| | FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL The £ky Brighter and the Horizon Promising. THE STOCK EXCHANGE. The Reopening to Take Place on Tuesday. PRICES ADVANCING. Woney Loosening—Loans Made on Easy Terms and a Good Feeling All Round, DYING HOURS OF THE PANIC. Gold En Route to America—What Is To Be Done? WALL STREET, } Sarunpay, Sept. .27—6 P. M. Amuch better feeling prevailed to-day than has Deen noteworthy during the crisis, There have Deen no more failures. The banks throughout the country maintain their strength. Money has come imto Wail street by thousands, was loanea for 7 per cent interest, and at the close shows a disposition to be made useful. Those who were hoarding are unlocking. The Stock Exchange has determined to reopen on Tuesday. The majority of settlements between brokers have been effected, and there ap- pears to be nothing either of local er general in- formation calculated to continue the old distrust or evoke anew one, Weare getting bravely out of the dificulty. CONSERVATISM. is showing its hand everywhere. The banks have stood bravely by each other and tne public, and to-day, doubtless, hold securities and currency equal to ail the requirements of the hour. Fa- maticism has been held in check, fear circum- scribed, “runs” prevented and danger averted, ‘The country is safe. New York has set an ex- ample that has everywhere been followed, and in that example there has been found all the ele- ments of peace. Even the weak have not per- manently gone down, for we only hear of pruden- tial suspensions; while, on the other hand, those who were strong have given a.color, a magnetism, Batrength to the situation that commands all praise. It is not now possible to gointo details, but when THE STORY OF THIS CRISIS is fully written, and the relationships between some of the banks of New York and those of the rest of the country are described; when tie strug- gies and tne sacrifices for the public financial good appear, it will be found that a spirit of patriotism “has been exhibited and a caution worthy of the situation has been developed that is worthy of the atmost tribute. In fact, moderation in its most generous atti- tudes appears to have been studied not only by our Gduciary institutions, but by individuals—by the brokers of the Stock Exchange, the merchants and exporters; indeed, by every one identified with the movement of capital, and the result appears now, at the close of this eventful week, in a victory over one of the most serious combatants with which the country has had to deal since the close of the war. We must not, however, shut our eyes to the fact that THE CONQUEST {s only temporary; Congress when it meets must follow up the retreat. While the people and their institutions may always be counted upon in a great emergency, the exigencies of a Republic are continually presenting new phases for the con- sideration of the law givers, and demanding from them new powers. What we now need, according to the tenor of events, is elasticity for our cur- tency, and he who provides a successful pian whereby a recurrence of present evils may bein the future avoided will win a proud place in the financial memory of his country. The crisis from which we are emerging grows out of causes pecu- Har tothe hour. It is the result of war. It has no connection with any preceding condition. It is the upshot of misapplied values; of misdirected strength; of money used in shallow channels; of luxury and extravagance in social life; of ambl- tion to become suddenly rich; of the concentration of one-man power; of the watering of stocks and Imposition on the public; of blind obedience to political gamesters who play the rdle of dema- goges; of indifference to public events, and, finally, of that ease and pliability of public sentiment which, in its supreme content, has become crimi- pally careless. As has been said before, THE GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION is yielding to the conquering elements of internal resource. Money that might have been wasted like water—distributed just as grain is sowed, but without a harvest—has been husbanded. The banks have refused to let it go, and whatever hardship may have been felt to the individual thereby is about to Bring its reward to the public. We are a stride nearer “out of the woods.” When the Stock Exchange closed, it was the signal of test. When it opens on Tuesday, it will doubtless be the beginning of a fervid reaction. Much de- pends on the spirit of the individual mem- bers. Not a man _ there, having the good of the country at heart, should re- fuse to contribuse something in the way of compromise. If settiements are not made kindly, force will induce reaction ad reaction will bring rain, But we hear of no contumaciousness. THE GREAT FIRMS of the street have done their duty. The one re- maining question concerns securities liable to be pola “under the rule.” If this course can be avoided for three or four days, the market will be- some so puoyant as in itself to correct differences. If, on the other hand, sales are forced, a natural advance must be retarded and the worst conse- quences follow. There will be a set-back. To- night, while tnese lines are being written, prices are “jumping” even in open market, as the