City of Lowell Losing in Population
 Many Empty Houses.
 Lowell, Mass, May 4.-The contro- versy between the operatives and the cotton mill managers here Involving 1SOO0 hands and seven corporations which are shut down pending a settle ment entered upon its sixth week to- day with little prospect of immediate change. An estimate places the loss in wages at nearly $600,O00. There are no figures ito determine the approx innate loss of the mills.
 ; The city is losing dn population ev- cry day. At no time in the history of Lowell, it is said, has there ever been a real estate paralysis like that which now prevails. Hundreds of houses are empty and rooms are adver- tised to let in all sections. Business in general is suffering and the savings banks have stopped making loans as the money is needed to pay depositors who are making withdrawals daily.

LACK OF HARMONY. .
May Nullify an Offer of Andrew Car
 negie to Give $1,OOO,OOO.

negle 10 Give $1,OOO,OOO.
 New York, May 4-Lack of har- mony among the associations of en- gtneers i'll this country may nullify an offer of Andrew Carnegie to give $1,- 100000 or more with which to estab- fish a national center for engineering interests in this city Rivalry exists among the various bodies of the en- gineering profession, and a high off, cial in one of the bodies says it is doubtful if all can live in peace under one roof. @
 Not until very recently was 1t known to more than three or four men with whom MT Carnegie had consulted that he intended to found an institution which would be unique both in this country and in Europe He intended that his gift should be used to erect a magnificent building as monument of his gratitude to a profession with which his business has been closely identified.
 The building was to cost not less than $1,O00,O00, exclusive of the cost of a site. It would contain perfectly appointed club to take the place of the Engineers club, now located on Fifth avenue, an auditorium with a seating capacity of 2,0O0 persons, separate quarters for the four engineering bodies which will constitute the union, and libraries which would be unsur- passed in the engineering fold. 7 MT Carnegie has put his proposal in writing, and as the matter now stands it needs only the harmonious action of the councils of the associations con cerned a meeting of which will he held Thursday, to utilize his, gift.

 Which Knocked Him senseless.

While he was at work, steam from the safety valve or the whistle suddenly blew out, striking him in the face, causing burns which still remain, and knock ing him senseless. He knew nothing more, he says, until he was picked up after the collision.
