PARIS. July l5.-The French courts is
sued an order to-day forbIdding Munroe
& Co. American bankers OF Paris and
New York. to reveal the account or
checks which had been demanded by
United States customs authorities in the
case OF Miss Mary A. Dolan. a dress
maker Of Brookline. Mass. who is charged
with having undervalued importatlons OF
dresses.
The court ruled that II the bank is not
bound to professional secrecy. strictly and
legally speaking. It Is so bound by the ma
ture of its relations with It's clients. and
that only public interest could release 1t
from secrecy.
Such release would be unjustiiled in
the present case. the court holds. as the
object of the demand to reveal the books
and papers was to facilitate the investiga-
lions OF "A foreign fiscal administration,
which are in opposition TO general pri-
vate French interests and are likely TO
injure the national commerce by involv-
ing transactions with strangers In in
security and dangers.
Miss Dolan. for whom this experience
with the customs authorities is not the
first, was accused last year OF making
fraudulent entries and al the trial Henry
Munroe was asked to produce her accounts
with checks paid to Arms with which she
did business In France. When he declined
to do so on a plea OF professional secrecy
he was fined for contempt Of court.
In December last Mr.. Munroe petitioned
the French courts to compel Miss Dolan
to let her account he produced. The
French courts deny this petition. The
case has aroused much comment on the
methods OF the United States authorities
