The Philadelphia Banks Seeking Relief from the
Penalties of SuspenSion-Cov. Pollock In Consu.
tation with their COmmittee-The New York mud
Boston Banks-Their Position &c.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 27--There is nothing definitely
settled upon by the banks here yet and they are una
BILE to accomplish unanimity of action Gov. Pollock
is in town. and met by a committee last night who
made application to him to convene an extra session of
the Legislature to enact for saving the banks
from the penalties of suspension and for relieving the
community by allowing those institutions to furnish the
necessary currency.
The general impression both here and in New York
in regard to the banks of the latter CITY is that thew
will not suspend but some other wellnormed parties
think differently and regard it as probable that the
New DIRK banks will suspend upon their deposit even
as early as tomorrow. But supposing this not to be
the case these parties think they will be compelled to
suspend within three days. or week at flrthest, and
then on both circulation and deposits 1t is considered
in the quarters referred to that the New York banks
can redeem their present circulation of seven or eight
millions with their twelve OR thirteen millions spece hit
that they cannot pay off their ninety millions of deposits
If portion of it be turned into circulation in the form
of notes.
This being Sunday, we have nothing conclusive from
Boston as to the which the banks in that quar-
ter contemplate pursuing In intelligent financial cir
cles however, it is not doubted that they will imme
atey suspend should the New York Banks do SO. and
probably will find it more convenient to follows the ey
ample Of their Philadelphia and Baltimore friends in anv
case. " ~

R8gn All the talk about temporary suspension"
speedy resumption etc, by the Philadelphia Banks
amounts to just nothing in the face of the fact that thew
are urging upon the Governor of Pennsylvania to call
extra session of the Legislature Of that State for the
purpose of giving them pardon for the past and security
from the future. They want the Legislature to repeal
the enactments by which the banks forfeit their charters
and incur other penalties i'll of suspension They
want not only to escape the legal penalties of the exist
ing suspension, but also free license to stay suspended"
