NF.W YOHK , .luly 27. A report that sovcral
Importnnt mills In Massachusetts , Mamo
and llhodo Island were to bo shut down
was used In thcso dispatches on Tuesday
ana brought out several denials , seemingly
nuthorltntlvo from mill owners or agents In
thcso states. Cornelius N. IHIss , who lur-
titsbcd the Information , said today :
" 1 know no reason why tbcso statements
should bo made , nor do 1 Know why li should
bo thought necessary to conceal such facts.
1 may say now , explicitly , that the mills re
ferred to are those of the Otis company
with the I'almcr mill. Similar notion will
ho taken by the followlnf ? of the same con-
ncctlon : The Thorndyko company of Thorn-
dylto.lho Iloston Duck company , the Uonds-
vlllo Pie works , the Conies mill and the
Warner Cotton mills. The Columbian Man
ufacturing Company mills of Oroenvlllc , N.
II. , will ulso stop. This action will bo taken
at the end of the week and It Is Intended to
keep the mills closed for four weeks. They
give employment to about 5.0 ( ) ( ) operatives. "
1'rivato dispatches received today further
confirm the report , imniitig nearly all the
mills mentioned by Mr. Hllss and some
others besides.

UeMilvcd , That ll Is tbu best .ludament of
the delegates from tbo Male of New York to
llio Ublcugo confnrenco that congress should

of thu Treasury department , and especially
tbu action ot thudlreotorof the mint In sulect-
Ing tbo market prlco of silver In a foreign
country to govern hl.s action In purchasing

rotation to purchases required under It , pro-
eeilln n of Impeachment .should bo hmitu-
llatuly commenced against tbu person or
ier > ons so olTomllng.
Resolutions were also passed deploring the
iotous proceeding precipitated by an organ-
zed body of men. which invaded the meeting
recently held in the Fifth Avenue hotel lor
; ho purpose of creating a disturbance nnd
bringing the meeting into disrepute.
'iho delegates adjourned to meet at the
Palmer house. Chicago , at 8 p. m. , Monday ,
July 31.
A letter addressed to the delegates to the
convention , embodying tlio views of
the Now York delegation was given to tbo
iross today. It sets forth the belief that
'tbo present llnancial troubles are entirely
owing to the insulllciont volume of moiioy ,
nnd if the only money In circulation was gold
the present evils would exist with distress-
'ng aggravation. It is believed that all safe
methods to extend our currency must rest on
n gold and silver basis. "
It is announced by A. J. Warner , president
of the lilmeUHIc league , that the silver
convention to bo held at Chicago August 1
ivill have daily sessions. Wednesday evening -
ing there will bo a monster meeting on the
Lake front.
General Warner says : ' 'Tho time of the
convention will bo devoted to the discussion
of Iho situation and tbo appointment of n
committee to prepare resolutions and an ad
dress to ccngress and tlio ueoplo of the
ountry. Measures to arouse tbocountry to a
Bcnso of the dangers threatened by the sin
gle gold standard will bo discussed. Tbo de
tails of the work have not been decided on
and will not bo until wo get together
in Chicago. This r.rlsis is making
legions of silver men among us. It is
n n object lesson not only for this country ,
but for the world. At the beginning a
shrinkage in values must taito place in order
to come down to n purely gold basis. If tbo
wealth of this country is to bo measured in
_ ; old it will measure much less than most
people have any idea. "
Chlcilgu Will Ins no Certificates.
Cinc.voo , July 27. At a mooting of the
clearing bouse today a letter was received
from a number of merchants urging that the
Clearing House association consider Iho pro
priety of authorizing tbo issue of clearing
house certificates for tbo purpose of paying
balances between members of the association
to conform to tbo views anil methods of
the eastern cities. After discussion , while
a general feeling was expressed that nt the
present time there was no need for such
facilities , it was voted to authorize Us
clearing house commit too to issue certifi
cates whenever , In its Judgment , the occa
sion should make it desirable.

INDIA'S ' STRIPED TERROR
The Destroyer of Man and Djsolatjr of
Nntivo Villages.
