SGRIBER GUILTY IS
'T
First Vote Convicts Cashier of
Wrecked Bank Under Four
Indictments.
FORTY COUNTS INCLUDED
Xle of Insanity Has o AVcIglit
"With Jury Twenty Years in
Prison Is Minimum Sentence
Under Charges as Sustained.
Jefferson W. Scriber. cashier " of the
Farmers & Traders' Xational Bank, of
La Grande, which he was charged with
wrecking, was found guilty on the four
Indictments covering 40 counts, against
Mm by a jury in the Federal Court yes
terday morning. The Jury was out 15
minutes and took but one ballot. The
specific charges on which Scriber was.
found guilty were embezzlement, abstrac
tion of tlie bank's funds, misapplication
of the bank's funds, making; false entries
In his reports and making false entries
in the bank's books.
The jury did not consider the insanity
plea of defense in its short deliberation.
The jury reached the unanimous opinion
that Scriber was sane while cashier of
the bank and only considered the charges
and defense on their merits. It was
agreed that the jury should vote on the
indictments as a whole, then, if there
were disagreement, the indictments and
counts would be considered separately.
The first ballot resulted in the unanimous
verdict of guilty on all indictments and
counts, and Ions before expected the
jury tiled back into the courtroom to
render its verdict to Judge R. S. Bean.
Xo Emotion Is Shown,
i
Scriber sat in silence as the jurors
slowly took their seats. He looked
straight toward the judge. Not a muscle
of his face moved as Judge Bean asked
the jury if it had reached a verdict and
the jurors nodded their heads in unison.
The defendant had recovered from his
collapse of the day before and sat stolid
ly awaiting his fate. When Foreman
Johnson passed up the verdict Scriber
betrayed no sign of nervousness and he
heard the verdict read without exhibiting
emotion. He did not even look toward
the jury or shift his position.
Scriber sat motionless .until Judge Bean
discharged the Jury. He held no con
ference with his counsel, but silently
walked away with his friends-and family.
Attorney McMahon asked Judge Bean
for 10 days in which to, decide on the
Question of asking for a new trial o.r
appealing the case. By agreement with
District Attorney McCourt, the time was
granted.
Scribcr's bond of $40,000 is still in effect
And will retain him his liberty until after
sentence is passed. The penalty on each
Indictment is from live to 15 years in
prison, and sentences may be made to
operate concurrently. In the latter event
Scriber" would be compelled to serve at
least 20 years in prison based on the
minimum sentence on each indictment.
Aside from the conviction of embezzle
ment, abstraction of funds, misapplica
tion of funds and making false entries in
reports and in the bank's books, six
charges of perjury hang over Scriber.
The perjury charges are based upon false
affidavits accompanying reports to the
Government concerning the condition of
the bank.
Bank Failed in 1908.
The Farmers & Traders National
Bank, of 1m Grande, closed its doors Oc
tober 10. 190S, after sensational disclos
ures that Scriber had been using bank
funds for his own benefit. The total
amount of the shortage is about $135,000.
Of this amount Scriber forged notes ag
gregating $90,000. Scriber was arrested
when the bank was closed and placed
under $25,000 bonds. The Federal grand
jury of March, 1909, indicted him and
his bail was raised to $40,000. or $10,000 on
each indictment. The bail was furnished
and he has been at liberty since.
The trial began on May 9 and took up
the entire time of the District Court since
that date. A mass of evidence had been
accumulated by the Government and all
the records and books of the banks were
presented to the court. The only defense
offered by Attorneys Fulton and Mc
Mahon, for Scriber, was that he was
insane at the time of the defalcations.
Expert testimony was introduced to show
that he was afflicted with paranoia, a
mental derangement that caused him to
be insane on one particular subject while
sane on all other matters. It was con
tended that Scriber had a delusion that
a rival bank was making an intense fight
on his institution with a view to wreck
ing it, under which delusion he forged
notes, made false entries and committed
other acts which ultimately resulted in
the bank's failure. The failure of his
bank at Sumpter was also said to have
upset his mind".