result only of the mere announcement that the Stock Ex- ehange will be opened. There has been AN ADVANCE of from 5 to 15 per cent. In fact, a leading broker, who for years has measured the possibilities of Wall street, predicts that we have to-day seen the towest prices that will be snown on the Exchange for along time tocome, The undertone is in favor of an advance. Even the short interest desires tt, and unless there is an obstacle interposed we con- Gdently look forward to Tuesday as the turning potnt of this crisis. It commenced in Wall street. The influence has gone around the circle and re- turned to Wall street, and it would not be surpris- ‘ng to find at the last that the hub and centre of the wheel, the very fulcrum of impending disas- ter, depends on the leverage that may be exerted here. We urge, therefore, as a prudential meas- ure, that if the Stock Exchange ts to be opened on ‘Tuesday, ‘ THE GOVERNING COMMITTEE shall suspend for two or three days at the first, nd subsequently as much longer as may be neces- sary, the action of the twenty-fifth bylaw, which provides for the selling out, “under the rule,” of all delinquent securities. Give the market a chance to place itself. Every man ts now on the tookoute, (MANS w ROTH, No. 88 Pine street. for self-protection, If stocks have the quality ot reaction within them let them manifest it, for with this manifestation comes relief and the solution of the problem. The brokers have this matter in their own hands, and the banks are not likely to inter- pose objections. They have been generous thus far, and it is reasonable to suppose they will continue #0 while the interests of trade demand even sacri- fices, It is not the interest of any one that stocks should now decline, So far as the public is con- cerned there is NO MOMENT MORE OPPORTUNR for thong who hayg ready mopey at commang, Great bargains are offering. Currency is wanted and will secure stocks, which in thirty or sixty days will have bounded ten or fifteen per cent. Money 1s loosening, confidence is returning, and al- together the week closes on a condition of affairs, far more hopeiu! than could possibly have been Predicted yesterday. THE STOCK MARKET.

The Mysterious Death of Ann McCabe— A Black Hand and a Large Clot of Blood—The Husband Committed to the Tombs to Await the Decision of the District Attorney. Coroner Kessler investigated yesterday the cause of the death of Mrs. Ann McCabe, of No. 341 East Thirty-third street, who was found dead in her room witn marks of violence on her body. The husband was arrested on suspicion at the time, mainly on the strength of medical testimony. Kate McGibney, who said she lived at a different place, but had slept two nights at the house of the deceased, testified that Mrs. McCabe was ill on Wednesday, when the witness first came to see her; McCabe was at home all day; neither of them were intoxicated, and there was no disagreeable scene between them; deceased smoked a pipe and said she would soon be with her sister, who was dead; on Thursday evening deceased prepared supper as usual; on Friday morning she com- plained o1 her head and said “she could not live with her head much longer; on Friday evening she was dead; deceased was very flighty, and was going, to dance with her head tied up and a pipe in er mouth. Her husband, PUSHED HER BACK INTO THE CHAIR; she did not notice that the hand. of the deceased was all black; could not account for its being black ; was in the house when deceased died; saw Geceased drink Mquor while witness was at the ouse. ° Sarah Mollery, who lived on the floor below, saw deceased on the sofa; she was dead; asked the prisoner why he had notcalied her before; he said she had just died ; did not know whether the habits of the deceased were intemperate or whether she was in the habit of fighting with her husband, The witness would say nothing more, although the Coroner insisted upon knowing the whole truth, and intimated that she knew more than she was willing to tell. Lizzie McDermott, who lived on the same floor, was talking with deceased on Wednesday night; heard no strange noises on Thursday; had heard loud talking,o{ course, in McCabe's rooms; deceased never complained of ili treatment on the part of her husband ; knew nothing more. Ellen Pembroke, who resides in the same house, never heard a noise or quarrel or fight of any kind; Saw the black spots on her hand; never saw tle prisoner drank. Officer Maher testified that some one told him the deceased had been poisoned; found McCabe and Kate McGibney in the room, BOTH UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF LIQUOR; inquired into the case and how ft was that they had called no doctor; Mrs, MoGibney said de- ceased was speechiess all day, and she did not know that there was danger of death; she said deceased bad died om the floor; Lizzie McDer- mott told witness that Ann McCabe was dead in the bed before she was laid on the floor; she also told the witness that she had heard a good deal of fighting, and that McCabe would always begin uarrelling with his wife 48 so@n as his son and jaughter were gone; knew nothing oi the charac- ter of McCabe, Dr. Leo testified that the death of Ann McCabe was the result of violence, in his opinion; exter- Nally found no marks