is cndeavoring to induce Secretary Boutwell,
to sell ST, 0O0, 900. This will enable them "a

the firm reside in Chicago, Cleveland ant
other cities, and are all wealthy men, EN-
bracing such capitalists as A. NJ. Stone ant
w. White, Cleveland. They have been tel
cgraphed to come to this city, and are ex
pected to arrive In season for the meeting or
Friday, when the situation Of affairs will b
more developed than at present. The firm
are unable to state their exact condition. /
is reported on the street that they are cred
tied with holding large amounts Of Pacific
Mail, Michigan Southern, Northwestern

At Fifth Avenue Hotel last night there wa!
an excited crowd until midnight. The gen
eral feeling was that relief was at hand, ant
men could again breathe freely. It was gen

due to the ~stringency of the money market
produced by the delay affecting c%learances O.
gold and currency accounts abroad, but ther.
were some who believed that some Of tn,
most prominent stocks in the market would
not recover from tho present downfall. Tn.

against the gold room selling Smith, Gould
& Martin out under their rates makes the
extraordinary confession that $40, 0O0, 900 o.
gold was bought and sold on account Of plain,
tiffs. Gould & Smith, in a single day. The
Times says Judge Cardoza, in granting this
injunction restraining the Gold Exchange
