MOORE is ADJUDGED NOT
GUILTY AFTER 80 HOURS
Twelve Men Return Most Remarkable
Verdict in History of Oregon

PORTLAND. Ore April 1.-The
jury in the case of Walter III. Moore,
indicted president of the defunct Ore
gOn Trust & Savings bank, late this
afternoon returned a verdict of not
guilty. The jury was out over so
hours.
The jurys report was the most re-
markable ever returned by jury i'm
Oregon, and has few equals in Ameri-
can Jurisprudence. according to the
lawyers engaged i'm the case and
others who have followed the trial
from its inception. 1t recommended
that Moore be the recipient of the
most severe censure of the court for
his guilty knowledge and participa-
ton in the unlawful and dishonest
acts relative to the conduct of the
bank of which he was president and
director"
When the verdict was handed to-
Judge Bronaugh he plainly showed hi,
amazement and pondered deeply for
several moments. Finally he called
the attorneys for the state and the
defense into consultation and after
some discussion it was decided to let
the verdict stand.
Moore was indicted and tried Tor
accepting a deposit after he knew of
the insolvent condition of the bank.
The jury took % ballots and until the
last one stood nine to three for ac-
quittal.
The district attorneys office amour
ced tonight thai it would ask that an
other indictment against Moore making
similar charge, be set for trial in
tie immediate future.
The Oregon Trust and Savings Bank
failed in August, 1907. with $2,500,00O
liabilities and $2,300,000 assets. The
receiver of the bank compromised many
of the claims of the depositors who
accepted securities of the bank in lieu
of their deposits. Receiver T. c. Dew
lin when asked TO make an estimate
of the net loss to the depositors, de
olined, saying that the exact figures
would never be known as many of the
securities taken by the depOsitors were
OF uncertain value when the settlement
was made and since then their values
have fiuctuated, generally downward.

DECEPTION CHARGED
TO THE PROSECUTION

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The most
serious clash that has yet occurred
among the members of the Ballinger-
Pinchot investigating committee
marked the sitting today. The quar-
rel, which continued for an hour or
more, was added evidence of the
growing feeling of partisanship among
the democratic and republican mem
bers of the committee and was taken
to mean the hopelessness of an unani-
nous agreement.
The row was precipitated when
Chairman Nelson accused Attorney
Brandeis, representing the "prosecu-
ton" of attempting to deceive the
committee or to conceal something.
The attorney flushed with anger,
jumped to mis- feet and demanded that
the chairman's remark be withdrawn.
Democratic members of the COM
mittee were quick to take up the de-
Tense of the attorney. and Representa-
tive Graham of Illinois moved the
chairman be directed to withdraw the
imputation. Representative James
seconded the motion. There followed
a general discussion in which every
member of the committee present
took part and revealed his personal
views.
A number of republicans said they
did not agree with Senator Nelson
that Mr.. Brandeis was attempting
concealment of any sort, but at the
same time they would not vote to
compel the chairman to withdraw his
remark.
1t was argued by Representative
Madison, the insurgent member, that
the chairman, in making his remarks.
reflected only his personal views and
in no wise committed any other men,
| Der. Representative James argued
that the matter Mr.. Brandeis was &C
cused of concea1ing was on record be-
fore the committee and consequently
there could be no deception if the
committee members paid attention
The matter finally was disposed of
by a motion from Representative Ohm
stead to lay on the table. This was
carried by a vote of six to three Two
witnesses testified today on behalf of
Mr. Ballinger. They were District At
torney Elmer o. Todd of Seattle, and
! United States Marshal H. K. Love of
Alaska. Mr.. Love was formerly a
special agent of the land office. Both
of the witnesses declared statements
bv Special Agent H. T. Jones for the
prosecution" were false.
The direct examinations occupied
but few minutes. the cross examin-
atoms by Mr.. Brandeis taking up the
rest of the session. Mr.. Todd and
Mr.. Love We're prepared for the on
slaught of the CLAWS attorney and
their answers were sometimes as
sharp as the thrusts Of the lawyers
There had been testimony before the
committee from time to time indicat-
ing that Mr.. Love, as special agent,
was warped" in his judgment by the
fact that he was a candidate for the
marshalship in the third division of

to present to a special grand jury here
next Monday evidence that the Imperial
Window Glass company is trust in
violation of the Sherman act
The corporation, formed under the
laws Of West Virginia, is said to con-

