RIGGS BANK FINE
REVERSED BY COURT
L. S. Controller Also Restrained
from Imposing Further Penalties

Washington. MAY Sl.-The District
Supreme Court to-day held that Con-
troller Williams may not retain a
$4,000 fine he imposed upon the Riggs
National Bank. and may not impose
further penalties. as the bank alleged
he had threatened 20 do.
The decision diSposes of the unde-
cided in points in the banks civil suit
against Secretary McAdoo and Control
Ter Williams. in which II charged them
with conspiracy TO destroy il.
The bank alleged the Controller
threatened TO fine IL at the rate Of
500 q day while certain Of his orders
were uncompled with. The decision
is a victory for the bank in that re-
spect. All the banks charges Of per
sonal malice and persecution by the
Treasury officials were dismissed.
The Controller was held to have
power TO require bank 10 make spe-
cIal reports. disposing Of the banks
contention that Mr.. Williams had har-
assed it By calling for many such re-
ports. In dSposing Of the charge that
Mr.. McAdoo furthcred his alleged con
spiracy against the bank by having
the Secretary Of War withdraw from it
Panama Canal funds, the court SAYS
this was a matter purely IN the lat
ter's discretion.

WHITMAN ACTS
WITH TANNER
Chairman Hints at Subterfuge in
Meyers Questions on
Americanism.

Governor Whitman and Frederick
c. Tanner, as the two Hughes leaders
in the New York delegation, were puz-
zled yesterday by the announcement
from Chicago that Frank Hitchcock
professed TO speak for Justice Hughes
and was playing the leading hand in
the movement 10 nominate Hughes. Il
was understood that Mr.. Tanner dis
cussed the matter with Governor Whit
man at Albany over the long distance
telephone.
Word had been sent out by the
Eastern leaders in the Hughes camp
not 10 decide on any programme until
they reached Chicago Saturday. Mes
sages were exchanged with Chicago
yesterday which were said 20 practi-
cally repudiate Hitchcock in an effort
to put the brakes on his activities and
pretensions of authority. Hughes men
here see an attempt to smoke out"
Justice Hughes, and, believing his
greatest strength just now lies in his
continued silence. are anxious 10 head
off any such effort, which might annoy
their candidate.
Mr.. Tanner declared yesterday that
Hughes would be the nominee OF the
convention. He replied briefly 10 the
open questions put 10 him by George
Won L. Meyer, chairman of the Repub-
lican Roosevelt committee, as TO his
stand on the issue of Americanism and

"Thus Mr.. Wilson awoke in the nick

Mr.. Viereck argues further that the
Presidents peace proposals, conserv-
ing the rights OF small nations, are
correct if pursued to their logical con
illusions. Such conclusion, he adds,
means that Belgium and Ireland are
on an equal standing with Germany
and England. and that any settlement
that gives liberty to Belgium should
give a like measure Of liberty to Ire

Perkins Refuses to Say
Progressiyes Will Aid
Another Candidate.

Whether the leaders OF the Progress
sive party will support the nominee OF
the Republican convention If Colonel
Roosevelt is not nominated is still a
moot question. Just before George
". Perkins left yesterday he evsded a
direct answer TO the question.
"My first choice is Roosevelt said
Mr.. Perkins. "My second choice is
Roosevelt, and it is in that spirit 90
to Chicago"
If the Republicans do not nominate
Colonel Roosevelt, will you and the
Progressives support whoever is nom
mated" Mr.. Perkins was asked.
81 am for Roosevelt" he replied.
Mr.. Perkins departed for Chicago to
take charge of the Progressive head
quarters in the convention city. He eX-
messed himself as much pleased at the
Developments of the last few days, and
particularly by the receptions accorded
Colonel Roosevelt in Kansas City and
ST. Louis.
Cooking up" was the way he de-
scribed the Colonels chances.
Perkins was the last Of the more i'm
portant Roosevelt men 20 leave for Chi
cago. George Won l.. Meyer having left
New York on Sunday, and Guy Emer-
son. of the Partisan League, being
on the ground. Thomas c. Desmond
treasurer of the Non-Partlsan League,
probably will join Emerson within a
day or so.
In Roosevelt circles there was much
satisfaction expressed over the tangle
in which Frank S. Hitchcocks efforts
10 nominate Justice Hughes seemed TO
have involved him.
Hitchcock is now explaining they
declared. and the man who in the
midst of fight has 20 stop and begin
explaining is lost"
Friends of Justice Hughes were not
denying with any degree Of positlveness
that Hitchcock had not set back the
cause of their candidate. They were
much grieved by the announcement that
the German press had come out for
their man and against Roosevelt or
Root
The unbiased were inclined TO ap-
praise both incidents as another demon
stration of Roosevelt luck"

Sunny Italy Casts

The enchantment of sunny Italy
cast its spell over F. Marion Craw-

He spent years in this land Of sum
shine, of gorgeously painted seas
and skies, dreaming Of love ro-
mances that blossomed in ancient
castles, of sorrows and tragedies
buried within convent walls.
A wonderful inspiration came to
him. He conceived a story of a
great love, of heart-rending
separation, and his soul poured
forth all its depth OF feeling, all its
wealth of imagery in The White
Sister. " Then was born the great
est work of his master mind.
Viola Allen was captivated by
the great dramatic possibilities Of
this romance. She felt soul STIR

probation Of the part. How we'll
she succeeded in bringing out all

A man named Bunk Adams, re-
siding in Kentucky, near Duke
dom, shot and all but MORALLY
wounded a negro last Saturday
night. It is claimed the negro,
who had been in the employ Of
Adams, had taken a horse and
rode it without the knowledge or
consent of Adams, and when the
latter demonstrated with the negro
he advanced toward Adams with a
knife. The ball struck a brass
button on the negro's jumper, the
button burying itself in the flesh
of the stomach.
