A few days ago the National Liquor

under the heading OF "A West Vir-

deficit in the treasury Of that
state because of the abolition OF

While improvement of farming con-

MISUSED FRANK
Riggs National Bank Attor-
neys Declare Printing Priv
ilege Was Misused.

Congressional Investigation Possible

test Formally.
MAILED RECORDS FREE

A formal complaint may be made by
the attorneys of the Riggs National Bank
in Washington that Treasury officers
have abused the franking and free
printing privilege by having printed at
the Government Printing Office as a pub
lie document and circulating through the
mails under government frank copies of
portions of the record IN the Riggs Bank
case.
The Postoffice Department would have
to deal with the alleged abuse of the
official frank and. while the department
over which Mr.. Burleson, of Texas, pre-
sides has been unsparing in its pursuit
of the Representative or Senator who tries
to send home his laundry or typewriters
o. other personal effects under the pre-
cious frank, the spectacle of Albert S.
Burleson, of Texas, passing the buck" to
the Presidents son-in-law and Secretary
of the Treasury on the frank matter
is one which Washington is awaiting
with breathless interest.
The bank may bring to the attention
of the comptroller of the Treasury the
fact that bills submitted by the Public
Printer for the expense of printing the
matter franked out by the Treasury Of
ficers as a part of their defense before
the country in the Riggs Bank case are
not legally chargeable against Treasury
funds and try in that way to hold up
the payment of the same. 1t will then
be up to tie comptroller to decide wheth-
er the bills may be paid from the Treas
ury funds.
Bailey May Protest.
Former Senator Bailey, counsel for the
RiGgs National Bank. ihtimated yester-
day in commenting on what he charged
was gross breach of the franking and
free printing privileges that he might
make a protest publicly against payment
of these bills. Congress. through the
Joint Committee on Printing, also may
look into the expenditure. There is GER
tain to be an echo of the incident 1t
was learned yesterday that the Treas
ury officers had sent to practically every
bank in the country under government
frank their side of the Riggs Bank case,
the one in which the bank sought an
Injunction against the Secretary of the
Trea sury, the Treasurer, and the comp
troIler of the currency.
The Treasury officers were not disposed
to saw anything about the matter in the
absence of Secretary McAdoo. Comptrol-
Ter Williams also is absent. The fact that
the frank had been used and the free
printing privilege invoked was admitted
by those in authority to speak in the
absence of Secretary McAdoo and Comp
troller Williams. 1t was urged in de-
fense of the action that the three Of
ficers attacked in the courts by the Riggs
National Bank were attacked in their Of
fetal capacity and for official acts and
that they had right to use government
agencies in making reply. 1t was point
ed out that the Riggs National Bank had
circularized the banks of the country in
their own defense and that it was up to
the government officers to state the
governments side of the case as 1t was
described at the Treasury Department"

HOPEFUL OF SETTLEMENT

Sink Neutral Vessels Carrying
Contraband.
HOPEFUL OF SETTLEMENT

The answer Of the United States to the
last note from Germany in the Frye case
was dispatched from the State Depart
ment to Ambassador Gerard. at Berlin.
last night. Officials here are hopeful that
It will be the means Of ef.ecting a settle
ment in the Frye case, even II it does
not have the result of bringing the two
governments to an understanding with
regard to some Of the principles Of law
and questions Of treaty Interpretation
that has grown out Of the incident.
Ambassador Gerard has been instructed
to arrange. upon delivery Of the Frye
note, for its simultaneous publication In
both countries. 1t Is expected publication
of the note will occur by the end Of this
week.
The two governments are at odds over
the question Of whether the treaty Of ISIS
between the United States and Prussia
gives German warships the right to sink
American vessels carrying contraband. on
condition that they compensate Amerf-
can citizens for any loss thus suffered.
Germany insists she has that right. as
the treaty does not specifically deny it to
her, while the United States is Of the
opinion that the spirit and purpose Of the
treaty is absolutely contrary to such a
claim on the part Of Germany.
Germany Admits Liability.
Consequently. though Germany has ad-
mitted liability In the case Of the Frye,
the American ship sunk by the PrinZ
Eitel Friedrich, offers to pay only on
condition that such payment Is not to
be regarded as constituting satisfaction
to the United States for violation of its
treaty rights. The United States takes
the position that 1t is willing to accept
payment in the Frye case, provided 1t
Is understood that such acceptance con-
stitutes no cession of principle on the
part Of this government. 1t Is not yet
known whether Germany will be willing
to make payment on this basis or not.
II 1t does. it will thus dispose Of the
Frye case. and leave the position Of
both governments on the principles in.
volved unchanged. The same contro-
versy is expected to come up in the case
Of the Leelanaw. the American vessel
torpedoed recently by German sub
marine, and consequently, the United
States is determined to make no move in
the Frye case which will impair its posi-
ton with regard to the Leelanaw or
