DRRw's ERROR aLARING.

Nevertheless He Will be Allowed to
Resign Without an Investigation.
WASHINGTON, July THE administra
tion is still evidently bent on shielding the
men concerned in the Philadelphia bank
scandal. Bank Examiner Drew, whose
resignation has been requested because he
forgot to include in his reports an item
OF over $500 ,000 of the indebtedness Of the
Keystone Bank, is to escape prosecu-
ton, although careful inspection
of his report shows that it
was next to an impossibility for him to
have forgotten the missing item when he
inspected the bank and made up his report
Of its condition. He knew that the account
could not balance because OF his $500, 900
item of liability, yet when he struck an e1-
act balance that fact did not recall to
his mind the missing item, An
other incident makes 1t still more
difficult to understand how Examiner Drew
can escape investigation. In one Of his
earlier reports on the Keystone Bank he
gave among the assets certain piece of
property at a moderate valuation. Later,
when the liabilities of the bank had fnS
creased, the valuation of the same piece of
property was considerably increased by Mr..
Drew in order to make less the assessment
which would have to be met by the stock
holders in order to rehabiitate the bank.

RETURN OF THE lTArA.
The Libel Against the Robert and
Minnie Dismissed.

The Libel Against the Robert and
Minnie Dismissed.
Los ANGELES, CAL, July 7.-Judge
Ross of the United States circuit court
yesterday dismissed the libel on the
schooner Robert and Minnie, which was
seized in connection with the Itata episode.
The schooner loaded at San Francisco with
ammunition for the Chilean insurgents.
which were transferred at San Clemente
to the steamer 1tata and taken to IQuique.
Judge Ross in bis decision says that
while the fact alleged may be good
reason for oonhscating the Itata.
there is nothing to show that the schooner
was fitted out for the purposes of war, and
hence theslibel is dismissed. Commander
Miguel Temad OF the Itlta, to-day officially
notified the federal authorities that through
the agency Of Admiral McCann, Of the
United States navy, he had returned to be
tried for leaving the port Of San Diego,
March 6, without the necessary permission.
DISAPPOINTMENT AT WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, July THE decision Of
Judge Ross court yesterday, dismssing the
libel against the schooner Robert and Min
ME. which vessel supplied arms TO the Itata,
was great surprise to the officials In
Washington. 1t was generally believed
that the case against her was much stronger
than that which could be made out against
the Itata. aud Notwithstanding the reser-
vation made by Judge Ross in his
decision, it is felt that his action
will cause the failure Of the original
libel lodged against the Chilean vessel
although she may still be held on some
technical charge connected Vfith her ESCAPE
Ywhile under legal detention. This outcome
would be severe disappointment to the
state and navy department officials otter
an expenditure, direct and indirect, in the
chase of the Itata, that is estimated to run
up closely in the neighborhood Of $1,000
THE ITATA ORDERED LIBELED.
A telegram was received at the depart
ment of Justice to-day from United states
Marshal Gard at San Diego, Cal. asking
instructions as to bis course in
regard to the seized Chilean
steamer Itata. The acting Attorney
General telegraphed United States Attorney
Cole, at San Diego, to libel the vessel at
at once and turn her over to the United
States marshal by due process of law. By
special arrangement with the navy depart
ment the vessel was transferred to the Gus
tody Of the civil authorities to- day,
