New York, Sept. 90.
The immigrant arrivals for the week
are AGA.
JAY Gould being asked for his views
concerning the financial situation
gave them as follows: Il think the
panic is over | have every faith now
on advance i'll prices, and believe the
market Will soon he nor buovaEt
than for a long time past. Wall street
has been cleared out of a great part of
worthless stocks and So-calicd Srcuri-
ties by the puiging process OF the
panic, aAd there are comparatively
few stocks quoted except those OF real
value. In all cases the prices are now
too low: and in the case of good diyi.
dend-paylnE stocks very large adj
vance are necessary to bring them
up 10 their actual worth. The reasons
o An advance are, that the money
market Will become easy as soon as
the Stock Exchange opens, owing to
very large quantities of greenbacks
winch have been disNursed by the
Government in its late bond pur-
cllases. An immense amount of CAPT.
tai has been put into circulation 10y
the action OF The banks in issuing
clearing house certificates which dis
place a corresponding quantity OF cur
rencv. England. in sending over
millions OF gold. which will come
into active use immediately on its ar
rival and speculation has had so long
y sleep that it will be all the more
lively when it wakes up again"
The disturbed state of the money
market has made it recess nv for
some large firms in this city to dis
charge many of their hands. and to
give others only three or four DAYS
work a week. One large manufac-
turing firm has closed up altogether.
Much difficulty is experienced hv en,-
plovers i'll getting cash for their work
men: and on Saturday last many
were paid either in whole or in part
in checks on nei-hboring cities. The
same condition of affairs exists now
as then.

Peavine District.

We find in the Reno State journal of
last Saturday the following encour-
aging mention of the above district.
Says the Journal:
The excitement in Reno to-day con-
corning the new mining district of
Peavlne Is intense. Assays received
this morning show Sc 81 of gold and
$500 silver. making a total value per
ton Of S71.57. This new district is
about 10 miles north Of Reno. The
Pavmaster is tie name Of the claim
from which the tlattering assay has
been obtained. The ledge in this
mine was struck YESTERDAY ard
worhmen are III nine feet. still there
Is no sign OF any casing. The width
Will he fully established in a dav or
two. The future permanencv of the
district never looked rs promising as
now. and we should not lie surprised
10 see a formidable rival of the Com
stock spring forth. All Reno will be
at the mines tomorrow.
