STOW DENIES THE STORY
Says Oaaaaa Independent Telephone
leearltlee Did 'ot Break
I or Hand Bank.
The atatement that heavy Investmenta In
Omaha and Tacoma Independent telephone
Interests caused the fsllure of the Oregon
Trust and Savings bank of Portland la de
nied by F. H. Blow, president of the Omaha
Independent Telephoi-e company. Borne
two or three columns are taken up In a
recent Issue of the Portland Oregonlan
with the details of this bsnk'g failure and
In that this atatement la made?
The fsllure of the bank wss due to
heavy Investments In bonds of the Omsha
and Tacoma Independent Telephone com
panies. These bonne, according to the
statement of President Moore, were bought
In lsrge quantities by the bank, which had
entered Into an elaborate underwriting
scheme. The hank bought these bonds st
Si, their par value being lfrt; In other words,
for a !.C' bond the bank paid psO. Each
bond of the denomination of U.OuO carried
with It a bonua to the bank of ll'AO In
stock. The hank then attempted to dispose
of toe bonds at par through Its agents,
giving to the purchaser of a $1.0 bond
InOO worth of stock as a bonus. This left
the bank with M worth of stock on esch
sale of a 11.000 bond, ore-half of which was
given to tha agent aa his commission.
Bonds of the Omsha Independent Home
Telephone company, the Puget Sound tTs
coma) . Home Telephone . company and
Home Telephone Company No. 2. which
was a second Issue of 4ie Puget Bound
company, were the securities trsded In by
the bsnk to Its ruin. The Omaha com
pany Is now constructing Its svstem. and
the Puget Bound company, which la lo
cated at Tacoma. has Just completed Its
svstem. but Is not yet In ooerstlon. All
these bonds r' Per cent, and President
Moore says the rarer is good, and while It
waa purchased by the bank at 05, It will
be worth more than that figure In three
months.
"An eleven-story hullfllng, a big Irriga
tion scheme and a street railway deal are
the thref things that broke the Oregon
Trust and Savings bsnk of Portland," said
Mr. Stow. "The fact that it had about
half a million of the bonds of the Omaha
and Tacoma Telephone companies was
rather In its favor than against It. One of
the local bankers who holds a great deal
of our atock ssld to me that this ought to
pull the concern through. I received a tele
gram Wednesday stating that a reorganiza
tion plan had been drawn up which would
In all probability he adopted.
"The bank was only three years old and
had plunged rather heavily In several di
rections. Still they woujd have come out
all right had It not been for the sudden
tightening of the money market in the
east."
Announcements of the Theaters.
The management of the Barnum & Bailey
circus has, It is said, given especial atten
tion to the comedy clement In the big show
this season. Spader Johnson, one of the
top-line funmakcrs. Is an Internationally
known comedian. Although an American,
he has twice made tours of Europe extend-
Ing over a period of ccveral years. John
I son Is an originator, and was the creator
I of the clown band, which was so generally
Imitated several years ago. He Is credited
with Introducing many amusing bits of
comedy Into the performsnce this season.
"Slivers." whose curious makeup has be
come familiar to magazine readera In recent
years, is also a. Barnum A Bailey clown
whose power for creating amusement is
said to be unbounded.
These clever men head a company Of
nearly forty clowna who will be with the
big show when It exhibits 'n Omaha next
Monday, September 9.
If a census of "show girls" now appearing
In musical comedies 'and extravaganzas
were taken It would probably disclose the
fact that there are nearly, 1.00 of these
comely end sprightly damsels earning their
living by appearing In these productions.
"The Wizard of Oz." which comes to the
Krug theater for all next week, employs
fifty clever girls and some ot the other
musical attractions employ the same un
usual number.

DATES OF THE HORSE SHOW
October 14 to 19 Will Be Dobbins'
Tima to Shine.
