S e IL g $24,00o,OOO
2O-Yr. 8P. C.. Bonds
First Time South American
Nation Has Come to This
Market for Financing; Ar
gentina and Brazil Next

Inc hrst Chilean government financ-
ing ever arranged in the American mar
ket has been completed by q banking
group headed by J. P. Morgan & Co.
and Kuhn, Loeb & Co, involving the
public offering tomorrow of $24,000,000
of twenty year per cent bonds. As
sociated with these firms in the under
writing are the National City Company,
the Guaranty Company of New York,
Harris, Forbes g. Co. and the First Ma
tional Bank of Boston, all members OF
the so-called South American banking
group.
While all of the details of the fnanc
ing will not be made public until TO"
day, the Chilean loan has number OF
attractive features, including sinking
fund provision, and the issue will be
offered to the investment public at a
price slightly under par, making the
yield .-lfle over per cent.
More than usual significance attaches
to the Chilean operation, in view OF the
fact that heretofore the Chilesn govern
ment has gone to the London market
to raise funds. In the present instance
the Chilean Congress gave an authori-
zation for the loan In sterling denoml-
nation on the possi bility th@ the Y
ernment might be able this time to go

however, made it necessary to establsn
precedent by coming to the United
States.
Tha bankers handling the loan said
yesterday that practically all of the
proceeds would be exNended IN TINS
country. mainly for the purchase OF
railway equipment and materials Tor
use on the Chilean railways.
With the completion Of this financing
operation, the first South American
transaction in several years, the banks
will take up for consideration the mat
ter Of loans for Argentina and braMl

loans to these countries have already
