Ri --_-- _§""e"™Y ao Officials of Clearing House and Bailkers Had a Conference in New York and it Was Declared That Not a Bank Wanted Aid or Asked For It. New York, March 15.-~In the stock market, yesterday, there were losses of from $10 to $20 in many railway and industrial sconrities, which have long been known. as standard invest- ment stocks In the cases of Reading and Union Pacific, the loss exceeded 820 a share. In the total of securi- ties on the list there were heavy net osses, representing in the aggregate move than half a million dollars, to say nothing of the losses in the out- side market and resultant losses in markets in other cities. The average decline of twenty railway stocks, used for statistical purposes, was $7.81 a share, as against $5.10 on the pre veding day. The market, as the figures show, lapsed from the condition of demoral- ization prevailing on the previous dav and on two davs of last week, into of absolute panic! Yet, whatever the clearing house sheets may disclose, on the show down, this morning, no failure was reported up to late last evening. The situation is regorded ag amazing. Late yesterday afternoon there was an informal conference of officials of the clearing house and' re prosentatives of some of the largest clearing house banks. By personal interview and by telephone the situn- tion wi thoroughly canvassed and every ort was made to locate weak spots. In the language of a pro- minent clearing house official this was the result of the informal action : 'Not a single bank wants aid or is asking for it." one SLEW MISSIONARIES, .
