The Commissioner added that the only solution to the present abnormal foreign exchange situation was the establishment of a credit. The task confronting Great Britain, remarked the Commissioner, was decidedly new, as that nation never before had to seek an external loan, but he gave the assurance that now the government was about to seek an etxernal loan it would incur direct obligation on England as well as the other nationg interested. When asked if American bankers who may have German sympathies had been asked to participate in the loan, this commissioner said that he had not heard of any special effort 'being made along this line, but. on the other hand, he special class of bankers being' invited to participate. Persistent Reports of Pro-German Activity Against Loan.

During the past few days persistent reports have been received by the foreign commissioners that pro-German agents had instituted a countrywide campaign against the flotation of the proposed loan to the Allies. Some of these agents, the commission was informed, were known as men who had furthered the spread of the German propaganda during the presence in this country of Dr. Bernhard Dernburg. According to information which came to the Commissioners' attention, the German attack on the proposed loan was launched from the cover of American citizens of German parentage, nativity or sympathies, although in reality these citizens were not the prime movers in the agitation. The attack included not only the negative stand in refusing to participate which the agitators hope will be taken by banks with large lists of GermanAmerican depositors, it was reported, but embraced extreme measures against any banks with GermanAmerican depositors helping in any way to finance the loan.

This campaign, according to reports from sources regarded as reliable, contemplated heavy withdrawals, wholesale in extent, from banks participating in the loan, as an expression of the displeasure of pro-1 German depositors. Another method which was reported to be in favor with those opposing the flotation of the loan was the proposal to float a similar loan for Germany. The amount of the proposed German loan, the commission heard, was to be half a billion dollars.

Von Bernstorff Returns to German Summer Embassy at Cedarhurst. Berlin Says Mine. Washington, September 15-State Department officials, commenting today on the disclaimer of the Berlin Government the Canadian liner that, torpedoed, said that insufficient evidence had been received upon which to base representations to Germany at this time.

From the facts at hand. it was said, no opinion could be formed as to whether the Hesperian was torpedoed or struck a mine. Official reports have made no reference to statements of passengers on the liner that large pieces of metal were found on the decks of the vessel which might furnish evidence to determine whether the ship was the victim of a mine or a' torpedo. If it should be determined that the Hesperian struck a mine, officials say there would' be no means of fixing responsibility for placing the mine. Diplomatic negotiations in the Arabic case were in apparent lull today and Count von Bernstorff, the German Ambassador, had returned to the summer embassy at Cedarhurst, L.

to await word from his government regarding the evidence in possession of the United States concerning the sinking of the vessel. It probably will a week or ten days before there is response from Germany. Some officials believe examination of this evidence will cause the German Government to modify its views on the subject. Tension over the situation was apparently relaxed. No word has come from Ambassador Penfield at Vienna in regard to the case of Ambassador Dumba.

The fact that only one letter mentioned in the list of communications transmitted to the State Department by Ambassador Page at London as having beer found on Correspondent James F. J.

There may be bombs enough in the hold of the White Star steamship Lapland to wreck it, but without final determination of just what was contained in the bottle like "bombs" found aboard the Lapland late yesterday afternoon the vessel left New York today. There appears to be considerable disagreement between officials as to what the "bombs" are.

Inspector Egan, of the Police Bureau of Combustibles, announced today that they contained concentrated sulphuric acid, but the steamship authorities insisted later that they were fire extinguishers. Inspector Egan made his examination of them early today, and r'eported at once to the line and to his superiors. Superintendent Wright, of the pier, stated the bombs" were fire extinguishers, and early this aft ernoon the vessel sailed for Liverpool. The cargo of the vessel, as far as could be ascertained. by observation of the loading, consisted largely of munitions of war, automobiles, aeroplanes and trench diggers.

Reilly, EXPECT BIG BATTLE IN REGION OF VILNA; BOMB FIGHTS WEST Von Hindenburg's Cavalry Has Both Sides of Petrograd Railway. MANY RUSSIANS CAPTURED. London Claims Austrians Have Been Checked in Galicia--Artillery Fighting on West Front. London, September 15-While Field Marshal von Hindenourg's Cavalry is astride the Petrograd Railroad and the Germans have made large captures of prisoners and guns in Courland, the Rusisans are again countering these efforts not only checking the attempt of the Austrians to resume the offensive in Galicia, but by inflicting another reverse on the Austro-German forces in the same vicinity. Svientsiany, where the German cavalry cut the railroad, is halfway between Vilna and Dvinsk and about 400 miles from Petrograd.

