A Mistake of Ten Per Cent.

The statement tclegraphed from

Glover Cotton mill had declared Il
dividend of fl per cent. on the
business Of the past year, was in
correct. The Enquirer tried to
verify the statement before re-

do SO. The dividend was 81 in
stead of Il per cent. and of this
6 per cent. was payable in cash.
The Glover mill was not respon.
