MONEY FOR CHINA,
London and Eerlin Financiers
Anxious to Furnish Ii

London and EerIin Financiers
Anxious to Furnish Ii.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE financiers of
this city, Berlin and other capitals Of
Europe are eagerly discussing the pro-
posed Chinese loan. Inquiries made by
a representative of the Associated Press
at the offices of Jardine. Matheson
& Co., London and China mer-
chants, and at the Offices of the Hong
Kong & Shanghai Bank company, show
that the loan which the great banking
institutions of Berlin are said to be
floating for China amounts to 10000, 600
taels, and not to El0.000,000 as previ-
ously announced here and in Berlin. A
tael is estimated 10 be worth about one
ounce and one-third of silver, or,
roughly speaking, six shillings sterling,
or Sl.40, supposing that these amounts
represent the valU9 of silver of the
weight of one tael.
1t appears that about a month ago
China inquired through the Hong Kong
81 Shanghai bank for the rates at
which loan could be effected. The
bank Immediately offered to loan the
Chinese government 81. 900, ,0o0.or IS, ,o00,-
uUU. Jarulne. MatneSon u Co., who had
also been consulted in regard to the
proposed Chinese loan, offered to lend
China another e1.O00,0J0, or as much
more as the government should require.
But Viceroy Ii Hung Chang declined
both offers at that time, saying that
there was no immediate need for the
money. as China had plenty to 20 on
with. Later, however, it became known
that in view OF the repayment of the
last portions of the present aud per
ceut gold bonds due at the Hong Kong
u Shanghai bank in January. 1895,
ana in view also of the war needs,
China desired to increase the amount of
her available cash. a syndicate OF
German bankers was at once formed in
Berlin, and their agents at Tien Tsin
were instructed TO ask Vicproy Lii Hung
Chang ror an option on the loan. Dnz-

Whatever its original pur pose. the
irresistible tendency of the Republican
policy has been to corrupt the govern
ment. The longer that policy was ap-
piled the more marked the tendency has
been, and the sugar trust lobby in and
about the senate is its Logical and
Inevitable outcome. The moment legis-
lation is so framed as to benefit certain
private Interests. those interests will
seek 10 influence legislati on, and the
greater the profit to be obtained from

JAPS RECRUITING.
One Thousand Americans Wanted
for officers.

Los ANGELES. Aug. 17.-The Herald
says: An effort is being made in this
city, by man who IS said to represent
the Japanese government. to secure the
services of 1000 men to go to the do
main of the mikado and help the ,Japa-
neSe in their struggle with the Chinese.
The sum of S25 per month, besides
transportation to and from Japan and
necessary rationS are promised those
who will enlist. Because of the ex-
treme penalty attached TO al endeavor
of this kind. under the law governing
the treaty with foreign countries, the
agent has made himself known to bat
few people. Those whom he will Sc
cure are ostensibly employed to engage
in railroad construction, but the real
object is to go into active war against
Japan's enemy. the Chinese. 1t is con-
tended that regiment of 1000 men
would furnish material from which
officers could be secured to lead the
nations troops.

FoRTIFYING GREAT WALL.
Chinese Preparing to Resist Jap

VICTORIA. B. c., Aug. II. - The
steamer Empress of Japan, which left
Yokohama Aug. 5. has arrived here.
She brings news of the capture by the
Japanese of Lii Hung Changes tavorite
dispatch boat, the Bang Yang. She also
brings word of the sinking of a first
class Japanese CT uiser by the Chinese
man-of-war Chen Yuen, commanded by
Admiral Liu PaltZeng. The Japanese
papers do not give the name of the
cruiser that was sunk.
The Japanese are doing their utmost
to throw the whole blame of the de-
struction of the transport KOw Shing
with its load of Chinese soldiers upon
piratic Chinese, and blandly assert that
the British government, whose flag the
Kow Shing was flying, will have the
strongest kind of a claim for damages
against China.
The king of Korea, on July 27. ordered
the release of five important state prls-
oners who were connected with the
Korean rebellion of 1884.
1t is reported that the government of
Korea has formally notified Japan of
her intention to sever all connection
with China.
The Japanese preparations for the
DOmDarument or the woo Sung (ChIna)
forts are rapidly nearing completion.
Mail advices received at Yokohama
from Shanghai report that Vicerov Lii
Hung Chang is making large and i'm
portant additions to the defense of
Shang Kan Kuug, where the great wall
meets the sea, in order to make the
railway secure against attack by The

has been divided into two squadronS.
One of them is cruising in the Gulf of
