CoNsOLS FELL SHARPLY.
The Situation Is Viewed With Alarm by Spec
ulatOrs and Bankers.

London. March 25.-The chief feature
of the transactions on the stock ex-
change today was the continued selling
of consols, which showed further
sharp fall. During the morning consois
fell to 90 and even q shade below that
figure. There was practically no home
support, but the continent kept buying
small lots The possibility OF consois
being in the eighties has created con-
sternation not only among spectators
and investors, but in the great banking
interests. Should consols 60 down to
and remain below 80, every British bank
will be obliged to reorganize its reserve
AMI get out new balances upon fresh
basis. Such serious contingency,
however, is scarcely believed possible
