to find him position, and, in the mean
time, requested him to arrange certain doc

which lay his little fortune of about 5000

day he found note from his friend, saying
that he had been tempted by demon, that
he had borrowed his money and jewels, and

where he would make fortune for
both. 81 have made an exact memo

LONDON, May 16.-A Manchester cor :
respondent Of the Times says that strong
impression prevails that the recent out
RACES attributed to the striking cotton op.
eratiyes were not perpetrated by them,
but by the lower populace Of Blackburn
and neighborhood, who are notorious for
rufiAnism and have taken advantage Of
the present ferment for their own pur-
poses. At Preston, Accrington and other
towns strict watch Is kept against an in-
Aur Of this olsss from Blackburn.
COMPROMISE INFECTED.
BLACKBURN, May 16.-Negotiations
have been proceeding during the day be.
tween the representative masters and op.
eratiyes which resulted SO favorably that
1t Is believed settlement will be reached
tomorrow. The conditions Of the settle.
ment are that the operatives throughout
the district are to work three months at
a reduction Of 10 per cent, the mills run
ming full time. The wages are to be raised
at the end Of three months 1.-THE trade il
materially improved.
The Ifnes says the recent advance in
the price Of consols Is partly due to the
purchases for the July dividend In con.
sequence OF the declining discount rates
and the scarcity OF commercial paper.

The Queen will shortly inspect the
