OREGON SAVINGS-WILL
OPEN WITH
NEW CAPITAL
Plan Is Backed by Local Capitalists to Resume Business
of Financial Institution With Increased Funds
as-Sdbn as Receiver Makes Report.
Backed by strong financial interests,
action ia being considered looking to
the rehabilitation and early opening of
the Oregon Trust & Savlnga bank, re
cently auspended on account of failure
of tta officer to realise cash In tin
emergency on Its securities. It la said
the propoaed reorganisation will result
In a aettlcroent that will clear the bank
of lta present troubles, release It from
the - receivership, and place It In a
Strong position In the community.
Officers of the tank are reticent aa to
the proposed plana, W. C Morris,
cashier of the Institution; said today:
"There is nothing; definite to be said
at the present time. We all would, of
course, like to see the bank reorgan
ised and hope It ma be done. But as
yet such a movement has not assumed
a form that would warrant any state
ment regarding It."
Various stories are current reaaruina
the character Of the reorganisation,
and' the amount of capital of the pro
posed bank. One statement Is to the
effect that the capital will tie iftuo.vuu.
another places It at 7ou,uuu.

Pendeton, Or., Aug. SO. It Is under
stood that Instead of enforcing the $10

make readv for the change.
It Is said that all the money due the
Indians at this time will be paid now,
but that at the end of six months the
trilin mill be clans! fled and those Who j

JOURNEY FOR HEALTH
IS FATAL TO WOMAN
(Journal Special Service.)
Chicago, Aug. 30. A trip taken to
the southwest for the purpose of re
gaining health led Mrs. Emma Johnson
to the Insane asylum and at last to the
grave.
Returning from a visit to relatives In
New Mexico, Mrs. Johnson was pro
vided with a "scalper's" ticket by rel
atives. The ticket was made out to
identify a blonde, but Mrs. Johnson
was a Drunette, and. being totally un
acquainted with what was expected of
her, did not deny the manner in which
the ticket came into her possession.
Being unable to pay her fare, she was
put off the train In the middle of the
great Southwestern desert, and left to
wander without money. When found
by a railroad section gang, she was
staggering in the aun, miles from hab
itation, almost crazed by thirst, fatigue
and hunger. Her mind, shattered by
the terrible experience, never recovered
its balance. She died todav In an bmv.
