MATE ON CONFLICT LASTING
EIGHTEEN MONTHS.

Birmingham, Ala, Oct. 31.-If the
European war is maintained with its
present violence for eighteen months
the loss of life will be 100000 and
the property loss $4,000, 100000. E.
II. Gary, president of the American
Steel and Iron Institute, said in ad-
dressing the annual meeting of that
organization.
"Paradoxical as 1t may SEEM" ad-
ded Mr.. Gary" the nation which is sue.
cessful in this war will surely lose,
The struggle for commercial nuprem.
acy was the underlying cause Of the
war, and many believe IL representa-.

ly had met in friendly spirit to settle
the financial interests involved al
trouble could have been averted.
Pleads for Preserving Boundaries.
Undoubtedly it would be to the hes
interests of all the nations engaged In
the present war and to the world a
large If the integrity and geographical
lines Of each of those nations could b,
substantially preserved"
The speaker asserted his belief il
the efficiency of an agreement between
all the countries for arbitration of al
international disputes.
!. Mr.. Gary admitted the present dc
pressed state of the steel trade, bu
was optimistic of the future.
Without particularizing it woul
seem safe to predict that in many in

Washington, Oct. 3O.-Credit loans
| by American banks to belligerent |
countries are viewed as private trans
actions by the Washington government,
and administration officials will not
interpose their influence against such
| transactions.
This was learned on the highest au-
thority after it became known that
p, German financiers were contemplating
establishment of a credit loan in this
country similar to the $10,OOO,O00 cred
it fund negotiated by the National City
Bank of New York and other bankers
for France.
The decision of the administration,
it was said, may lead to the purchase
in the United States of $50, 100000
worth of supplies by Russia and an
equal amount by Germany. Details OF
the expected transactions are lacking
here
High administration officials insist
!,
the view he announced at the outbreak
Of the war: that the loaning of money
to belligerents would be Inconsistent
with the true spirit of American neL-
trality.". A discussion was drawn by
officials, however, between the loans
referred to at that time-such as bond
issues offered for public sale-and
credit transactions intended as Il
checking account against the purchase
by belligerents of foodstuffs and sup
plies from American firms.
The President realizes that this gov
eminent has no legal right to oppose
I loans of any character, nor is there any
obligation of international law forbid
ding them. During the Russo-Japanese
war loans were floated for Japan in
the United States through public bond
issues. The President is understood
= however, to regard that form of loan
as liable to stir up ill-feeling and pre-
, JUDGES.
from discussing loans, as the position
of the government is an embarrassing
one. When J. p Morgan G. Co. asked
the opinion of the State Department
two months ago as to whether the ad
y ministration would approve of a loan
! to France, the Washington government
/ expressed itself against it. Bankers
3 however, are not obliged to ask the ad
u ministration, and they are as much al
liberty to engage in credit loans as arc
" American ammunition firms to senG
munitions of war to the belligerent
{ armies. The American government
= has no power under law to prevent
II commerce in contraband. The burden
rests on the belligerents affected, who
i can seize contraband, including car
a goes of gold, if destined to belligeren
ports.
u Under what is known as credit loans
10 there is no intention, it is understood
10 to export any gold from the Unite'
III States. Large funds will be establish
~ ed by the belligerent countries wit
financial agents here, who will pay tn
. bills of the European nations to Amer
u lean dealers in munitions of war an
~ supplies. The bankers will be give
- short-time notes by the belligerer
. governments, with much better rat
. of interest, it is said, than ordinaril
could be obtained. In return Europea
governments will agree to spend larg
sums of money in the United State
for supplies.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 91.-Connie

1t has been generally conceded in
