TO SHARE
STATE DEPARTMENT ON
CHINESE LOAN.
Great Britain Merely Asks Delay
Until the Project Has Been
More Fully Discussed.
IFrom The Trih1ne Bureau. |

Washington. June 1S-Despite the positive
assertion in dispatches from London that the
British government has asked the United states
not to press her claim for participation in the
Chinese railroad loan of S27, 100000 which Brit
ish. French and German bankers are prepared
to float the State Department has not received
such representations from Great Britain. nor
does it fear that the United States will be elimi
mated
Ambassador Bryce has requested the State
Department that the United States withhold
pressing its claim portion of the loan until
the matter is more fully discussed by the rep
resentatves of the powers interested in il. This
request is not made with any view to depriving
United States banking interests OF their right
to participate in the loan, but in order that the
negotiations between the Chinese government
ana the foreign bankers, which almost com
pleted. shall not be impeded in any way, and
that the consummation of the loan itself may
not be endangered
The representations made by the British En-
bassy to the State Department point out the
delicacy which has been required to carry
negotiations with the Chinese government sue
Cessfully, and the request Is made that the
United States proceed in its efforts to obtain a
part of the loan with particular care, in order
that the work which has been done by the
British, French and German interests may not
be entirely nullifed. There is little doubt that
the State Department will grant this request,
and Will assure Great Britain that this govern
ment has all along taken the foreign interests
into consdera ton
That America will obtain q fair share Of t1e
loan is not doubted for a moment either 10y the
State Department or the British Embassy here
Great Britain, the State Department feels
sured. would be one of the last nations 10
adopt obstructive policy in regard to tie de-
velopment of this country's commercial inter
ests in China.
