Manchester Markets.

Manchester, May 24.-There is no
change for the better in the industries
which center here. Business is so small
that the factories are practically at a
standstill. The rate of eastern exchange
makes Indian and Chinese orders for the
most part impossible, and there is no
sign of revival as yet in the Levant. Idle
looms are rapidly increasing in number.
One result of this serious condition is a
resolution to make the Whitsuntide holi-
days as long as possible.
Yarns are becoming more plentiful, a
regular glut in fact, and the old orders
are not replaced by current purchases.
Prices are irregular, and the quotations,
which are but nominal, follow the decline
in cotton. On the continent, however, the
markets are steady to fairly strong.

London. May 23.-The correspondent of
Daily Telegraph in Epirus gives terri
bic picture of the excuses of the Italians
while travelling from Arta to Zaverda
He says:
"They stole brandy and drank it like
water. Armed only with revolvers and
bayonets, by the time they reached
Zaverda they were quarrelling fiercely
among themselves. The villagers,
thoroughly alarmed, gathered in readi-
ness to fight the Italians, and the situa-
ton became serious. A Greek tried to
pacify Garibaldian who was about to
dash his brains out with a stone, where
upon an Italian fired on and wounded the
Greek.
Instantly the cry was raised A Greek
has been killed. and the villagers began
to fire their rifles. The melee became
general, but the Italians displayed flag
of truce and the embarkation was eff
fected, though with difficulty.
Several Italian officers told me they
did not expect to reach land alive, as their
ruffianly soldiers would surely kill them"

RELIEF MEASURE SIGNED,
Plans for Distributing Relief In
Cuba Being Matured.

Washington, May 24.-The resolution
apprOpriatng $4,000 for the relief Of the
distressed of the American citizens in
Cuba reached the White House at 1890
today, just as soon as II could be sent
up after being signed by both houses.
while they were in open session. The
president signed the resolution imme-
diately and will proceed at once to con-
suit with the officers of the state depart
ment respecting the adoption of meas
ures of relief in addition to those taken
last week, when Consul General Lee was
authorized to draw on the state depart
ment for $4,000 for the present imme-
date supplies. State department officials
are of the opinion that It will not suffice
to send money to Cuba, but believe that
in view of the high prices for provisions
prevailing on the island 1t will be best
to procure at least n portion of the stores
in this country and send them by freight
steamers to Cuba.
The president, on the suggestion of Sec
rotary Alger, is considering the plan of
assigning an officer from the c0mmissary
department of the regular army to take
charge of the assemblage of relief sup
plies for Americans in Cuba. This de-
partment is trained in the handling Of
supplies and has advantages in contract
ing for large quantities Of necessaries.
Through the good offices Of the Spanish
government it Is probable that In the
event it Is-1lecided to send food supplies
to Cuba in addition to the remittances
of money, our government will be able to
send much more than would be the case
if duty were exacted on the goods ex-
ported An intimation has been given
that such supplies will be admitted. duty
free. The importance of this remission
can be perceived when II is realized that
the duty on -four is $3.50 per barrel. or
about its original cost In other words,
the $4,000 appropriated would be. prac--
tically doubled in value by the saving OF
tariff deductions.
1t was said this afternoon that the
president tomorrow would begin to plan
the details of the distribution. so the sub.
ject would doubtless come before the full
cabinet at it's regular meeting.

Created a Great Sensation.

London, May 23.-The Madrid cores
pondent of the Times says:
Seldom in the history of the cortes has
Tetuan-Comas incident. 1t is difficult to
conceive how staid and experienced
statesman like the Duke of Tetuan could
have so completely lost his self-control
on so slight provocation.
1t is believed Senior Sagasta is willing
to do all he consistently can to minimize
the difficulties, but it seems impossible
that the Duke of Tetuan should retain
his portfolio.
