MANCHESTER CLOTHS.

MANCHESTER, England, December g.
The buying power in the cloth market this
week was very limited and the turnover
was Of small dimensions. Manufacturers
engaged on old contracts adopted firm
attitude, while others were in line to make
concessions in order to induce business.
But the merchants stood out for reductions
and were assisted in their attitude by the
rapidity with which new spindles are start
ing to work.
India absorbed only light fancy cloths
and China bought shirtings moderately.
while the other markets purchased the
usual miscellaneous assortments.
Yarns were quiet with increased sup
plies American cops were firm, but the
other grades were farthing lower.

LYNCHED THE DIRECTORS.
New Hungarian Method Of Settling
Bank Troubles.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
VIENNA, December s.-Two directors
of a savings bank were lynched at Liget.
in Hungary. the other day, thereby pro-
viding a new method Of dealing with de-
faulting or careless bank directors.
The bank. which had not been in exist
ence very long, was obliged to close its
doors owing to mismanagement, and the
depositors, chiefly Roumanian peasants Of
the vicinity, decided at a creditors meet
ing to be revenged upon the persons re-
sponsble.
The managing director managed to es-
cape. but the depositors caught Nicholas
Peteru and Josef Szurdu, the two other
members OF the board, they fed
through the streets and dubbed them to
death with cudgels. An investigation by
the authorities is now proceeding, but IL
appears almost impossible to induce any
Of those interested to testify against the
murderers Of the directors recreant to theil
trust.

Thomas Frederick Halsey, the sitting
member. announced himself as a free
trader i'm favor Of the negotiation Of

lie said he had never hidden the fact
that he was a free trader. lie objected
strongly 20 the taxation Of the food Of
the people, and could not understand
how in the peculiar situation of this
island, protective tariffs could be built
up. At the same time he must also say
that he was in favor of negotiation, not
TO use the word retaliate.
They all remembered the advantage Of
Cobden's treaty with France. and under
the recent treaties which Lord Lans-

now be admitted to those countries at
much lower tariffs than heretofore.
