Witnesses said the payments flowed to Juan Leguia and other promoters, with profits to Seligman and company and related firms. The three Peruvian loans are in default and bonds now trade for about seven dollars, while the bankers ledger shows multi million dollar commissions and profits as the state department previously objected only weakly to the loans. The hearing illustrated methods used by international bankers in South America and the moral responsibility of the state department. Hearings resume next Monday.
