Fears of Trouble at Settlement
Hea,y Fall in ConSOls.

London. March 13.-Increasing nervous de-
preston, amounting TO a panic. characterized
the curb dealings in American securities after
the close OF the regular market to-day. Union
Pacific was offered at 1855 Atchison at $751;
Baltimore & Ohio at 1867. Canadian Pacific al
lac. and Erie at PTS.
Few transactions were effected. but the great
est excitement prevailed, and there was consid-
cradle apprehension that the heavy differences
to he met during the general settlement to-
morrow might possibly lead TO difficulties.
Careful inquiries made in the most reliable
quarters failed TO discover any definite reason
for the days depression. 1t is variousy attrib-
uted to trouble in Berlin. Hamburg. Liverpool
and Dundee hut no confirmation is obtainabe of
any OF the adverse rumors.
The depression affected equally both the money
and stock markets
Consols to-day touched low water mark S42l
Other gilt edged securities We're depressed in
sympathy. Operators attributed the decline TO
the scarcity and dearness Of money, to the liqui-
dation Of accounts and TO the number OF new
issues, which are more attractive because of the
higher rate of interest. while the expectation
that the United States will shortly be In a posi-
tion to take gold from this market led to the fear
of another advance in the Bank Of Englands

In the afternoon consols fell to 81 l5-l6 for the
account and TO 81 l1-l6 for money. both new
records, but subsequently recovered 3-16. to
S51s for the account.
While to-day's trading began with recovery
in prices because operators that yester-
days marked weakness was without cause. as
far foreign markets We're concerned. quota
lions dropped later upon provincial selling
ders, and the downward movement gained
new impulse thereby particularly in Industrial
shares and municipal loans.
New York's influence upon the Boerse had
been rather favorable this week but. neverthe-
less the home money conditions create nervous
anxiety among the traders and the private rate
of discount continues with upward tendency
under heavy offerings Of short bills. The mar
ket estimates the interest rate for carry-over
money for the March settlement at 81 per cent.
Spectators are making the most of all reports
which seem to foreshadow a reversal of the
present world boom. Various slight indications
of a change in the homo iron market have been
used bear arguments against iron and coal
shares, by which many standard securities have
been beaten down from u to 20 points since the
first of the year. Nevertheless. leaders OF the
coal and iron industries assert that there is no
| reason TO apprehend an early relaxation of the
prosperity. the mills are running at their
utmost capacity and abundant orders will pro-
vide work for many months TO come.

Edwin HaWley. one Of the most experienced

on the market, said:
I attribute the renewed weakness Of the

own good stocks are selling them, partly be-
