Billion Dollar Loan Without Collateral Is Sensation of Day By Associated Press New York, Sept. 14.—The report that the Anglo-French financial com mission contemplated borrowing a bil lion dollars here without collateral of any sort and solely on government notes of Great Britain and France overshadows all other topics in the financial section to-day. Heretofore the opinion has pre vailed that Great Britain and France would secure the proposed loan by American securities, dollar for dollar, cr by some other acceptable form of collateral. All calculations of Ameri can financiers prior to the commis sion's arrival here had been based on that assumption. The reported plan of the commission, providing for a straight loan without collateral, caused the biggest sensation of the vear in the New York financial district. It was the consensus of financial cpinion that the commission would find its task tremendously more diffi cult than would be the case were the proposed credit loan secured by col lateral of American bonds and stock as at first suggested.

BARRISBUR TEIJEGRAPH GERMMI OFFENSIVE MENACES RUSS LINE Railway Connections With Petro grad Are Reported to Be in Danger CAPITAL IS NOT ALARMED British Opinion Is That Courland Campaign Will Soon Be Checked By Associated Press London, Sept. 14, 12:07 p. m. —Field Marshal Von Hindenburg's offensive near Dvinsk, where the railroad lead ing from Vilna to Petrograd has been reached, again menaces the railway connections with the Russian capital. The comparative success in other sec tors which the Russians have gained in the last fortnight, however, causes the capital to regard the latest threat against it with no great alarm. British opinion is that the Courland campaign of the Germans is not only proving costly in men and supplies but Is likely to fall unless the Rus sian offensive on the other extreme of the long front can be stopped soon.
