JAPANESE
 LOAN UNDECIDED

Paris, March S.-The question of the big Japanese loan is still unde- cided. The situation is as follows: NJ. Takashi, the Japanese financial agent, was sent from London to Paris to float s125, 100000 in 4 per cents, being the remainder of the $250, 100000 loan contemplated at the close of the war in 1905 for re- funding operations, and of which only one-half was then issued M Takashi found the London finan- ciers too exacting on account of the stringency and not disposed to pay more than the current quota tion of Imperial As, about SS. The Paris and Brussels bankers were. more favorably disposed and better terms seemed possible, but under the circumstances the question arose as to whether it would not be better to issue 5s at par for reliev- ing the 6s. No decision has been reached. Competent Japanese sources insist there has been no check in the negotiations here, but rather the contrary

THE GERMAN
 AMERICAN ALLIANCE

Brooklyn, N. Y., March S.-At a public meeting of the German voters of this city today steps were taken toward the amalgamation of all Germans in the city into one central organization. The Independent Ger man American Union, the German Municipal League and the Independ- ent League were represented and the leading German residents were present. The object of the combi- nation is to influence the elections as far as possible in favor of the German element, but aside from this the policy of the alliance was declared to be strictly non-partisan. A banquet will be held in the Arion Hall tonight, when the principal speakers will be Bird s. Coler, Con- troller Metz, County udge Fawcett, John B. Creighton and Edward M. Bassett.

THE OLD KEY MANSION IN GEORGETOWN, cred to collect funds, buy and hold property, etc. The incorporat tors, in ad- dition to Mir. Smith, are Admiral George Dewey, Rear Admiral Win 6eld Scott Schley, retired; ex-Senator Louis E. McComas of Maryland, H. B. F. Mcfarland. commissioner of the District of Columbia: Justice Ashley NJ. Gould and other men of high stand ing.
 There are numerous descendants of Francis Scott Key. but 1t is about half century since any of his family lived in the old mansion. In the meantime the neighborhood has changed and looks little as 1t did when the "ol.l families" lived there in Keys day. Formerly there were terraced grounds leading down to the Potomac river. Streets have since been cut through. and the buildings which have been erected have shut off the view the Key. family used to have of the Potomac. Shops and booths have sprung up around the house. and it is plasteretl over with the signs of trade. Recently it was proposed to tear it down to make way for stores, and this led to the movement to buy and preserve it and restore it as nearly as possible to the condition it was in when Key lived in it. The house is supposed to be at least 16O years old.
 It was during the British attack on old Fort McHenry in 1914 that Key wrote ''rhe Star Spangled Banner" :" He was temporarily prisoner on a British ship, having visited the British admiral under flag of truce to SC cure the release of a friend who had been seized as prisoner. He was de- tained by the British until after the bombardment of the fort and thus witnessed the attack from poin. of vantage. He waited anxiouSly until morning to see which colors fOated from the ramparts and when he saw the stars and stripes was overcome with joyful emotion. The lines
 Oh. say can you see
 By the dawn's early light
 What SO proudly we hailed
 At the twilight's last cleaning? came to him as an inspiration and were quickly committed to the back of a letter, the poem being finished soon afterward and set to the tune of An acreon In Heaven"

 Aug. 9, 17SO and was the son of John Ross Key, a Revolutionary officer. He studied at St. Johns college. George town. and read law in the office of his uncle, Philip Barton Key. He began the practice of the legal profession in Frederick City, Md, but afterward re-
 moved to Washington, where he achieved a high standing at the bar. serving for some years as district at
 torney. His fondness for poetry led him to compose much verse. A vol ume of his works was published in 1857, ten years after his death
 Among the best known of the poems aside from "The Star Spangled Ban ner," are the hymns, Lord. With Glowing Heart Praise Thee" and joyed a happy married life and had several children. The old house in Georgetown now known as the key mansion" was his home for the most of the time that he resided in Wash- ington. His great grandson, Francis Scott Key Smith, a Washington attor- ney, believes it is beyond question that he lived here at the time his most fa- nous poem was composed. MT. Smith says that. although the lawyer-poet did rot get the deed to the property until 1880. it had been his home for many years prior to that year. a cloud on the title having prevented the deed being passed to him at an earlier date. Mr. Smith has been prominent in the movement to buy and preserve the house. Owing to the efforts of those interested ill keeping such an interest ing landmark from being destroyed there was formed in .Jaauary last the Francis Scott Key Memorial associa- tion. incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia and empow-
