Secret meetings were held to-day between the Anglo-French mission, headed by Baron Reading, and lead- ing New York bankers to work out the details. By night some formal an- nouncement is expected. The tenta- tive arrangement ts as follows: British and French governments to give short term notes, running from one to five years, No collateral to be deposited by the borrowers, the credit and faith of the governments being the only security. ‘The loan to take precedence, sub- stantially as a first mortgage, over all other outstanding obligations. Cash payments for certain pur- chases made in this country by the allied Governments aside from tho credit account. Rate of interest probably 6 per cent. One point is still unsettled. That Telates to separate financing of Gov- ernment war orders from ordinary commercial trade transactions The Anglo-French mission contends that this cannot be done. The American bankers are inclined to agree with them from a financial standpoint, but @ large number of them are afraid of hostile public opinion if they loan de- Positors’ money to buy bullets. One of the leading conferees said to- day that some form of distinction was “probable.” The British and French may be required to pay gold for their war supplies, thus leaving the huge credit account for trade transactions. According to the theories of ablest financiers and students of economics, the loan is as necessary to the pros- Perity of the United States as it is to the war success of the allies, Although this country bas more money than any other and millions of gold are pouring in every month, the financiers pointed out the imminent danger of a panic of stagnation, unless measures were taken to promote foretgn trade. Therefore, the loan, they declared, must be made for our own benefit. ‘The stumbling block in negotiations of the past week has been over the question of the borrowers depositing securities as collateral. Baron Read- ing and his associates stated that they were not authorized to put up col- h of any kind—in fact, they had none, The talk of foreign-owned American securities was futile, be- cause the Government did not have them in hand, The visiting commissioners stood firmly on the simple promise of their respective Governments to pay and they were ready to terminate negoti- ations if more was demanded. The American bankers then agreed to forego the demand for collateral and accept the unsecured notes of Great Britain and France. a NEW YORK COTTON EXCHANGE. he New York Cat. id at $13,000, Previous 12,260.” Cotton expor 1 bales, an increase @ on Ley, Basil 8.BLACKETT RW OOP UNSER RWwoeD SLEEPWALKER TAKES PLUNGE INTO RIVER Martin Rescued After a Somnambulistic Stunt That Amazed Polic Emanuel Martin, thirty two, of No. 164 South Street, did a sleep walking stunt early to-day that amazed the police and came near costing him his life. About 4 o'clock he arose, walked down the steps, crossed South Street, climbed into a wagon by tho fence at the bulkhead, reached the bulk- head and stepped off into the river, The water woke him and his cries were heard by Louis Roberts of No. 1468 Fulton Street. By the time Roberta reached the bulkhead the tide was carrying Martin toward the Roosovelt Strect forry house. Martin climbed down a Iadder alongside the ferry house and dived into the river, He had to swim thirty feet to reach the drowning man, but got him just as he was about to be swept under the ferry house, He swam with him to the ladder, and Po- liceman Kennedy of the Oak Street station tossed a rope to him. This was tied around Martin's waist and he was hauled up. At the Volunteer Hospital he was revived and later went home, ———— MINE PERIL IN WHITE SEA, Emanuel voyed by Mint-Sweepers. So perilous have the Germans made the White Sea, according to some of the 112 passengers who arrived to-day on the Russian-American Haer Kursk, from Archangel, that ships departing from that port have to be preceded and ac- companied by trawlers and mine-sweep- ers to avoid being blown up. The Kurak was in constant wireless communication with her convoy of mine-sweepers, they say, and a number of times the ship had to stop dead for hours when warned that there vere were being cleared away. The Germans haw hired Norwegian fishermen to plant the mines, said the people on the Kursk. Dr, H, C, Leinweber, formerly em ployed tn the Library of Congress at Washington, with his family came on the Kurak.

HONOLULU, Sept. 17.—Am explosion of her batteries caused the loss of the United States submarine F-4 and the deaths of her crew, in Honolulu Har- bor, March 26 last. This has been definitely established by naval ex- perta who zamined the wreck of the submersible. Electrical engineers say all four fuses were blown out and that sections of the batteries which remained intact in the debris within the vessel show unmistakable evidences of an expio- sion. Damage to the battery deck in- dicates the force of the explosion. Battery explosions are caused by ac- cumulations pf hydrogen ¢, which is generated while the batteries are be- ing charged.
