TRUST COMPANY
Will Finance
THE HONDURAS
BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, April ;

Dy W HSsSi1fie$ on April s-The state
department has announced the
terms of proposed new loan to the
government of Honduras, to be fin
tnced by the Whitney Central Trust
and Savings Bank of New Orleans,
instead of by the Morgan group in
New York. The department officials
claim that the Objectionable features
of the Morgan proposition have been
eliminated by the southern bankers
and they are again urging the senate
to act upon the Honduran loan con-
vention, which has been before the
foreign relations committee for more
than a year.
The offer of a s1O,O0O,0OO loan by.
the Morgan group recently was with.
drawn. The southern bankers, it is,
announced, have made a tender OF
a similar amount under a new and
radically different contract. They
propose to limit the first issuance Of
bonds to $6,000,000, and will require
of Honduras 100000 a year to meet
the service of the loan, as compared
with $4,000 a year under the FORM
er contract. The Official announce.
ment Of the new loan issued by
the state department says in part:
1.-THE southern bankers limit the
uses Of their loan exclusively to the
refunding of the Honduran foreign
debt, and discard the proposal of the
Morgan group to promote railroad
building and other internal improve
ments and to settle internal debts
and claims pending against the Hon.
duran government.
1t was these provisions extending
the uses of the loan beyond the set
Element of the foreign debt that
aroused criticism against the Morgan
contract, and the southern bankers
claim that in eliminating these feat
ures they have presented terms satis-
factory to Honduras and that accept
ance of the loan may be expected.
Their optimism as to its final &C
ceptance, however, is based simply
upon the approval given their CON-
tract by individual officials of the
government of Honduras who have
closely studied their offer. With the
general public in Honduras the south
ern bankers find themselves handi-
capped by a wild espread prejudice
toward loans in any form, and say
that this opposition has undoubtedly
been augmented by the failure Of
the senate to ratify the convention.
IF the senate ratifies the conven-
ton now and gives to the Whitney
contract the tacit approval which
such action implies, it will, it is de-
| clared, produce a wave of reaction
in Honduras, dissipating the bnad
prejudice and paving the way for q
san consideration of the Whitney con.
tract on its merits. The opposition
in Honduras to the loan convention
has been almost wholly due to its

FLEETS FOR
moving TROOPS
SbiDS are Available for Mexi'
can Emergency.
Can Be Spared

NEW YORK, April 3-Local steam
ship men were much interested today
in the possibility of their fleets being
commandered for service in transport
ing troops to Mexico. Both the Ward
and Morgan lines have been approach
ed by representatives of the war de-
partment, but as yet the Clyde and
Mallory lines owners of two of the
other big coastwise fleets, have heard
nothing definite. The probability is
that any ships used in addition to the
army's regular transports will be
drawn from the service of these four
lines, which will be able to lend the
government fifteen or twenty. good
sized boats without absolutely tying
up their own business.
The Morgan Line, which is also
known as the Southern Pacific com.
pany, has a fleet of twenty-three yes.
sells, including passenger and freight
boats; the Clyde line has twenty ships
ships, eleven passenger boats and
nine freighters; the Ward line has
eighteen ships, ten passenger boats
and eight freighters; and the Mallory
line has twelve ships, ten OF them
passenger boats. This makes total
Of seventy.three vessels, all of them
ocean going steamships of consider
able tonnage, capable of holding ap-
proximately a thousand men apiece,
for even the freighters could be fitted
up between decks with temporary
TERED hunks. The officers of the lines
however, say that most Of the boats
of the latter class, would probably be
used for transporting horses, artil-
lery and supplies.
Compares Would Not Lose
OF course it would cost the govern
ment pretty penny to order the
steamship companies to withdraw
their ships from service, but if the
order comes the companies will CON-
ply with it, without any objection.
AS a matter of fact although shippers
and wouldtbe travellers suffer by
such a state of affairs the companies
stand to make in the long run. The
government being a government has
to pay high for accommodations and
like most governments, 1t is sure to
pay. Anyway you look at it, the
steamship men can't lose, and if the
business should happen to fall off sud
denly they would be in the way of a
positive profit.
What is considered most likely to
happen by the steamship men-that
is, provided anything at all happens
is for the government to request the
loan of four or five vessels from each
fleet. That would mean that only the
ships that happened to be in port at
the time the order was' issued would
be called on. Indeed, the steamship
men say that the government would
be in difficulty if it wanted to use
all the ships in the coasting trade at
once on sudden notice. Fully half of
these ships are at sea, or else in the
Gulf, Caribbean, or West Indian ports,
and it will be from wo six weeks
before hey can get back to northern
waters.
