delivered by our forces, at first we're
not attended with the same immediate e

In these recent offensive operations
our losses and those of the French

COURT FAILS To FIND
CONSPIRACY EVIDENCE.
Justice Sees in Case rs Presented
Nothing Against McAdoo and
Williams.
ARGUMENTS ARE CONTINUED
Hogan Completes Lengthy Address
Against Government Plea to Dis
miss Temporary Injunction Against
Treasury Officials.

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-Argument
on the motion of7oounsel for Secretary
McAdoo. Comptroller of the Currency
Williams and United States Treasurer
Burke to dismiss the temporary injunc-
tion against the Treasury officials
secured by the Riggs National Bank,
continued to-day in the District Su-
preme Court
Frank j. Hogan concluded a lengthy
address against the motion on behalf
Of the bank, and Louis D. Brandeis
briefly outlined the governments con-
tention that the injunction should be
dismissed. Samuel Untermycr Will
conclude the argument for the motion
tomorrow. and will be followed by
former Senator Bailey. for the bank.
COURT SEES NO EVIDENCE
OF ALLEGED CONSPIRACY
While Mr.. Hogan was speaking. JUS
uce Mccoy, presiding, remarked that
he had seen in the case as presented
no evidence OF a conspiracy between
the secretary and the comptroller
against the bank.
The attorney replied that the record
showed that the two officials worked
together all down the line" but sug-
gested that the point was not material
to the present question at issue.
Mr.. Hogan argued AZ length in sup
port Of the claim that the case pre-
sented was one proper for the con-
s'deration of court of equity. and
asserted that an Injunction was the
proper means OF relief for the plain
tins. In reply, Mr.. Brandeis contended
that on at least two points the petition
for injunctivc relief had no standing
in court of equity. He declared the
court could not properly enjoin the
treasury officials from Withholding as
penalty provided by law interest due
the bank on bonds deposited for cir
culation security, and that the Secre-
tary of the Treasury could not be re-
strained in the use of his discretion
under the law in proposing to dis
approve applications Of banks TO have
