Portland, Ore; Oct. 29.-Following
Governor Chamberlain's proclamation
issued last night, declaring a five-day
legal holiday in this state until Nov. 3,
came a feeling of security on the part
of the bankers of this city. There was
no undue excitement on the part of the
people. The expediency of the govern
or's action was generally realized and
the feeling of optimism as to the safe
ty of the banks has not been dispelled
by the governors proclamation. Bank
ers assert positively that none of the
Portland banks are in danger.
The banks of this city have been
loaning millions to eastern financial in
situations who now refuse \ to return
loans in any other form than clearin g
house certificates.
Had the holiday period rot heen de-
clared the cash reserves of the banks
would probably have been depleted in
a few days, but in the meantime the
bankers will arrange some method for
meeting the situation.
One Bank Open.
Only one bank, the German Afaeri-
can, an unimportant concern, opened
it's doors for business today.
The feeling among local bankers to-
night is that the New York banks have
saved the day for themselves by bor-
rowing all the available money in the
country.
The suspension of the banking BUSH
ress in this city has had no apparent
effect on the commercial or Industrial
life of the city. Arrangements are be-
ing made by several of the leading
banks to take care of the payrolls Of
the manufacturing plants and of all
large employers of labor 1t is not be-
lieved by bankers or representative
business men that the temporary clos
ing of the banks will have any serious
consequences.

POWDER TRUST SUIT
PAPERS ARE FILED
Senator Du Pent Exercises Dom

PROMISES OF TRUST BROKER
Government Lost Faith in Preten-
sions ef Trust Officers That They
Would Comply With Law-Ques-
ton OF ReceiEership Raised.

Washington, D. apparently
losing faith in the pretensions of the
officers of the Powder Trust that the
combine would be dissolved and re-
organized to comply with the Sher-
man antitrust Law, Attorney General
Bonsparte recently issued orders by
which the prosecution against the
powder concern was brought at VIII
mington, Del. 1t IS generally be-
1ieved that there were negotiations
between the officers Of the trust and
the Government officials looking to-
ward h settlement OF the case out
Of court. The papers were filed by
ASSi-tant Attorney General PurIy in
the United States Court.
Already the Governments attor-
neys realize that the trust has made
a move which will make it necessary
to amend the petition fled in the Del
aware court. The trust officials have
brought this about by dissolviDg I.
Du Pont-de Nemours G Co.. which
IS the Delaware corporation of the
trust. In the first paragraph of the
petition of the Government it is al
legged that the Z. /. Du Pont-de Ne
mours Company is of the parent
companies which compose the trust.
But since b preparation of the pa
pers this company. has ceased to Y
list, and in order to avoid complira-
tionS which would throw the Govern
ments suit out or court the Attorney
General must amend his petition.
Relative to the connection of
United States Senator Henry A. Du
Pont with the so-called trust, the bill
filed says:
THAT the defendant, Henry A.
Du Point, was the President and a
member of the Board of Directors of
Z. J. Du Pont, de Nemours &c Co.
from the time of its organization un-
til the first day of January, 1906,
during which time he attended from
time to time the meetings of the
Boar Of Directors of said
held in the city of Wilmington, and
participated in the direction and man
agement of its business and was re-
sponsible therefor; that at toe time
of filing this petition the said Henry
A. Du 'Pont vas one of the principal
stockholders in said company, and
during all the times herein mentioned
has been and now is exercising q DOM
1nanC influence owe the management
and business OF said company
Mr.. Du Pont was elected United
States Senator in June, 1906.
The Court is asked to determine
whether public interests will be bet
ter subserved by the appointments of
receivers to take possession of the
property of the alleged trust with a
view to bringing about conditions in
trade and commerce that will be in
harmony with the law. The prayer
in this respect is identical with that
in the so-called tobacco trust petit
ton.

L HARMONY.

