London Bankers Deny that They Have
Ordered Withdrawals of American Gold

London, December 21.-Public atten-
ton here is almost entirely diverted
from the political TO the financial as
pect Of the Venezuelan situation. The
rumOr, circulated in this city, that the
ROthschilds had decided to Immediately
withdraw 5000 900 pounds ($25, 900, 000)
from America is attracting great atten-
ton But the ROthSchilds informed
the Associated Press to-day that this
report, as well as the report of the col
lapse Of negotiations fer United States
loan, were utterly untrue and that no
negotiations were pending regarding a
loan and that no Withdrawals OF gold
from the United States had been ordered
on account of the Rothschilds.
A representative Of the Associated
Press also called on Morgan, Brown &
Shipleys, Morton & Roses, and num-
Der Of other leading banking houses,
and especially those connected with the
United States. They generally regard
ed the situation as being more favor
able.
The head of one of the prominent
banking firms said to the Associated
Press representative:
1T seems that the political question
is now laid at rest by the authorization
Of the appointment of a commission of
sensible men who will have time TO
make their influence felt. My tele-
grams show no notices Of Withdrawals
for boarding
Continuing. the banker said: 81 am
satisfied that nothing serious will come
of IT,"
The manager Of a house whose in
fluence IS felt in every big financial
transaction. remarked:
IF European investors take every
thing seriously there is no knowing
where the decline VIII stop. But the
outlook is somewhat more favorable to-
day. After all the merchants and
bankers must make their influence felt
and we have indications that the really
serious business men Of America are
anxious to undo the harm the jingoes
have done"
The stock exchange opened with a
tendency to panic. All classes of Sc
cur.ties were freely offered, foreign gov
eminent securities were heavy and the
American market was quite disorgan-
lied. In fact. i was difficult to obtain
quotations. Soon after the market
opened Milwaukees fell 3, Louisville T.

ferred 81. This was followed by a

A BAD WRECK ON THE READING

Two Men Killed and Several Others Fatally
Injured-List OF the Victims.
Philadelphia, Pa, December 21.-The
local n0rth-bound train on the Reading
railroad. which left the station in this
city at 6:15 this morning and reached
the suburban town of Frankfort at 6:44,
started from the Frankfort station
without waiting, as IS customary. for
tha down train, which arrives at 6:44,
and the result was a head-On collision
at Sellers street, Uwo blocks north Of the
FrankfOrd station. Two persons were
killed and several injured, three Of
them fatally.
Killed:
DANIEL HART, aged 70 years, of
Frankfort.
GEORGE ANDERSON. aged 16 years,
Of Frankfort.
Injured:
EDWARD SCOTT, aged 20, Frank
ford both legs crushed, will probably
die.
SAMUEL SEWERS, aged SO, Frank
ford, both legs and one arm crushed;
Will probably de
GEORGE LEE, aged Is, frankfort,
both legs and one arm crushed; Will

CHARLES GUARD, aged 2S, Phila-
delphia, baggage master, injured about
lGss and shoulders.
HERBERT E. FRAY, aged II. Frank
ford, one leg crushed, body badly
bruised.
WILLIAM MOSLEY, aged Is, Frank
ford, both legs badly hurt.
IRWIN UDALL, aged 40, Frankfort,
both legs and one arm broken.
Several others were less seriously
hurt.
All the killed and seriously injured
with TWO exceptions were in the com
binatiOn car Of the outbound train. The
orders as a usual thing are for the out
ward bound train 10 wait at Frankfort,
the other train due at the same time
from the north.
The conductor of the north-bound
train, it is said, ordered the engineer
70 so ahead. The train had barely left
the depot when the engineer sent his
fireman back to ask Conductor Lewis
Jarrett if orders had been received to
go ahead. as he. the engineer, had
heard Of none. AS soon as the fireman
spoke to the conductor, the latter jump
ed up and pulled the rope for the train
to back. But before the engineer had
time 10 reverse, the down train crashed
into it. The force of the collision was
so great that the bumpers of both en-
gines were smashed to splinters. The
tender Of the norjh-bound train was
driven clear through the baggage COM
partment of the combination car into
the smoking compartment, which was
crowded with passengers, and this is
where the slaughter took place.
