"Clearing houjflo banks did not extend uld to the Title, Guarantee nnd Trust company because they knew its condition whs bad and they (IccldtM that the only safe course was to cut the cancer out," said the president of one of 'Portland's large lunks this morrrtng. "The clearing house, committee made careful invcSti gatfnn of the Title Guarantee company's assets and liabilities nnd became convinced that a re ceivership was Inevitable. It was useless to drain the resources of the solvent banks In order to save this ono concern. It was the weak spot and now that the worst Is known I believe wa shall have no further serious trouble. In my oplnlrrf the remaining banks are all fti sound condition."

Receiver Hill, when asked to make a statement concerning: the receiver ship program, said: Eponpiny th Prog-ram. "Economy, will be the principal pro gram. I have dismissed all employes ex cepting a few necessary assistants. There will not bf a five-cent piece spent unless it is Bpessary. we will within a few days get the affairs of the company In shape; and administer them for the benefit of .the creditors, and will hang on to every dollar that wo can keep for the depositors.