In the thin fabrics where several
coloFs are combined it is done SO
artistically that the skill of the art
ist is Immediately apparent. Dull
browns, blues, greens, pinks, and
white are all grouped together in
stripes, checks, and figures, but all is
done so quietly that enc has really
to make a close examination of the
fabric to separate the color scheme
into its elements and realize all the
1ues it has combined in it.
Plain mulls and batistes, with deep
borders in Oriental design about the
bottom Of the skirt, are ultraelegant.
Portions of the border are also used
in trimming the bodice in combina-
ton with lace CT effective braids. Such
skirts are usually shirred in full into
the waist line, with a suggestion OF
the second empire style.-New Haven

POLICE COWARD DISMISSED
Walsh, Stripped Of Shield. Booted
Out of Headquarters.
New York City Policeman In Disgrace
For Failing to Follow a Flee
ing Murderer.

New York City.-Stamped e cow
ard by General Bingham, who had
dismissed him from the force, Police
man Stephen S. Walsh, of theGEast
Fifty-irst street station. was stripped
OF his shield, escorted out Of Police
Headquarters by an inspector and
booted into Mulberry street, while po-
licemen and others jeered and hooted.
Never before had the department wit
messed such a spectacle. Back in
1876, thirty-one years ago, Rounds
man Thomas Burns and Patrolman
White, of the old Mulberry street sta
ton, were dismissed for cowardice,
but there was no such scene as tna1
enacted in the trial roo during
Walsh's ordeal. But General Elm
CHAM, a soldier, had his own idea as
to the proper punishment for a COW
ard.
When the COMMISSIONS announced
his decision he ordered Inspector Rich
ard Walsh to tear Walsh's shield from
his coat. When that had been done
the Commissioner called for the re-
mOval of Walsh's brass buttons, but
they were fastened to the blouse with
wire and could not be ripped OF.
Cut them off," roared the Com
missioner, -and strip him of every
thing that he has ~disgraced.f
Knives were brought forth, and al
though Inspector Walsh, Captain
Lantry and several policemen tried
to sever the wire that held tho but
tons to the coat they were u~nsuccess-
full. General Bingham became in
patient.
Take him out of the building, in
spector," he said. Tell him he is
dismissed from the department and
to never enter this building. Take
him away! Get him out of my sight"
The only person in the trial room
who was not moved was the 1isgraced
cop. Throughout the proceedings he
appeared calm and -unconcerned.
Once he smiled at Inspector Walsh,
who was trying nard to teartthe but
tons from the blouse, and he seemed
pleased at the discontinue of the in
spector.
His revolver, shield, police manual
and patrol and frebox keys taken
from him, Walsh stood erect for a
moment and glared at Commissioner
Then Inspector Walsh
dragged him from the room. Several
made a move to follow,
but General Bingham stopped them.
Walsh was dismissed for falling to
follow Frank H. Warner after he had
killed Esther Norling in West Forty
street.

O SIMPLICITY.

Lost people believe these principles
simplicity and harmony-in the
matter of home decorations and fur
nishing, but few are successful In
carrying them out. The majority OF
houses hare good interiors. Ii the

Quaint21 ce can be counted ON one
hand, is It not also true that the well
furnished houses can be enumerated
in like manner? These satisfactory
houses stand apart from all the 9th

or any better pictures, but they EN-.

mated. It is in the small things Of
the house that the greatest sins are
committed.
Taste does not run to rolling pins.
Ha sdpainted articles, in the old accept
anc1 Of the term, are no longer in
repute. There are no decorated
plaques, or gilded shovels, or creweI
embrotdegies in our homes today.
The snail things are often very
good, but there are too many Of them
and they serve no useful purpose.
Two brass c-andlesticks on a mantel
are better than seven; one or two
pieces OF pottery are more interesting
than a dozen; and a few pictures are
far better from a decorative stand
point than a number.
Nc house is beautiful IL the laws
of order are disregarded. But the
order that faints at the sight of a
speck of dust, the order that locates
every chair and table by a chalk
mark. the order that cannot tolerate
a misplaced book, is absurd.
The order that makes for restful-
mes and for comfort is vital. 1t can
exist in crowded rooms. Furni-
ture IS made to be used and books
are made to be read. If the disar-
ranging OF a chair or the misp1acing
of a book upsets the order of a room,
something is wrong and the some

rid Of the s~uperfuous. Most rooms
have too many pieces OF furniture
and all rooms have too many things.

use them, lamps that are located

are expressions of a love for a simple
arrangement. Beauty, no less than
comfort, is dependent upon this vital
principle.-New York Journal.

1.-THE chemists report does not
