THE STOCK PANIC.
Another Quiet Day.

New YORK, Oct. 3.-The members of the
firm of Jay Cooke & Co., have pooled their
private property and personal assets and will
place it at the command of their creditors in
liquidation.
it was officially announced at the exchange
this morning that the governing committee had
expelled Messrs. Grinnell & Williams for nom
compliance with the rules set down by the
committee.
There is some fear now now that when the
three days's grace allowed by the Stock Ex-
change have expired a number of failures will
be announced.
The house of G. B. Grianel & Co., was large
ly long of Lake Shore, Western Union, New
York Central and other Vanderbilt stocks. The
failure was the occasion of much Indignation as
it is supposed that bankruptcy proceedings were
instituted in collision with creditors for the
purpose of enabling the firm to sell their stock
if rates went up or to fall without additional
loss it the prices went down.
CHICAGO, Oct. 3-Financial and commercial
maettrs here continue to improve and every
thing appears to be rapidly settling back into a

for grain is active and prices higher.
Suspension in Columbus.
COLUMBUS, Oct. 3.-The bankers here have
refused to agree upon any plan for mutual pro-
lection, and this news becoming public, small
depostors have made general run upon all
the banks. The following banks have sus-
pended in consequences: Recheys Bank and
the Commercial Bank. Other suspensions
will probably occur soon.
The Commercial Bank has not closed its
doors. 1t is paying small checks to people as
are also Bartlett & Smith. Several large
manufacturing establishments that feared be-
ing compelled to reduce their force have been
assured by the national banks that they can
have all the money they need on sixty or nine
ty days paper. The feeling is more easy than
this morning.
Quiet in Cincinnati.

cy payments is eagerly looked for.
ATLANTA, Oct, 3.-John a. James, the ban
ker who suspended, resumes business to-day.
What the Thunderer Thinks.
LONDON. Oct. 3.-The Times in an editorial
retrospect of the late American financial panic,
says the recklesSness and dishonesty lately
characterizing the management of some of the
greatest undertakings in Americ have induced
chronic nervousness, momentarly liable to be-
come acute. Even Americans, saws the Times,
are not all smart men or daring spectators. lt
thinks that the danger has disappeared for the
present A country with an immense field for
enterprise and comparatively limited capital is
always liable to panics The Improvements in
western communications are most useful and
profitable. but may cause further trouble. The
entire blame for the disaster rests upon the I'M

Music HALL.-Last evening Music Hall was
packed full to OVERLOOKING with the best class of
audience ever gathered within its walls. Lib
daily papers unquestonably had good deal to
do with the bringing together of so large an
audience. If the performance had been first
class and the usual and proper attention had
been given to the comfort and rights of the
audience Charlie Shay would have won repu-
tation in this city that would ever after ensure
him full house whenever he might choose to
visit Portland. As it was he injured, if not
ruined his reputation. The performance was
cheap and made up of parts already worn
threadbare by other troupes The only redeem
ing feature of the whole entertainment was the
introduction of the 'tNat Rogers Family" in
their classic groupings. But if cheap per-
Torrance was the only complaint to be made it
would matter little, for it would soon be for
gotten The outrageous part of the exhibition,
was the swindling of the public out of their
rights to reserved seat for which every man
who bought one paid twenty-five cents extra.
There were no reserved seats. There were no
ushers, and people were told upon entering the
hall to find seat where they might Parties
who had paid the extra price in advance for
their seats, were separated and there was a
general mixing up. On all sides the manager
was denounced for this outrage upon the public
of this city.
