Near the final hour bonds of Allie

souri, Pacific showed gains running

diamond shares accented a steady
securities market today.
Buying of diamond issues followed
announcement of a preferred stock

trade was listless, but the general
tendency was upward.
Small gains dotted the British
government bond list at the close

improved.
Brewery stocks took the play in

Domestic rails and shipping shares

Accountants Offer
Return Of Fees 10
McKesson Trustee
Court Will Be Asked
To Approve Price,
Wuterhouse Plan
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-The trus-
tee of the McKesson & Robbins
Drug Co. announced today that he
would seek Federal court author
ity to accept an offer of Price. Wa
terhouSe & Co., former account
ants for the corporation. to return
$522, ,402 in fees and expenses re-
ceived during six years that McKes-
son was headed by the late F. Dom
aid Coster- -Musica.
The offer, Trustee William J.
Wardall said. was conditional upon
his agreement not to assert claims
against the accountants for liabil-
ity because of the failure OF their
examinations to disclose the fraudu-
lent practices of McKesson's presi-
dent.
oster-Musica killed himself in
December, 1888. after disclosures that
he had perpetrated huge fraud in
McKessons crude drug department
and that he was an ex-convict
parading under an assumed name.
The fees which Price, Waterhouse
offered to refund covered the years
1888 to 1888, inclusive.
In letter to Wardall, the &C
countants said they made the offer
although ut is our position that in
the conduct of the limited character
of examination for which we were
employed we were not guilty
of any negligent act or omission or
otherwise at fault, but that we were
victims of the same fraud of which
the McKesson & Robbins companies
were victims.
Furthermore, we believe that this
position would be sustained in any
litigation by which you might seek
to impose liability upon us in con-
nection with the losses in question" !"
In notifying intervening COM
mittees representing stockholders
and creditors of his intention,
Wardall gave them copies of a
petition submitted to the court and
a show cause order by Judge Alfred
c. Coke setting November 20 as the
date for a hearing.
In the petition, Wardall said the
success of any litigation against
Price, Waterhouse g. Co. would be
uncertain and would involve con-
siderable expense. He added that
the offer of the accounting firm
represented "a fair disposition" of
his claim against the accountants
and expressed belief it was to the
best. interest of McKesson and Rob-
bins that the offer be accepted.
