ment of internal revenue tax, sugar so eN-
ported will not be subject TO. additional
duty under section 3.

DENIED BY MINISTER WI
Has No Authority to Negotiate Re-
Gnrding a Loan to China

Il notice reports that l am negotiating
with New York parties to take part of a
Chinese loan" said Minister WI TODAY
These reports originated in New York
and when they Were brought to my atten-
tion l specifically contradcted them. As
a matter of fact / have received no au-
thority from my government to take any
action in this matter. or course, / have
entertained the hope that some time In the
future American investors might be at
tracted by Chinese securities But that is
a matter for the future and there are
some points which make it doubtful
whether such plan could be realized AS
1 have said heretofore American inter-
est rates are rather high. Moreover, lust
q little prejudice has been excited In China
through the fact that when the American
railway concession was granted some con-
siderable portion of the interests was dis
posed of to Belgian parties For the pres
ent there could be no consideration of
where a loan is to he placed so long as
the amount of indemnitfes remains open"
1t seems that Niceroy Chan Chi Tung
one of the provisional plenipotentiares is
taking an active interest in settling the in
IDENTITIES. and continues to be hopeful that
instead of a lump payment each power will
consent to receive it's proportion in INSTALL
ments, thus obviating large bulk loan at
a high interest rate.
