The San Francisco Panic.
Inquest on the Body Of
Ralston.
A New Assistant Postmaster
General.
The Marsh Investigating
Committee in Denver.

San Francisco, Aug. 2S.-The street
wears quieter aspect to-day aud it is
believed that the excitement is over.
The banks anticipate no trouble. The
death of Ralston forms the principal.
topic of conversation flags are at half
mast throughout the city, and express
sions of regret and sympathy for the
deceased banker are heard on all sides.
Later information tends strongly to
disprove the theory of suicide, aud the
statements attending the conversations
go to show that his death resulted from
day. Mr.. Ralston transferred all his
property to senator William Sharon
for the benefit OF his creditors, and
Mr.. Sharon, in receiving the trust
pledged his honor to stand 10y his old
friend To the last dollar of his own
private fortune. At meeting of the
trustees Of the Bank OF California
yesterday, Ralston prophesied that If
the management was left in his hands
he would pay dollar for dollar to the
cussiOn 1t was decided to accept his
resignation.
The inquest has commenced on the
body of Ralstou. The Bank OF Gala
fornia was draped in mourning. All
is quiet on California street, and mat
tiers are assuming their usual aspect.
The business men do not apprehend
any further failures on Monday, col
lection day. Rumo"s relative TO the
popular feeling and demonstrations
against the Bulletin and Call, are idle,
mere utIerances OF excited individuals,
and iucendiaryrefforts on the part of
some parties perso nally and particu-
larly hostile t" those journals, to create
enmity against them, but the attempts
fell still born.
Ralston's funeral has been postponed
till Monday at IL II. IN.
