LOAN 10O,000,000
TO GREAT BRITAIN
New York Bankers to Take
That Amount of Bonds
Money to Be Spent In
This Country.

New York. July 5.-Negotiations
were reported todav TO be in progress
between officials Of the British treas
ury and a group of New York bankers
headed by J. p. Morgan g. Co. and
others. for the fiotation in his n
of a 500, 900, 900 British war loan.
Reports disagreed as to the nature. OF
the proposed loan. In some sources it
was described as a part of the great
British war loan of $4,000. OO0. 900 re-
Gently authorized, while in other quar-
tiers it was said that the loan to be
having all interest rate of 5 per cent.
1t was understood that the Offering
would be increased possibly to $780,
600, 600 if the bonds were well received
by American investors. Bankers be-
lieve that the IA will mature in 10
years.
Intimations are said to have been re-
ceived here that the British treasury
will rule within a few days that war
bonds sold outside Of Great Britain
shall be free Of the British income tax.
Unless this were done. 1t was said.
there could be little hope that the issue
would be popular in America.
Proceeds of the loan, 1t is said. will
be left in America to be drawn against
by the British government in the pur-
chase of war munitions. foodstuffs and
other supplies in the United States.
1t was the belief here that Henry p.
Dawson. of j. P. Morgan & Co, who
sailed for London some time ago, Is
working out the details of the proposed
loan with British bankers.

ZEPPELINS WRECKED
BRITISH ARMS PLANT

New York, July "a description of
the bombardment of the northeast
coast of England by Zeppelins on the
night of June Is, details of which have
not been permitted by the British cen
sors to become public, was brought to
New York by passengers aboard the
steamship Lapland arriving today from
Liverpool.
According to accounts Of the air raid
given by the Lapland's passengers the
Zeppelins. which raided the northeast
coast Of England. were more success
full from a military standpoint than any
previous aerial warcraft which hav
flown over England. as they did CON"

The official reports. according to the
l@apland's passengers. cited that a ma
jority of the deaths caused by the ex-
took place In the munitions factory.
which also suffered grave material
damage.
The raid began at Grimsby. where il
was said the highly important and VAL
liable docks at birmingham narrowly
escaped bombs which were dropped by
the zeppeli1Hs. From Grimsby a course
was steered for Hull, but when Hull
was reached little attention apparently
vas paid to the city, which had suf-
fered heavily from the previous visit
of German aircraft. The pilot, who
evidently knew the country well. led
the Zeppelin squadron then to New
Castle.
Running with double shifts day anG
night, the munitions factory at New
Castle was well lighted and offered a
fair target to the aircraft. One Of the
big Zeppelins seemed to hover, almost
stationary, over the munitions works
and rained down upon the factory a
quantity Of explosive and incendiary
bombs.

His disappearance has revived ru-

alleged plan to launch a new revo-

be made in the next few days, select

sumed that he made good his escape.
Fear is expressed in Mexican circles
that before many hours the Villa gar
rison at Juarez may place itself under
the command of Orozco. 1t was re-
ported asst night that an armed force
was marching towards JuareZ from the
west, and among the rumors in cir
culation is one that Orozco has planned
10 move toward Juarez with this or
~saniZation. For some time past there
has been reason to believe that dis
affection in the Juarez garrison has
gained such Roadway that it would
not be difficult for any of the Mexican
recognized fractional leaders to take it
over. The escape of Orozco was ac-
complished in spite Of a guard of six
men--three soldiers and three agents
of the United States department OF
justice. The orders Of the guards Wers
explicit and warranted their taking
drastic action in case of an attempted
flight.
The house in which Orozco lived is
so constructed and located that guard
ing its occupants appears simple, but
10 ards away there is a growth OF
shrubbery that would make compara-
lively easy the disappearance of a per-
son after the intervening space had
been covered.
An examination of the house dis

were of the opinion that Orozco left
the building through this window,
crossed the intervening space in the
shadow of clouds hat intermittently
bbscured the moonlight. and gained the
~shrubbery. from which his progress
was uninterrupted.
1t is supposed that Orozco then
walked from the vicinity of the build
ing, and. if an attempt was made to
cross the boundary into Mexico. that
he took a waiting automobile several
blocks from the scene.
