two hundred dollars is a mistake. No such action has been taken. The banks are doing business as usual, except that they have stopped advances on the produce until the eastern banks shall be ready to respond. ### THE CLEVELAND BANKS. CLEVELAND, Sept. 27. There is but little excitement among business men in financial circles in this city over the monetary troubles. A feeling of confidence prevails, and there is scarcely a doubt but what the Cleveland banks will get through all right. The savings banks have adopted the sixty days' notice plan, merely as a precautionary measure. A RESUMPTION. DETROIT, Sept. 27. David Preston & Co, bankers of this city, resumed business to-day after a suspension of two days. ### THE TOLEDO BANKS. TOLEDO, Sept. 27. The banks of this city passed over yesterday in good condition. Several of them are stronger than at any time since the beginning of the run. The single failure of a banking house, Kraus & Smith, has had less effect than was apprehended. IN PHILADELPHIA. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 27.

Many large manufacturing concerns have, with great exertions, raised a sufficient amount of currency to pay full wages to their employes, while other firms have been able to pay only fifty per cent. of the wages due.

At a meeting of the clearing house association a committee was appointed to draft a plan for the issue of loan certificates to be used in the clearing house in settlement of balances. ### THE STOCK EXCHANGE TO BE OPENED TUESDAY. NEW YORK, Sept. 27, 2.45 p. m. The stock exchange will open for business at the usual hour on Tuesday morning. This announcement indicates improved feeling on the street this afternoon, which has been brought about by a generally believed report that Com. Vanderbilt's brokers have to-day effected a general settlement in their heavy stock transactions. Very few transactions this afternoon. The following are the latest street cash quotations: New York Central 86; Lake Shore 64; Western Union 54; Pacific Mail 29; Rock Island 83; C. C. and I. C. 20; Union Pacific 18; Wabash 41. The details of business for opening the stock exchange will be arranged at the meeting of the governing committee Monday morning BANK COMMITTEE REPORT. At a meeting of the bank committee to-day a report was received from the committee to whom was referred the proposition of the committee of the stock exchange. The first suggestion of the latter had been anticipated by the action of the banks and the suggestion that the associate bank should guarantee payment of certified checks to the extent of their associated capital appears to the bank committee impracticable. In answer to another suggestion of the stock exchange committee the banking committee say the proposed modes of relief seem to look exclusively to the convenience and safety of the stock exchange, without comprehending danger and inconvenience involved to the bank. The clearing house committee have decided hereafter not to make public the amount of loan certificates issued. A special from Louisville says the German Insurance, Masonic savings, German Central savings, and Western banks have temporarily suspended. There is no run on other banks. The Louisville banking company has also suspended. AFFAIRS IN CHICAGO. A Chicago special says the Third National bank is reported closed and nothing doing on change. RECEIVER'S REPORT. WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.

If the indebtedness of Jay Cooke & Co. is paid in full its capital stock will be unimpaired. MORE HARD CASH. LONDON, Sept. 27.