Attorney Fulton asked that a specific
Instruction be given the jury on insan
ity, which was done. Judge Bean was
through with his charge to the jury at
.11 o'clock, and in 15 minutes it was an
nounced from the jury-room that a ver
dict had been reached.
WRONG BUTCHER ACCUSED
Harry 'Wood Proves He Had Hot
Sold Bad Meat.
airs. Ida Howell was undoubtedly
right when she told Judge Bennett that
a, butcher had sold her bad meat, for
the testimony showed that it turned a
deep green color very soon after It
was purchased. She made an error,
however, when she accused Harry Wood
of the act, as he had not conducted
the place where the meat was bought
for over two years.
In the course of her testimony Mrs.
Howell said she had purchased some
sausages from a chop at the southwest
corner of First and Alder streets, and
that next morning they announced
their inferiority in unmistakable terms.
The accused merchant at this junc
ture drew a map of the vicinity and
asked the witness to point out where
it was that she had bought the meat.
She indicated the southwest corner.
"If your honor please," said Wood,
"I sold that market two years ago."
"The case is dismissed," said Judge
Bennett.
COUNCIL MAY DROP ISSUE
Devlin- AVould Leave Responsibility
for Fenders With State.'
Whether the City Council will ever
approve a fender to be used by the
streetcar companies operating In Port
land seems to be an open question. At
the last session of that body, Council
man Devlin raised a very serious ques
PRDMF
DEC S ON
tion when ho declared that the Council
has nothing whatever to do with this
problem, as the state law specifies what
kind of a life-saving device shall be
used. Mr. Devlin's statement was
called forth by a resolution before the
Council, authorising the equipment of a
car with the Nelson automatic air de
vice, for a 30-day test on the streets.
This resolution was finally adopted, and
the car is now being equipped. The
Council Included three other fenders,
the Kemp, Keizur and Eclipse, notwith
standing that there Is said to be seine
question as to the city's- responsibility
fn case of an accident and subsequent
damage suit.
"I have no objection to a practical
test of a fender," says Mr. Devlin, "but
I do not see why this Council should
have anything to do with the subject.
The state law prescribes the make of
fender that Is to be used on streetcars,
and why . should not the companies
operating cars accept the responsi
bility? Why should the Council be
called upon to specify any particular
kind, or why should it approve any?
I can see no good reason."

GASH HUSBAND GONE
LEGAL. ACTION REVEALS STORY
OF. FORSAKEN WIFE.
Clande Garletz Invests Bride's
r
Money in. Saloon and Disappears
Leaving Lawyer's Bill.
Attachment proceedings against the
saloon of Claude Garlets, at Tenth and
Hoyt streets, taken yesterday by Con
stable Lou Wagner, brought to light
the pitiful story of a deserted wife, the
bride of three months, and the one who
financed Garletz' venture, which has
now met disaster.
The wife, who lives at the Baton
Hotel, at Thirteenth and Alder streets,
married Garletz after a courtship that
began seven years ago. The woman at
that time was loath to marry a saloon
keeper, and he formed another alli
ance. Three months since he secured a
divorce from his wife, and two days
later married again at Vancouver,
Wash. His bride had $600 and a valu
able diamond ring, which it is alleged
that he secured. The money he used
in buying an interest in the Hoyt-
street saloon, and the diamond he had
fashioned Into a stud. Recently Gar
letz disappeared and his whereabouts
are not known. Then the attorneys
who secured his divorce, Davis, Gra
ham & Cleeton, filed attachment suit
against the saloon for their bill,
amounting to $77. M. A. Thomas, Gar
letz" partner, paid off the attachment.
Airs. Garletz will begin divorce pro
ceedings against her fugitive husband.
IDAHO WITNESS ARRESTED
Woman Who Disappeared on Eve of
Trial Found in Portland.
May Glenn Pierce, a. witness believed
to have been spirited out of the juris
diction of the Idaho courts, where she
is badly wanted to testify in a "white
slave" case, was found and arrested
yesterday afternoon by Detectives Car
penter and Price, a very short time af
ter the request for her detention was
received from the Idaho officers.
Miss Pierce, who has a breezy, wild
west style, at first demurred strongly to
being sent back, but finally agreed to
go without resistance and was turned
over to the mercies of Matron, Simmons
until an Idaho officer can arrive for her.
