AMERICANS IN LONDON.

London, May g. p. m.--Not In the
memory of the oldest stock broker In
London has there been such panic as
prevailed this afternoon In Americans.
After the closing OF the stock exchange
hundreds Of dealers endeayored to
struggle into the narrow confines OF
Shorters Court. where outside dealings
are done, IN efforts TO rise or reduce, as
the case might be, Americans To New
York parity Suddenly there developed
a terrific slump IN Ulion Pacific, when
was knocked down 20 points In as many
seconds. 81. Paul suffered almost as
badly. Large and small brokers rushed
TO the scene until Thr0ckmorton street
became impossible. The rain poured
down but the excited crowd paid no
heed to H. Parties formed themselves in
TO flying wedges in an eDdeavor to force
their way into the center OF Shorters
Court, at which spot the principal deal
ing was done. All sorts Of conditions
and prices were shouted at the top Of
the operators voice, Down, down went
Americans. The leading houses sent
urgent orders to buy or sell, but found
II almost impossible TO have their or
ders executed Rails Of every descfj-
ton were quoted at rock-b0ttom prices,
and Steel and other securities fell In
sympathy. Then, without rhyme or
reason, reaction set in. Up and down
went Americans After about half IN
hour of this panIcky speculation more
reasonable feeling prevailed and stocks
rose TO within few points Of their price
when the stock exchange closed. But
long after the usual hours hundreds Of
stock brokers, most OF them drenched te
the skin, traded in the hope Of getting
clear before tomorrow's opening.
j Pierpont Morgan Jr. said TO a rep
resentatlye OF the Associated Press:
80 far as | know there was no rea-
sen for this panic except utter lack
Of information regarding the conditions
OF the railroad market In America, |
do not app ehend any serious results"
Mr.. Brown, partner in the firm OF
Speyer Brothers said;
TT cannot be called anything but a
panic. Still ! DO not expect failures,
except. possibly, a few small ones. The
crowd is too terribly excited to trans
act many dealings. and not much stock
has changed hands There Is no earth
~ reason for today's scene, except the
endeayor to keep pace with New York,
which is heing done In the dark and
led TO a panic such as we never have
had before The rise that came TO an
end was only to be expected, but the
affair viii hurt Americans here and It
will probably be some time before a
feeling Of security Is thoroughly re-
established
a representative Of seigman Broth
ers said
1.-THE market here Is only a reflex OF
New York. Without accurate knowl-
edge Of the conditions there It Is impos.
sible 10 say what viii happen here. We
are quite In the dark, but do not antici-
pate any serious results"
