Although the sky was overcast and the
weather promised to be unfavorable the largo
army OF callers mustered early yesterday. In
Fifth avenue and on Murray Hill they were
specially numerous. Faces looked plcasantcr
and gayer. and persons seemed mcrricr than
on any New Years Day since tho panic. 1t was
great contrast with the one OF 1874. Then
callers mounted the doorstcps and pulled tho
door bells in halting Misunderstanding way that
had very little life in IL. Real estate was going
down. and commercial and financial breakers
wero ahead everywhere. Tho fearful process OF
getting down to hard pan" had begun. and
no one knew how much harder the squeezing
was to bo or how much longer It was 70 be kept
up. Yesterday everything was different. Prop
crty was on tho rebound. Specie payments
were resumed. elevated railroads going up. and
everything looked favorable for a long OF
| peace. plenty. and prosperity. The Happy
| New lcars" had a ring about them that has
been lacking for long time.

have been termed Murphy men. Judging from
the way in which they raided on the liquid re-

deal ot Slipping and swaying. too. as they
