RUSSIA is AFTER
ANOTHER LOAN
Germany Will Probably Refuse-Bankers
Are Expecting Financial
Crash in Russia,

Berlin, Nov. 1.-THE associated press
is informed on the highest authority
that Dr. Won MIGUEL, Prussian minis
ter of finance. had a long conference
to-day with Emperor William. 1t ap-
pears that one of the subjects discussed
during the visit of Emperor Nicholas
last week was the raising of another
Russian loan in Germany, Russia hav-
ing failed to effect one anywhere else
in Europe. This explains why DR.. Won
Miguel was present Wednesday even
ing, along with Count Won Buelow and
Count Muravieff, the German and Rus
sian foreign ministers, at the interview
between the czar and the kaiser
Emperor William. 1t is definitely as
serted, made no promise to the czar in
the matter, leaving it understood that
whether the German government would
favor another Russian loan here or not
depended largely upon DIR. Won Miquals
answer to-day, prepared at the empar-
or's request. In the meanwhile DR.. Won
Miguel consulted with the leading Ger
man financiers, nearly all of whom dis
couraged the proposal, as they have
been reliably informed that the Trans
Siberian railroad is likely to prove far
more expensive than is generally sur
missed. Moreover, a Russian financial
crash is expected soon.
To-day DR.. Won Miguel reported to
this effect to the kaiser and it may be
considered certain that the proposed
loan here has failed.

II LOOKS LIKE MURDER
Montana Cattleman Found in
the Hudson. -,
ROBBERY WAS THE MOTIVE
All the Pockets Turned Inside Out-An
Ugly Cash on the Head-Death
Instan ntaneous-Result of
Coroners Inquest.
Special Dispatch to the Standard.

u.
New York, Nov. 12.-The body of a
man identified by papers as John w.
Taylor, a cattleman of Livingston,
Mont, was found yesterday morning
floating in the North river off Fifth
street Hobollen. Indications point to
murder and robbery. All the pockets
with the exception of an inside one
OF value except d one cent piece had
been taken. On the right side of the
head back of the ear. is cash four
inches long, extending through to ths
brain, and evidently made with knife.
Death must have been instantaneous.
The body was found by Oscar Pc
ters. captain Of the lighter Edward
f. W., who towed it to the ferry land
ing at Hoboken. From there the Do-
lice had it taken - w. S. Parslow's
undertaking establishment in Wash-
iington street, Hoboken.
All the garments and shoes were
new. Papers found in the clothing
showed that he was an EnglishmaH
and from Manchester. His naturali-
cation papers, dated April H. 1894, and
signed by Alfred Barton Of Hemming-
ford, Box Butte county, Neb., We're also
found, together with letters from rela-
tives in Manchester. One letter dated
Livingston Oct. L. 1899, showed that
Taylor was cattle dealer and man
of means.
The body measured four feet seven
inches in height He was a man of
middle age and his face had been clean
shaven just before death. The Ho-
boken police believe that Taylor was
murdered in New York and Captain
McClCsky has been requested to inves-
tigate the case. All of the Hoboken
and Jersey City hotels We're visited by
reporter, but no one by Taylor's
name or description had registered at
any of them. The reporter found that
a man answering his description had
taken a room at No. 213 West Forty
second street, just one week ago. He
paid for his room in advance and then
left, saying he would send his trunks
over from the-Grand Central station.
Since that day nothing has been heard
or seen of him. He paid for his room
out of bag of $50 gold pieces.
The Hoboken police wired to Mon
tana last night to obtain more infor-
nation regarding Taylor. One of the
letters found in the dead mans pocket
was signed Your loving niece, Annie. Z
The writer expressed pleasure that
Uncle Jack" intended spending the
winter in Manchester and asked him
to let her know on what steamer he
intended sailing.
The autopsy held to-day indicates
that the man came to his death by
drowning. No marks of violence were
found except cut on the back of the
head and that, Coroner Converse says.
was caused by the body coming in con-
tact with the pier. The body had been
in the water about a week. The Ho-#
boken police do not believe the man
to have been a victim Of foul play.

HOBART'S CONDITION..
He Continues to Improve and Eats Solid
Food,


Paterson, N. J.. Nov. 12.-Vice Pres
ident Hobart passed a favorable night
and the improvement that has been OBJ
served for several days continued to-
day. He ate solid food with relish ard
it was promptly assimilated. With his
meats he took milk and between meats
was given milk punches.
This is a marked change from his con-
dition 10 days ago. At that time he was
rapidly sinking and his stomach had
refused food of all kinds. For several
days he lived on grapes and the juice
of grape food, but it soon appeared that
his stomach was so congested that he
could not even take these.
Mr.. Hobart now spends most of his
time in a reclining position and he
sleeps without the aid of opiates. The
most painful and alarming feature of
his illness has been his attacks of ner-
vousness as night approaches. These
attacks have decreased.
Mrs. Hobart, who has spent nearly
every minute of her time during the
past two weeks at the bedside of her
husband, feels very much encouraged
and has had more rest than formerly.
Vice President Hobart spent to-day
chatting with Mrs. Hobart and those
about him. At 1890 tonight Mr. Ho-
bart was sound asleep.
