SAN FRANCIsCO, October BY hall.
past 0 o'clock this morning the crowd
began to gather in the vicinity Of the
Bank Of California. Inside every prepa,
ration had been made Tor opening.
The President, Directors and members
Of the Syndicate were on hand, with smil.
ing faces and looking As though load
had been lifted from their shoulders. The
President stated that the bank was fully
prepared to pay all demands upon pre-
scntation, except such ~ had been pro-
vidcd for otherwise, and that there was
no doubt OF its ability to 90 on with bust
ness without further difficulty.
by lOO'ClOCk the streets and sidewalks
were jammGd with people. At the ap-
pointed hour the doors were swung open
amid the cheers Of the crowd, which at
once made u rush, blocking the space out
side the counters. Evidently by far the
larger proportion OF those present were
there a. loOkers-on, though the services
Of the tellCrs were at once called into
rcquisitiOn, and the counters were lined
with those presenting checks.
II was expected that II large demand
would be made upon the bank, not from
want Of confidence, but simply from need
Of coin, which has been 30 long locked up.
At the present writing the crowd il surg.
ing in and out Of the building, flags are
mast.hcaded on the California stand, and
II salute Is being fired from Miggs' wharf.
Coin is now lowing both ways at the
Bank Of California, large amounts being
deposited, and it is thought that the de
posils during the day will equal, or per.
haps exceed, the payments. The best Of
feeling prevails.
The ex.mcmbcrs Of the New York 7lh
Regiment, residing in Frisco, held u ban.
Quct last night at Maison DOrc, and or.
ganizcd II society Of the 7th Regiment Vet
crans OF the Pacific.
The Bank Of California remained open
to-day until ! T.. M.-an hour later than
customary on Saturday. During the
three hours the amount Of deposits re-.
Ccivcd exceeded checks paid by $3.50.
600. Confidence seems mpletcl y cstab-
Iishcd. Congratulations are hearty on all
