This morning the court decided in favor of the defense. ; . Van Auker was bound hand and foot In the State bank at Rainier, Septem ber 3. 1906. Something like 11600 of the bank's funds was missing. The cashier's story was to the effect that , two men had held him up at the muzzle of ft gun. bound him with a rope, ran ' sucked the vaults . and 'disappeared.

They must either comply with the banking act or drop the word trust,'" he said. "That is the object of the bill. Of course, some of them will kick, but the organized trust companies that do banking business want the bill passed. It is intended to strengthen the banking law and prevent abuse of the, word 'trust.' It makes all-companies. under that head comply with the banking act."

"Many of these 'firms have been in business in Portland for years, and are well, known under their present names, and It would be a great hardship to them to have to change them for no real reason whatever." - - - Answering the complaint of , advo cates of the Bailey bill, who assert that the word "trust" contained Hv the cor porate name of a firm leads many to believe that such is a banking institu tion, and that for this reason the word Is being prostituted, officials of local trust companies declare that there can be no such thing as the abuse of the word by irresponsible persons.