FEROCITY OF THE ROYAL BENGAL TIGER
Mr lldwln Arnold's ItmnlnUcoiicPt of the
Itcal Lord or Urnntlou In liull.ui
s An tnrldmit.oii the l.owur
Slopes ot the ( Jhiuits ,
The trtio owner nnd Iniullonl of mmiy
a tniot of country in tlio purls I nin re
visiting in llioii'lit { , , writes Sir Edwin
Arnold in the London Tolojjt'nph , is the
Kold-coatotl find striped tyrant of tlio
woods , tbo ti or. There uro lurjjo
rnnjjos on the limits ono mijjlil almost
call thorn oalatos which are owned , at
least temporarily , by a pair of tifjors , or
it mtiy bo by an old male tiger Hiiujly , or
by a tigress which has been loft alone to
take care of herself and her cubs , and
so develops all the worst virtues of her
fierce maternity. It Is ono of the e last
that has come to my mind in connection
with a summer evening in India , when
along the lonely jungle road an ISng-
lishman with his attendants was approaching
preaching a village. In such a country
IIH 1 am describing the villages are few
and far between , partly because of many
dilllcultiea as to agriculture and mar
kets , partly because of the resolute way
in which the more courageous wild
beasts dispute with man horoabjut * his
pretentious to call himself lord of the
creation. On the plains where the coun
try Is open and easily traversed tigers
never stay long in ono place , or are
likely to pay with their hides if they do :
but on the shoulders of tno' hills , sur
rounded by thickets which are the
fringe of an interminable forest , the
striped rajah of the forest is oftentimes
master of the situation and takes tribute
from the cattle , goats and dogs
of the community till ho can bo
trapped or poisoned , or until ho goon for
Memo personal reason elsewhere. It is
not so bad for the country people as long
as ho retains his natural dread of man ,
which ia so instinctive that the Indian
herd boy will often fearlessly save his
oxen by shouting at the attacking tiger ,
and even Hinging his stick at him ; nor
do the slender Indian girls shrink from
leading their goats to the stream or
fetching home wood and gra s because a
tiger has killed a cow or kid just beyond
the village.
Hut at one time or another a tiger
who has been , like the rest of his kind ,
terribly afraid of man in any shape , lays
that dread aside on a sudden and for
ever , and then becomes truly formida
ble. It is , perhaps , in most ca'-ps the
result of an unintended experiment.
The courage of , a tiger is the courage
not of pride , but of desperation , like
that of a cat. Ho will got between the
roots of the trees or tbe cracks in the
earth to escape , but if escape be cut olT
ho will attack an elephant with armed
sportsmen upon it , which is as if an in
fantry soldier should hurl himself
against the masonry of a fortress. In
borne fatal moment the Hindoo girl
going with her pitcher , or the native
agriculturist , or the local postman with
his jingling bells has passed some spot
whore a tiger lay in wait watching the
distant cattle gra/.ing , or waiting for
night time to visit BOIUO tigress
who has amorously responded to his
roar. The beast has thought himself
perceived , has feared to bo cut oil' from
his usual retreat , or the victim has
shouted in terror , making the tiger hys
terical with fright , and then , in"a
paroxysm of rage and tear , it has
snarled and sprung forth and dealt in
frenzy rather than do.iign that terrible
blow with tlio forepuw which will stun a
wild boar and dislocate the neck bono of
a bull. Hoforo his rear of angrynur- *
prise has echoed through the jungle the
man , or woman , or child lies a eorp.se
under his claws , and instinct forces him
to go on , and to clinch the soft neck with
his yellow fangs. Then the secret is
out ; the tiger has leiirnod what a "poor
forked thing" this lord of the creation
is ; how feeble his natural forces ; how
useless for defense that eye that was so
dreaded : those hands that were so crafty ;
those limbs that bore him so haughtily
with his head to the sky. Moreover ,
the tiger has tasted man and found him
as savory to devour as ho ia eTisy to
butcher , and from that time forth the
brute neglects no further opportunity ,
but becomes a confirmed "man-eater. "
There appeared the other day in an
Indian newspaper a letter from an
lingllsh official who had como across an
instance where a young tigress , in the
inannor abided to , had depopulated a
district , killed dozens of mini and
wonion , and taken actual possession of a
forest road and tract. She began her
career in July by Jdlling two women
near a forest village , and by the end of
the following December had slain at
least thirty persons , becoming bolder
and more cunning with each fresh
murder. Her beat lay in some foot
hills , and she roamed over an orea of
twenty-live miles long by three or four
broad. The country was such that she
could neither bo tracked for any dis
tance nor driven out by boaters. She
would not kill a tied bulYitlo , nor would
HIO go back to u corpse if once disturbed.
She became at last so bold that ulio
would in open daylight carry elf men
and women when cutting the crops in
the terraced Holds , stalking them from
above and suddenly springing on thorn.