of violence save a b in the dorsal aspect of the right hand; on examining the brain a large clot of extravasated blood was found covering the whole left hemisphere, produc- ing compression. Tne jury, afer being out half arfhour, rendered a verdict that the ‘said woman came to her death by compression of the brain, the result of violence rée- ceived in some manner unknown to the jury, on September 19, at 341 East Thirty-third street,” ‘ne Coroner said he would consult the District Attorney on Monday, and if the Jatter did not in- tend to prosecute this case he wonld discharge the prisoner next week. Femoip, io the Tombs, NEW YORK ‘HERALD, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1873—QUADRUPLE SHEET. PAYMENT OF PERSONAL TAXES. bo a tee New York Property Owners Responding to tne Municipal Call for the Sinews of War—$130,000 for .the Public Treasury. Yesterday was the first day for the payment of the State, county and city taxes on personaly estate for the year 1873, Bills are made out in favor of the Supervisors of the eity and county. ‘The tax includes all assessments except for real estate and on bank stock, and embraces all incorporated manufacturing, insurance, raliroad, steamboat and other companies doing business in the county, a8 well as assessments upon indi- viduals for all personal property and securities. The office of the Receiver is on the first floor of the brown stone building in the City Hall Park, where taxes are payable from eight o’clock in the -morn- ing till two in the afternoon. Last year the tax on bauk stock was made payaple on the same day a8 other personal taxes, This year the bank tax-book is not ready, and the collection is delayed for a few days. There was received yesterday for personal taxes, exclusive of the tax on bank capital about $130,000, against $181,000 last year’ including the bank assessments, This prompt payment of the tax shows that the great body of taxpayers have not been pinched by the Wall street close communion panic, Those who pay this tax before the Ist day of November secure & reduction of their assessment equal to the interest on the amount from the date of payment to the 1st day of December, at the rate of seven per cent per aunam, If payment is not made prior to the 18st of December one per cent is added to the tax, and on the 16th of December another one per cent, by way of penalty for default, Had the bank tax also been receivable yesterday, no doubt the first day’s payments would have tully equalled those of the first day last year. TAXATION FIGURRS, The total valuation of Been in the city as assessed ior taxation for the year 1873 1s:— Real estate. Personal residents, $836,691,980 ‘ai’ belonging “to sa $8184, 965,633 Personal estaie ‘belonging to nou- \lents. 298 Total real and persdnal. The amount to be raised by tember, 1873, at Being for state pu Estimated des of . £07,228 80. — — $28,228,490 57 The rate of taxation for the year is 23, per cent. Some of the largest items of the city and county expenditures are thus estimated:—Interest on county debt, $2,500,000; interest on city debt, $4,500,000; Board of Education, $3,000,000; asy- lums, reformatorics and charitable institutions, 639,550; Department of Charities and Corrections,* $1,460,000; police, $3,201,152 33; street. cleaning, $900,000; Department of Public Works, $1,449,500; Fire Department, bevel a Health De artment, $243,519 19, and Department of Public Parks $495,000. ‘Though the day's receipts amounted to a large figure there was no crowd in the office in spite of the fact that a large portion of the room was occu- pee by artisans employed in improving the ofice urnishing. Gentlemen came in singly or in knots of two or three, and the system of the office en- ables the payment to be made with great celerity and precision, The bank tax will be called for in afew days, The Tax Books—Have They Been Tam- pered Witht—Aldermen McCafferty and Koch Declare That, They Have Been Altered. Ex-Alderman Pinckney and his clerical force have completed the tax books of the First, Second, Fourth, Sixth, “Eighth, Nimth, Tenth, Eleventh, | Tweifth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Nineteenth and Twenty-Second wards, While looking over the Sixteenth ward book yesterday, Aldermen Koch and McCafferty dis- covered that an entire column of figures repre- senting the valuations of the west side of Eighth avenue, from ‘Twenty-third to Twenty-sixth street, had been erased and new figures written over the erasures. They also found erasures and changes elsewhere, and naturally charged that they had been tampered with by some one. ‘he Clerk, General Pinckney, estab- lished the fact that the changes were made in the ‘Tax Commissioner's oftice and not while in his custody. Mr. McCafferty says he is convinced that there has been fraud practised, as the valuatipns upon the west side of Eighth avenue are nearly all below $8,000 per house, while poor tenement houses on First avenue, above Fiity-ninth street, are placed at an average valuation of $10,000, and when the books are completed he says he expects to prove that they have been tampered witi. Among the erasures is the Grand Opera House, that sold for over a million, valued at only $330, per is given as one instance of fraudulent val ation.

