CRISIS ON 'cAANeE IN LONDON
Mining Share Bubble Has Been Thor.
oughly Prickcd.

London, Oct. 1S.-Up to 8 o'clock this
afternoon the Barnato share settlement
passed without any special incident,
although trouble was aprehended. Bar
nato helped several brokers to tide
over settlement by supporting the
market himself. There was scarcely
bright spot in the list of stocks, but
the mining slump has been arrested for
moment by attention being devoted
to Barnatos, in which the difference
to be faced Is supposed to be enormous.
The feeling Is one OF great anxiety,
which is not relieved by the impression
prevalent in Paris that the mining
market has not seen the worst. In spite
Of this the changes today were not i'm
portant.
The attack on the Kaff1rs was re-
sumed, although the carry over of Bar
nato shares was effected. Fears are en-
tertained that failures must occur One
default is announced.
