MORE THAN HALF
BILLION ON HAND
Allied Loan Already Subscribed
FOr-WiII be Paid in
InStaIImentS.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2. - Bankers
close to J. p. Morgan & Co. declared
today that the syndicate underwriting
the $500. 100000 war loan to the al
lies has already received sufficient sub
scriptions to cover the entire amount
All of these pledges. however. have
not yet been recorded upon the sub
scription books
1t is explained that the underwrit-
ers want TO gave the general public a
chance TO buy in order to ascertain
through that medium. the attitude Of
the small investor towards the loan.
From an authoritative source II is
learned that Charles NJ. Schwab and
Gen. Dupont of the famous powder
making family, have guaranteed to
take over sos, 900, 900 worth OF the
bonds
1t was admitted that the refusal of
Kuhn Loeb < Co. TO participate in
the loan might have some effect but
those interested in floating the credit
declare that this effect has been dis
counted by the flood Of subscriptions
which have been received by J. 2.
Morgan & Co.
So far the underwriters syndicate
has not taken definite form and the
subscription books have not been
formally opened TO the public, but the
preliminary work has progressed so
fast and so satisfactorily that an
nouncenents on these points are now
expected very soon.
Curb market brokers have already
begun TO deal in the war bonds but
all contracts are conditional
1t is announced that the payment
on subscriptions will be in three in
stallments the first to be % per cent
on Oct. Is, the second. % per cent
