dealt yeterdjr to the proposed reorran-
ballon plan by which It wm hoped to
par all depositor dollar for dollar and
reopen the bank. Instead of the 1100,
000 of expected subscriptions to Horn
telephone' bonds, only $11,800 was sub-
acrlbed durlnr the entire day and v try
ing. : When the workers ceased ' their
labors at o'clock last night and footed
tip the results there was expressed the
keenest disappointment that has been
felt since the undertaking was embarked
upon. ' '." '. .
."Unless something can be done at
cnce to arouse the backward depositors
io realise that this is their last and
only chance to say their money, the ef'
forts that are being made by the De
positors' association will fail," said Pres
ident Jonn 1 Day. "wmie ne smau

Dies are- not comlnr forward fast

I TVe still hope tbat Monday the tide
will turn stronger In favor of the bond
subscriptions, and tbat wo will be able
to pull the plan through to success, but
it - will tax me unuea enon ana co
operation of every depositor in this
bank, and nothing short of that will be
sufficient"
By close application on the part of
' Receiver Devlin and a fortunate chain
Of circumstances the - filing of liens
gainst the Board of Trade building has
been averted, and an arrangement has
been oompleted with Dr. K. H. Parker,
owner of the ground, by which the build
ing will be completed within a year.
But the depositors confront a chance
of the bank's money that has been In
vested In It. Should the bank fall to
redeem the building within one year, by
repaying the investment that fs to be
. put Into it, the building will pass to
those who complete it, and the bank will
lose Its part of the Investment
"There has been something over $10.-
vuo invested or ua oana in tnis build
ing" said .Receiver Devlin. 1 "I retard
this Investment as in the nature of an
overdraft. The building company was
handling the matter and was being sup
plied . with funds by the bank. The
bank held the stock of the building
company a coiisierat, not ror notes, out
to secure the overdraft - We have been
forced to turn over . the stock of the
building company to the men who are
to rurnish money ror completion of the
structure. There was nothing else to
do,v excepting to permit liens to be filed

There are outstanding claims amount

from which the bank's Iqulty In the
ter now stands, should the bank suo-
ceea -in reueominr tne building within
the yar its investment will represent
thnt much of an asset for the reorgan
ized " bank. If redemption is not ac
complished the ' money Invested in it
by the bank will be a total Jobs.
Receiver Devlin filed a petition yes
terday in the circuit court asking for
an order directing him to enter into a
contract with Dr. E. IL Parker, pro
viding for the completion of the Board
or Trade building by the Utter. The
petition of the receiver' cites, that he is
In possession of all the stock of the
Board of Trade Building company as
collateral for a $100,000 loan made by
the bank prior to the recelverenio, - and
as a result controls the build Ins; corpo
ration. It also states that there, is a
Fr?d.,:noat,nJr V Indebtedness i against
the building of about $35,000. ' ' :

between the receiver and Dr. Parker

length of time, and that the floating

The contract further provides that if

contract the receiver or nls nominees
shall renav all moneys expended oy ur.

est thereon then the building shall re

pay, the building Is to become the prop

Judge Qantenbeln heard the petition
of the receiver this afternoon and di
rected the receiver to enter into tne con
tract with Dr. Parlcor for the com
pletion of the bis structure.

advised of yesterday's work of the De

"The bank cannot re-open Its doors
until practically every depositor has
subscribed at least 15 per cent of his

Styles In Millinery.
Brilliant charming and gracefully
fashioned hats in the styles for this
fall and winter are shown on the floors
of the Wonder Millinery company's
store at First and Morrlsoa. Much of
this has been brought out by I. E.
Solomon, who returned the past week
from New York. From the style centers
of two continents he has gathered the
handsomest collection of pattern hats
that It has ever been the privilege of
the house to present One could not see
liner hats by Georgette. Caroline Re
beaux, Esther Mayer, Csmllle Roger, G.
Suaanne, Malaon Lewis, Ponyannge,
Charlotte and Vlrot.
There are acores and scores of model
hats that make the store a palace of
gorgeous ueauty, nats neavy witn
plumage, elegant with flowera, sounding
a note of simplicity and at the same
time artistic and exquisitely fetching.
The great drooping brims are the new
features ln shapes, while feathers are
of course the favorite in the realm of
trimmings. On Broadway, New York,
one sees more of purple than sny other
color, says Mr. Solomon, and In antici
pation of the erase hitting Portland, the
Wonder is stocked heavily with purple
hats and flowers. Colors range from
seal brown to a lighter brown and rus
set shades, while garnet, navy blue,
green and purple are prominent. The
scope and beauty of the display at the
Wonder will at once win approbation.