The terror of her ferocity spread
through the country. The villagers left
their homes for safer regions , yet oven
in the forests the tigress learned to
stalk the Bound of an ax , and made
many victims before the woods were
proved to bo even more dangerous
than the Holds had been , The
method of attack adopted was
so sudden in to prevent any
possibility of escape ; the blow dealt BO
deadly as to render oven a cry for help
impossible. The victim was dead and
carried oil before hid companions know
what had occurred. Constant efforts
were made for her destruction. Poison ,
spring guns and dead falls were inef
fectually resorted to , any number of buffaloes -
faloos w'ero tied up at night , and many a
time the fresh trail of a kill was taken
up in holies of obtaining a shot at thu
tigress , but with no result. At last a
lilo of soldiers were requisitioned to BOO
what force could do to remove this hor-
rihlo animal , cunning having been found
of no avail , The boast was killed , and
was found to bo a young tigress , in par-
foot condition ; the pad of her loft fore
foot had at ono time boon deeply cut
from Bide to side , but had thoroughly
hculod , leaving , however , a deep scar ,
which had proved hop presence wherever -
over BIO ! roamed.
The Kiuuo account mentions ono in
stance in which two cowherds , living In
u small grass hut in a Homowhat wild
forest , were cooking their food in the
evening , when this tigress suddenly
sprang on one and carried him olT. Ilia
companion intimidated the animal with
shouts and threats , and Bueeoodod in
making him leuvo his victim. Carrying
his wounded companion into the hut , the
trembling Koombl closed the cntninco
and waited for daylight. Hut this ho
never baw , because , after a time , the
tlgrosB , emboldened by the increasing
darkness , returned , , and forcing her way
into the hut , carried off the uniujurod
man , who was ( loubtlh * * doing all ho
could to prevent the approach of the
brute. The other , who was llrst sol/ed ,
died of his wounds and sheer terror the
next day , after relating the story to
those who had found him. '
The party of the sahib that Indit.n
evening canto nero s just such a scone M
is here spoken of. As it came down the
hillside by the widening path to the
jungle village no sound whatever arose
from its few and humble habitations.
Nobody came out U ) make salutation or
to offer supplies ; iiocattlo were perceived
wandering about , no children , no birds ,
except , Indeed , many vultures upon the
tree in the square nnd upon the temple
roof. The pots in tbo grain dealer's
shop were empty and overturned , a
piece of cloth just begun was left with
broken threads upon the loom In the
next hut. On the other side of the way
the chatties at a potter's were tumbled
and broken , and n shoot of copper lay at
the blacksmith's forge half bout to make
some vessel , precipitately abandoned.
\Vhorevor one gazed there were signs of
a hasty Illght on the part of the in
habitants , who did not seem to have loft
anybody to represent them. Yes ! there
was ono silent and melancholy repre
sentative , and the sudden appi'aratioo of
her would have startled the parly very
much more than it did but for a dis
covery made by tlio sahab's ghorawallah
the groom close by the silent and
empty temple. There was a muddy
patch there in the square , from which
the last of the rain water had but re
cently dried up , and in the black slimu
so loft were deeply Imprinted the "puds"
of nn evidently immense tigor. It v.'us ,
of course , evident now to the English
man and those with him that the striped
terror which loft those footmarks had
given the villagers notice to quit , nnd
was somewhere or other near at hand ,
In practical possession of the fee simple
of tlio village.
Desolate beyond expression was the
little unpooided "placo" of tho- hamlet ,
and the look of the helpless red god
staring from his portico tinon the huts
that ho could not protect , and the ex
citement of the horrible vultures
perched on the cotton trees , aware , no
doubt , of the deadly secret of the place ,
for 'round the corner by the dyer's ' shop ,
where two or three newly stained turban
cloths still hung upon ropes to dry , they
came upon that secret. Across the
threshold of a mud hut , evidently
dragged olt from the broken oharpoy on
the earthen iloor lay the body of a
woman , torn on the brown delicate neck
and along the shoulders and breast with
lonj { red claw marks. A dead infant ,
also mangled by a savage bite , and with
one of its arms nearly torn olT , lay half
concealed under the corpse , the appcar-
anco of the bodies showing that they
had boon only lately killed. No ono
could doubt what had killed them. The
sign manual upon the bodies was surely
that of the royal boast who often in this
way disputes the right of his human
rival in India , roars to scorn the illusion
that man is master of oreated things.
