Paris, Sept. 19.-It is reported in
financial circles that American finan-
ciers are responsible for the expected
satisfactory conclusion today of the
FrancoGerman negotiations in regard
TO Morocco.
The story goes that Germany made
50O,000,000 in the stock market over
the scare caused by the appearance of
the German gunboat at Agadir This
was all lost in the recent panic, which
was caused by the concerted action OF
French financial institutions in with
drawing gold from Germany.
Germans Need 30o,ooo,ooo Marks.
The German government is obliged
to pay of next Monday 300,000,000
marks, principally in per cent.
treasury notes and Germany COM
mercial notes, which are outstanding
In France and are due the same day.
The leading German banks foresaw
their inability to pay these demands,
and their representatives approached
Baron Rothschild of Frankfort on the
subject.
Baron Rothschild came to Paris to
confer with leading financial mag.
mates in regard to the crisis. The
conference lasted all day yesterday.
Last night the American banking rep
resentative came forward and agreed
to share in loan on condition that
Germany should agree to give a reply
satisfactory to France on the Morocco
question at o'clock this evening.
There is great optimism here over
the news that Germany is financially
hard pressed and is, therefore, unable
to engage in hostilities. The papers
here have not printed the story about
the action of the American representa-
tive, but it is in circulation in finan-
cial and other circles.
