COMING TO THE RESCUE.
Bankers Meet to Assist the Bank of England
on Financial Matters.
tBY CABLE TO THE DIsPACCH.l


tBY CABLE TO THE DIsPACcH.l
LONDON, June 3.-The markets generally
opened firm on the denial by the chairman
of the bankers that the question of assisting
an important financial house had been one
of their reasons for calling together the rep
resentatives of the various banking estab-
lishments. 1t was emphatically announced
that the only reason for these meetings was
the desire to formulate some plan to assist
the Bank of England in preventing the dis
count rate from falling to figures that
would cause gold to flow from this country
to the Continent. Of course no denial
was or could be given to rumors that
some one was in difficulty; but the
above statement was considered satisfactory,
and was further borne out by the fact that
the bank had reduced its purchase price for
foreign gold coin to 76 shillings pence per
ounce. The opinion was general in the
market that some compromise would prob
ably be reached between the Bank of Eng
land and the other banks.
kilograms were received from Buenos
Ayres, announcing that four banking es-
Establishments closed their doors yesterday,
and that the run on the other banks had
assumed larger proportions. This was fol-
lowed by rumor of difficulties connected
with London branch of Buenos Ayres
house.

that crime had decreased to such an extent
that it was now justiiable to suspend the
