Baltimore, Hl* CHICAGO BANKS AGAINST LOAN r Continued from First Page] resented during the forenoon confer ence. "Chicago financial men are friendly to the loan and I believe that the bonds will be disposed of in as tonishingly short time," said Mr. La mont. The party left at 12:40 p. m. for New York. New York, Sept. 29. —Definite for mation of the big syndicate of bankers who will float the half-billion-dollar credit loan to Great Britain and France was begun to-day by J. P. Morgan & Co. and other financiers who have been associated with them In the ne gotiations here with the Anglo-French tinanclal commission. It Is proposed to make the syndicate the largest of its kind ever seen in this country and lo include In Its membership banks, trust companies and individuals from the Atlantic to the Pacific. In every large city or financial cen ter in the United States there is to be, inder the present plan, a group of bankers who will act as syndicate managers in their section of the coun try. In the South and West these groups will operate over somewhat en larged areas: in the Middle West, the N'orth Atlantic States and New Eng land, where the population is dense, the groups will, in some cases, confine their activities practically to the city in which the member banks are located and its immediate suburbs. Interest Is Great On behalf of J. P. Morgan & Co. it was said to-day that interest in the project was great and enthusiastic in practically every section 6f the United States. Official announcement of the details of the loan revealed but few depar tures from the plans previously out lined in unoftteial reports. Nothing is said about the exclusion of purchases of war munitions. The most surpris ing feature was the price at which the big issue is to be sold to the under writing syndicate—96. Previous re ports had ranged from 97% to 99. The bonds will be placed on the mar ket at 98 to the investor. The 2 per cent, difference in the prices to the syndicate and the investor will provide a profit to the syndicate and reimburse them for the expenses incidental to the loan's flotation. Because (he bonds will be sold four points under their par value. Great Britain and France will have placed to their credit here not $500,01)0,000, but $.(80,000.000. In other words, the two nations are paying $20,000,000 for Superb Baseball Summary; Games Past and Future SCORES OF YESTERDAY'S GAMES American League Washington, 3; Detroit. 0.

Plans to Be Formulated at Meeting in Chicago Chicago, 111., Sept. 29.—Details of the plan under which Chicago bank ers will be a&kod to co-operate in floating the SSOO 000,000 loan to Eng land and France, the largest foreign loan ever offered in the United States, were to be formulated to-day at a meeting presided over by Thomas W. Lamont. representing J. P. Morgan & Co.. of New York city. That the loan will not acquire defi nite form for several days was the opinion of Mr. Lamont. "It all depends on the speed with which the syndicate is made up," he was quoted as saying. Members of th-* Anglo-French com mission which arranged for the loan planned to return to New York this afternoon. England Feels That U. S. Gains in Transaction London, Sept. 29.—The definite an nouncement of the terms on which the Anglo-French loan is to be issued in the United States was about in line with the expectations of British finan ciers. Though the yield is a shade higher than had been looked for origi nally in some quarters, the general opinion is that heroic measures were necessary to remove the deadlock in the exchange transactions which had been allowed to continue for so long. It is felt here that advantage rests with America in obtaining a good rate of interest and facilities for its export trade. England also reaps benefit. Hatchet Fiend Suspect Exonerated by Jury Acquittal in September quarter ses sions yesterday of Joe Caleta, a foreigner, of the charge of assauting Mrs. William M. Gutshall, 669 South Front street, Steelton, dismissed all hope in the breasts of the borough authorities that the much-talked of, much written of "hatchet fiend" had been caught at last. <~"aleta was charged with having assaulted Mrs. Gutshall while the so-called "crime wave" was at its height and when he I was in the toils of the police they were sure they had the much-sought "fiend." And yesterday the jury re turned a verdict of "not. guilty." Absence of John Henry, an import ant witness necessitated t.he continu ance of the trial of Larry Sipe and Kathem Kryder, two Royalton boys, charged with robbing Rurgess Henry Granger. Sentences handed out yes terday included: Karolv Rallaski, felonious entry, six months; William Jackson, carrying concealed deadly weapons, four months; Harry C. Far ber, assault and battery, two months. RKT/IKF ON RUSH FRONT London.
