washington, Feb. 6.-Records OF
Rlggs National bank Of Washington
showing some of the financial transac-
tions of Capt. Franz Won Papen. re-
called military attache of the German
embassy, have been obtained by the
department of justice and sent to New
York for the use of Federal Attorney
Marshall in Investigations by the fed
eral grand jury there of alleged plots
to violate American neutrality. A
subpoena was served on the bank Of
fcials more than a week ago. The
demand followed the removal of cer-
tain papers from Capt. Won Papen
when the ship on which he left the
United States reached England.
Officials of the department of JUS
tice refused tonight to discuss the
matter, but it was pointed out that
any information obtained would be of
no use as far as Capt. Won Papen
himself was concerned, though they
might prove valuable in connection
with the grand jury's investigation OF
alleged pro-German plots.

Washington, Feb. 7.-Senator Stone,
chairman of the senate foreign rela-
tions committee held a conference
with Secretary Lansing this morning.
Asked for an opinion on the Lusitania
case after. the conference. he said:
MY impression is that the Lusitania
case has been settled. He would make
no further remarks. Secretary Lam
sing took occasion today to deny the
report cabled from Berlin that the
United States had increased it's de-
mands in Lusitania case. The report
is utterly false" said Secretary Iafi-
sing. The president is scheduled to
confer on the case today.
