iMoence to prevent tho ar
rest of tho senator when tho Indict
ments were returned last April in
order that Borah might bo free to
conduct the Haywood prosecution.
Although several other prominent
men wore Indicted with him, Sena
tor Bornh has been granted tho
privilege of a separate trial. Wit
nesses have been subpoenaed for
Monday, the dato set for tho begin
ning of tho trial, and lt is believed
that there will be no delay, as Borah
has been insistent in demnnding an
Immediate trial.
It is likely that tho trial of George
Pettlbono, who wub indicted wit,h
Haywood and Moyer for tho mur
der of ex-Governor Stoun'onberg,
will have to bo postponed na a result
of tho Borah trial. In that case, at
torneys for tho Western Federation
of Miners will probably demand his
release on ball. If Bornh should.be
convicted it is gonornlly believed
that tho case against Pottibono nnd
Moyer would bo dropped. Borah
has been the mainstay of tho state in
the prosecution of tho federation
leaders, and If ho should bo con
victed of n crlmo It would servo to
thoroughly discredit the state In the
Stcunonborg case.
Tho case for tho government will
bo conducted by Attorneys B. M. C.

Portland, Sept. 21. After being
out 20 minutes tho Jury In the Rey
nolds murder caso brought in a ver
dict of acquittal last night.
o
Rig Chiefs to Testify.
New York. 8opt. 2. Rockefeller
and the flvo great chiefs of tho Stand
ard Oil havo been called upon to
.testify In tho government suit to
dissolve the Standard.
Thero are two deep and boggy
financial morasses In the dismal
Oregon TniBt & SavlngB bank
swnmp through which tho simple
minded depositors nnd creditors
havo not been able to wado without
feeling Ilko cussing Bomobody. Both
appear In Receiver DovIIu'b report.
Tho moro tho bulky document la
analyzed tho deeper and boggier be
comes the Bwamp. Tho flrBt morass
is tho list of 1SG soparato accounts
under "loans and discounts," aggre
gating $326,834.02, not ono of
which boarB indorsement or Is rep
resented by collateral. Tho other
morass Is the $275,000 worth of
overdrafts, a Blnglo one of which
nmounts'dOMnora than $100,000,
and bo far as appears In tho Dovlln
report not a cent of this mighty
sum Is secured. In other wordB,
thero Is a grand total of moro than
$584,000 for which tho bank cannot
show a scrap of security othor than
the Individual notes of tho custom
ers, in tho cnBO of tho frco and easy
loans made, nnd with nothing but
tho well or bad placed confldonco In
tho dosposltors for tho ovordrnffs.
Staring out from all this chaos Is
tho bold fact that tho bank allowed
ono single customor to carry an
overdraft In excess of tho bank'
total paid-up capital. Two and ono
hnlf times tho bank's capital wan
carried In overdrafts, and threo nnd
one-hnlf times, nearly, was carried
in unsecured loans.
Accounts such ns that of a moro
nutomobilo repair shop which could
ns a firm borrow $12,000, and the
individual partners $2000 moro, and
on top of this bo extonded tho cour
tosy of n $947.70 ovedrnft, Is nn-
othor example- o'f tho Chndwlcklan
finnnco system which took placo
within tho plastered walls of tho
bank on the corner.
A fraternal order, local In char
acter, through tho porsonal friend
ship of ono of Its officers with the
cashier of tho bank, was nblo to bor
row $33,000 without scratch of ln
doresoment or collateral. Sovoral
"papor" enterprises, ono of which
is defunct already, another tangled
up hopelessly in litigation, and in
all of which Cashier Morris was In
terested or maintained wnrm
porsonal friendships with tholr pro
motors, aro creditors of tho bank
to tho tune of thousands.
Partners in some concern would
borrow money on a joint nolo, then
other Itoms Indicate that tho part
ners would borrow individually and
indorse (without offer of collateral)
one anotherB' paper,
Tho White Salmon Valloy bank (
Mooro and Morris Institution) would
borrow money on tho Orogon Trust
& Savings bank, and tho Stato bank
of Ranlor (another Mooro nnd Mor
lils institution) would indorse tho
note.
"Improvement," "Development,"
Irrigation" enterprises in which
some one of the officials of the bank
wero Interested In ono way or an
other would go to tho bank to got
money and the officials would in
dorse tho loans.
