There is little chance, II was learned
here today from bankers, OF Germany ex-
pecting to obtain any money in the United
states II the proposed war loan OF $3.50,
100000 is placed.
The Kaiser, they assert, must look to
the bankers and hnanciers OF his own
nation, for there Is virtual bankers
boycott here against loanlng money to
Germany. He is said to have teen
warned Of this before the war began, but
disregarded the warning A banker who
has doue much international business
said every money market in the world is
closed to Germany. and 1t was for that
reason the Emperor determined to make
his dash on Paris that he might collect
an enormous war indemnity.
j. ?. Morgan g. Co. today engaged
100000 In gold for shipment to Canada
The same firm will make further ship
ments on Wednesday, but the exact
