Commissioners and Bankers Think Billion Too Much
 to Be Handled.
MORGAN ANNOYED
 AT PUBLICITY
Standard Oil Offices Admit Financier Called Upon Younger Rockefeller, But Latter Not Invited at This
 Time to Participate in Loan.

New York, Sept. 16.-Definite news began to circulate in financial circles today, that the billion dollar loan which the Anglo-French commission has come to negotiate for the allies is too big proposition for the coun- try to handle at this time.
 Half a billion dollars is the sum financiers now figure can be allotted, if the loan goes through. But as tn elements of the American game of poker are entering largely into the negotiations, the opinion was ex- pressed tonight that on showdown, a slum of $75O,0O0,000 might be ac- ceptable to both sides.
 No expression of opinion could be obtained from the members of the commission as to whether $500, 100000 would be acceptable, but several American bankers who are in touch with the situation intimated bflief that the commissioners would will ingly accept this amount, with the understanding that it would be a straight loan, and that there should be no conditions as to the uses to which the money would be put.
 Under this arrangement, there would be no security offered for the loan other than the credit of France and England, and there would be no differentiation as to the uses of the fund between foodstuffs purchases and munitions of war. It is the opin- ion of American bankers that the loan of $5OO.OOO,O0O could easily be floated and that if the war lasted a year longer there would be better prospects then for second loan of the same amount. : s.
 A meeting of the commission was held at the Biltmore hotel $tonight, at which it is understood the matter of admitting [. the German<American bankers to participation in the loan was discussed by the members.
 E. Deep interest in the loan situation today centered in the exclusive an- nouncement by the International News Service that J. P. Morgan had called on Rockefeller to obtain his assistance in floating the loan. It was learned that Mir. Morgan was greatly annoyed over the publication o1 his visit to MT. Rockefeller. No statemsnt could be secured today from the Morgan offices regarding the results of the visit.
 At the offices of the Standard Oll company, the call was admitted ana it was there authoritatively stated that MT. Morgan visited MT. Rocke- feller for the purpose of acquaintlng him with the situation and the pro gress of the negotiations for the flo tation of the loan. MT. Morgan dld not invite Mir. Rockefeller at this time to participate in the loah, 1t was ascertained. and no proposition having bene submitted to the latter, he was not called upon to indicate at this time whether he will or will not participate.

{ CARRANZA IS PLEASED.
Is Told Conference May Accept His
 Invitation for Meeting.

Vera Cruz, Sept. 16.-When General Carranza was told by correspondent that the pan-American conference probably would accept his invitation to conference near the border, on the question of recognizing his gov- ernment, he was cordiality itself. His handshake was hearty and he beamed with satisfaction. w
 {, Senor Ugarte, his private secretary, had taken the correspondent to the first chief and it broke up a confer ence he was holding with group of generals.
 General Carranza started to make an appropriate little speech of satis- faction, but reconsidered and confin- ed himself to this expression:
 q must beg to be excused from any comment on your most interest ing message until the pan-Ameriean conferees have formally cOmmunicat- cd to me their intentions.
 "It would hardly be proper for me to say anything until their decision shall have reached me officially" Carranza's private secretary, after brief conference with the first chief. volunteered the prediction that the receipt of the pan-American confer epce's acceptance would in all likeli- hoood mark the beginning of the end of the Mexican complications. The secretary stated that some border town. probably near Laredo, would | be selected as the site of the propes-s ed conference.

England and France Follow
 Lead Taken by American Government.
CONSULS ADVISED
 FOLLOW JUDGMENT
Are Instructed to Confer With Ameri- can Representatives and Exercise Discretion as to Ordering Out
 Their Nationals.

Washington, Sept. 16.-Great Brit ain and France have followed the lead of the United States and have taken steps to get their subjects out of the northern part of Mexico.
 The gravity of the situation is ad- mitted. Fear is entertained that American, British and French citizens will come to harm and that their vast property holdings will be de- spoiled, in tn disturbances which are expected to atten dthe fighting between the Villa and Carranza forces.
 Great Britain and France have in-- structed their consuls and trade agents to advise with American off cials in Mexico. and to use their dis erection about warning British sub jects to leave, and about the advisa- bility of taking their own departure.
 It was estimated by officials of the state department today that about
 1000 American citizens are affect ed by the order to leave the country It was also suggested that if these citizens should obey the order from the state department, property worth at East $25,000,00O would be ieft to
 the mercy of bandits and brigands. The state department furnishes no
 plan by which this property may be
 protected. All that can be done, off cials say, is that citizens may make
 an inventory of their property and file it with the American consul or vice consul These inventories will be valuable only in case an agree
 ment should be forced on Mexico in the final settlement, to pay claims for damages.
 Secretary of State Lansing will 1 leave here tomorrow afternoon to
 meet the pan-American delegates at | New York on Saturday. The main purpose of this meeting is to decide I whether Carranza shall be recognized
 as the sole power in control in Mexi- CO., or whether the fate of the repub- | lie can be determined in any other way.
 It seems to be settled that. no mat ter what plan shall be agreed upon, there must be eventually an interna- | tiOnal commission to pass upon the debts of Mexico to American citizens, 8nd to those of all other countries. [.lhe question will also arise as to how any new government can be ] financed, pending an agreement on the amount of indemnity, and the
 manner in which those indemnities
 can be secured by the customs re- ceipts of Mexico.

RUSSIANS HOLD /. STRONG CHECK
 AGAINST ENEMY
Strong Offensive in South Feature of Gigantic Series
 of Battles.

London, Sept. 16.-A gigantic series of battles, of which the most intense are being fought in the north, is pro- ceeding along the entire eastern front.
 The Germans are meeting every where with most stubborn resistance and in the south are being kept busy defending themselves against contin- ual attacks.
 Despite the increasing show of strength by the Russians, however, slow, but steady, gains are claimed by Berlin for von Hindenberg in the Bal tic provinces, while in the southern field von Mackenzen has occupied Vinsk, an important strategic point thirty miles east of the Wilma railroad, on which he is advancing.
 Vinsk fell after the Germans had broken the front of the Russian army which attempted to make stand in the marshes. The victory has given Mackenzen control of all the territory between the Kasiolva and Triket. riv- CTS.
 With the army to the south battlin@ r way toward the objective rail road, von Hindenberg is throwing great masses of men in battering-ram formation against the Russian de- lenses before him, and further along the Dvina, in the Jacobstadt region.
 He is making steady progress to- ward the latter point, according to a Berlin official statement Near Liv- o,hof tho Ruccianc havp hnpn driven to the eastern branch of the river.
 Heavy losses have been inflicted upon the Russians, who are directing continual attacks against the Anstro- Germans at Tolhymia, in the Galicia re zion, according to official informa- tion from Vienna. Three separate in stances are given where the Russians were thrown back with considerable slaughter, but the czar's troops re
