Bros Trouble.
BosToN, Nov. 15.-Kidder, Peabody &
Co. when asked for information regard
ing the reported liquidation of Barring
Bros. and their own business connection
Herewith, stated that on Thursday they
had no intimation of such step on the
part of their London correspondents,
and on that day sold cable transfers to
large amounts, one for ESQ, 900. Yester-
day they suspected that everything was
not right. This morning the New York
branch of Kidder, Peabody & Co. tele-
graphed that the Baring's had gone into
liquidation. This,o course, notified them
to stop drawing exchanges on them. 1t
is evident that there will be no anxiety
on the part OF the creditors of the firm,
as their assets are in excess of their liza
bilities, probably 94,00O,000. They have
been virtually carrying the Argentine
Republic loan and taking back the hold
ings of dissatisfied customers to whom
they ssold parts thereof Kidder, Pea
body & Co., state that in any event the
Bank of England would help Barring
Bros. over temporary difficulties, and
all their difficulties cannot possibly be
more than temporary. The connection
of the Barings with Kidder, Peabody &
Co., has been of the most intimate ma
ture, but their relations will not lead to
any complications which will affect the
Boston firm.

LONDON, Nov. 15.-The Times, refer
ring to the financial situation, says
'"The city has passed through crisis
verging upon a panic. The worst is
over. The Bank of England, by prompt
action, has averted a lamentable catas-
trophe, by providing fast reinforcements
to it's stock of gold to meet the excep-
tional demands. 1t has also prevented
the downfall of one of the greatest and
most respected English financial houses,
which, if fallen, would have brought
down in widespread ruin a large number
of smaller, but important firms"
The banking house referred to by the
Times is Barring Brothers & Co. They
have been helped through by the Bank
of England, the Rothschilds and several
London joint stock banks, who made
large advances to the firm. Barring
Brothers position is now believed to be

TALK OF THE STREET.
The Scare Took Place After the Crisis
Was Over.

New York, Nov. 15.-Private cables
were received before the opening of the
stock exchange, announcing the trouble
of Barring brothers. The statement that
the Bank of England, Rothschilds and
Others had taken up the accounts of
Barring Brothers, amounting to 915, ,000,-
600, created profound sensation. Con-
ferences of brokers were at once held,
and it was decided to have brokers in
every stock that could be handled to bid
ON advanced price at opening, to avert q
sudden shock. As the result, prices for
nearly all active stocks opened above
last nights close.
Wild Excitement.
A scene of wild excitement and pos
tive panic existed in all portions of the
list. Stocks were thrown over in the
most reckless manner. The losses in
the first hour exceeded anything seen
since the present decline began. Every
one was trying to sell out his holdings
without regard to loss or gain. Deal
ings were simply enormous, and the
rapidity with which quotations melted
away was 50 mething unprecedented,

A Panic Created by the Trouble of Bar
ing Brothers.

A Panic Created by the Trouble of Bar
ing Brothers.
New YORK, Nov. 15.-The stock mark
ct today during it's two hours session,
was the liveliest since the great slump
of December Is, 1885, and for the space
of an hour or more there existed a per-
feet panic among the holders OF securi-
ties, especially railroad stocks, and the
declines established during that time
were greater than ever before seen in
the same time. The only cause of ex-
citement was the announcement from
London that the great firm of Barring
Bros. had been forced to seek assistance
to tide them over the present financial
crisis, and the holders of stocks became
panic-stricken over the news, without
rejecting that the danger had really al
ready passed when the Bank of England
and the Rothschilds came to the rescue.
Early advices from London were re-
assuring, and the crisis was represented
as over there, and continuing the inn
provement begun yesterday, the first
prices were generally fractionally higher
than Yesterdays figures. The announce
ment about the Barings was thrown at
the market Immediately, however, and
the good feeling disappeared in an in
stant; az did also prospective buyers.
The whole room became sellers at the
best prices obtainable.
The Force Of the Decline.
The force OF the decline may be gath
cred from the fact that in the short
space of one hour Lackawanna had
dropped away 9ls Pullman, 81; Can
ada Southern, 61a; Atchison, 5A; Bur
lington, IN; Rock Island, 5l4, and 9TH
ers from to 5 per cent.
The drop, however, soon brought into
the market the class of buyers who are
paying outright for their securities, and
the current soon turned by this support,
when the bears joined in buying to
realize profits accrued upon the tremen-
dous drop.
Early selling soon developed the fact
that there were large selling orders In
the market, and the trading and pro-
fessional element soon took the market
away from sellers, and innumerable stop
orders were quickly uncovered render
ing the stampede more serious every
minute.
Ine DOWuWarO uoVcIhchp NhooACu'
After the downward movement was
checked, the bank statement was issued,
showing material gain in the surplus
reserve, and the growing strength of the
banks leaves no further feeling of appre-
hension among Wall-street houses, and
the general impression is that as soon as
London becomes quiet there will be no
disturbing influence found here.
The rally which obtained within the
last hour extended to per cent and
over in some of the most pronounced
cases, but the upward movement was in
sufficient to make up anything like the
losses incurred, and an extremely fever
ish and unsettled feeling marked the
trading throughout.
The close was active and strong for a
moment at material losses for the day.
The final losses are very material, and

York stock exchange. The opening was
rather weak, and when the news of a
break in New York stocks was received,
in spite of the cabled announcement that
Barring Brothers had received heavy
support, a panic set in. EVERYBODY sold
and prices went off with such rapidity
that it was almost impossible to do busi-
ness. December wheat went down from
81 to 8S, May corn dropped to 505a, JAN
uary pork to $11.15. Then news of a
better tone on the New York exchange
was received, and recovery followed.
December wheat advanced to 93, the re-
mainder Of the list proportionately.
During the remainder of the session the
