The situation In New York.
New YORK, May l5.-An easier
feeling prevails In business circles in
New York this morning, and the gen.
eral opinion Is that the climax has
been reached. Among the suspended
firms yesterday were also Wilson
Robsnson 4 Co., Golf 4 Randall, Or
lando NJ. Bogert & Co. and A. b. Bog
ert 4 Co., also J. c. Williams, Hotch
kiss 4 Bumham, Dyett & Co., John G.
Emo and Hatch & Foote. The Allan
tic State bank Of Brooklyn also went
to the wall, and it Is believed the
Ph9nix bank, of New York, came
very near 1t. The Donnell La wson
Co., and suspension Of the Metropsli.
tan bank caused the greatest excite
ment, but the latter resumed to-day
The only failure of importance to-day
10 that of Fisk 4 Hatch. Jay Gould
says that a general panic Is impossible,
and that people are foolish to get un.
easy. Stocks went off yesterday 5 to
10 per cent, and regained to-day two
TO five points. Northern Pacific pre-
ferred classes at 46. The panic was
felt In London, and one small failure
followed there.
