LONDON FIRMS HARD HIT
GREAT LOSSES 4TERTED.
Narro5c Escape of Many Brokers
from Failure.

London. oct 16.-''The Daily Chronicle" in
its financial article this morning states that
the Stock Exchange settlement proved disas-
trous to one of the largest OF the London stock
broking firms. whose losses estimated at
Il 100000 The failure of the house only
prevented by sort Of forced liquidation OF its
affairs, so huge and complicated that the City
did not dare allow the firm to fall openly. 1t is
said that the firm will be wound up and that it
will go out OF business.
1t is also reported that several other impor-
tant firms were compelled practically to wind
up. or have been assisted by banks and finan-
ciers to the extent of many millions.
The other papers say that relief is felt that
the settlement passed off without failures. THE
Daily Telegraph" describes it as one of the most
distressing accounts that the Stock Exchange
can recall The differences to be met were enor-
nous. and the lifting of such load from the
market caused a buoyancy of prices at the close.
According to The Standard" all the stocks
affected, which were Of highly speculative
character, have now passed into strong hands.
