and the Stratheden, from Sydney, £30,000.
The Atrato, Royal Mail steamer, for the West
Indies, will take out £14,300, of which the chief
proportion is gold.
The statement that the Turkish Goverlment are
about to contract a loan of £2,000,000 through
Messrs. Lafitte and Co., of Paris, has been re-
ceived with some surprise, and the authenticity of
the, announcement is questioned in several quarters.
Fresh financial aid, it is said, is required; but
other arrangements than those involved in a direct
public loan were, it is understood, contemplated.
If this new loan is brought forward it should not
be on terms more advantageous than the transac-
tion of the early part of the year, conducted through
the ageny of Messrs. Devaux and Co. and the Otto-
Man Bank.
