..oseington manag if these
two banks, was as much astounded as any
body else. He had gone up to the office
of. Governor Shepherd to attend 'to some
business in connection with the executive
office that he had so recently vacated, but
ad /merely taken a seat when a .messen
ger from the bank arrived and whispered
to him the fact that the New York and
Philadelphia houses had suspended. He
hurried immediately to the bank and Jay
Cooke ;Sr Co. closed. A card was hung
up in the windbw announcing the sus.
pensiori. The FirSt National continued
to transact business for an hour or more,
but it was evident a run - was commencing
and an officer of the police was called in
to clear oat the crowd standing in front
of counters. Pax books were extended
across the desks, end In-a moment the
clerks disappeared and the' officer firmly
insisted on every one leaving the premi
ses. When this was accomplished the
doors were closed. Mr. Knox, COmp
troller of the 'Currency, being informed
of the condition
,of affairs at this bank
immediately walked across the street and
had an interview r with the officers. The
result was the appointment of Mr. Eirrin
L. Stanton as receiver. The crowd con
tinued to grow, but no definite informa
tion concerning the c)udition of , either
institution could be obtained. Forthwith
there was a rush made for several other
banks supposed to be in some way affect-,.1
ed by these snsp4sions. Especially was
this the case with the sairings banks:-The
National Savings Bank availed itself of a
chartered privilege of requiring thirty
days' notice from its depositors add thus
effectually checked the threatened run.
The Freedman's Savings- Bank: and
the Washington City Savings Bank, how
ever, continued to meet all demands
upon them, and all day Thursday and
yesterday there were lung lines of depos
itors before the doors of these institu
tions. To-day the excitement is less in
tense, and it seems quite evident that the
storm has spent its force.
The interest in affairs here was less in
tense than that in the news from New
York and Philadelphia. All day long,
ever since the first Crash, crowds have
been hanging around the bulletin-bards
of the telegraph ofikes and as one suspen
sion after another has been announced
the excitement has seemed tb grow more
intense.
It was announced late last night that
to-day the Assistant Treasurer at New_
York would be instructed to purchase ten
millions of bondf. This is to satisfy a
general demand for 114 from the•Treasu
7, and is the only method by which the .
Treasury Department can be of any as
sistance to the banks. Banks now hold-

there are very important events transpir
