NEW YORK, December 27.-Thc Posts
financial says "The excitement Of ycster-.
day, caused by the suspension of Meter d
Co., by the fear that colaterals from them
were not safe, has passed away since it has
been ascertained that the collaterals could
be obtained by taking up the loans made to
Meter & Co. on them. Nearly all these
collaterals have already been recovered.
The amount of loans to which Meter & Co.
were q party was S3,000,000, rs we learn at
their office. The collaterals on these will
all have been obtained at q cost to the
owners OF the collaterals OF S150,000 to
100000, for which Meter Il Co. will be
responsible. The firm have wealthy con-
ncctions, and it is not improbable that this
amount will be forthcoming.
