TAFT To MEET
KAISER ON THE
ISLE Of WIGHT

Berlin, Nov. s-Emperor william will
see Secretary Taft at Osborne house, Isle
Of Wight, during his majesty's visit to
England, a message conveying this wish
was sent through the German embassy Mt
Washington. II is regarded as likely that
Mr.. Taft will also seek an audience OF
King Edward. as otherwise It might ap-
pear TO be too much OF a demonstration
for the American statesman to visit the
German Emperor on British soil without
paying equivalent respect to the king.
SO much has been said about Mr.. Taft
planning to see the emperor that some of
tho other governments have seemingly be-
come anxious in regard TO whether any
thing is intended by the step taken by
the American government.
Ambassador Bryce and Ambassador
Jusserand, II Is asserted here, have al
ready made inquiries on the subject at
the state department at Washington, and
Il Is further asserted that there Us feel
ing at the foreign offices of London and
Paris that Mr.. Taft would be neglecting
King Edward and President Fallieres IL
he did not ask to see them on his way
home or II he stopped only at St Peters
burg and Berlin while on his way back 10

GOLD ENGAGED

New York. Nov. 8.-The advance in the
discount rate OF tho Imperial Bank OF
Germany from 6is to ~ per cent, an
nounced today from Berlin, Is further
evidence of the determination OF Euro
pean money centres to protect their gold
stocks against depletion by tho United
States. The advance was fully antici-
pated as Governor Koch of the Imperial
German bank said week ago that an
increase in the English bank rate would
lead to similar action by Germany. The
rate as now fixed Is the highest tho Ger
man bank has ever had. Only small
part of the recent American gold engage
ments have been taken directly from Ger
many. But tho German stock of gold
has been depleted Indirectly as the Ameri-
can engagements az other Europea n
money markets have resulted In large ex-
ports OF gold from the Reichs bank TO
England and Holland. The American gold
engagements already placed In Europe
approximate $i0. 900, so that the present
increases of foreign bank rates do not
operate as seriously as they might have
done during the early days OF the money
stringency. About $2O00O.000 of gold has
already reached New York, including tho
Lusitania's stock OF 100000 brought
ashore today.
Aside from the gold movements tho
financial situation shows an absence OF
notable developments and steady tendency
back to normal conditions.
