SOLD AT A PREMIUM.
Panama Bonds Bring an Average
Price of fO2.5O.

Washington, June 19.-AnnoUnce-
ment will be made late today of the
investors who bid successfully for the
new per cent $50,000,000 Panama
loan.
AS the tabulating has progressed it
has become more apparent that most
of the issue will go to individuals,
trustees of estates, schools and public
Treasury officials felt they had been
indicated in their prediction that
there was a. public demand for a gov
eminent guarantee for an investment.
Although the treasury will realize
about $4,000. 600 from the sale, that
will reimburse the cash drawer for
only about a third of what has been
advanced for the building of the Pan
anna canal. The proceeds of this loan,
however, will strengthen the working
balance to probably $90,0O0,0O0 and
no immediate issue of more bonds
seems probable. There are still $780,
900, 900 OF the same sort of bonds
available for issue according to law.
The government will deliver the bonds
at the direction of the buyers. AS the
bonds are dated June LIST the coupon
form will be delivered with the first
interest coupon clipped off and treas
ury check for the proper amount Of
interest will be mailed to the holders
Some lively trading in the bonds is
expected on the New York curb dur
ing the coming week. One estimate is
that $s,OOO,OOO of the securities were
sold during the last month, for de-
livery when issued, some at prices
higher than 103-
With the addition Of this S5O,00O,-
600 issue the bonded Indebtedness of
the United States is increased to
$963.OO0.0O0 of that, $4,000, 600
draws interest at two per cent;
S114,OOO.0OO at per cent and $11S,-
100000 at per cent. Most of those
bonds with the exception of this new
est issue are held by national banks
and are used as the basis of note cir
culatiOn. Banks may use the new
bonds as security for public deposits.
There is a limited demand for them
for that purpose. The average price
of S1O2.5O bid is taken to indicate that
the credit of the United States IS
higher than that of England. Ger
many or France, where government Sc
curities are selling at a discount. IN
the thousands of bids received many
irregular ones could not be considered
One man in Lewisburg. Pa, bid for
the whole issue and enclosed his note.
Treasury officials think they surreD-
dered the issue with safeguards which
made "shoestring' bids impossible.
The next move in sight in the gov
ernment's finances will be the refund
ing Of the Spanish war loan of which
100000 Is still outstanding. 1t is
due now and payable until 1918. It
probably will be refunded by another
issue Of Panama bonds. but undoubt-
eddy not within another year.

It was the intention Of the band to at
