Secretary of | State Kellogg, Dr. W. W. Cumber-} land, who has recently completed a! finaneial survey of Nicaragua in the} interest of the New York bankers} and Brigadier-General Frank R. Me-| Coy, chosen by President Coolidge to| “superintend” the pending elections| in Nicaragua, were at the conference. | The long projected loan by the | Ameriean financiers to the Nieara-| guan regime placed in power by the} American marine corps was the chief topic of discussion and it is intimated that announcement of the. loan. may be forthcoming in the near future. Tt} is generally estimated that the loan| will amount to at least $12,000,000. | Dr, Cumberland, reporting favor- | ably on the power of the Nicaraguan | authorities to raise the loan by taxes on the: peons, increased by customs duties, urged the practicability of lending the money. He pointed out that while $6.089,000 would be used for the consolidation of debts ineurred by the Jeaders of the goyernment, approximately $6,000,000 would still power thruout the country by thoro| organization of the Nicaraguan con-| stabulary officered by Americans, by| reimbursing the United States for expenses incurred in superintending| the Nicaraguan election, and by a full payment of all American claims for alleged damages incurred during the recent fighting. After outlining the sources by! which the American bankers will se-! cure the proposed loan, Dr. Cumber-| land added that the Nicaraguan cost | of maintaining the projected Nicara-! guan railroad to the east coast would be $900,000 per year more than oper- ating expenses. He therefore indi- cated the fruitful possibilities for in- newal was possible unless the United tude, ARISH OFFIGIALS IGNORE PETITION DUBLIN, May 24.—The govern- ment of the Irish Free State has frus- trated an attempt of Eamon de Valera to present a petition to the Eireann calling for abolition of the oath of allegiance to the king, The application to present the petition Free State Constitution which author- izes a referendum on the request of 75,000 voters.