UNANIMOUS SENTIMENT FOR IT
Merchants anal Dlreetnra Are Deter
mined tat Make Kearth Aasssl
Exhibition tha Best
f All.
October 14 to 19 has been decided upon
bs the date for the Omaha horse show.
Msnager Wilktns, who was manager last
year, has been re-engaged and will be In
Omaha September 10, to begin the work
and other arrangemenla are nearlng com
pletion for Omaha's fourth annual horse
show. The directors have eoundeJ the
merchants on the proposition of holding
a show this year and all have been unan
imous in advising that the ahow be held
In spite of he fact that Omah will be tht
only city In the west with push enough
to give a horse show in the face of the
giant forward strides the automobile Is
making.
In spite of the fact the association In
Chicago. St. Louis and Kansas City have
cancelled - their show for this fall the
Omsha directors have decided to go ahead
and make the fourth larger and grandu.
than any of its predecessors.
"This will be a feather In the cap of
Omaha," said E. P. Peck. The fact will
be heralded broadcast all over the lanj
that Dobbin Is still able to hold his own
In Omaha at least and that in spite of the
great prosperity which is sweeping over
the land and keeping the thoughta of
men engaged on business affairs, men of
Omsha are still able to devote their time
and energy to paying their respecta to the
horse and at the aame time show that
Omaha does not propose to take a back
seat Just because the associations of
other western cities lay down on their
shows.
Wide Publicity Given to It.
"Numerous notices are already being
sent west which have been published In
all eastern papers announcing the fa-t
that Omaha Is to have its horse show
this fall.
"We will have a show even if every other
show In the country closes Its doors. I
have talked with a number of merchants
) In Omaha and all declare the benefits of
the horse show are Inestimable to them
and we can see no reason for laying down
Just because the rest do. Some of the
towns had shows last year which lost
money, but the Omaha show has alwaya
been a winner and we have every reason
to believe it will be better this year than
ever. People of Omaha take to the horse
show idea and like it and we propose to
give the people and the merchants what it
is evident to us they want."
Prise List Soon Ont.
Tha prize list will be out Saturday or
Monday and while It Is yet too early to
announce a list of the foreign entries the
management has the assurance of the
large owners of the east and Canada that
they will be on hand this year. There are
, more good horses In Omaha this year than
ever In spite of the incresse In the number
of automobiles, and more women are en
Joying horseback rides than ever, which
will add Interest to the show by giving
more entries from the women of Omaha.
The Judges will be Orson Moulton of
Batavla, N. T.. who Is well known In
Omaha from his two years' service here.
He will be the senior Judge and associated
with him will be Frederick Haskell, vice
president of the Illinois Trust and Savings
company of Chicago, and John M. Kuyken
dall of Denver, the well known whip, who
has been a Judge at previous horso shows
In Omaha. Dean I .owe of Wichita will
preside exclusively over the saddle horses,
the Jumpers and hunters.
The show will be held as usual In the
Auditorium, which will be gaily decorated
for the occasion. With all the merchants
i
j voting it Is a good thing for Omaha, and
I all the people pulling for its success, there
I should be no doubt in the minds of the
I directors as to its assured success
KOROGES IS A WISER MAN
1u Touched for Ills Roll anil I.earna
Some of the Ways ot
the Wicked.
