RUSSIAN LOAN TERMS.
s1O0,0OO,00O Treasury Fire Per
Cent Fire Year Bonds.

Paris, May 6-The following authoritative
statement made to The Associated Press
to-day from the highest government source
concerning the details and circumstances of the
new Russian loan:
The cost of the war for the first five months,
up to June !. including So, jo0,N9 for railroad
equipment. is S125,O0000o. After June ! the
monthly cost OF the war will be $3.5OO,OOO for
the navy and S15000O00 for the army at the
front: making the total war expense about
500, 100000 for the year closing January l
next.
The first part of the war was more expensive
than the later owing to the cost Of mobiliza-
tion and the general expenses incident 10 set
ting the machinery in motion.
Against these extraordinary expenses we may
have certain eConomes-namely, S3o,OGhOoo. on
the ordinary budget S21.50o000 on the ex-
budgets, making the total economies S6I,Voo.-
000
When tine var began the Russian government
had between s1500O0O0o and $200,000OOo TO
its credit in the Bank Of Russia and with for
egn bankers. According 10 the Monetary law
of 1897. which made gold the standard for Rus
STA. there a stock of gold amounting 10
S475O00O00 and a note issue of S3J00DO0Oo
Therefore, Russia could still have placed in cir
culation $200OO0OOO to $2jOOOoOOO In notes
without mpairing in the slightest the gola
law of 1897
BY so doing. however the monetary situation
after the war might have been less satisfactory
than at present Accordingly. for the purpose
of protecting the internal monetary situation
the Russian government has lent a faVorapIe
10 proposals made by French bankers, ana
has opened negotiations at St petersburg with
Joseph Hoettnguer of the house of Hoettin-
guer e. Co. and with NJ. Noetzlin, one Of the d.
rectors of the Banque de Paris ct des Pays Bias.
They have made two visits to ST. Petersburg, ana
are leaving there tomorrow for PARIS. Inc
purpose Of their visit IS to negotiate the issue
of treasury bonds, running five years. at > per
cent. These are going 70 he offered 10 custom
ers of the big French financial houses at near
par.
The Russian government reserves the right
after five years 10 make use or its internal
credit TO convert o. consolidate these hVe-year
bonds into funded debt bearing "A lower rate
of interest. The amount likely TO be taken up

contracting houses are TO place the full
amount they underwTite among their customers
Therefore, public issue is 10 be made
The foregoing differs from other reports con-
corning the amount of the loan, but owing TO
the authoritative source it can be accepted as

says, after five years experience with Peruna.

This explains why Peruna has become so IN

that meets these cases exactly.
Such cases cannot be treated locally; nothing
but an effective systemic remedy could cure
them. This is exactly what Peruna is.

There is no news from the far east
either from Russian or the Japanese
sources. For the world watchers of
the great tragedy, the curtain has
been dropped and all Is conjecture.
Not even an expression of opinion
was heard from the Japanese sources
but from st. Petersburg 1t is indicated
by the authorities that the critical
stage of the Russian retreat is past
and that Kuropatlkin is no longer in
danger of losing any part of the forces
to the pursuing Japanese. The Rus
sian commander has arrived at
Mukden and 1t is given out in st. Be-
tersburg that the bulk of his army
is now near there, while n dispatch
from Mukden to the Associated Press
filed Tuesday, says that the main
Russian army Is pushing northward,
and evacuating that place. 1t Is in
dicated that the Japanese are still
harrassing the Russian rear. Further
than this, nothing is known. An alb
solute news silence prevails.
