The loan of 5O,OOO, 900 will be used
in furthering currency reforms and
other interests Of the Chinese empire.
The loan was first projected as an
American enterprise purely and was
originally sought by the Chinese for
political purposes. An imperial edict
issued Oct. 20 last, authorized the
load from a group Of American finan-
ciers who were to take bond issue
at 95 to cover the loan. The bonds
were to mature in from forty to forty
five years from issuance and to bear
8 per cent interest.
Later suggestion was made to al
low European capital to take part in
the loan, and after negotiations of
several months, an agreement was
reached providing that four bankiys
companies of the United States, Eng
land, Germany and France should par
ticipate equally in the loan and that
the financial adviser to the govern
ment with regard to the use Of the
loan should come from neutral Euro
pean state.
The banking houses concerned are
the Morgan, the Hongkong and
Shanghai Banking company, the Bank
of India-China and the Deutsche East
Asiatic bank.
