A group of Wall street bankers | with international connections talked | the matter over late yesterday. When the meeting adjourned the situation it was said, was still indefinite and plans in embryo. It toward the end of the that a syndicate of bankers might be formed to finance the loan and that | tho issuc might consist of one, five and ten-year bonds. Called On By ¥ngiland. This report published on two tick- ers widely read in Wall street, furn- ished the onmly indication as to how for negotiations had progressed. Tt lack of definiteness reflected the gen- cral feeling that the big bankers of the cet had been called on by England to suggest terms of such a loan and that negotiations were in | prcgress over the cables to set the i foreign exchange situation right. Un- til these negotiations are concluded— and it scemed apparent that they had not been cencluded today—there wiil no official announcement concern- ing them, it is understood, It was thought significant that the i talk today was of a loan whose long- cst issue | Heretofore, two ycars had been men- tioncd as the maximum lensth of the ;lnsm. In some circles, publication of | the proposal was regarded as a feeler : for financial opinion as to the desir- {ammy of financing a loan for ten vears. In previous foreign loans the term has been short and American bankers generally have considered that investors in this country would not take as kindly to a long term foreign loan as the$ would to one having a life of not more than three years. Need For $300,000,000 Loan The outstanding fact at the close of today’s exchange markets was the imperative and immediate need for a loan of not less than $300,000,000 ‘o restore rates to normal or thereabouts. There was every indication that unless some action of this sort were speedily taken sterling, francs and lires would be still further depressed and the financial burden placed on foreign buyers of American products would be correspondingly increased. Statement By Sir George Paish. A signed statement by Sir George Paish, the British authority on finan- ces who was ‘sent here by the govern- ment of Great Britain last fall to un- ravel the tangled web of international credits, given to the Associated Press in London and cabled to New York, was read with keen interest by inter- national financiers. They thought Sir George’s analysis of the conditions and speculation as to future condi- tions which American manufacturers and producers might face, was in- teresting—and not in full accord with the American viewpoints.” Sir George's statement, in the opinion of some of these bankers, added little if anything to the in- formation already in possession of the of monied interests in close touch with the situation, al- though it was regarded as a clear ex- pression of the English viewpoint which heretofore had not been gen- erally understood by American manu- facturers and investors. One promi- nent banker said that in his opinio; however, it offered no remedy for the present condition. Exchange Markets Quieter. The exchange markets were quieter vesterday than Monday. Deprecia- ! tion of foreign money extended vir- tually throughout the entire list, em- bracing Reichsmarks and Spanish pesetas, which fell to new low rec- ords, the former on cables to Ham- burg and Berlin. In the opinion of some bankers, a great deal of the 'acfii'.y and weakness was attributed PINPLES DISFIGURED FAGE AND NECK Would Irritate and Burn, Ashamed ToGoOut.

They would irritate and I would scratch them which would make them bleed and burn something awful. My face and neck were disfigured and I was ashamed to go out; I could not wear a collar.

The arrival here for Great Britain's account of approximately $5,000,000 gold coin from Ottawa, had no effect whatever on rates. The amount was regarded as insignificant in the light of Europe’s big obligations here whict American maufacturers pressed for payment. This shipment took the un usual form of Japanese yen. Nor was the market buoyed by rcpetition of vesterday’s report that more gold was on the way for this center from Australia or South Africa. WARHOP GETS RELEASE. Yankees Management Grant Player's Request For Release. New York, N. Y. August Jack (Hops) Warhop, the underhanded gunner of the will not follow Ed Sweeney in Richmond. Jack balked at the idea of going to the most southern precinct of Ed Barrow’s jurisdiction. Warhop still thinks he is good enough to pitch in any big league and has asked for his unconditfonal release. As Hops has been a loval servant of the club for many years his request was granted. The Yanks also had no objection io tearing up Hop's three-year contract. which was just in its first year. War- hop ig likely to cling on with some Federal league team, or may find a haven with his old boss, George Stal- lings, in Boston. Harry Sparrow announced yesterday the Yanks have purchased the leading hitter of the Southern association. He is Outfielder T. G. Hendryx of the New Orleans club. The latest aver- ages show him hitting .321. Hendryx was up in the majors be- fore. He was with the Cleveland Naps in 1911 and 1912 but he was only a kid at the time, as he is only twen- ty-four years old now. He weighs 180 pounds, is five feet ten inches and bats and throws right-handed. 18.— former Yanks, to exile PROBING OCEAN TRAFFIC. All Information Turned Over to I C. C.

W. . s large stock- holder in the company owning the Eastland, intimated that an inspection would be made of the boat to ascer- tain whether it can be overhauled and made safe.

BULL MOOSE WILL BE STRONG IN 1916 ! | i Perkins Tells Progressives To Stick To Party And Not Try To Reform G. O. P. New York, Aug. 18.—George W. Peérkins, chairman of the national ex ecutive cornmittee of the progressive party, in an address last night before | New York county progressives, told in detail why he considered it a mis- take for progressives to leave the party- and attempt to reform the rec publican party from within and serted that the belief that the pro- gressive party was dwindling in ine bership was, in his judgment, f: lacious. “It must be remembered,” he said, “that in 1912 our party was formed largely on national and state iss had to be. Next ycar the situation will be different. Many of the ques- tions treated in our 1912 platform have since been taken up by platforms and will, therefore, not nec essarily Le a part of our 1916 plat form. Our strength in 1916 will b very great.” Any progressive who chould now leave his part;y for the republican ! party, Mr. Perkins said, would do so “with his eyes wide open, in the face | of notive after notice from the re- publican managers that they are go- ing right ahead with thei~ old or; inal program, have not the slightest | intention of mpadifying, but by ch legislation as Mr. Barnes proposes, in- | tend, if pot ble to fasten and perpe- tuate upon the peeple of this state their pet reactionary ideas.” ELECTS G, O, P.

It was agreed that the first movement would be directed against munition plants and other large establishments profiting from the unprecedented demand of European countries for war sup- plies. In announcing the decision, Pres dent W. H. Johnston of the interna tional union sail it was not the polic of the board to hring about a general strike but to deal with the situations as ‘they exist locally.
