Considerable Satisfaction in
London Over Wilson's
Stand on Affair.

London, March 20.-The announce
ment Of President Wilson that his ad-
ministration had declined to request
the American bankers Of the "six
power" group to continue their ne
gotiations in connection with the
$105, 100000 loan to China, came as
a complete surprise to the British gov
ernment Only yesterday Sir Edward
Grey. the British foreign secretary,
In a written reply to a question in
the house Of commons as to the posi-
ton Of affairs, said the terms of the
loan had the unanimous approval of
the six powers interested. This reply
was hardly in print when the news
came Of the decision Of the American
government.
There has been good deal of dis
satisfaction in London with the loan
negotiations. for exactly the same
reasons that President Wilson gives
for the withdrawal, of the support of
the United States. Those publicists
and papers which have been opposing
Great Britain's support. ,of the group
take considerable &tsisfacrion over the
American action, and. predict that
with the withdrawal Of the American
bankers the whole scheme will fal!
through. They point out that Japan
and Russia have no money to lend
and that Germany, at present, has
nothing to spare for China.

Albany, N. Y. March 2o.-The as

defeated the proposed amendment to
the habeas corpus law designed to
meet the case Of Harry X. Thaw. The
bill introduced at the request Of At
torney General Carmody provides
that q final order in habeas corpus
proceeding shall be conclusive evil
dence at any subsequent proceeding
involving the detention of the same
person; and that only new evidence as
to the petitioners sanity may be In
troduced.
The measure stirred up spirited
debate. Assemblyman Cuvillier, sup
porting 1t, said:
"It is a we'll known fact that Harry
Thaw has made the courts of this
state laughing stock. Thaw, with
his money, through this and that dis
tinguished attorney. has been applying
to the courts year and year out to get
relief. He is going to use the courts
all he can-tire them out IL possible.
1t now becomes a case of states
money against Thaw's money"
Opposition to the bill was based
generally on the ground that it was
unconstitutional.
