THE MORNING OREGONTAN, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 5. 1914. 13 AMI -KM !.!. MATTHES AND SNOW ARE HELD IN JAIL W. J. Summers, Also Arrested for Alleged Bank Swindle, Furnishes Bail.. GRAND JURY TO BE CALLED Holland Vice Consul Declares Ig norance of American Methods Responsible for His Plight. Accomplices Are Blamed. In default of ball. J. W. Matthes, lo cal Vice-Consul for the Netherlands, -nH Rnhert W. Snow, an alleged accom plice in committing forgery whereby the International Mortgage Bans, i Apeldoorn, Holland, was defrauded ol large sums, were committed to the rnnnfr Jnll vesterdav. w J Summers, arrested on a like charge, succeeded in raising a JB000 surety bond yesterday and was released pending action in his .case by the grand Jury. All three will be taken before the September grand Jury, which will be called together next Tuesday by District Attorney Evans and will begin work the following day. Mr. Matthes made a long statement to Deputy District Attorney Murphy yesterday. In talking with newspaper men he attributed his troubles to the others arrested and their alleged ac complices. He says he was made a catspaw cf by those clever enough to take advantage of him. He admitted, however, that as notary public he ac knowledged his own signature in carry ing out a $5000 Crook County land deal. , , . Beyond asserting that he is Innocent of the charge against him, Mr. Sum mers had nothing to say. Mr. Snow says that he is the victim of circum stances and that the others, particu larly Matthes, are "passing the buck to him. He declares it is sought to tnake him the goat, but says he can straighten the situation out and show Just where the blame lies as soon as he can arrange bail. Others Blamed by Mr. Matthes. That his present difficulties grew out of the fact that he was used by others was the assertion of Mr. Matthes yester day He further denied that he has profited personally by his transactions with the Apeldoorn bank, but said that he had been victimized by others shrewder than himself. He further laid his trouble largely to his ignorance of American business methods. "One man, whose name I do not care to mention, came to see me once about a loan," said Mr. Matthes. He was well recommended and I was favorably impressed ith him. He asked me how much commission I was paid and I told him 1 per cent. He told me it was not enough and that he could arrange it so that I would make more. He proposed that the ad ditional commissions be split between us. "The result was that we made bigger percentage loans, so that more money was paid for commissions. I thought that as long as the mortgages were below the evident value of the prop erty the interests of the bank would be safeguarded. Operntor Becomes Bolder. "This man became bolder as we went on. He knew I would be the goat If anything went wrong. He even went as high as 25 per cent in eome cases, obtaining this amount from the borrower as brokerage for obtaining the loan. This man delib erately took advantage of my ig norance of American ways of doing business in order to enrich himself. If I had never met him, I would never bave met the crooked contractors later. "This man later had me at his mercv. He made threats to me that if I did not come through with more money whenever he wanted, he woulo. write to the bank in Holland and ex pose me. When President Bakker was here, a year ago, our business affairs were mixed and I wanted to tell him the real status of the case then, but thought that if I waited a year and business conditions Improved our af fairs would come out all right. On the contrary, the opposite has happened. At that time, however, I telegraphed Mr. Bakker to come back from New 5'ork, when he was on his way home, but he answered that he could not re turn. Contractor's Default Told. "Before this trouble came up, I was making loans on buildings being erected by different contractors and the business went on all right until J was defrauded by a contractor who was erecting a number of houses. He got me to keep paying money to him, ehowlng me bills that later proved to be for bouses upon which we had no mortgage. Later he failed and left the city with about 200 mechanics liens against his partly finished houses end to protect the bank I had to pay these claims. "I was besieged with laborers and material men who had not been paid. There was about J25.O0O due and they looked to me for the money. I realized that If these liens were foreclosed it would entail additional loss to the 1 hank and so in order to protect what ' was already invested, it was necessary to put up about $20,000 additional. I took over 12 houses, partly completed, from this contractor with the hope of putting them in shape to sell or rent and get the money back. TTae of Dummies Admitted. "I discussed the situation with Snow, who was building houses also and to whom loans had been made. In order to get money. I bought vacant lots, bnow making the arrangements and I furnishing the money. In order to make the mortgages available for the bank we had to use dummies. I paid Fnow certain amounts to take care of the bills. A part of this went for his living expenses. Snow got the men to sign as dummies." The books show that Snow got about 164.000 from the Apeldoorn bank and property deeded back to it by Snow amounts to about 130.000, say the au thorities. "Summers came to my office to make some loans," continued Mr. Matthes. telling me he had good land in East ern Oregon, of which there were sev eral sections. One tract was said to be worth $8000. and I took his woro for it. This Is what was known as the Twltchell tract. This was sold to Mallory, a Californian. Summers said he was a good man and would pay the Interest. Summers valued the farm lands at three times the amount I would loan on it and the returns would cover up the unpaid Interest. M Ismnnnjcemrnt la Conceded. "So far as I am concerned. I never made a transaction In which it was not my purpose that the money should go to the bank. It was mismanagement on my part. I have no doubt, but I was taken advantage of by people who knew I was up against it and that I could be influenced. They knew I would be the goat. "Every cent I got In that way was paid out in the interests of the bank. I did not benefit personally.

JOB FINDER IS SOUGHT COMMITTEE IS ARRANGING UNEMPLOYED PROBLEM. Land Clearing:, Road Building and Other Work May Be Provided During Winter. The first step '.n plans of the city, county and state to provide work for the unemployed in Portland next Win ter Is to be the selection of a secre tary to represent the City Commission, the County Board of Commissioners and the State Board of Control. This was decided yesterday at a meeting of the official seasonal employment com mittee at which the unemployment problem was discussed at length. At the meeting were all members of the City Commission and Rufus Holman, representing the County Board. Al though they were notified, the mem bers of the State Board of Control, of which Governor West Is chairman, did not attend the meeting. Commissioner Brewster, to whom was referred the matter of proposing persons for the position of secretary, reported that he had two men in mind. One is Captain Andrews of the Salva tion Army, who has had much experi ence in the unemployment problem. Mr. Brewster said he had conferred with Captain Andrews but the latter doubted If he would be able to take the place. He will be urged further. If his services cannot be secured an effort will be made to get a man named Pauley, who was in charge of the "Hotel De Gink," a refuge estab lished in Seattle last Winter for the unemployed. The plan is to have the city and the county share in the expense of paying the secretary a substantial salary. His work will begin at once. It 1b planned to have him go into the rural districts and get land-owners to let contracts for clearing of land during the Winter. It would be his duty to work up var ious plans to be suggested by the com mittee on employment. It was decided by the committee that its function should be not only to fur nish work for Idle men, but also to encourage private concerns and indi viduals to furnish work. County Commissioner Holman an nounced to the committee that he ex pects the county to have money on hand during the Winter to give work to men on some of the roads. DR.
