BANK SITUATION NORMAL.
Nothing Notable Transpired Here at the
Expiration of the Holidays.
'(Whosoever had it framed up that
there was to l anything of notably
phtiwiUoimI character on the opening of
Atfrl banks yesterday morning,
on the cessation pi the seven weeks (SI
"legal holidays,"- was woefully mistaken
la his estimate of the communal bsl-
snc and controlling good senee of the
people of this city. ' .
I here was no vUlble sign of anything
even approaching undue excitement or
minimal imeront In the matter, The
banks opened up at the customary hour
snd were prepared for any and all
emergencies If any were to materialise;
but the day's record at the four insti
tutions was of the mot ordinary type,
tho only notable excess (or aocess) be
ing that at 4 o'clock In the afternoon
when all doors 'wwe closed, the deposits
at each bouse had exceeded the with
drawals for the day; and one additional
feature of the day was the utter ab
sence of any Interested or extraordinary
Inquiries relative to the situstion, at
any of the banking windows throughout
the city.
It only goes to show that Astorians
have implicit and ifully warranted faith
In their banks and. are not seeking to
hamper them nor the businesses of the
city. And, by the wsy of winding up
an agreeable tale of the kind, it may be
said timt the Portland banks were
treated with the same (rood gumption
and that things are rs$onally quiet np
there. ... ...-.

A lively Time-
On Sunday afternoon. In the vicinity
of ihe football grounds, a sensational
scene was enacted which was the "talk
of tho town" yesterday. Julius Wllberg,
who was riding in his buggy, aecom
panied by Cbas. Wise, was attacked by
a young man. named Ansted, and se
verely katcn. Ansted bad a grievance
againfc Wllberg which, to all accounts,
was well founded, and meeting him near
the ball grounds, attacked him. Drag-(
ging mm irom tne veuicie, uie young
man proceeded to pummel his victim,
and it mat only the propt appearance of
Officer Ilouhgton that prevented more
serious results. Wllberg was removed
from the crowd that gathered around
him, all of whlob sympathized with the
assailant. It was a lively scene, for a
time, but on the removal 0 Wllberg
peace againt reigned. Those who wit
nessed the aonftult, and knew the cir
cumstances lesding tip to it. are unanl
mous In the declaration that it wus jus
tillable. No arreata were made nor is
it thought that there will be. Wilberg
presents a battered appearance showing
the pugulisuo abilities of his assailant.
