70 FIoat New War Loan.

Berlin, via London, Oct. IA bill
for q new war credit of ,000,000,O00
marks will shortly be submitted to the
reichstag. The bill has only precau-
tionary character, but is deemed neces-
sary because the margin between the
credit granted June. 1915, totaling o.
900, ,00O.o marks, and the 47,000,000,oo0
marks raised by the five war loans
has become rather small. The new
war loan Is not expected &c be floated
before next spring.
Subscriptions from neutral countries
to the fifth German war loan, says the
Overseas News Agency, surpassed
those received for the fourth issue. The
German newspapers comment with
satisfaction on this fact which they
say proves the confidence OF neutral
countries In German power and eni-
ciency. A dispatch from Warsaw says
that the Eastern Bank received sub
scriptions amounting to l,0u0,SVs
marks.
