COMING TO PLAN FOR LOAN.
Deputation of London Enanciers Re-
uorted Probably to Visit New York.

LONDON, August 90, 1915 PIN
That deputation of financial men rep
resenting the treasury and London
banks will go to New York to arrange
the details of American credit is con-
sidered to be quite probable today in
city circles This committee, it is said,
will consist of three members. all con-
nected with clearing house banks. Two
of them doubtless will be Sir Edward
Holden and Sir Felix Schuster. The
name of Sir George Paish has been
strongly urged. but it is now decided
that he is not to go.
The membership of the comtsittee
will be confined to men actually en-
gagged in banking. Its personnel and
the time of its visit to the United
States may be withheld until the
financiers actually arrive in New York.

The law provided that two months

is that in several cases the bridegroom
has been killed on the battlefield by the

CHICAGO, August 90. Although
wheat showed some tendency to de-
cline today. the depression soon wore
off. Misgivings in regard to possible
complications from the sinking of the
Arabic led to good deal of selling
at the start, and so, tco, did bearish
crop reports from the spring crop belt.
Incessant rains. however, in the winter
wheat states brought about a subse-
quent upturn in prices. especially for
the September delivery.
