VIEWS IN BERLIN.
Financiers Believe the Crisis Has Been
 Safely Passed.

Berlin, October 25.-The financial community, which is taking deep inter- est in the crisis in the United States, was today inclined to the view that the climax had passed The bourse tends to more cheerful estimate of the situation partly under the influence of London opinion. Berlin operators are showing confidence in an early re- coyery of Wall street by buying Amer ican securities in London and New York, and the considerable amount of this buying has caused a sharp rise in American and English exchange.
 Many authorities are discussing the causes leading to the crisis. The Frankfurter Zeitung says it finds there are three of these, first, an antiquated banking system which does not even protect from the most palpable frauds; second. moral insanity of leading per sonages who use the enormous sums committed to their trust to fill their own pockets; third. unbrdled excesses in speculation and the establishment of new undertakings leading finally to an absolute dsproportion between the supply and demand of new capital.
 The Boersen Courier also points out what 1t terms the inadequacy of the American banking system and the need o1 strong central bank able to supply currency demands in an emergency. The paper says an interest rate of 100 per cent is disgraceful to a country which boasts so great wealth.
 The Vossische Zeitung says it ad- mires the cool headedness and circum- spection with which the banks in New York are adopting measures to check the panic

DEEPER PROBING
 INRAILROAD CASE
THE SOUTHERN RAILWAY MUST BE SUBJECTED TO FURTHER ACTION FROM THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA,

Washington, October 25.-A deeper prob ing into the Southern Railway company, growing out of the resistance of that company to the action of the North Caro- lima legislature in reducing passenger fares in that state than is believed pos sble under the recent ruling of Master in Chancery Montgomery in the North Carolina rate hearing case, was consid- cred at conference here today between Gov. Glenn of North Carolina and former Governor Aycock and former Congress man Woodward. counsel for North Caro- lima The ruling of Master in Chancery Montgomery, sustained by Judge Prit- chard, was that the examination could not be made of the Southern railway s books further back than two years. It was the contention of the states counsel that this ruling was unfair on the ground that unless they were afforded an oppor- tunity to go as far back as 1895 a com plete case could not be made for the state. The conference will be resumed to- morrow.

JUDGE PARKER CRITICAL.
He Refers In Sarcastic Terms To Mir,
 Bryan's Speech.

New York, October 25.-Alton B. Parker, former democratic candidate for President, said today that he had seen w. J. Bryan's statement in Schenectady yesterday, that when in Congress MT. Bryan advocated a law to protect depositors from exactly such conditions as occurred in New York during the past few days. Commenting thereon, he said:
 How glorious it is to be a heaven born financial genius. What a pity Congress could not have appreciated the wonderful advantages of such a law. Had they appreciated 1t, we would not have needed yesterday the patriotism of J. F. Morgan that prompt ed him to throw $27,00O,O00 into the maelstrom at a critical moment; the $25 900 of the government, the $10,- 900 of Rockefeller and the money and strenuous labor of public spirited and honest bankers and business men who strovc nightly to save business generally and therefore every citizen from ultimate injury.

Providence Institutions Issue Notices
 of Withdrawal.

Providence, R. l., October 25--Although a temporary receiver was appointed for one trust company, while another com pany is inforcing the rule requiring 90 days notice of withdrawal and third withstood a heavy run. it was believed generally in Providence banking circles tonight that the local crisis had been passed
 The bank of which a receiver was ap- pointed was the Union Trust company, an institution with branches in Olneyville Central Falls and East Greenwich. This is the bank on which the run started yesterday. Cornelius S. Sweetland, vice president, was named as receiver. The New England Trust company today put into operation the rule requiring all de- positors to give 90 days notice of with drawals. Gen. Charles A.

TRAIN CREW ROBBED.
Three Armed Men Get Money and
 Watches and Escape.

Los Angeles, October 25.-Three armed men last night held up freight train within five miles of this city, wounded one of the train crew, robbed them of $250 and two watches and made their escape. The train was a suburban freight bound for New Al hambra. It is believed the robbers boarded it before it started from the yards. The engineer, fireman and head brakeman were in the cab when their assailants climbed over the box cars and covered them with revolvers and robbed them. Fireman Brady ob- jected at first to raising his hands and afterward lowered them. One of the men on the, oil tank fired, a bullet striking the fireman in one of his hands.
 Near Dodgeville the engineer was or dered to slow down and the men then jumped from the engine and disap- peared in the darkness.
