The latest information from Paris Is ID
the import that the French Cabinet has
decided that Indifference to the affair OF
the Panama Canal, in which 81 many
scores of m llious of French savings an,
invested, is inadmi>sible; Government
must do something in the matter" The
Bdnqse d Escompte has therefore laid the
following scheme before the Ministers.
and they are now considering it An issue
of fifteen hundred thousand bonds of -
francs each, with a lottery attachment, to
be reimbursed at 100 francs each at the
end of IS years. This financial combina-
ton, say its supporters, would please the
public. and would undoubtedly be success
full. 1t would produce sum of 81, 500. 900
francs, on which the twelve millions
necessary to run the company for the ten
months and the money to redeem the stock
from American hands would be lent.
Most likely the French Cabinet will give
its adhesion to this scheme. and during
the ten moaths many other combinations
may be made, to be In readiness when tn.
commission makes its report. 1t NAV do
Tor French politicians TO talk in this vein
before the French public, but should the
French Government seriously attempt to
carry out the programme thus Indicated
II would soon strike rather a solid snag.
