LONDON, June 16.-Lord +. Fitzmaurice stated
In the House of Commons to-day that the Govern
ment had received dispatch from Cairo from
which there was reason to believe that the messen-
gers who reported the fall of Berber were untrust
worthy. lie added, however, that General Ste
phenson, commander of the English forces In
Egypt, and General Sir z. Wood now believe that
Berber has fallen. Mr.. Gladstone promised to make
statement to the House concerning the Egyptian
Conference next Monday The Right Hon. Robert
Bourke, Conservative member for Lynn Regis, gave
notice that he would ask a question on Thursday
as to what measures the Government proposed to
take for the protection of Upper Egypt.

been received of the fall of Berber.
The Earl of Kimberly stated that the negotiation

Der of Liberals threaten to secede from the ranks Of

The PdH MGU Gazette, in discussing the proposed
basis for the deliberations of the Egyptian Confer
ence, says: "1he Daily Ncws admits that the Brit
ish occupation of Egypt is to be limited that
England is to advance ES,000000 to the Egyptian
treasury, and that international institution is
to be formed to receive the moneys hypothecated
for the debt and all the revenues of the
country. France objects to Engands advanc-
ing the fs,OOO,OOO and wishes to refer
the question to the conference" The Gazette ex-
presses the belief that outside of the Cabl-
net will put up with these terms 1t also
says that England, on June r. withdrew the pro-
posals that had been made to Turkey to send troops
to the Soudan, and informed Turkey that If she
fused to accept the invitation to be present at the
conference as it was sent, the conference would
meet without her.

lRI TELsaRAPH TO THE TRTBUSEl
Troy, June 16.-The threatened suspension of all
the knit goods mills in the State Is not accomplished
fact for the that the Manufacturing Association
of New York. recently in session at CohOes has not
ceived replies from mill owners which would warrant
the action contemplated There three propositions
submitted to the mill for stoppage of 80
days, one for stoppage of 80 days, and one for a
stoppage Of e-haf the production for so days.
Cohoes manufacturer said to-dayi we must sell at
cost now, if we cannot sell in any other way. The
jobbers are making much mischief in taking advantage
of the fact that have surplus goods hand 1t is
fact that the mills at Cohoes, Amsterdam, Philmont,
Bennington, Hudson, Schenectady Utica, etc,

ducng the quantity OF production about oDe-halt The

are producing 64,S00 shirts or drawers daily, OF
1854, 800 monthly. The usual annual production In
knit goods in the State may be estimated at over 500
100000 retail figures, the estimate being made more
on cheap goods than on high priced goods"
Another manufacturer says: 8 A great many Of the
owners of knitting mills think that temporary shut
down is the best thing under the circumstances. The
shut down will curtail the quantity going on the
running next winter, IL purchasing of goods will
be continued until late, and 1t will enable the mill
owners when they do 10 maintain the present scale

and in this way will the pilgrims from the Far West,