The Inquest Concerning the Death of Le Strange—the Prisoner Discharged by Coroner Kessler, Coroner Kessler held an inquest yesterday in re- gard to the death of James Le Strange, who was killed in a scuffle with Patrick Lyons on First ave- nue, near Thirty-flith street, on the 19th of Septem- ber. Lyons is@ young, cadaverous man, with a thin, pale face, high cheek bones and receding forehead, John T. Avery, of 255 East Seventy-seventh street, a dealer in grain and hay, testified that he was an eye witness of the affray; saw a one horse coupe come down with aman whose feet were hanging In the lines, so thut they pulled the horse down on the track; ran to his assistance, together with the prisoner, and tried to disengage him, when he seemed very angry; the man ATTEMPTED TO STRIKE LYONS, but in the attempt he fell, striking the ground, and his face was covered with mud; Le Strange was apparently under the influence of liquor, while Lyons was sober; Lyons tried to raise deceased and to disengage bim from the lines, when de- ceased attempted to strike Lyons; deceased first tried to strike the witness and felt by the force of his own blow, with his face in the mud; deceased followed Lyons on the sidewalk; did not know what transpired there. Garret L. Schuylet, a lumber dealer, of No, 133 East Sixtieth street, thought Le Strange was either drink or crazy at the time, and seemed to want to hit everybody who tried to help him; saw him strike the prisoner; saw Lyons run away and deceased try to strike him, while Lyons put up his hands to defend himself; did not see Lyons strike deceased; did not kuow what caused deceased to tall; deceased was hurt BY FALLING ON THE SIDEWALK, but witness could not say What caused it. Join McGrath, of No. 613 Third avenue, who keeps a liquor store on the corner, said Le Strange got mad because the prisoner and Schuyler wanted vo disentangle him from the lines; deceased got up on the box and fell of; he then rushed around try- ing to strike at everybody: Le Strange followed McGrath, who pushed him back; Le Strange fell and was rendered unconscious. William Burns, of No. 624 First avenue; Adolph Brown, of No. 615 Firat avenue; Michael Freeman, of No, 243 East Thirty-fitth street, and other wit- nesses corroborated the previous statement, ex- onerating Lyons trom all blame. jargaret Strange, widow of aeceased, of No. 338 East Thirty-fifth street, knew of no enmity ex- isting between her husband and Lyons; her hus- band was of an excitable temperam#ne. Peter Le Strange, aged fourteen, son of the de- iW is lather strike the prisoner; Lyons ceased, hit his father once in the face, when he fell back- ward; his father appeared intoxicated, Officer Fallon, who had made the arrest, said Lyons expressed his regret and said he was SORRY FOR WHAT HAD OCCURRED, and that he was trying to help deceased, when the latter struck at him; Lyons had the reputation of @ sober and honest young man, The say rendered @ verdict that “said man came to his death from a fracture oi the akull, re- ceived through being pushed by Patrick Lyons and falling on the sidewalk, September 19, 1873; and we believe the said Lyons pusled deceased in seif- defence, and tully exonerate him from all blame.’ Meanwille he would have to l vasa Kessler mo ers the prisoner, SUICIDE OF A WEALTHY MERCHANT. ce as Samuel C.