The case in which she is wanted is
one against two men who ere accused
of taking two young girls from Boise
to Weiser for immoral purposes. The
Pierce woman, a restaurant waitress,
served meals to the party and her evi
dence is believed to be essential to the
case of the prosecution. She was duly
subpenaed and appeared in court, but
was not wanted at the tin-1 and was
excused. Within an hour or two she
was on her way to Tacoma, whence she
came to Portland. The officers believe
that money was paid her to abscond, but
she claims that she was told that she
would be called when wanted, and
that, having a ticket to Tacoma which
expired in a few days, she seized the
opportunity and went. A charge of
criminal contempt, was placed against
her.
PRISONER AGITATES POLICE
Peddler Pretends He Took Poison
and Then Tries to Eat Bottle.
After he had jumped through a win
dow to escape an alleged wronged
and angry husband, Joseph Dixon
was arrested yesterday afternoon
on a warrant for trespass, sworn to by
Ed Schmeer. The incident occurred at
Prescott street and Union -avenue.
Dixon Is a peddler, 53 years of age-.
The prisoner arrived at the station
just in time to partake of the regular
supper. A few minutes later it was re
ported to the desk that he was violently
ill and said to have taken morphine.
Dr. Ziegler was called and pronounced
the man to be shamming. He then said
that he had eaten a letter which dis
agreed with him. The physician gave
mm some medicine ana he was taken
back to the cells. In a few moments
a cry went up that Dixon had found a
piece of broken bottle and was eating
it. Violent handling forced him to dis
gorge the glass, and he was then locked
up in a ceil containing nothing that
would lend Itself to. deeds of despera
tion. Tour tongue Is coated.

DREDGE COST GDTi
Chinook Will Have Lighter
Draft and Small Crew.
WORK WILL BE REGULAR
Vessel Can Hereafter Work Safely at
All Stages of Tide, but Expense
"Will Be Reduced About
$2 000 Monthly.
Reducing her draft from 20 to 1 feet,
substituting oil for coal as fuel, di
minishing her crew from 74 to B0 men.
Installing Improved devices that will
facilitate handling her equipment and r
other changes will combine to lower
the monthly maintenance expense of
the Government dredger Chinook from
$8000 to - between $5000 and $6000, and
permit her to work on the Columbia
River bar at all stages of water.
The vessel, which Is lying at the Ma
rine Iron Works at St. Johns, is rap
idly assuming a more finished aspect,
and will be ready for service August 1.
The overhauling was to have been
ended before that date, but changes In
the specifications, through which oil
tanks of greater capacity were substt
tutea, are responsible for additional
time having been allowed.
Useless Burdens Removed.
Every superfluous weight aboard the
dredger is being removed, so as to' aid
in lessening her draft. From her hold
ballast has been taken in the way of
600 tons of pigiron, 200 tons of Maine
granite and other material, while in
stripping herf house, which was cut
away with the exception of that por
tion amidships where the chief engi
neer's quarters, the bridge and chart-
house are located, 408 tons of struct
ural steel has been sent ashore. Be
sides, there was a carload of lead.
countless heavy articles in the way of
bathtubs, sinks and other equipment
of the officers' quarters and the en
tire 'outfit in the machine shop.
A Welin quadrant davit has been in
stalled on deck, which will be used in
handling the immense suction pipes, so
that lengths can be disjointed without
the necessity of hauling them aboard,
and the old-fashioned davits have been
dispensed with, only where required
for boats. Fuel oil tanks are being lo
cated forward in the lower hold, while
the former immense hawse pipes have
been cut away and new ones Installed,
because anchors to be used are of the
stockless type.
The sand and sediment that are
brought from the bar by the suction
pipes will be dumped in the future by
steam. In the past the gates were
operated by hand. Both sluices have
been gone over and ch-anged to some
extent, and the new boilers, after being
tested with a pressure of 262 pounds
of cold water, are about ready to be
swung aboard.
Capacity 45 Tons a Minute.
