REPORTED SUICIDE OF THE DISTINGUISHFD GERMAN GEOGRAPHICAL SCHOLAR—TALK IN GOTHA AND BEBLIN. [From the Evening Telegram of Yesterday.) SPECIAL CABLE DESPATCH TO THE TELEGRAM. BEuLIN, Oct. 3, 1878, It is to-day generally believed in Germany that Dr, August Heinrich Petermann, the most able geographer of the age, who is reported to have died last Friday from a stroke of apo- plexy, committed suicide by hanging. The re- port causes no little excitement here. Every- thing, it is believed, will be done by the fmends of the deceased. to prevent any investigation as to the truth of the matter being made, as they natu- Tally object to the scandal incidental to sucn a pro- ceeding. THE QUESTION DISCUSSED AT GOTHA. The Berlin Boersen Courter, one of the most in- fuential papers published in this capital, main- tains in its present issue that the affair is a topic of general conversation at Gotha, the place where the great geographer recently died. A legal investigation, it suggests, should be made into the Matter, so that if the accusation of self-murder against Petermann, now 60 Ireely discussed, be ‘false, then the investigation will clear his memory of the stain. A FAMILY OF SUICIDES. 1t1s maintained that there is an hereditary taint of insanity im this branch of the Petermann family, for the father and brother of the deceased com- mitted suictde by hanging. It ts therefore natar- ally argued that this mania for self-destruction 1s transmitted from father to son. UNHAPPY FAMILY RELATIONS. Another reason, and perhaps the most cogent one, Suggested for the Doctor’s having com- mitting suicide is that his. relations with his family were not happy. It is maintained on good author- ity that no little estrangement existed between him and several of his relatives for many years Past, and that no reconciliation was effected up to the time of Petermann’s deatn. SCOTLAND'S FINANCIAL CRASH. THE CAUSES OF THE FAILURE OF THE CITY OF GL\BGOW BANK AND THE RESULTS— WHAT HAS BEEN ANTICIPATED AND DIS COUNTED, [BY CABLE TO THE HSR\LD,] Loxpon, Oct, 3, 1878. ‘The Times, in its financial article yesterday morn- ing, says:—“The City of Glasgow Bank haa 133 branches, It bas paid a progressively increasing dividend for several years past until it reached twelve percent, It would be incorrect tv say that the di aster was unexpected.

Ho did not think that tne price of government bends abroad could be much influenced by the fuilure. In bis opinio: oply way the suspentica can affect us ie by a large number of fatlures in England and consequent panic, Mr. Stewart, president of the United States Trust Company, thoughs the suspension would prove a great ealumity to Great Britain, He said that very tew bank- ers bore kept large balances abroad, and thoaght that banking houses would call in such deposits sub- Ject to draits, and thereby secure thomseives against tbe approaching panic, The money market here may be tightened, because houses that do a large foreign business will undoubtedly send all the money they can spare to the otber side, in order to check the an- ticipated run. If a panic occurred ne did not be- Heve that it would affect English government bonds in Kagland, because they are mostly held ag 4 per- manent investment, In bis opinion thore would not be a heavy importation of United States bonds, re- quiring the exportation of gold to Europe, Another banker was of a diferent opinion. He thought that if a general panic should be caused by this tnilare in Great Britain it might seriously affect our exports, and we might be forced to export large quantities of gold to meet heavy importations of gov- ernment bonds, Another banker said that this failure could not have happened at @ better time for this country, as our merebants and bankers here have been taugnt a lesson by the effects of the panic, ana consequently operate with more economy and caution.
