Wages Reduced by British Ship-Build-
ers and Cotton Manufacturers.
Business Depressed in Other Lines Of Trade
Scandal in Which the Royal Family
OF Germany Is Involved.
IN rREE-rRApE BRITAIN.

Wages of ship-Buiiders and Cotton Oper-
atives Reduced-Drspery Trade Depressed.
LONDON, Oct. 2.-The labor outlook IN
the manufacturing and ship-building Gen.
ters of Great Britain is very threatening.
A crisis is probable in the cotton trade
that promises TO have more widespread re-
suits than any OF the previous troubles
that nave occurred between the masters
and operatives, and in the ship building
trade of the Clyde only one-third of the
berths are occupied, and no new orders are
In hand. 1t is said that fifteen thousand
hands who are employed in various capa-
cities about the yards are idle. and those
who are still at work are working on short
time. To make matters worse for the en-
ployes, the masters have now decided TO
make n general reduction in wages, and
ave announced that engineers. IRON
founders and ship builders Will hencefOrth
receive 10 per cent. less money for their
labor than heretofore. This reduction 10
90 take effect Oct. 10. The Clyde miners
have also been notified that their wages
will be reduced sixpence per day on and
after the 10th of the current month.
Rumors have been in circulation for sew
eral days past that q large drapery-house
In the west end of Lond0n Is hopelessly IN

day. the st; James Gazette says that sew

the severe general depression which has
affected all ranks of society. This depres-
sion was badly felt last Christmas time.
when some of the largest drapery-shops in
the West End did not for days receive a
single customer. Many firms. in despair,
~dismantled their windows and packed
their fancy goods away with q view to
holding them over until next December.
The betrothal of the DIXIE of Clarence
and Avondale and Princess Marie created
D demand for q new style OF goods, which
were no sooner produced than all demand
for them was blasted by the death of the
Duke, and the dealers were left with miles
OF finery os their hands. The greater
houses found it necessary to extend their
credits of small dealers. in order to pre-
vent them from becoming bankrupt This
extension of credit was overdone. and un-
less trade revives by Christmas a collapse
will be inevitable. If one big house goes
be will drag others with it. The st. James
Gazette concludes by saying 1t IS to be
hoped hat royalty will set the ball of
prosperity rolling. The announcement
that the Duke of York was about to marry
would have q magical effect on trade.
