London. Sept. 16.-There was not the
slightest sign during the past week of
any hardening in discount rates. The
influx of money to the Bank of England
continues, and the governors prefer to
allow it to accumulate rather than to in
vest while the prices of investment stocks
are on a prohibitive test. ~
Some purchases OF gold have been
made recently. Rumors are circulated
that the government proposes to coin a
British silver dollar for eastern trade.
The stock market continued active and
firm. despite a haste to realize profits.

Unpleasant for Lii Hung Chang.

London, Sept. ia later Shanghai
dispatch says advices have reached
there from Nagasak showing that a
number of japanese ships conveyed
by men-of-war have left HIROSHIMA,
Island of Hondo, bound for Chemulpo,
Corea. These probably are the vessels
above mentioned as being bound with
Japanese forces for China.
Doubtless exaggerated news of the
vessels were received in Tien Tsin, and
lit was taken for granted the destina-
ton of the army was China and its
object the capture of some port which
lcould be used as the base Of operations
flor future movements. 1t is now adj

for Ii Hung Chang. The viceroys of
Nankin, Canton, Manchoria and Kash-
gar have all interfered more or less in
such matters.
The dispatch further says the
emperor has received many letters
from Corean noblemen and generals
assuring him of their undiminshed
fidelity despite the Corean kings

ANOTHER BIG STRIKE.
New England VIII De the Scene OF
ODerafions This Time.

Boston, Sept. 16. There is every indica-
ton today that within few days there
will be inaugurafed here one of the big
gest strikes in the history of the cloth
iEg trade of New England.
The various branches of the trade held
meetings today and endorsed the recon-
nlendatious of the clothing trade council
that the sweating system be abolished and
that the weekly wage system be estab-
RliShed. also that a uniform number OF
working hours be established.
The matter will be brought before a
mass meeting of the united craft tomor-
row, and if the recommendations are
adopted by a two-thirds majority, then
a series of conferences with the manu-
facturers and contractors will be held as
soon as possible. If the employers agree
to the demands the threatened strike will
be averted but if they refuse, a strike
will be ordered at once.
The operatives claim they are in a. bet
ter shape for a struggle than their en-
ployers, as the latter have been awaiting
the result of the tariff BILL and conse-
quently are behind with their work. They
also assert they have everything to gain
and nothing to lose. as they are ground
down at the present beyond endurance.
\ feature the men are expecting will
aid them is that owing to the present
strike in New York the manufacturers
have been sending their work to be made
UP here.
The entire trade appears encouraged
over the prospect, and at the meeting to-
day a strike would have been ordered If
it had been possible.
