A BIG sw1ND11NG ARRANGEMENT.

BosToN Mass, Oct. 5.-A special from
Providence says the failure of Emil Dahlhyl-
more & Co., jewelers., of Cincinnati, has
caused much excitement among the manu-
featuring jewellers of this city and Attic
borough, who appear to have become in
volved to the extent of $50, 600 to $50, 900.
From the statements of those who
are in position to know, in
Guiding the manager of Dun's Mercantile
agency, it appears that the whole affair is
deliberately planned swindle. On July %
last, Dahlhylmore called at Dun's Mercantile
agency and made a showing to the effect
that he was worth from $50, 900 to $50, 900
in stocks and fixtures, and owed between
$4,000 and $4,000, which was his
whole Indebtedness. He promised
to substantiate the statement but
failed to do so. 1t has always been surmised
that he was connected with Charles j. d
Joseph Steinan, who recently failed, but he
made positive denial. Since it has been
ascertaiued the denial was untrue. Among
those III this city of whom he bought goods,
and who have sent them, are j. c.. Richard
son, Atwood 81 Caldwell, Vim. Hamilton g.
Co., Carey d Williams, John McCloy, Chas.
bitt 81 Cameron. He ordered largely from
others, who fortunately have not sent the
goods He bought mostly plated goods. 1t
was reported to have been discovered lately
that he would buy goods heavily here and
almost simultaneously sell them out west at
10 per cent. below cost. One of the heaviest
losers reported is John Etsenperger, of At
tleborough.
