SENTENCE FOR CONSPIRACY. -THE KING L. THOMAS

REFS, HOWELL; REFS, AND WM. BILE.

and were convicted last year far conspiring to defraud their
creditors, were sentenced by Mr. Justice BAILEY. Thos.

FURTHER DESTRUCTION of PROPERTY
IN SPITALFIELDS—(I HIS DAY.)

The number of additional looms attacked and the silk
cut out last night is stated at from 90 to 100.
The committee of delegates from the men are now en-
gaged in further discussion with the masters on the sub-
ject of the wages, and the result of their deliberations is
not yet known.
One of the manufacturers, Mr. Gilbert, sent down this
morning a message, that he should give full prices for the
work in hand for the future, and it is folly expected that
others will follow. It appears that some masters have
lately lessened their rate of one half.
Deputies have been sent off to Manchester and other
places, for the purpose of inducing the weavers to pursue
the same course as those in London.

The streets in Spitalfields are crowded, and in the event
of no determination being come to to-day, it appears to be
firmly the intention of the weavers to act in a more gene-
ral way than heretofore in the destruction of silk. Some
of the masters sent down to their men to-day to get away
their silk, but this was prevented by a large body of men
standing as sentinels at the doors of the houses in which
the weavers resided. Indeed, such a regular system has
been adopted, that it is impossible that any silk can be got
back from the weavers.

Some of the masters have resolved to give up the trade
altogether.
