day.
The Merchants Exchange Bank
does not open this morning in accord
ance with the almost positive Hssuranre
of the Secretary, given yesterday. II
may possibly do SO, during the day,
but itTw1ll depend on the success Of
the negotiations now pending. The
officers are apparently somewhat less
confident of immediate resumption
than they were yesterday, but say that
the delay is merely temporary.
The National Gold Bank and Trust
Company are still closed and unable
to say when they will resume, but say
the outlook is favorable.

employees of the manufacturing con-

interested, and concourse of artisans,
numbering thousands, brought up the
rear. The services at the cemetery

At the request of the Comptroller of
the Currency at Washington. DR..
Linderman, the Director General of
the United States Mint of this city,
has made a thorough examination of
the books and assets of the National
GolG Bank Trust Company, aud found
everything in satisfactory condition.
He will report the same to the COmptrOl-
Ter. The Bank will be left free by the
Government to manage its own affairs.
There is rumor on the streets today Of a
large over-issue of stock of the Bank of
Gala. 1t is also rumoreL that its culater-
ais and securities have mysteriously
disappeared, the only trace of them
left being the envelopes III which they
were sealed at the time of deposit. the
envelopes on examination were found
contain worthless paper. d. o. Mills,
in an interview this afternoon, stated
he knew of no such over-Issue, or dis
appearance of the colaterals. 1t is be-
lieved that the University ofCala. will
lose little if any by the suspension Of
the Bank of Calafornia.
The inquest in the case of Ralston
will be resumed tomorrow. The
stomach has been subject to chem
ical analysis. The feeling to-day is
cheerful among the business men. for
collection day has caused no failure.
Later.-Sharon is credited with the
statement that unless something un-
foreseen turns up, the directors of the
Bank of California will make no
statement, but the bank will resume
| business. An Attorney stated in the
rooms of the bar association to-day
that one of the directors of the Bank
of California informed him that the
affairs of the bank were in a much
better condition than he anticipate
when the directors commenced their
examination.