James Korogts. a young Italian, Is $12
wiser than he was shortly after noon
Wednesday. He has also received an initia
tion Into the dear old confidence game that
has stranded so many wayfarers who
thought that lota of easy money waa lying
about loose only to be picked up on the
streets. The descendant of the Caesars was
slowly perambulating across tha Tenth
street viaduct and waa overtaken by a
suave young man, who engaged him In con
versation, and Just ahead of them was a
prosperous-looking individual, who oppor
tunely dropped a big roll of money. Tha
Italian's chance acquaintance picked up tha
roll and suggested that they would go
somewhere and divide the roll and keep
mum about It. The plan was eagerly en
tered into by the Italian, and just about
the time they were to put the plan In
execution the man who dropped the roll
turned back, nnd, aeeing the alleged roll
In the hands of the Italian's friend, de
manded that it bo restored to him. The
friend, however, discreetly skinned a fjo
bill off the roll and handed the balance to
the man who claimed to have lost it, who
was very profuse In his thanks for the re
turn of the money. After he. had gone
away the friend proposed to divide the 150
bill with the Italian. The Italian did not
hsva tX. but did have 112, and turned it
over to hla friend, who gave htm the bill
and said he would wait for him until he
got it changed and then he could pay him
the other IIS. The Italian discovered some
thing when he went to change the bill and
that waa that It was an old Georgia State
bank bill of the vintage of lkCS. He came
out to find hla friend, but he had gone.
Then the Italian told hla story to the po
lice. He finally picked upon a couple of
tourist fsrmers as the parties who worked
the game on him. but they aoon convinced
the police authorities that they were not
the men and were releaaed from custody.
Captain Savage of the detective force has
the bill, with the hope of catching onto
the confidence men through it, but he re
gards the chancea aa very altm.
In the meanwhile the Italian la congrat
ulating himself that he did not give his
new-found friend his clothe for the bal
ance of the worthless bill.

on Requisition Papers and W ill

Marion Hedgepath. "king of thlevea."
nas taken to Council Bluffs Thursday aft
ernoon by Chief of Police Richmond of that
city, who had requisition papers. The Coun
cil Fluffs authorities did want to hold him
for the robbery of the Stove Storage com
pany's safe there Isst Sunday night, but
the state prison officials from Jefferson
City, Mo., where he was formerly confined,
have declared that If the Iowa offlclala will
turn him over he will be held to aerve out
the eleven years left of his sentence there.
Chler Richmond thinks this will be dona
It was supposed here his rardon hal
been absolute, but Governor Folk has Is
sued a statement saying It was only con
ditional on his good behavior and he has
forfeited his right of parole by getting
Into trouble again.
Herman Beal of Omaha who was fore
man of the Ames avenue car barn In 1891.
when It was held up by Hedgepath and
his gang, went to see him at the Jail
Wednesday evening.
The ta-o men met as friends and laughed
and Joked about the first time they ever
saw each other. Hedgepath was alwaya
the man who held the gun in hla work
and Mr. Beal was one of the elgtit lined
up with their faces to the wall while the
other men blew the s.ife.
"You haven't any hard feelings against
me for that now have you?" the crim
inal asked.
Mr. Beal answered that he had not.
"You'd give me a Job If I ever came to
you again, wouldn't you?" asked Hedge
pet'h. but about that the car barn foreman
was not sc. certain.
Much t banned In Looks.
Hedgepeth naturally Is much changed in
appearance in the last fifteen years. Ha
Is aged and has added a mustache, which
makea it atlll more remarkable that Chief
of Detectives Savage -should have recog
nised him from an old smooth shaven
rogue'a gallery picture.
"In his former daya he was the most
feared crook of his kind In the west," ssld
one of the officers. "His comrades, other
members of the Sly-Wilson gang and oth
ers who worked with him, admired hla
steel nerve and seeming lack of fear. They
never trusted him, however, or liked him
personally. He was leader because he waa
fearless and skillful, but he had not even
the honor of a thief. He was supposed to
be as willing to murder a comrade for
gain as any other victim. He was as dls
trustrul of others as his own shiftiness
would load him and it was probably for
that reason he always held the guns him
self." It was through typical stool pigeon work
that Hedgepeth gained his parole from the
Jefferson City prison, where he hsd been
sent on a twenty-five-year sentence for a
train robbery. A mutiny occurred and he
betrayed to the officers the confidences of
his companions and he also gave up
enough evidence to capture and convict
Holmes, the "wife murderer" of Philadel
phia, who had married and killed a num
ber of young women. These acts curried
favor with the officials of the prison, but
