Appealed to Chinese Regent
on Behalf Of Bankers.
GERMAN INFLUENCE GREAT
British, French and German Bankers
Applying Pressure to induce China
to Stick to the Original Loan Agree
Warns British Minister There That
Present Methods Must Cease.

Peking, July 27.-The success of
President Taft's telegram sent about
week ago to Prince Chun, the Chi
nese regent, with the purpose, 1t is
understood here, of tying the hands of
Grand Councillor Chang Chi Tung in
the matter of American claim for
equal participation in the Hankow-
SZechuen railroad loan of $27 500, 600,
appears doubtful The Chinese for
eign board Is unable to vouch for
Chang Chi Tung's actions and fears
that he will memorialize the throne
in favor of the original loan agree
ment, thereby forcing the prince re-
gent to decide between himself and
the risk of losing American friend
ship.
Following their unacceptable offer
to America during the meetings of
the international bankers in London,
when the European bankers offered to
the American representatives a quar-
ter of the Hupeh section of the loan,
the British, German and French bank
ers here are
Using the American Refusal
for the purpose of putting the re-
sponsibility for the failure of a four
sided agreement on America, and with
this object in view are adroitly press
ing China through the German banks
The tripartite banks are taking full
benefit of the influence that the Ger
mans acquired over Chang Chi Tung
by undermining the British and
French bankers last March, when
China accepted German loan of s15,-
900. 900 for the Yangtse section of the
Canton-Hankow railway, and are using
1t for the purpose of applying pres
sure to Chinas structural weakness.
In view of this the result will be
either the rejection of Americas claim
or the dismissal of Chang Chi Tung.
Henry p. Fletcher, American charge
d'affaires at Peking, has warned Sir
John N. Jordan, the British minister
at Peking, and also the British bank
that the American government will
understand a continuation of pressure
on Chang Chi Tung to mean that it Is
sanctioned by Great Britain.
