FINANCE AND TRADE,
Orvion or PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
WEDNESDAY, Sept. 29, 1869. 4
The enormous business done in gold
last Friday is still unsettled, and it may
take another day before a complete set
tlement can be had, meanwhile matters
became more complicated by the heavy
decline in stocks and bonds, deliveriesi
can not be promptly effected on account
of the large balances locked up in the
gold clearings. To-morrow it is ex
pected regular calls will be made at the
different boards, and business will take
its usual course. For gold, it is almost
certain that lower quotations will ensue
from the inability of the bull clique
to raise margins enough to carry gold
up. Just as soon as the timid bears,
who escaped the last panic in gold, have
covered their contracts, and the pressing
remittances have been made, the de
tnand for gold in a legitimate way will
cease, and the course of speculation will
naturally tend towards lower quota
tions, assisted by the arrival of gold
frotu Europe, the Government sales
and the anticipation of the- Noveinber
interest. By glancing over the stock
list it is selfevldent that the same clique
who carried gold up, (or rather carried
their oponents,) were also the principal
supporters of the stock market, for cer
tain special stocks. The same old
clique that managed Erie, North West,
Ohio and Mississippi, Reading and
Michigan Southern, were the movers in'
gold, and although successful in the
latter their profits were lost again, and
more in addition on their favorite stocks,
in which they were unable to carry any
longer when the banks asked for more
, margins.
Government bonds have maintained a
fair price yet, but do not seem to have
reached the lowest point. Investors are
holding off, and from the Interior, few
orders to sell could be effected. Any
further weakening of the price must de
press their value in large proportions,
as they will soon be manipulated by
large dealers in order to get stocks at as
low figures as possible; it should also
not be overlooked that the panic so far
has not affected the money market
the interior, except in Chicago, where
grain speculation has undergone a
similar course as gold and stocks in New
York. A lower standard of all values
is likely to follow this great decline in
stocks, and the trade of the Country
will then be in a healthier condition.
Money comparatively easy in our
local inarketa,'-...buts banks do not • dis
count except for their customers. •

was decided that it was the duty of the
bank to make the attempt, even at some
sacrifice. The bank assumed tha clear
ing movement in the usual manner and
received in payment of balance a very
large amount of gold and currency. It .•
was necessary to restore a large portion
of those amounts to the dealers ' or wide
spread disaster would have followed.
To do this tne bank was forced
to depart from the rule of receiving all
balances before paying any', and went
on paying dealers a portion of the bal
ance on their statements and reserving a
safe margin, where practicable, and
trusting to the dealers to make good
any over payment on their final settle
ments. This was the course plersued
on Friday and Satuiday. On Saturday -
a Committee was appointed at an infor
mal meeting of the dealers to conferwith
the directors, who went into an investiga
tion extending through Saturday and
Sunday, on the plan to declare nine deal.
era rejected from the clearing, and as
sume the rest as good, the only basis of
settlement they deemed practicable.
The bank acted on this in paying dealers
on Monaay. The emergency of the set
tlement with the Clearing House of the
banks on Monday and Tuesday, was pass
ed by transferring to the Committee of
the. Clearing House a sufficient amount to I I
secure the balance due the bank. The ! I
bank has now in its control, !after settle
ment with the Clearing House Bank, not
far from the amout of its capital and
surplus with which to liquidate the deal
er's statements, as soon as can be ascer
tained what is due from the bank to the
dealers and from the dealers to the bank.
It is the expectation that these results
can be approximated to , clay,and from all
the evidence now accessible we believe
the bank to be solvent and able to pay all
its debts. No complications exist at
present, except in our dealers' state
ments. The Bank has not tailed or sus
pended; it has paid all its obligations as
stated. It paid 'Mondays obligations at
the Clearing House in gold at par, and
on Tuesday in one million in gold and
say $1,300,000 in securities.
[Signed] .H.'H. BENEDICT,
September 28, 1869. President.
The Committee of twenty appointed by
the Gold Exchange worked steadily on
the statements of dealers since 4P. M.
yesterday, and at 1 P. al. only two state- ,
meats remained to be received, those of i .
Smith, Gould & Martin . and Ktiicker- '
backer & Co. The net result so far \ as2,„=,
certained is that the dealers' are sli
with gold, but the Exchange Clearing
House have $10,000,060 of gold which
Smith, Gould & Martin are . offering to
sell them at 135. There appears no doubt
but that the Committee will succeed in
effecting the clearing on Friday's busi
ness, the settlement being made on a
basis determined upon yesterday. The
difference between 135 and the actual
price will remain to be adjusted
between the dealers themselves. At 3:45
the Committee of twenty reported to tae'
Gold Room,in executive session,that they
had referied the making up of a state
ment from the tickets of Smith, Gould &
Martin to prominent accountants, and
requested to be relieved from further
duty. The report was• accepted and it
was agreed that the transactions of Fri
day be settled. The Ex-Clearing House
and Board then adjourned till to-morrow.
The President of the Gold Room has
been served with an injunction, granted
on the application of Smith Gould, Mar
tin ..ii'Co., restraining him from selling
gold on their account. According to
rule, the following results ion was passed
by the New York Exchange: Resolved,
That the members of the N. Y. Stock •
Exchange. deal in gold in long room
a
Ile' such a time as the Governing Com
mittee can effect a plan for establishing
a Gold Room under the direction of this '
Association. The Stock Exchange. later
in the day, passed a resolution to deal in
gold is the Hall as of old, at open board
of stock brokers; dealings to: begin to
morrow at 10 o'clock. • .
A meeting of a joint committee repre
senting the New York City Bank, Clear- _
nag House and Now York Gold Exchange
Bank, was held in the parlor of the Clear- .
ing House. At this meeting the Gold
Exchange Bank, which made no clear
ings to.. •_ , proposed to the Clearing
House c.. mittee that the other batiks
should '. dvance 20 per cent. on the
$2,500, ii ) gold paid by the pold Ex
change Bank yesterday• and the day
before in the settlement of their
indebtedness at the Clearing House
which would enable them and the Gold
Exchange Bank to pay their entire in
debtedness. The effect of this would be
to release the other securities held by
the Committee and give the. Gold Ex
change Bank about $300,000 in currency.
Several banks had agreed to furnish the
means to carry out this proposition, when
it was learned that the bank had been
put into the hands of a receiver, conse
quently the negotiations were stopped.
The injunction was granted by Judge Car
doso. on the application of a person
claiming to be a creditor of the bank.
The application for a permanent Re
ceiver is returnable next Monday.
Meantime Augustus 'Brown, of the law
firm of Brown,Hall & Vanderpool, has
been appointd temporary Receiver.
The associated banks agreed, in response
to the application of the Committee of
twenty, to keep opeh to certify checks, •
&c., until four o'clock this afternoon,
and, if necessary, until sixo'clock at the
Stock Exchange.
The failures of Charles A. Meigs & Co.,
Julian & Co. and of Fulton,`Treat * Cox
were reported; stocks wore sold Out for
them under the rules. - The latter firms
are paying differences, but were unable
to take the stocks they purehased yes
terday. It is believed that both susnen
alone will prove but temporary. The ,
name of Lockwood & Co. was used free- •
ly on the street in the afternoon as hav
ing failed, and it was finally stated -
that they made an assignment of
their affairs to Capt. John R; Acker.
This house has for years been one of the
wealthiest in the street and one of the
most influential. Their exact position on
the market is not known, although they
were credited with holding large athounts
of Pacific Mail, Michigan Southern,
North Western and St. Paul. Oit the
other hand it is, said they have:, been
short of New York Central for the past.
