TIE DAY CLOSES WITH A HOPEFUL RRELlNG
ESTABLISHED.
The Evening Post says the day closed
with an established improvement ID the
general feeling. One day more with the
Stock Exchange closed will, it is thoy7ght,
put everybody in such condition, so far
as the exercise of reason is concerned,
that it will be prudent for the brokers 10
again begin busin ess. This afternoon
money lent on the street as high as I per
cent, that rate having been paid by dis
tressed brokers. President Vail, of the
Bank of Commerce, said this afternoon
that confidence had been very greatly
improved. He thought the action of the
government in buying five-twenties had
been highly beneficial in loosening green
backs.
PRESIDENT GRANT A HEAVY LOsER-EX-
PRESIDENT JOHNSON RENDERED PENN
LESS.
New YORK, Sept. %.
a special Washington dispatch TO the
N. y, Tribune says that the most prom
inent depositor in the First National
bank, next to President Grant, was An
drew johnson. In the First National he
has always kept his account since he
was made President. At the time of the
failure of the bank, Mr.. johnson had
$50, 600 to his credit, on which he was
receiving per cent interest, which was
his only revenue. Should the bank be
unable to discharge its obligations, con-
tingency by no means improbable, eX-
President johnson will be almost penni-
less. Another case which will excite
sympathy is that of Mrs. John G. Will
son, whose husband, member of Con-
gress-elect from Oregon, recently died.
Mr.. Wilson had 81, 900 on deposit in the
bank when he died, and arrangements
were making by Judge Williams and
Senator Kelley to obtain the money for
the widow, who is wholly without
means, ane is now teaching school TO
support her family. The Smithsonian
