchasers of the Benson holdings. It is sus pected that the Wisconsin men may decide to establish a mill on the land and manufacture lumber, but this could not be confirmed.