eleven different states.
The company has factories and OFF,

New York, Ohio. Pennsylvania and
West Virginia. Many prominent glass
manufacturers from these states are
said to have been served with sub

jury as witnesses.
United States District Attorney Jor-
dan said tonight:
The investigation of the Imperial
Window Glass company has been under

position. Human nature has been the
same since the time Adam and Eve
were driven from Paradise and in
course of time somebody might use
this information for a political pur
pose"
Mr.. Payne said publicity could not be
accorded in response TO mere curiosity
and he believed that the Gillett amend
ment would accomplish all desirable
publicity.
Mr.. Hitchcock of Nebraska suggested
the head of the department in which
the Information on corporations had
been gathered, had become the head of
the republican campaign committee TWO
years ago. and the great trust bus
ter of ohio. Wade H. Ellis, had been
taken from the prosecution of corpor
ations and placed in charge of the
campaign in Ohio. Those examples of
activity in politics of men VINO pos
sessed information regarding corpora
tions, he said, should be remembered
when considering pending legislation
Shirley Objects to Publicity.
Mr.. Shirley of Kentucky, parting
company with his party associates,
declared the publicity feature of the
corporation tax law could not be de-
Tended.
Mr.. Harrison of New YORK reminded
the house that while the present OC-
cupant of the White House was
benign president the time might
some when he would be a "malign pres
ident," and then the danger of trusting
to him alone to make public these cor
poration matters would be seen.
The previous question was ordered
by vote of 143 to 20, the insurgents"
voting with the regular republicans.
BY a vote Of 1872 to 1913 Mr. Gillett's
substitute was adopted.
Mr.. Fitzgerald introduced sensation
into the consideration of the corpora
ton publicity amendment by moving
to recommit the legislative, executive
and judicial bill to the committee on
appropriations, with instructions for
that committee to report it with an
amendment repeating the Payne-A AL
drich tariff law.
A long search Of precedentS was re-
iquired to determine whether the reso-
luton was in order. After an extern
ded explanation of the parliamentary
situation the speaker ruled the mo-
ton to recommit was not in order.
Mr. Fitzgerald appealed from the de-
ciEion of the chair but the house by
a vote of $50 to 116 voted to sustain
the speaker. The insurgents voted with
the regulars.
The publicity amendment then was
sent back to the conferees for further
cons 'deration.

D WASHINGTON. April THAT the
tax law Will be amended
to restrict the operations of its pub
licity feature was virtually assured to-
day when the house snghtly amended
a provision previously adopted by the
senate for that purpose.
AS passed by the house today, the
law provides "all corporation tax re-
turns shall be open TO inspection only
upon the order of the president, under
rules and regulations to be prescribed
by the secretary of the treasury ana
d approved by the president.
AS previously provided by the senate,
such corporation tax reports were ito
be made public when called for by res
oIution of the senate or the house of
representative or under the order of
president when he desires it for public
interests"
The senate and house conferees soon
will meet in an effort to agree upon
the publicity amendment in which the
views of both branches will be harmon
lied.
Vote Strictly Partisan.
Just before the subject was disposed
of, Mr.. Fitzgerald of New York, at
tempted to get a direct vote upon a
motion to recommit the bill under con-
s;derat ton, with instructions for the
committee on appropriations to re-
port it with an amendment repeating
the Payne-Aldrich tariff law. BY a
strict party vote of $50 to 116, in which
the insurgents lined up with the regu-
lar republicans, a point of order against
Mr. Fitzgerald's motion was sustained.
The amendment adopted by the house
today was introduced by Mr.. Gillett
of Massachusetts. Under the terms
of his amendment, Mr. Gillett said he
thought the president would rule that
records of corporations of use and val
lie to the public should be made pub
lie. as they should not be open to the
inspection of rival firms
Mr.. Fitzgerald, combating the Gill
lett amendment, said he was in favor
of the fullest publicity of all corpora
ton affairs and he offered an amend
ment providing simply that reports
required by the corporation tax law
shall be open to public inspection"
and appropriating $4,000 or more to
classify such reports, etc.
Clark is IronicaI.
This amendment said Mr. Clark of
Missouri, referring to the Gillett pro-
visions, should be entitled An amend
ment to get the republican party out
of hole Under this provision, no
one will have access to these reports
of corporations except the president and
his advisers, which is a dangerous pro-
