BANKERS GIVE ULTIIATUM
Germany Must Pay Preparations and Stop
Initiating Money If 1t Wants Loan.

PARIS. May 27.-The committee of
international bankers in session here this
evening served notice on Germany that
further consideration of a billion dollar
loan to the German government was
virtually out of the question until Ger
many accepted in full the conditions of
the ultimatum of the reparations COM
mission (Which expires May 81 and also
ave adequate guarantees hat the infia-
ton of Germany's currency would be
stopped Immediately. The committee
then decided to adjourn until May 81 to
await the decision of Germany.
Last night it was predicted in repara-
tions circles that a refusal by the Ger
mans TO adhere to the reparations com
missions ultimatum probably would re-
suit in an indefinite adjournment or the
breaking up of the bankers committee.
\ solution of the situation was said to be
bound up i'm the question whether Ger
many would end her wholesale printing
of paper marks and make drastic i'm
prOvements in her currency.

BRUSSELS, December PA decis- ion rendered by the lower courts of Belgium to the effect that former Elm peror William had no right to collect interest on British bonds in his pos session, was yesterday sustained by the court of appeal, which handed down it's decision.
 It appears, according to the evi- dence that the former ruler had cash ed in on some cupons attached to sev- eral British Bonds. It was for the re- covery of the money paid that suit was instituted in the lower courts.
 The text of the decision is that the exchange broker in this city who nego- tiated the transaction will have to re- fund to the British bank involved in the suit, the sum of several million francs, which had been paid on the coupons.
 Suit was instituted for recovery of the money when it became known that the bonds from which the cupons had been clipped belonged to the ex- Elm peror, the British bank protesting the payment.
