A despatch from Ottawa, says: Officials of the Department of Fi- nance are inclined to the view that the Austro-Servian war will have no serious efiect on economic con- ditions in Canada.

In this conâ€" nection it is claimed, however, that most of the loans sought» for the present year have either been tloat- ed or are in the hands of the under- writers.