The dredge will have a capacity of 45
tons a minute, and that speed can be
maintained during working hours with
out regard to tides; When the Chinook
first began operations on the bar, in
1903, she was hampered because of the
falling water, and at times bumped on
the shoals and was compelled to cease
working, but as there is at least 24 feet
of water on the bar at low tide, her
light draft will eliminate all danger
and necessity for gauging her working
hours to meet tide conditions.
In providing for the use of oil there
has been made possible a material re
duction in the engine-room force, and
a consequent lowering of bulky bunker
supplies. All of which Is an important
item when it Is taken intb considera
tion that in a few months she will save
30 days' cost in expenses. The appro
priation of $200,000, which is the first
ever made for the work of the Chinook
individually, is not expected to be all
spent on alterations, but will afford
sufficient money to operate her about
eight months. There is also before
Congress a bill to allot the Chinook
$50,000. and with proper weather con
ditions there appears no reason why
she cannot dig at the river entrance
over a year.
The progress made on the jetty work,
showing that the channel Is scouring,
is regarded as an excellent aid to the
Chinook, for she will be enabled to
maintain the channel with ease and in
crease its depth as fast as her capacity
will permit.
OFFSHORE CARGOES BOUGHT
Steam Tonnage Is Reported Scarce
for Prompt Loading.
While Portland has secured her share
of steamers to load foreign during the
past few weeks, she has two more in
prospect through the purchase of as
many cargoes of lumber by a local ex
porting firm. The exact destinations
are being withheld until vessels are
chartered for the business.
It is said the material will go to the
Orient, but, owing to the fact that
steam tonnage is scarce, the purchasers
of the cargoes have been delayed in ob
taining vessels on satisfactory terms.
With two cargoes waiting for craft to
be named by Hind, Rolph & Co., there
are four in sight for Summer loading in
addition to vessels known to be coming.

The cause of Rheumatism is an excess of uric acid in the blood. The
aratie impurity gets Into the circulation by absorption, usually because of con
stipation, weak kidneys, and other systemic Irregularities. Then the blood be
comes weak and sour and irritating urate particles are formed in this vital fluid.
When in this impure condition the blood can not furnish the necessary amount of
nourishment to the different muscles, tendons, nerves and ligaments of the body.
Instead, it constantly steeps them in the briny acrid matter, and the gritty, urate
particles collect in the joints, which causes the pains, aches and soreness of
Bheumatism. Liniments, plasters, etc. may relieve the acute pain of an attack
of Bheumatism, but such treatment does not reach the blood and therefore can
have no permanent good effect. There Is but one way to cure Bheumatism and
tat Is to purify the blood of the acid poison. S. S. S. goes into the circulation
and attacks the disease at Its head. It removes the cause for the reason that it
Is the greatest of all blood purifiers. It filters out every trace of the sour, in
flammatory matter, cools the acid-heated circulation, adds richness and nourish
ment to the blood and permanently cures Bheumatism. S. S. S. does not patch;
up, it cures permanently. S. S. S. is especially valuable as a remedy for Bheuma
tism because it does not contain a particle of harmful mineral in any form. It
is purely vegetable, a fine tonic as well as blood purifier. Book on Rheumatism

MY SUCCESS IS PROOF
THAT MY METHODS
ARE CORRECT
The proof of a physician's ability is to be
found in the results he obtains, and though I
am not at liberty to supply individual names
of patients as references, the marks of su
perior skill and service are so prominent and
conspicuous as to render my doing so un
necessary. Estimate for yourself my volume of
practice as compared with the practice of
other physicians. Is there the slightest prob
ability that if unable to back up all my
claims I would have won and retained the
foremost place among specialists treating
men? Could I fail to cure and yet succeed
as I have? Have you ever heard of a prom
ise of mine remaining unfulfilled, or of one
of my patients being dissatisfied? Consider
these things, and then come and consult me
In regard to your case.
Contracted Ailments
Be sure your cure is 'thorough.
Not one of my patients has ever
had a relapse after being dis
charged as cured, and I cure in
less time than the ordinary forms
of treatment require.
Varicose Veins
Many who are but slightly af
flicted with varicose veins believe
that the trouble is of little conse

Varicose veins is an ailment of a
progressive nature. As it advances,

the general health is impaired. I
