May Delay investigation.

While the prospects OF an investiga-
ton OF the conditions In the Treasury
Department By a committee Of Con-
gress have I'm no way diminished. il -
likely that even the effort will be de-
ferred until the Senate has disposed
Of the currency bill. Several Senators
have prepared drafts OF resolutions de
handing an investigation. but because
OF the treadmill methods Of the ma
jority. which compel Senators TO sit
from 10 a. NJ. to II y. m, none OF these
Senators has found time to give the
subject the consideration which each
believes il demands.
The bankers believe there should be
some amendment TO the currency bill
which would establish. beyond perad-
venture, the independence Of the office
Of the Controller OF the Currency, and
make unequivocally illegal the assump-
ton Of control over that official by any
Secretary or Assistant Secretary Of the
Treasury. All the Developments In the
Senate. however, indicate the futility
Of trying 10 amend the currency bsl
which is destined TO pass precisely as
il came from the Democratic caucus.
Some Senators believe, therefore, that
after the currency bill Is out OF the
way there will be time for a more thor
ough and painstaking investigation,
and that If, as is expected, this investi-
CATION shows the need Of additional leg
islation an amendment to the currency
act can be enacted independently and
on its own merits.
Unfortunately, an error In figures
crept into The Tribunes dispatch Of
this morning. II was stated that the
depreciation OF the capital of the
United States Trust Company, as esti-
mated by the Controller of the Cur
rency, amounted to 81 100000. The
figures should have read $1,147.O00, rs
had been previously correctly stated in
these dispatches.

pany and Washington representative
Of the New York firm Of Redmond q
Co., cherishes a keen and active sym
pathy for Assistant Secretary Williams
and that his influence is being eXerted
to save that official from further en-
barrassment.
Mr.. Munsey's statement has served
merely TO inflame the Indignation of
the stockholders Of the United States
Trust Company against their directors.
and in so far as it has had the effect
of bringing to light the action of ex-
Senator Scott in agreeing to return TO
the presidency Of that institution and
in pledging his private estate to raise
funds to tide it over it's difficulties,
doubtless will do so still more when
they learn that fact from The Tribune.
why were the directors or the
United States Trust Company unwilling
to pledge their personal property TO
procure for the stockholders the , per
cent offered by Munsey for its deposits
under his first and unaccepted propo-
sition?" Is question the stockholders
are asking to-day with marked vehe-
mence.
"Whv did not the directors avail
themselves of the acceptance OF eX-
Senator Scott and his half million
CASH." and What were the influences
which deferred them" are questions
these stockholders will ask with even
greater vehemence tomorrow, when
they learn the facts.
Trying to Distract Attention.
Persistent efforts are being made by
the defenders OF the administration TO
emphasize the personal side OF this
controversy and to distract attention
from the condition prevailing in the
Treasury Department by dwelling on
what are termed personal animosi-
ties" and on the injury TO the business
and financial interests Of the national
capital which. It Is alleged, will result
from continued agitation Of this sub
ject
The answer OF the bankers 10 these
propositions is that the conditions pre-
vailing in the Treasury Department
are "A menace to the entire banking
community OF the United States, and
that no ignoring Of recent developments
which have served TO bring a part Of
these conditions 10 public notice Will
serve to correct the fundamental evils
or avert that menace.
The prolonged vacancy OF the Office
Of Controller of the Currency, which
has lasted ever since April, is regarded
by bankers as Of itself a menace to The

in these dispatches. is not a subordi-
