Dir. Morgan Arranges Al Financial

Paris. May 3.-Having wound up the details
of the big financial transaction connected with
the Panama transfer. ]. Pierpont Morgan left
Paris this afternoon for Aix-es-B ains. Before
his departure he made public the main points
OF the agreement. as follows:
The Panama Canal Company wished to have
the money turned over in Paris instead OF IN the
United States. and willing TO pay all the
expenses incident 10 the payment here. In order
10 accomplish this the United States has APP
pointed the Morgan company fiscal agents for
the purpose OF the payment the Morgan com
pany in turn TO make contract with the Pan
ANA company whereby the S4OOOOOOO VIII be
paid in Paris This contract specifies the
Banque de France depository. and also the
proportion of the payments going 10 the old ana
the new Panama companies respectively. The
signing OF this contract closes the transaction.
there only remaining for the Morgan company
TO carry il out by making payments from time
to time to the Banque de France. This will be
done to cause no disarrangenent or the
American French money market.
The report that a syndicate Of Paris bankers is
interested is incorrect. The appointment OF the
Morgan company as fiscal agent places the
whole transa ctioE in its hands. 1t will be asso-
ciated with I.aZard ETereS and other houses OF
a similar character in New-York and here. but
so far as the United States is concerned it in
trusts the financing operations to the Morgans.
The other details correspond with those fore
Swallowed in the dispatches Of April %
The contract covering the financial operations
bears the signature of Messrs. Day and Russell,
the United States Assistant Attorneys General;
the liquidatOr Of the old company, the officers
of the new company and the Morgan company.
Aessrs Day and Russell will remain here an
other week to secure copies of the papers. etc,
but they consider the transaction closed.
