ABOUT A LOAN.
CHRISTCHURCH, October 21. A paragraph in the Lyttelton Times says: — A cabla message was published by us on Saturday stating that £1,000,000 worth of New Zealand bills of one year's currency had begun to be placed on the London market on a basis of about 3 J per cent. We printed the message as it came, but expressed the belief that a mistake had been made in transmission. We referred the matter to the Prime' Minister, who replied: "I 'do not understand the cable myself. No Treasury bills of any kind have been authorised to be used, nor has aay authority for £1,000,000 been given t y me. I am enquiring into the matter. — (Signed) J. G. Ward."
