Washington, April 26.-Counsel for
Secretary McAdoo and Comptroller
of the Currency williams have com
pleted preliminary plans for the de-
fense to be made when the RIGGS Ma
tlonal bank Injunction proceedings
are taken up in the District of CO.
lumbia supreme court May IL.
Although Mr.. Williams has not sub
mitted all the evidence in his posses
sion bearing on acts of the bank, the
legality of which he questions. it is
now regarded as almost certain that
no attempt will be made to institute
criminal proceedings, if at all. be-
fore the defense in the civil case has
been begun.
The government lawyers are ex-
pected to base their defense largely
on the ground that there has been
no conspiracy between Mr.. McAdoo
and Mr.. Williams to iniure the bank;
that anything that they have appear.
ed TO do in concert was lawfully done
and with entire propriety.
The governments answer, It was.
said today, would deal al length with
Mr.. McAdoo's action in holding M
$4,000 interest on government bonds
owned by the bank and on deposit asI
security against its note circulation
to pay a fine assessed against the
bank by Comptroller williams for
refusal to furnish information, and
with the banks charge that Mr.. Wfl-
liams proposes to refuse TO approve
the bank as reserve agent for other
national banks
In both these phases of the case
the government win maintain that
neither official exceeded his lawful
power.
Reports of compromise in the
case which have been spread around
for days are denied Wig
orousIy by both officials of the bank
and by those on the government side. !
