Germany Plans to Use Neutral
stocks TO Keep Up Credit.

BERLIN, via London. March l7.-Con-
cerning the plans of the Government to
make use of neutral securities held in
Germany the Tdgebldtt says:
~ special Government census deter
mined that considerable sums in neutral
securities were in German hands. 1t Is
understood that the Government plans to
make use of these to maintain foreign
credits by borrowing them from their
owners for a term OF three years for a
fixed payment. The owners OF the loan
securities will be permitted to sell freely.
but they must do SO through the Govern
ment. The latter will use the borrowed
securities in the foreign markets as a
basis for Government credits for the pur-
pose Of raising German exchange.
should the owners OF such securities
desire to sell the Government will carry
out the transaction on a foreign market
and turn the profits over to the owner.
The compulsory loan OF such securities Is
not contemplated at present but may fol-
low later. England accomplished the
same result by levying heavier taxes
upon the holders of foreign securities"

Responsible circles here withhold any

operations on the east front in the i'm
mediate future. Much would depend
they say. on what the old Russian re-
gime will do. Some are inclined TO be-
lieve that the Emperor will accept the
new state OF affairs. while others eN-
press the opinion that the deposed fac
tons will move against their Libcral
adversaries. and in so doing cause n
civil war the results OF which might be

what effect the news Of the revoluti ion
will have on the Russian troops on the

they will get scaut sympathy from the

would readily support the old Govern
