GERMAN INDEMNITY.
SURPRISE FOR GERMANY. UNEXPECTED ATTITUDE. PARIS, Sept. 14. Germany did not expect Belgium to press for bonds and will probably declare that she cannot deposit the gold, the Government advanoing the argument that the Reiohsbank cannot surrender the gold. On the other hand an instalment of twenty l eight million four hundred thousand marks is due on September 15 as compensation, and possibly Germany will cover this payment in order to prove her goodwill. In view of the renewed negotiations with Belgium, certain circles say that Germany will pay fully. M. Marcel Ilutin, writing in the Echo de Paris, says that now and direct negotiations between Brussels and Berlin will open a way to an agreement within a few days. —A. and N.Z. cable. FREE HAND FOR POINCARE. PARIS, Sept. 14, The Council of Ministers gave M. Poincare a free hand with the reparations, approving of his secret instructions. These aro understood to include a demand that the Reparations Commission should proclaim Germany voluntary default.—A. and N.Z. cable.
