FOR LARGE CUBAN LOAN
GOMEZ ASKS ESTIM4TES.
$40, 800, 900 for Waterzcorks and
Sezcers- Official Heads
an Peril.

Havana July 23.-The general impression that
the government has decided TO issue loan to cover
the payment of contracts for the Cienfuegos water
works and the Havana sewer system received
confirmation to-day, when President Gomez pri-
vatelv issued a circular small number OF
banks inviting them to submit estimates on
loan OF s165oN0oO at per cent, the first issue TO
be $4,000 and thereafter on the call or the gov
ernment during five years. not to exceed S,oe0"o
annually Amortization would begin at the expira-
rio, Of ten wears the loan TO be secured by inter-
nal taxes.
Bankers generally consider the terms unaccept-
able because they do not agree with the condltlons
prescribed by Governor Magoon's decree authoriz-
ing the loan. and because the security on the in
teral taxation apparently is subject TO the condl-
tions under which the first loan OF S5O0.O was
placed by Speyer Co. and no other security Is
visible The bankers therefore infer that Speyer q
Co is the only able 10 negotiate the pro-
posed additional loan. President Gomez. 1t Is well
known is opposed making any loan, and hence
the inancie-s suggest that he has dictated unac-
Ceptahe conditions for the purpose or eVadins the
responsibility OF committing the country to new
Indebtedness
A committee Of Zayastas to-day visited Presi-
dent Gomez for the purpose Of submitting a pro-
test against his alleged unfair distribution OF po-
liticaI patronage On leaving the palace the COM
nttee said the negotiations had been satisfactory
the President agreeing that Senior Zayas should
be chief OF the United Liberals on the completion
of the fusion of the factions.
Runlors Of impending changes in the Cabinet
and in other high Offices persist. They include the
report that Carlos Garcia and his brother, Justo,
will cease 10 be, respectively. minister al WASH
ington and Secretary of State. and that Major
General Monteagudo. commander Of the rural
guard. will become Secretary Of Government re-
placing Nicolas Alherdi. who will become Secre-
tary Of Sanitation. General Machado. now inspector
general. becoming commander Of the rural guard
These changes may be announced tomorrow when
President Gomez returns 10 Cayo Crsti. his sum-
home.
President Gomez has appointed Aonzo Cas-
tanedo Director Of the Lottery which is considered
a defiance OF Norua DelEado. chief of the negro
party who, after thrice receiving the appointment
and thrice resigninE II, on the ground that unTe-
stricted powers denied him, departed last
night for his home. saying he was disguised with
the treatment the government had accorded him.
