bezzlement the evidence shows that the plaintiff
had been in the employ Of the defendant for q
period OF % years, and for long time confden-
ta clerk that during the last three years OF that

loans OF small sums OF money, which amounted in
that he Kept memorandum book in which he

Lucette Meyers Declared . Liar and Dis
charged.
Before Judge Barnard.
Lucette Meyers, the detained witness in the
Goodrich murder case, was discharged from Gus
tody yesterday. She has made so many state
ments concerning the AFFAIR, some to the effect that
she knew all about the murder, and others deny
ing any knowledge OF 1t whatever, that the Dis
rict Attorney has come to the conclusion that she
is unworthy OF belief Mr.. Britton stated to the
Court yesterday that the woman had been brought
to him by the Superintendent OF Police some time
since with the assertion that she would
leave this vicinity II she we're not locked
mp She pretended to know a great deal
about the case and had made q very remarkable
statement which, however, he did not believe.
Then she had made so many contradictory state
ments that she would be useless as q witness, for
the simple reason that no jury would believe her.
He himself did not believe word she said save
her last statement, that she was entirely ignorant
concerning the case. Mr.. Britt0n therefore asked
to have her discharged.
Judge Barnard directed that an order dlscharg-
ing her from custody be entered. This was done
and Lucettc was again free woman. She lett the
court room with smile OF satisfaction.

Nine blast furnaces In the Mahoning Valley, Ohio,
have blown out and six remain In operation.
The fall in the prices OF dry goods is OF course
very acceptable to the labOring classes but slight
reduction In the prices OF provisions, particularly
In butter, would help them materially jHst at this
time.
The Phoenix Iron Works, at Phnnixville, Pa,
have reduced the wages OF their workmen from
i've to TWENTY-FIVE per cent.
The Woodruff Iron Works, at Hartford. Conn.,,
employ 125 men, and are running full time ON full
wages, with no prospect OF reduction in either.
The icemen OF Coxsackie, on the Hudson River,
have been cut down to 81 SO per day, nine hours,
time.
The mills at Great Falls, Stranord county, N. H..
are running on three fourths time. 1t is said that
more cloth was sent from Great Falls to New York
last week than for four weeks previous.
When the Corning Iron Works, at Troy, N. T.,
proposed to their employees to continue work during
the winter at reduction OF wages, all but eight
men agreed to submit, on the principle that work
ing for low wages was better than no work at all.
These eight men, however, induced the others to
strike, and the result was the shutting down OF
the works, and tine proprietors say that they will
