WOULD CLOSE NORTH SEA,
English Newspapers Urge Action by
the British Admiralty.

LONDON, October 31.-The newspa-
pers continue to urge upon the adj
miralty the desirability of the entire
closing of the North sea in order to
prevent the alleged action of the Ger
mans in sending out mine layers in tho
guise of peaceful. neutral trading YES
sells. In this connection the Times says:
I'VE refer to the disQuieting discovery
of mines on the main route between
Liverpool and America. There is an
increasing conviction that this danger
will continue to grow and that the only
remedy is the closing of the North sea
to neutral maritime traffic.
1.-The flags of neutrals have been per-
sistently abused and we can take no
risks with the fortunes of the empire
and the race at stake

WILL NOT SEEK CHECK
ON LOANS TO EUROPE
Administration Attitude Revealed.
Belligerents Expected to Turn
to U. S. Money Marts.

Although officials insist that President
Wilson has not changed his view. an
nounced at the beginning Of the Euro
pean war. that the lending Of money to
belligerents would be Inconsistent with
the true spirit Of American neutrality"
the Washington administration will not
attempt to intcrpose its influence
against such transactions on the part
of American bankers.
This was learned yesterday after II be-
came known that German f1nanciers
were contemplating the Establishment
of a credit loan in this country similar
to the S10.Oo0.000 credit fund nego-
tiated by the National City Bank Of New
York and other bankers for the French
government.
May Lead to Big Purchases.
The decision may lead to the purchase
In the United States of about $50, 0oo. 900
worth Of supplies by Russia and an
equal II not greater amount by Ger
many.
The President realizes, 1t was said
enat this government has no Legal
right to oppose international loans OF
any character. nor Is there any obliga
ton OF international law forbiddine
them.
During the Russo-Japanese war, loans
were hoated for Japan in the United
states through public bond issues The
president is understood. however, to
be opposed to that form of loan as
liable to stir up ill-feeling and preju.
diceS.
Will Not Export Gold.
Under what is known as credit loans
there is no intention, it is understood
to export any gold from the United
States. Large funds will be estab-
lished by the belligerent countries with
their financial agents here, who will
pay the bills of the European nations
to American dealers in munitions OF
war and supplies. The bankers will be
given short-time notes by the bellig-
erent governments with 4 much better
rate of interest, it is said, than ordi-
narily could be obtained. In return for
these considerations. European govern
ments will agree to spend large sums
of money in the United States for sup
plies.
