Not the Most Favored.

LONDON, May 1S.-In the House of
Commons this afternoon, Lord
Edmund FitZmaurice, Under Foreign
Secretary, announced that the Gov
ernment regretted to inform the
House tnat the negotiations which
had Leen carried on with Spain for a
commercial treaty. had terminated
unsatisfactory. Tne Government,
the Under Secretary said, could only
consider the recant actions of Spain
as a refusal 10 fulfill the fundamental
conclusions of the declaration of the
list of December, 1854. Sir r. D.
Morier, British Minister to Madrid,
had therefore been instructed to
inform Spain that under the circum-
stances the negotiations were at an
end. Papers on the subject would
be distributed, Lord Edmund said,
as soon as possible. The object of
the negotiations now broken off was
to OBTAIN for England the most
favored national treatment.

Wholesale Burglary.

Several days ago, a brother of John
Spencer, of the finn of Bateman &
Spencer, arrived here on a visit and
Friday last the entire family made a
trip to Deer Lodge, where other rela-
tives reside. Sunday night they re-
turned home and much to their dis
gust and surprise found that the
house had been entered by burglars
and ransacked from top to bottom;
in fact the re was not a closet, trunK
or drawer that bad not been forced
open. Clothing, jewelry, edlbles and
q small sum of money were taken
and the stuff that was left behind
was scattered in confusion over the
floors. An entrance Was effected
through the front door aud the
thieves must have remained some
time. MI. Spencer has hardly been
able to estimate the loss, but it must
have been considerable and he feels
reasonably certain that the depre-
datOrs were persons who kn7w of the
family trip to Deer Lodge.

The Denver e. Rio Grande Strike Be
comes More Serious.

DENVER, May 1S.-The shipments
strike on the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad assumed q very serious as
Feet to-day. In accordance with the
announcement made at a strikers
meeting yesterday afternoon, at
which several incendiary speeches
were made, about 500 men and forty
or fifty women assembled in the
vicinity of the shops this morning.
Several infammatory speeches were
made, songs were sung and a general
demonstration of defiance was in
dulged in. One of the yard men re-
turning to work was set upon by the
crowd, knocked down, kicked and
cut about the face in a most brutal
manner. The other workmen were
escorted through the crowd by a
posse of Deputy United States Mar
shals. About s o'clock POO or 800 of
the strikers formed in line and
marched to the town hall. A halt
was made in front of the Of
flee of the Rocky Mountain
NeWs, which had seen fit
to criticise the action Of the men in
striking and to denounce some of
their designing leaders. Here copies
of the NeMs were burned by the mob
amid a pandemonlum of jeers and
yells of derlsion and defiance. The
crowd proceeded up Sixteenth street.
At Shedd's Cheap Store another halt
was made and the same programme
gone through with. 1t appears that
Shedd recently discharged a sales
lady who belonged to the woman's
branch of the knights of Labor Or
%ganization without asking the con-
sent of that body. Circulars. com

were distributed everywhere. Talks

zens to-day prove that w. atever

tanned up to this time has been lost
by their riotous conduct of this
morning. No arrests have yet been
made.
