DlcTMENT EXPERT" BUSY.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-The federal
grand jury will formally present it's
findings tomorrow and the public will
then learn in what light the govern
ment intends TO view the case OF
Charles W. Morse.
Oliver G. Pagan, the indictment ex-
pert sent here from the Office OF the
encouragement at Washington is
working today In an upper room OF
the federal building. He has the repu-
tation of never having drawn up an
indictment that was later quashed on
account OF technical errors.
Receiver Hanna has not yet com
pleted his examination OF the books
and records OF the defunct National
Bank of North America, but he has
proceeded far enough TO give informa
ton to Mr.. Pagan. which places other
names than that OF Morse before the
grand jury.
Searching for Collateral.
The men In charge of the banks
affairs are making every effort TO To-
cate Mr.. Morse's collateral. now in
Manhattan banking institutions. The
banks are helping in this matter, COM
munfcattng with the present National
Bank of North America management,
telling of collateral that Mr.. Morse
had given as security for loans aad in
which he might, under certain circum-
stances haye an equity.
IL the federal grand jury returns
one or more indictments against
Morse-and 1t is regarded as certain
that this will be done-it is possible
they will have 10 do with transactions
with several banks beside the National
Bank of North America.

Marshal Henkel said he would go
down the bay on the government cut
ter next Sunday and board the Etruria,
OF which Morse Is returning to this
country. 1t is not likely there. viii
be any clash between the county and
federal authorities. Marshal Henkel
taking the course OF carrying his war
rants down the bay merely as a mat
ter of routine business.
The county authorities have discuss
ed the advisability OF chartering
tug and sending man down the bay
with warrants, the same as marshal
Henkel. 1t is rumored that an excit-
ing race will result. The tug. how
ever, could not have a chance with
the revenue cutter.
