were not definitely confirmed, and upon
hopes and expectations which were not
realized; that is, during the greater part
of the business session. The most efrectve
factor in the recovery was unquestlonaDiy
the cable dispatches from Paris to the eff
feet that the Bank Of France had declared
its willingness to place at the disposal OF
the Bank of England some G6,OU,OU or

hand today gave some color of truth to the
press advices, although actual confirmation
of the fact was not received Exchange

The presence in the city of the secretary
of the Treasury excited the hopes ana ex-

had in mind some additional measures for
the relief of the monetary situation His
movements and whereabouts were closely
followed, but nothing that was definite and
satisfactory could be ascertained as 10

Largely in response to the state or the
London money market sterling exchange

- Days Transactions Fell Off.
As might be expected, the course of the
London stock market was keenly scanned
previous to the opening of business upon
the local stock exchange. In the American
department large transactions were report

fluctuations Other departments of the Lon
don market were. on the other hand, dull
and steady. Very heavy operations were
conducted here for foreign account. which
resulted on balance in the sale Of about
25.OD shares.

GOLD HUNGER ABROAD
PARIS AND LONDON BOTH
GUARDING MARKET,

PARIS, October 22.-The leading French
financiers are keenly watching the mon
etary situation abroad. The position of
Paris Is fairly good, and the prevailing i'm
phession Is that the Bank Of France will not
hurt French interests by raising it's discount
rate. At the same time, while 1t Is consid-
cred possible that the Bank Of France
might make moderate loan Of gold to the
Bank of England to relieve the conditions
there. 1t would. it Is asserted, resist with
drawals of gold for America. A prominent
international banker expressed the opinion
to the Associated Press today that the
United States would not get much more gold
here. the bank would block any attempts
in that direction, not by raising the ais
count rate but by exercising its option to
pay in silver. The banker said that he ex-
pressed the view of French bankers in say
ing the United States had sufficient funds
for the legitimate requirements of trade,
and that there was no reason why Europe
should help to finance the speculative move
ment in New York.
Exchange today was considerably below
At the Bank of France reticence was
manifested in regard to the extent to
which that institution would be willing
to help out the Bank Of England, but it is
considered entirely unlikely that the as
sistance, If accorded, will reach $50, 900 900
to $4O,OOOO0O, the amount referred to In
current reports.
London Gold Situation.
LONDON. October 22.-The tone on the
stock exchange generally this morning was
much more hopeful. operators having about
concluded that the per cent discount rate
of the Bank of England would prove effec-
tive in stemming the outflow of gold.
American securities had an exciting
morning. Saturdays break in Wall street
caused a heavy liquidation here, and there
were many sales from the continent. At the
opening values were point below parity,
but good support was soon forthcoming, and
there was quite boom before noon, prices
being rushed UP two points from the lowest
quotations. and the whole list practically
recovered the parity loss For instance,
Union Pacific. which was offered at 1884, re-
covered to 1877. and Canadian Pacific, which
was offered at 176A, went up to 179. Some
good American buying orders helped the re-
covery. which also was aided by the report
that the Bank Of France was prepared to
assist the Bank OF England to the extent
of thirty to forty million dollars in gold
All the gold available In the open market
today, 81, 100000, was secured by the Bank
of England. There was no competition on
the part Of the United States, and the
price was reduced an eighth Of a point, in
dicating the belief on the part of the bank
that it will be able to build up It's reserve
by securing the larger amount Of the metal
available next week.
