LOOKING FOR Cash.
Financiers Are Anticipating Demand
for Big War Indemnity.

Berlin, July 27.-In view of the
proba bility of an early peace between
Russia and Japan, the terms of which
will involve the payment of a very
heavy indemnity by Russia, the finan-
ciers of Europe have been holding con-
ferences to the end that the peace in
demnity may be paid without seriously
disturbing the finances of the world.
The Mendelssohns. the Berlin bankers,
who have been for many years the
representatives on the continent of the
Russian government, and who have
negotiated many of the Russian loans,
have formed an alliance with the
Rothschilds in respect of the matter
and have held communications with all
the leading financial institutions both
on the continent and in England. They
are about to send their representatives
to New York, with a view to enlisting
the cooperation of the larger financial
institutions of the United States.
1t is likely that a Russian loan for
the purpose of paying the indemnity
will be scattered and that a consider
able portion of it will be taken in the
United States. J. Pierpont Morgan,
after having conferred with a number
of ,financiers of England, is sailing to-
day for home.

North Sydney, C. B.. July 27.-The Arc
tic steamer Roosevelt, bearing Commander
Robert z. Peary's latest expedition,
swung clear of Terminal wharf and head
ed northward on her voyage of discovery
toward the North pole at precisely q

which had gathered to witness her de-
parture, burst into cheers which were
mingled with the whistles of the steam
ers, and the demonstration continued as
the steamer passed down the harbor. The
city had been gaily decorated for the oc-
casion Lieutenant Commander Peary in
speaking of the expedition shortly before
his departure showed firm confidence that

CRISIS IS PASSED.
Swedish Parliament Adopts Report OF
Committee of Dissolution.

Stockholm, July 27.-Both houses Of
the parliament today approved the re-
port of the special committee which
dealt with the crisis between Norway
and Sweden. In the first chamber the
report was adopted without debate.
In the second chamber the recommen-
dation in the report regarding negotia-
tions for a dissolution was adopted un-
animously but there was some opposi-
ton to the proposed loan of $25.0OO,OO0
to meet the new conditions. About a
score of members voted against the
loan, the social democratic leader, Herr
Pranting pointing out the danger of mill
itarism and declaring that the proposed
loan was contrary to the peaceful spirit
of the recommendation to negotiate. 1t
was a dangerous precedent he said, for
Sweden never heretofore had borrowed
money for military purpose and he fear
ed Norway would regard it as being in
the nature of a threat of war. This
view was contested by other speakers
who pointed out that the riksdag by
its unanimous approval of the condition
of dissolution had voiced its willingness
to dissolve the union and its desire for
peace both in the present and in the fu-
ture
