Private letters from the bestnormed sources in the
western cities, state thai the excitement is sub,iiing

The amount Of gold to go by The Saturday steamer
yet uncertain. AS yet, the amount ascertained Is
only $500 coo, but the probability is that this amount

We hear to-day Of the suspension OF Messrs Reeves.
Buck & Co, Of Philadelphia, with liabilities Of about
q million. and assets Of million and halt. This
house was interested In the PbGnx Iron Works, and
is probably the largest iron manufacturers in tho

probably been the cause of their embarrassment
