It arm R E I DENIES DEBT Seacoast Railway Receiver's Claim Declared False. MONEY NEVER DEMANDED Alleged Scheme to Prevent Building From Astoria to Xehaiem Is De clared Unrighteous Road's Transaction Reviewed. Absolute denial of the statement that he Is Indebted to the receiver of the Portland. Oregon. Seacoast Railway Com pany, was made yesterday by William Reld, the accredited builder of an ag gregate of 193 miles of railway on both sides of the Willamette River, wbo declares that the report of the receiver made 10 days ago evidently Is false and that the facts prove It. "It was a surprise to me," he said, "to learn, October 27, 1908. that after all the debt In th company had been paid in full except those due to me for cash disbursements, the United States courts, without notice to any of the company's directors, appointed a re ceiver, but It was a greater surprise to see In th paper last week that the receiver reported that 'William Reld. of Portland,' Is Indebted to that com pany, when I have evidence to show that I never owned more than one share of stock and this only to qualify me as secretary.. Stock Held as Trustee. Mr. Reld then exhibited a contract entered into with W. H. and W. A. Montgomery, who now appear to be the only creditors of the company, of which contract the following Is a copy. LOS ANGELES, cal. To W. H. A W. A- Montromery. Los Angeles Referring to the contract entertj Into and executed at Los Angelas tnis amy oetwean you ana tne fore land. Oregon. Bra Coast Railway Company, wherein it la agreed that the 60 per cent of the stock of that company, which stands in my name ana wnicn i noia ae trustee, le to be at your demand transferred to you ' or to any person you may designate. I beg to say that 1 consent to this agreement, and shall hold that stock as your trustee as se curity to you for rarayment of the Indebt edness which said railway company has contracted to you. and should you desire me at any time hereafter to transfer to you or a'y person you may designate auch stock. I s'isl!, on demand, make such transfer, conditioned only that such transfer, when demanded by you. Is made only a a col lateral security and to enable you to obtain rrpayroant of the Indebtedness of 10.000. and 6 per cent Interest due by aaid railway company to you. WILLIAM REID. Trustee. "In view of this document," he con tinued, "It Is plain that I never owned 60 per cent of the stock, as the courts of Oregon heretofore have decreed. Hence tbe receiver never demanded a dollar from me." Further reviewing the history of the company. Mr. Reld declared the al leged scheme to prevent tbe building of the road from Astoria to Nehalem a most unrighteous one, saylntr that H. Hawgood, who In 1307 was elected president of the company, had gone over the route In person and declared the practicability of carrying out this project. Slonev Spent by Hanrgood. "When Mr. Hawgood was . elected president." Mr. Reld added. "I was made secretary. He secured authority to borrow $60,000 from the Montgom ery, who are multl-milllonalres in Lo Angeles, and who were to receive 0 per cent of the stock aa security. 1 wa to bold this stock as trustee for them. The directors consented and the contracts were drawn up. The stock was placed in my name as trustee and Mr. Hawgood received the 850.000. He alone had charge of the expenditures. -He paid (36.000 of It to H, Melville Walker., of New Tork, for obtaining 83.6U0.O0O of first mortgage bonds sold on account of the railway, and within It months thereafter President Haw good alone spent the remaining $16,000 In purchasing 80 acres of terminal land at Clatsop near Oearhart, upon th Astoria k Coluribla River Railroad and he also paid 'with part of thla $16,000 all of the dobts of the Portland, Oregon. Sea, Cot Railway In full In oash. except my salary and $637 of cash, which I paid out of my own pocket, and repayment of which I had not asked. "So there was no occasion for a re ceiver on the 36th or 27th of October, los. when he applied for one In per son at Portland. Or. Suddenly, In the face- of these tacts, which I am pre pared to swear to, on President Haw good's application and arrival in Port land, he obtained a receiver and he appointed C H. Warner as that receiv er, with consent of the United States court, and from that day till now I have never met Mr. Warner except once, and aside from the railway com pany's papers, which I gave him, be has never demanded from me any moneys. He could not, for I never had a dollar of the company's money In my possession. Yet. In bis report to ine United States court last week. I am told he says that William Reld. of Portland, and the Lewis ft Clark Con struction Company, a Portland firm, are Indebted to his railway company in large sums, yet he admits that the only debt of that railway company Is $52,000, due to W. H. and W. A. Mont gomery, who advanced $60,000. and In terest." READING-ROOM IS OPEN Holiday Hour (or Library and Branches Are Announced.

BOISE IS RIVAL OF RENO Lawyers Would Stop Issuance of Di vorces of Convenience., BOISE, Idaho. Dec. 24. (SpeclaW Idaho loses Its reputation as a divorce center, Boise ceases to be the Mecca for Reno's overflow of matrimonial bond breakers. If a resolution recently of the Ada County Bar Association goes Into effect, providing for one year's residence Instead of six months, as is now the case, before application oan be made for divorce. With less notoriety than Reno. Boise Is a rendesvoua of society men and women of many states who seek separa tion. One recent notable case was that of Valentine Winters, president of the Day ton Traction Company. Dayton. O.. a roan of wealth and social prominence. Winters lived In fashionable quarters In Boise for six months, snd then ap plied for a divorce from his wife, who bitterly contested th petition on th grounds of religious scruples. Judge Fremont Wood refused th de cree snd scored Winters for coming to Idaho to "purchase" a divorce from his was unsuccessful: others of equal prornlnenoe were more fortunate. Many migrated to Idaho from New York and kept their Identity secret, and the divorce mills work overtime. While the Ada County Bar Association did not adopt the two following resolu tions dealing with the same subject. It placed the stamp of approval on them after deliberation: . "First That all marriages within six months' time sfter a decree has been obtained in Idaho be held absolutely yold. whether the offender be married in Idaho or In another state. "Second That divorces be granted from bed and board without the right to either party to remariT. for the same caure for which absolute divorce can now be obtained." . . One In every five marriages In Ada County is a failure, according to the rec ords. About 10 per cent of the divorces Is attributed to non-residents who come for the express purpose of obtaining a decree and who afterwards return home.