The Russians assert that this raid by the Gerin line, of which their oppomans thetas formed a dangerous salient nents are likely to take advantoge. It is clear, whatever strategic move may be involved in this advance, that recent events indicate the near approach of the important engagement in the Vilna region which was predicted a fortnight ago by General Polivanoff, the Minister of War. Further along the line, the German armies operating on both banks of the Nieman have not yet formed junction and Russian rear guards are still withdrawing eastward. Russian military writers are warnthe people not to expect too great developments from the Galicam offensive movement.

School Board Members Point to City's Finances. Opinions of Brooklyn members of the Board of Education regarding the congestion in the schools and the possibilities for relief, were generally to the effect that the city's finances will not permit building expansion at this time. "This question of congestion seems to be growing worse instead of better," said Arthur S. Somers today. "I must say I don't know yet what we are going to do, to meet the terrible situation.

Certainly we will do something, but the only thing I can say at this time is that we will do the best we can. It seems utterly impossible to keep pace with the growing population." "The Board of Estimate, would like to have a school wherever one could be remarked John J. Keller, "but they cannot give us what they haven't got. Without the money to build new schools. I really do not know what can be done to relieve the present congestion." "Unless the Board of Estimate will make the proper appropriations, I do not see a chance for the erection of any more schools," said Louis Newman.

Brown of the legislative special city investigating committee to start an immediate probe of New York City's finances.

His determination, the Senator says, is the result of the city's plan to revive the personal tax and increase personalty valuation here by about 000,000,000, as well as Mayor Mitchel's renewed criticism of the State direct tax. Senator Lockwood charges that the Mayor's recent statement that this State tax of $14,000,000 the cause of the city's financial troubles this fall is a "hopeless, if not deliberate, confusion of plain facts." The Senator's statement urges that the "light be turned on without delay." "TURN ON LIGHT'-LOCKWOOD Senator Will Urge Immediate Probe of City's Finances. L. I R.

The influence of the Restoration, Directoire, and felt in Louis the new Phillipe hats, periods and the is military. note is still evidenced. The new shade of purple, introduced this season, is nearer to a deep amethyst than anything one could think of. A sailor of this shade, an adaptation from the French, was cut in at one side, giving it rather a fetching air. The brim of the hat was rolled on the left side, emphasizing the tendency to reintroduce the bandeau.

The hat was trimmed with ostrich feathers, which, by the way, will be worn by the woman means just as much this season as they were last. The military influence was noticed in a soldier. hat of the same deep amethyst. This was a Maison Lewis model. A little mushroom sailor, a Carolyn Reboux model, emphasized the new high-crowned effect with the narrow brim.

A distinctive hat was a copy of: a Suzanne Talbot. It was a large purple velvet hat with a high crown and a wreath of calla lilies around the crown. Old -fashioned silver tips combined with paradise made an effective adornment for a turban of maroon-brown velvet. Peppermint' green, predicted to be a very popular shade, this autumn and winter, was employed in velvet for a. large sailor.

Angora beaver combined with field-gray velvet was used for a smart little sport hat. Flying fox, one of the new furs, was used in exquisite combination with gold and silver lace. Old-fashioned Prince of Wales tips are, again popular, and the old -fashioned idea of trimming underneath the brim has been reintroduced. Chinchilla was used in a three-piece fur set of tam, scarf and muff. The muff looked very much like a football and the scarf was worn very high, covering the chin.

Commissioner Smith informed the Commission that he had been unable to come to terms with the United States Steel Products Company for the lease of the margina: street area between Twenty-eighth and Twentyninth streets, on the South Brooklyn waterfront, as the Steel Company considered 15 cents a square foot too high a rental.

Clifford Potter, the wealthy real estate broker, on Ocean avenue, Easthampton, L. the secret of a large gem theft became public yesterday. Agcording to the police of Easthampton, the theft was about September 1, when $50,000 committed, worth of jewelry is said to have been taken from Mr. Potter's home. Private detectives were employed by Mr.

Potter to run down the thieves, while the family decided to keep the matter quiet. That there has been no success on the part of the private detectives, was brought out by yesterday's announcement of the reward of $2,500, made by William F. Barthman, a jeweler, of 174 Broadway, Manhattan. Details concerning the robbery or even the kinds of jewels missing would not be given today by any member of the family, nor by the jeweler. It is said, however, that the jewels that were stolen were the property of Mrs.

Potter and her daughter and that among them was a valuable necklace. This gem theft is almost a repetition of the robbery which occurred recently at Southampton, at the home of Sherwood Aldrich, on June 21. In the latter case it was decided to keep the matter secret, but it came out when a reward was offered for the return of the jewels. MAXWELLS GIVE DANCE Entertain at Nassau Club for Their Two Sons.
