This offer, it is understood, will be merely a repetition of the proposed $50,000,000 loan concerning which negotiations were entered into last September. The character of the announcement at first due to erronerous interpreta tion, was that a much larger loan was contemplated for the purpose of consolidating Argentina's public debt, which amounted on July 31, last, to 640,000,000 paper pesis requiring a loan of approximately $200,000,000 at the present rate of exchange. It was stated in the official announcement that the American-bankers had in addition to the offer forthcoming next month, "also expressed the desire to place a loan which would enable the Argentine government to realize a plan to consolidate the public debt." On account of the amount involved for this purpose bankers here do not believe that such a loan is in immediate contemplation. New York, Nov. 27.?Members of banking firms which have b'een prominent in previous South American financing tonight denied knowledge of a proposed $50,000,000 loan to the Argentine government as reported in a dispatch from Buenos Aires. They added, however, that one of the smaller banking groups here might be seeking business in Argentina and that it was possible that the activities of such a group would not be known generally in financial circles.

ROOT'S PROGRAM GAINS POPULARITY Washington, Nov. 27.?The full . significance of the American "four points" proposed by Elihu Root and adopted by the ,arms conference to guide its discussions relaj'->g to China, is coming to be better \ Herstood as the Far Eastern negotiations pass through the "accepted-in-principle" stage and approach decisions on specific subjects. At first regarded as largely a reiteration of general principles whieh had long been sanctioned on paper by all the powers, the "four points" now have, in fact, become the foundation on whieh China's friends in the conference hope to erect a system of reforms that will in many respects reverse completely the practices of the nnst nnH nwcont In this far reaching development the American delegation has taken the leadership by making known in a decisive manner that it regards the Root resolution as something vastly more than a few finely turned diplomatic phrases. The American position is that in accepting the "four points," the participating nations have bound themselves solemnly to apply In a concrete way the long professed principles of fair dealing toward China and to proceed without subterfuge to give China as great a degree of indeper lence as conditions will warrant. Powerful support from outside the American delegation has strengthened that position and in the present discussion of tariff autonomy, extraterritorial and postal rights the trend of the negotiations never has been permitted to stray far from the Root platform. In every case proposed solutions have been scrutinized in the light of appropriate sections of the "four points" with the result that the four American principles have become, in fact, as well as in name the dominating element of the discussions. How this method of procedure will affect such troublesome problems as Shantung, Manchuria and the "21 demands" if they come before the conference is yet to be demonstrated. It isr-pointed out Root,/principle* were cast in broad terms in their reference to Chinese integrity, the open door and special privileges, but no one who can speak authoritatively has been willing to volunteer as anterpretation of these references as they apply to specific questions not yet before the conference. With the questions of extraterritorial and postal rights to be disposed of tomorrow through specific declarations now in preparation by subcommittees, there was an expectation in some quarters tonight that the subject of leases, including those held by Japan in Shantung and Manchuria, might be brought up for discussion in the very near future. China's deletrutos hnve Herlnrerl t.hpir intention tr? bring the Shantung and Manchurian problems to the attention of the conference as soon as occasion offered and Japan has indicated repeatedly that she does not regard these subjects as within the province of the negotiations. The attitude of the other nations has not been defined, but it is expected that some feature of the "fou? points" will be brought forwai'd to guide in a decision. The Farmer Versus The Railroads The average South Carolina farmer gets up early at the alarm of the Connecticut clock, buttons his Chicago suspenders to Detroit overalls, puts on a pair of Montana cowhide shoes, made in Ohio, washes in a Pittsburg tin basin, using Cincinnati soap, and dries on a Georgia cotton towel made in New Hampshire, sits down to u Grand Rapids table, eats biscuits made with Minneapolis flour, Kansas City bacon and Indiana grits fried in Omaha lard cooked in a St. Louis stove, Irish potatoes grown in Michigan and canned fruit put up*in California seasoned with Rhodo Island spices. Clops on his old wool hat made in Philadelphia, puts New York harness on his Misouri mule, feed on Iowa corn nnd plows his farm covered by a Massachusetts mortgage with an Indiana plow. At night he crawls under a New Jersey blanket and is kept awake by a South Carolina dogt the only home product on the place. And everything except the dog and the mortgage are brought to him by the railroads.?Exchange.
