RESULT OF A RUN.
Failure of Two Banks in
Oregon.
ANOTHER ONE IN DANGER
Branches of the United States Bank
ing Company at Gervais and
Junction City in Trouble.
Special to THE MORNING CALL.

GERvAIs, Or, Jan. 81 - The United
States Banking Company suspended pay
ment here yesterday morning. There was
a run on it Saturday afternoon and all the
coin it had here was drawn out. AT the
time Of opening the bank on Monday morn
ing the cashier refused to resume business.
owing to the fact that large crowd had
gathered about the building. The United
States Banking Company has three banks
one at Gervais the main office, one at juno
ton City, Or, and one at Sheridan, Or.
The Junction City branch had run to-day
and closed its doors as soon as all the funds
,>were exhausted. SO far no run has been
made on the Sheridan branch.
The president of the company is at pres
ent in Chicago and is expected to return im-
mediately. Until his return there is no
way Of getting at the condition of affairs.
There is between $4,000 and $4,000 on de-
post Ia the Gervais branch unpaid. in
amounts ranging from $500 down to small
sums. Most of the Gervais merchants drew
out Saturday, causing the run, and the
farmers are yet unpaid.
A rumor Of the unsafe condition of the
firm was started on the streets Saturday
noon and the run followed. The depositors
we're not b0isterous, and the majority firmly
believe that upon the presidents return
things will be arranged satisfactorily TO all
creditors. This afternoon all the company s
property In Gervais was attached by Sheriff
Knight for claims aggregating $500. Gu
account of the absence of the president the
stockholders are unable to make any state
ments. but meeting will be called here
Immediately on his return. All three banks
are small concerns.

THE RIVERSIDE MESS.
Assembiyman Lynch Apprehensive
of CorruDtiou.

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 24-The Senate COM
mittee which has under discussion the
Riverside County division bill met again
this afternoon and listened TO some further
arguments. AssemblYman Casterine ex-
planned his position in the fight. He said
that he had letters and kilograms from some
of the large landholders in the northern
portion Of San Diego County. stating that
as they could not get what they wanted
they were now in favor of the Riverside
proposition. This was the reason Caster
line gave for fayoring the scheme.
Assemblyman Lynch of San Bernardino
appeared before the committee. and told the
members that the county division fights
were sure to bring about corrupt methods
10 the Legislature. Representatives from
the sections that desired division were in
position to stand in and vote for every
thieving bin that comes up, simply because
such a course would be necessary to draw
votes 10 the division scheme. Then the
constituents will indorse any such Infamous
action on the part of their representatives
The committee then adjourned to meet
again tomorrow.

States Supreme Court had decided that such
an assessment was invalid. The railroad
company is just waiting until they can law
fully pay their taxes. If" said he. ''any
gentleman here will present a measure
which will call for just taxation, the COM
pany Is willing to pay every dollar"
John p. Dunn asked Mr.. Cross If the rail-
road company had paid its taxes in full
since 1880. The speaker told him to go and
look at the records and find out. Cross then
referred to the drainage tax of cents on
every 500. That tax had been levied In
1880. The reassessment bill. would. If
passed. compel the payment of that tax.
Shanahan interrupted the speaker to say
that the drainage tax had been declared I'M
constitutional.

THE NEVADA CONSTITUTION.
Proposal to Call a Convention to Re-
wise 1t.

CARSON. New. Jan. 24-The most i'm
poriant bill likely to come before the pres
ent session Of the Nevada Legislature has
been introduced by Assemblyman Norcross
of Washoe: 1t provides for the calling of
convention to meet in Carson City in April
for the purpose OF revising the constitution
of the State. The bill calls for the election
of fifty delegates to the convention at a
special election to be held February %, and
$4,000 IS appropriated for the purpose Of
deirayIng the expenses of the election and
convention.
There is grave question whether the
present session has power under the con-
stitutioD to call such convention. The
fourteenth session, In $780, passed an act
submitting to the people the question Of
calling constitutional convention at tho
general election held the following year.
The returns OF the election were improperly
made out and in addition the Supreme
Judges refused to canvass the vote, as the
law only requires them to canvass the vote
on State officers aud constitutional amend.
ments. The fifteenth session, In 1891, did
nothing In the premises It's now proposed
TO take up the matter.
The returns of the election of 1890 have
aii bSCu ttotioJSus III Is I'M
possible to ascertain whether a majority Of
the people at that election voted ia favor Of
such a convention or not. The Norcross
bill takes advantage of the wording of the
constitution, which reads: III 1t shall ap-
pear that majority of the people voted in
favor of the calling Of constitutional con-
venton." Mr.. Norcross recites. In a reso-
luton appended TO the bill. that it appears
that majority OF the people voted in favor
of calling constitutional convention.
There Is also another question involving
the constitutional power of the present
session to call such convention. The con-
stitution prescribes that the next session
following the election shah issue the cali.
The next session following was the fifteenth
session. 1t Is claimed by the promoter that
time s not the essence of the function. as
decided by the New York Court of Appeals
in the celebrated case Of The People VS..
Rice. In which precisely the same question
was decided, and that, therefore, the pres
ent session of tine Legislature, although not
the next Legislature following the election.
yet has the power to call constitutional
convention.
