MONEY AND STOCKS.
The bear campaign on stock ex.
change made u havoc with values 10.
day and was the great feature OF Wall
street. Tho speculative securities were
pressed for sale with much confidence
by the bears during the morning, and
later in the day the bulls became
frightened when stocks were thrown
overheard almost without regard 10
prices. The feeling during the after
noon was gloomy and for some time
the market was bordering on a panic.
The .shrinkage In values has been
enormous and many stocks touched
the lowest point for years past. Reports
were freely circulated that the Secre-
tary OF Treasury would yield 10 the
pressure for change In hts policy.
Dispatches from Washington say the
speciU statement made by the New
York city banks, on thsSIh inst, shows

10 the purposes OF leading speculators
who had been prominent In etfectinH
the decline. One OF these Ia, that u
meeting WAS held to-day TO organize
