Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, New Yonz, Bopt, 25,—The day haa been ono of great uncertainty, but Hitle excitement. The crowd in ‘Wall atroot to-dsy was slmost entirely composed of tho # beara " in stocks who eagerly demandod that Ex- chango ba opencd, and a still largor number of lavos- tors, who wero suxious to purchaso etocks outright in order to Iny thom awsy, The excited crowds which havo ined the eidowalks and ornamented the Treasury Building wero misscd to<dny, The grest event this ‘morning, aud one which oxcited the most public atten- tion, was the announcement on the doora of the Treas- ury Building that the - + " IUNONASE OF BOKDS IAD DEKN GUSPENDED, Yestordsy Gon. Hillhouse had beon very husy in clrculating tho {nformation that $13,000,000 in greene backs had becn paid out from the Tressury, ‘To-lay {he nstounding fact became known that over $24,000,- 000 had beon paid out, Somo put it ns low ns $20,000,- 000, but thore ia tho best suthority for stating that, about 7 o'clock on Wednesdsy night, Gen. Hilliouss telegraphed that Lie had expended very noatly $25,000,~ 000, Tt hiss also becn discoverod that Gen, Hilliouse w8 not authorized to buy bonds to an unlimited ex- tent. o waa Instructed Lo stop tho purchases when a cortain contingency wea roachod, It is known that this contingency WAS THE ¥XPENDITORE OF $15,000,000 of greenbacks, Very nearly the wholo of this amount had beon gobbled by the street by 3 o'clock, Wednes- sy, and henco the annoancement that the Treasury had stopped buying, Strenuous efforts have been made to-day tolearn whothior this amount was part of tho 44,000,000 resorvo fund in tho Tressury, Gen. Hill- houso declinos to say whother it {a or not, and the natursl fuferenco is that it wea a part of tho $44,000,- 000 reserve, There were no moro auspensions, or rumors of ms- ‘pousion, to-day, although thers was apparently wido- sproad foeling on the sireet that A GENERAL GUSPENSION OF LARGE DANKING HOUSES 18 inovitabl, unless Governmout affords additionsi ald of & more substantial character than {t haa hitherto furnished, About 3 o'clock the followug private dis- patch waa received from Washington by a Wall stroot broker: # Bocrotary ichardson sa; a for i bauks to BT TWHRCE Paymebta OF SarEees, It s been rumorad_{his mornmg that the Prosiden Liaw been ndvised $o call an extra sesslon of Gongraas, In rogard to the matter of ADDITIONAL mELY, tho following private diupatch recoived at a late hour effoctually sottlos {lint fquestion : “Tho Attornoy-Gonoral hiod o conferonce with Secro- tary Richardson relative to tho financial crisis, Tha opinlon of tho Attorney-Genoral was saliclted as to tho power of tho Becrotary to redeom 740 bonds duo Jan, 1, Without the yiving of au apinton, tho confor- encd ended. ‘The act of March, 1660, known as an act to streugthen public credit, otd,, saya: *But nono of d intoreat-bearing obligatious not airendy matured 1 bo rendorod Of paii bofors maturiy. unlens. at such timea aa the Uniled Sintos notes shiall bo con- vartiblo fnto coln, at the optfon of tho holder, or un- Tos at auch Hmes aa bonds of tho United’ States, Learlug o lower rato of intorcst than bouds to be To- doctmed at par, bo aold at par in coln,' ¥rom thla it would apposr that tho Secretary cannot now rodeem bonds duo in 1874, TIE DANKS MADE THEID OLEARANCES sit right this morning, but as they are poylng out very fow greenbacks, thoy aro virtually Ina stato of aunpension, Thin atate of aifairs ownnot be prolonged for any groat length of time, AN INOIDENT 0¥ TIE DAY, While 8 roportor waa talking to-day with tho Oashler of a avings bink which Lus not as yet availed it uelf of tho sixty-daya rule, o doposttor who is a large manufacturer, ontored for the purpose of drawiug 1,000 with which topay off his employes, Tho Casliler asked him 1f o could not walt a fow days, astho bank found it imposatble o collect greonbacks from its bank of cloaranco, Tho dopositor, on belng sssured that the bank was sound, aud that delsy would be n great accommodation, conseated to put off his mon for a dsy or 4wo, and left, TRE GLOOM OF THE DAY, Further than tho well-sottlod fact, that the Tressury had declined to make furthor purchnses of bonds, thero was nothing caloulatod to depress, Tho streot ‘was encouraged from t1mo to tme by the unoficial an- nouncoment that purchaacs would bo resumed, but theso favorable stories do mot serve to dlspol tho dopression which hos scttlod upon all, Happily there was not oven a whispor that the Block Exchango would opon its doors, Tho wise Governing Committee, backed by tho universal sentimont of tha preas, kopt ita doors closed, Olearing-ouso banka ro- fused positively todo more than cortify lrge chocks small amounts could bo casily drawn, but if a man wanted a fow thousands, snd could not giv sntinfacto- £y proof thnt o needed it for legitimato busincns pur- poscs, lie would linvo to bo contont with & cortification of tho bani's indebtedness to bim, REMORSELEAS, The banks heeded no fudividusl ploss, but, doter- minal, they set thoir facos agolast Sndividunla for the gencral good. This served toencourage, At the samo timo tho announcement of Richordson to