age Claim. ' , '
By order of the court a verdict for
......the defense was returned by Jury In
the United Stated circuit court this
: morning in the case, of Charles S. Van
Auker. former cashier of ,the , Kalnier
State bank, who sued : the National
n..t mimnanv m.A llrtm- TV. . Allffn-
for i5,000 damages for false arrest and
Imprisonment.' . ' '.', '
Yesterday afternoon J. Couch .Flan
ders, for the defense, moved for a di
rected verdict, which motion was taken
under consideration by Judge Wolver
ton. 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.
Pinkerton detectives learned. - accord
. trig to their reports, that three ex
convicts had been In the vicinity of
llalnier several days and that they had
, left- there soon after the robbery was
. discovered. . - ,
- None of these men ,was ever arrested
for the crime. - ; ' -
Allen, arrived at Rainier September
10 and began an investigation of tha
reported robbery In the Interests of the
saretr company. Ho learned among
otherMhlngs, according, to hl testi
mony that Van , Auker had been a
heavy loser at faro bank, which at
'. once aroused hla suspicions. Later he
; conferred with his brother, Harrison
Allen, attorney for the Fifth Judicial
dlHtrict, who made an official investi
gation. , --
Detectives were engaged to Investi
gate Van Auker'a habits. Allen swom
to the complaint for the cashier's ar
rest upon the advice of his brother, ha
claimed. ' Ths authorities falling to
tct. Van Auker was never prosecuted,
owing to lack of evidence and failure
to make out a case. It was alleged. :
The court held that G. W. Allen had
acted merely as an agent of the surety
company by which Van Aiker was
bonded,, after a careful investigation of
the circumstances and upon the advice
of his brother, the district attorney
Judge Wolverton cited numerous de
cisions of state and federal courts in
similar cases and went into , tha evi
dence in detail. '
- Owing to the showing made by- the
defense that Alien bad acted upon the
auggestion of an officer of the law,
neither he Allen as agent of the
surety company, nor the company Iti
self, could he held responsible fr the
action , taken which led to Van Auker'a
arrest. Judge wolverton aeciaeo. Ac
' cordingly. he dircted the Jury to re-
turn a verdict -in favor of the defense.
Counsel for the plaintiff asked time
In which to file a bill of . exceptions to

Trust Companies of Oregon
..Say Amendment to. Bank

Dearly Insist Measure Is
Not Necessary, ,
Vlgbrona nrotest against the t revi
sions or KtatA Kenator Ka lev's Dill
amending the state banking act, which
lias paswed the senate, is being lodged
by the larger' maiorltv of the SS trust
companies now Derating in Portland. : 1
JNumBerB of lobbyists, as representa
tives oi -tne local trust companies, nave
been in Salem working up aantiment an
tagonistic to the bill, which would
cause a loss Of thousands of dollars to
local concerns if the contentions of Its
enemies may -be, believed. More - than
60 of the companies will make an or
ganised eirort to oring aoout tne aeieat
of tha measure. - "
The amendment' in Its wording is
greatly similar to tlie present banking
law. but in effect Is widely different in
that it would compel all Concerns not
aomg a oanking 1 business -in Oregon,
and yet using the word "trust'1 In their
firm titles, to either drop that word
from their firm names ' or Install a
banking department and thus be made
to comply . with the provisions of the
Banning law. ;
' , Senator BaUey's Aim.
"-! Senator Bailey, who introduced .the
amendment in the senate, contended that
the act was aimed 4 at three Portland
firms now doing a banking business and
calling themselves trust companies.
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."
That this is. not the real object of the
bill, but rather that it is an attempt to
create a monopoly on the Word "trust"
in corporate names. Is. in effect, the
declaration made by. officers of the
larger trust companies.
Gives Bank Monopoly.
"The 'act would simply give banking
concerns the sole right to Use that word-
in tneir nrm names." said w. Y.
Masters, attorney and secretary of the i
Paciflo Title & Trust company. Failing
building. "It would allow anyone, as
before, to conduct a trust business, but
would not allow them to signify suqh
in tneir nrm name. , . - .
."The provision which would compel
trust companies to either drop a part
of their present titles -or be made Mo
comply with the banking law, shows
now snauow ta tne pin, ror merely cy
dropping that word from their title
they could continue doing the same
business as before ana yet not be sub
jected to the operations of -the banking
aCt.''--. - :-
Admlttlng that perhaps the oblect
Of the bill Is to bring trust companies
doing a , banking business under the
banking act, officials of local trust
companies insist that It Is not neces
sary that It so seriously affect all trust
companies, the majority of which do no
banking business wnatever, and in real
ity do little trust business. - ,
Would, Be Hardship,
"Such a law," ' said Mr. Masters,
"would simply require that more than
60 corporations in Portland alone
change- their firm names. They would
have no reason to comply with the bank
ing act, as tney ao no oanxing ousmess.
"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.

Salem, Or., Jan, 29. Support and con
demnation of Governor Chamberlain's
stand on the flood of salary bills In
creasing the pay of present occupants
of county offices was voiced In tha sen
ate this morning soon after the gov
ernor's message on the subject had been
read, .... :'-S .::'":' ;Aj',v,;!..;,:-
.Senator Selling took the lead 'in car
rylng out - the suggestions of ; the gov
ernor f moving toi refer to committee
several salary bills that came from ths
house with Instructions to amend them
to provide that increased pay-shall not
take effect until eifter the expiration of
the term of the incumbents. Several
bills hade been summarily disposed of
in this way. Senator Caldwell objected
to similar . treatment of a bill " increas
ing the salary of the county school
superintendent of Yamhill county from
1900 to $1200. He said one superin
tendent had , resigned because . of nig
gardly pay, and be considered the bill
one of urgency. ;
Nottingham said ha did pot -think
m senate snouid pay much attention
to "the threats of the governor" as tha
senate had been known to pass bills
over the veto. Generally he waa in
favor of refusing salary -raise to in
cumbents, but there are cases, h said,
where It should be dona1 .'
Frank J. MlUer said he did not think
the governor meant to threaten or
undertake to say that he would pot ap
prove a meritorious measure. Albee
thought that the introducer of the bill
ought to be advised as to the necessity,
and he moved for a. recess until 1:30
o clock to give him opportunity to con-
ier wun- iua iuiiuiii cuuoir umuio.
He wanted to consider every bill on its
merits. -"... -' - .-. ''-
The senate Is evidently disposed to
pass some of the , salary . increases
despite the governor s message and then
make the plea of necessity for. them.
This plan will he defeated if too many
are sunt through and the leaders will
therefore confer and try to restrain
those where there Is fto promise-for a
successful showing. t
