cation of Admiral Dewey's statement
that the navy was never In q better or

Triple Alliance Denounced.
On receipt of this report Signor Son

BILE, denounced the alliance with Aus
tria Hungary He said that last sum-
mer Austria Hungary. without reach-
ing any agreement with Italy and with
out giving Italy any notice whatever
even disdaining the advice of Italy
that moderation be observed-had sent
to Serbia, July %. an ultimatum which
was the cause of the present GONNA :
grafton. Thus Austria Hungary had
disturbed the status quo in the Bal
kans creating situation which was
of advantage to herself alone.
such course of violence made
benevolent neutrality impossible, for
the reason that Austria Hungary was
firhting to attain an object diametri-
caIIy opposed to the vital interests OF
Italy. her ally. Nevertheless. for
period Of several months. Italy en-
deayored to bring about a situation
favorable to the re-establishment OF
friendly relations between the two
countries, but these negotiations
brought no practical results. Conse-
ouently, the alliance was denounced by
the Duke of Avarna May I. The duke
on this occasion said Italy was conf
dent of her rights, and he affirmed TO
the Austro- Hungarian government
that from this moment Italy resumes
entire liberty of action. declaring that
her treaty with Austria Hungary is

sion" of that young woman from the
Treasury for political purposes. can
not believe that any man qualified by
character and intellect to hold that Of
fee could be so small as to seek a po-
litical advantage in such way; and I
am compelled to believe that they ex-
aggerated the Importance of that Incl
| dent. due entirely to a prejudice against
the. National City Bank. or. if not
against the National City Bank. then
against Mr.. Allies. the vice president
of the Riggs National Bank; for. al
though Lotta Taylor was not employed
by the Riggs National Bank, receiving
no salary from them, taking no COM
mand from them, the Secretary of the
treasury. in this remarkable state
ment, went out of his way to declare
that she was there through Milton E.
.AiIes, vice president Of the Riggs Ma
tfonal Bank.
Evidence Of Prejudice.
If your honor please, a further evil
dence to mo of this prejudice Is the
stress which the answers lay, and
which my friend Mr.. Untermyer en-
forces, upon the deposit of the $780,
600 In the Riggs Bank, they say April
II, 1898.
mt Untermyer says that that was
obtained as a favor. Maybe 1t was.
He says that the code of morals which
be done. He expresses his gratiflca-
tion that that code of morals is fast
passing and, happily, passing away. He
says the bankers are better men than
| they used to be.
That may be true morally. but 1t is
just as hard to borrow money from them
| as 1t ever was. according to my infor-
nation. But the bankers are not the
! only people that have improved. Let US
believe that the lawyers and the doctors
on ttA ~nI. e.
| everybody else have shared this general
| upltft Of which hear so much and of
| which I see so little. I think people
were better than they were said to be
in that other day. rather than that there
has been so much Improvement in them
this day.
| Quotes Mr.. Untermyer.
What did Mr. Untermyer say about
was all right for them to get all that
money IL they could. according to that
code; and then he says: II it was
NECESSARY, why, perhaps they should
loan money to those public omciais

Taking up the charges Of Mr.. Unteg-
myer that the bank had "prospered ~
defying practically every section of tho
banking law Mr.. Bailey said:
Il challenge these gentlemen to prove
that a single section of the bank act ha s
been violated except the inconsequential
deficiency of reserves admitted"
He said that prior to nine years ago.

Denies Excessive Loans.
The charge that officers, directors or
employees of the hank held excessive
loans was fatty contradicted by Mr..
Bailey. He pointed out that the high

men, shown by the Treasury officials.
was held in thirty loans. aggreeatin~

he said. were authorized under the

Throughout Mr. Baileys argumei :
he was interrupted by Mr.. Untermyer I,
who disputed his Interpretation OF ths
facts, and at times by Justice McCo,, /,
who sought information.
Senator Bailey had not concluded his

met this afternoon.

ter continued his argument, after
Frank ]. Hogan associate counsel fo'
the bank. had informed the court that
he. Hogan, had drawn the affidavit thai
was the cause of the trouble, and that
he stood squarely on the allegations
contained in it. Mr.. Bailey had pro-
ceeded but n few seconds when Mr..
Untermyer interjected the statement
that the transcript of the Lewis John
son books showed more than 5000
transactions between the Riggs Bank
and the Johnson concern, and that
these transactions extended over a
period of more than seven years.
He stated that a qualified expert ac-
countant declared on oath that he had
examined checks, etc. in connection
actions. and that such checks were
drawn in favor of H. H. Flather.
Courts Right a Question.
Mr.. Bailey in his speech stated that
the first question involved was whether
the court had the right to hear and de-
termine the questions involved in the
case.
If the $4,000 in fines assessed against
the bank was assessed legally, then
the money is the property of the
United States and we have no right to
sue for its payment in this court" he
said. IF. however. the fines were not
