MEXICAN RAILWAY MAY PAY
Bankers Hopeful Now That
Loan Has Reen Made.

Announcement that the Mexican gov
eminent had obtained a loan of 5ooic 900
pesos. equivalent to a little more than
Slo"p'"O in American money at the pres
ent rate Of exchange, led TO reports in
wall Street late yesterday that the sl5O0,-
"" interest due in April on the bonds OF
the National Railways OF Mexico would
be paid in cash. The bankers who have
been working out plan for meeting the
April maturity were hopeful that this
would be the case particularly in view OF
the statement that Mexico will probably
resume the payment Of interest on its
foreign debt.
To meet its January interest the Ma
uonal Railways. because OF lack Of the
necessary funds. was forced 10 issue three
year per cent notes in lieu OF the cash
default, amounting to approximately 81
