It is mentioned in some of the Continental papers that
the negotiations recently opened between the Turkish
Government and the house of eminent Hebrew capita-
lists fora loan of 5,000,000/. could not be satisfactorily
arranged. An offer, it is alleged, was made for a 5 per
cent. security at 90, with 3 per cent, commission ; but
the Porte, it is stated, refused to entertain the terms.
Any tendency to speculative animation in this country
would, there is reason to expect, lead to proposals for a
fresh operaton of magnitude.