Vermilyo, that Governmont would not anttcipato the payment of ntereat on tho bonds of 1874, crented a doprossion and discontentmont, On this announcement, Prestdonts of baoks freoly oxpressed tho opinion that thoy MUST COMDINE BTILL FURTHER to protect thomsolvos, and eroakars assortod that such declsion must necossarily forco private bankers into tomporary suspenston, This declsion of the Sccretary ronderod the monsure of rollof adopted by tho Cloar- ing-Houso yosterday by the colloction and sal of bonds, practically noporative, While they might bnve colloctod bonds from among thomaolves, therd wea no purchasor for them tho Governmont liad practically susponded, THE TREARURY GOLD RALE, 100, wen postponad ; and this, with news fron othor clties, holped to ronder the street morbid but inactive, This fnsction s a necesslly, Every movemont thus far for rolfof by the Clearing-House Assoclation, Block- Bosrd, or Government, has nocessardly docroasod busie ness, and the consequenco is that thero is no fuol for tho flamo of tho panic to foed on, After tho day had worn ftself out, snd no further fallures had been afinounced, tho feoling becamo approciably improved, Thor was not & rumor about & banking-houso or banker ; and the panic-makorn— and thero are not a fow auch who doponded on a gen- cral conflogration for thelr profits—returncd home disgusted. THE PINAL nESULT of tho day and the panto fs, that tho whola mattor has been taken out of tho hands of thoso auperficial peoplo who aro readily oxcltod, and control evouts as far os thoy ato controllablo, Tho managememont of affairs i now in the hands of s more sblo and serious cluss, who are the hoad snd front of our most substantial benks, Theso hava loft privato bnkera to shift for themsclyes, Two or threo ko Joy Cooko & Co,, Olows & Co,,and Fisk & Hatch overloaded with doubtful ratlway securitios, bave suc- cumbed, Howea & Macy are strong etill, and, retaln- ing tho confidenco of their dopositors, hiave mado & ‘wise susponsion, which will probably enablo them to Tesume within o weck, As for the rost, we must awalt to-morrow, The uncasiness has now oxtonded to COMMEROLAL QINOLES} especially to shippors of grafn and other produce, who are compolled fo accept bills of cxchange. Theso {hoy cannot convert into precubacks, and honco thero 18 danger that the immenso volumoof brondstuffs which {a pouring into thia city from the West, and tho cotton and sugar comng from tho South will bo do- falnod hero for want of avalable funds to send them abroad, whore a ready markot and good prices await them, This phaso ot tho financial rovulsfon is just beginning to be felt, Unlesa rollef s moon obtained, ordora for, consignmonts from tho West and South will s00m censo altogetlicr. At the Produce Exclango mat~ tors ara very dull, and what littlo busincss fa trans~ acted 1s done gpon a strictly cash baals, Prices aro all tonding downward, snd many products aro salable only AT LOWER PRIOES, The exlsting mouetary troubles exerciss a depross- ing offect upon partics who have purchased stuff to ar- rive, Thoy contriva to receive and pay for it, though with great difficulty, Merchonta aro very cautlous, and will not sell to any party without first astisfying themselvos of hts ability to pay promptly. Ono of the members of the Governing Committea of the Btock ‘Excliange, after requeating that his name should be ‘withbiold, eaid last evouing that tho Committeo were greatly roturded in thelr offorts to socuro a sottlement botween memders of tho Exchango by the conduct of Freeman & Dovis and Osborn & Chapin, JAY GOULD'S DNOKENS, who seemn (o bo at the bottom of every tronsnction that s talten place during tho pano, It 1 hoped that within o fow doys the needed rellef will bo obiained, elther by tho shipment hero of coin from abroad, or by tho Issuanco of short-time notes by ono or mors leading bankers, THE PROFOBAL OF THE ATOOK EXODANGE Committeo to the Clearing-Iouso, that bauke accept certified checks of members of the Stock Exchiange in Meu of groonbacks, and thus enablo the Exchaugoto open, was not favorably received by a number of tho Bank Presidents, on the ground that any bank cerlify- ing » chock became rosponsible for ita payment, and It would be countetl against it as » Liability, THE OLEALING-IIOUAE ABBOOIATION held no meoting to-day, but the Governing Comrittes wan engaged in -issulng tho second installment loan cortificatos, The total issue hos reached $17,009,000, BUL-TREABURED UILLEOUSE #5y8 ho has not recelved any information of the future of Government it the purchaso of bonds, 1t isknown that a large amount of bonda are on the way hore from the country-bauks, to bo converted into greenbacks, and this frightons tho Government, TaE ofrrLow OF CURRENCY to the Weat and South atill continues unobated. Tho Adams Express ia sending $1,600,000 daily, whilo re- colving for the account of Now York only about $600,- 000, Tho United States Express Company iu sending out about $800,000 daily, recelving only a smalt amount, Tho American Express sonds a much larger amount than usual, whils its recelpta aroemall, In most instances, tho amount sont by individuals ranges from §20,000 to $30,000.
