The Portland Journal tells of the downhill of O. M. Wliitum, the Port land traveling man who was arrested at Walla Walla a few days aso for passing worthless checks in Eugemt several weeks ago and 'ii.j brought here by Sheriff Fisk who is now on his way to Walla Walla. The Journal says: Fallen from the hliih estate and humiliated and disgraced, G. M. Whitson, well-known In this city as the representative of the Colorado Fuel & Iron company, the Guggen heim syndicate, Is under arrest at Walla Wulla chained with passing worthless checks upon the manager of the Hotel Smeede and the mana ger of Jhe Chambers Hardware com pany jf Eugene. The checks were not for large amounts, 30 and $40, and seemB a travesty upon the big business deals that Whitson has put through during his career In Port land. To his friends the small crimes to which Whitson Beems to have stooped bear with the news of them a diutlnct feeling of sorrow for a man who has had so brilliant a fu ture as Whitson. Whitson superintended the sale by his employers al all the steel that Is contained In the Wells. Fargo build ing and personally attended to Its delivery. He sold millions of tons of rails to the O. R. N. company and the Hill lines and was considered one of the Steel company's best men. His troubles commenced with the "woes of the sky-scraper." His deliveries of tha steel frame work for the bla express building were slow and there was much complaint that Whitson was not attending to business. The affairs of the Steel company were not managed as the head office thought they should be and Whitson was brought up with a sharp turn by his employers. To his cottage at Seaside Whitson retreated for sev eral weeks and in his absence the order came for his discharge. Drink is said to have caused Whit son's downfall. He drank to excess while in Portland and when he went to Southern Oregon, ostensibly for the purpose of selling hardware for a San Francisco firm, he Is said to have continued bis debauches. Need ing money he went to the proprietor of the Smccrte hotel In Eugene and asked him to cash a check on a Port land bank -for $110. He then cashed a $4(1 eheek on the same bank with the Chambers Hardware Company. Tho next morning Whitson left Eugene for Portland, whence he de parted for Walla Walla. The oheeki came back to Eugeno marked "no funds," and after consultation with the Eugene authorities the hotel and hardware people requested Sheriff Flsk, of Eugene, to cause Whltson's arrest. Requisition pnpers were ask ed for at Salem today and granted and Whitson will be brought back to Eugeno for trial. ,,1SHO,'SSlKTOX,GHT Rt liev. Charles Scadding, D.