The sahib's party was badly equipped
for tiger shooting , and passed , not with
out anxiety and the closing up of the
three or four servants and coolies ,
through the outskirts of this evicted
village. At any moment her ladyship
the tigress or his lordship the tiger ,
who had taken possession of the place ,
might emerge from a grain store or a
cow pen , or oven from some milk bush
or jowurl patch , to asic the travelers
what business they had upon the royal
property. Tlio ICnglishnian hastily put
bullets in both barrels of his shot gun
and walked his horse asquicly as his men
could follow out of the ill-fated giium.
At its outskirts 1)103- ) wore astonished
to hour a. voice high above their heads ,
which came , as they afterward found ,
from a young Hindoo low castu man sit
ting concealed in the branches of a
large mango tree , from which could bo
seen both entrance ; ) of the village. lie
had made a rutlo platform in a fork of
the tree and watched on it , with the long
barrel of a matchlock protuding , and by
bis side an earthen jar of water. They
invited him to come down and to tell
thorn the moaning of the extraordinary
spectacle they had witnessed. Ho de
scended and informed them that for
mouths past his village had been in
fested and persecuted by a tigress ,
which , after killing cattle and goats ,
had slain and partly caton three or four
children outside the hamlet , and had
taken , during the past eight or nine
days , to entering th o village at night
and carrying olT somebody or other
sleeping , as the Hindoos do , outside
tholr huts under the verandas. Tbo
woman slain that morning with her
baby was the wife of the poor match
lock man and ho had perched himself
in the tree hoping to avenge her death
wiion the sahib's party passed.
It was too serious a case not to bo re
ported in the proper quurt'ors , and an
expedition of practiced tiger shooters
was equipped among the ollicors at the
nearest station. The beast was tracked
and was killed after receiving eleven
bullets , and then it turned out that she
bad a half grown cub which had lost a
limb , and thus the maternal ntTculion of
the ferocious parent had driven it to
these desperate ways , Indeed , Iho
spectacle of that village was full of phil
osophical siiggijstivenuss. Tlio dead
human mother hail boon slain by reason
of the very same instinct which had
made her seek in vain to preserve her
child from the attack of the tigress
driven to its wit's ' ends to find food for
its own helpless olT.ipring. Tlio tigress
was in her way as tender a parent as the
loving mother whom she murdered , and
then , besides , there was the whole village -
lago depopulated , to make one wonder
what sort of a world it would have boon
if , as might well have happened , tigers
had evolved a1 * masters of tlio globe instead -
stead of men.

In the zoological gardens at Broslnu
recently a South American boa constrictor
stricter contended for a rabbit with a
large python from west Africa. It did not
succeed , however , the python being the
stronger of the two , and it withdrew.
About two hours later the keeper found
the . amo snakes lighting for another
rabbit. As the keeper supposed that
Ihe boa , which was the weaker of the
two , would again give up his prey , ho
loft thorn to themselves and went homo.
The next morning ho was horror-btrieken
to llnd that the unfortunate boa had not
lot go his hold and had boon swallowed
by tltNpython as a pendant to the rabbit.
The boi : was nearly .seven foot long and
correspondingly thick. The python had
already swallowed one rabbit buforo
the ono which proved fatal to the boa.
Its circiimfurenco throughout its length
was from twenty-throe to twenty-eight
inches , and its skin was oxpitn'ded to
double its usual si/.o. The supposition
that the snake might , perhaps , not be
able to digest the boa proved falsa.
Digestion only proceeded somewhat
moro slowly than usual.
Origin ol .liiiiUsiirloft.
Tlio Janissaries or Januzarics , were a
body of Turkish boldiors lirst organized
about lltlU ) A. D. , by Sultan Orcau , Iroin
the young Christian prisoners. The
naino is from the Turkish yoni askari ,
now soldiers. The Janissaries formed
Iho earlier standing army of Kuropo.
They were at first highly privileged and
soon' attained great power both in war
and politics. In 1512 they raised Soliin
to the throne and caused the death of
the famous ISajiizot ; in 1803 they ob
jected to the organization of any other
army than their own body and mas
sacred all the now troops they could.
In ISiO Mahomet II. suppressed them ,
his now troops rotnomboring the mas-
Haoro eighteen yours before , slaughtered
20,000 , of the obnoxious troops. Tills put
an end to the bJily. The nias-muro lasted
thrco daysI , tine M , Iii and 111.Vhon it
was tmdod Mahomet organized his naw
armies in comparative peace.
Transport I ni ; Diamond * ,
Diamond importers are trying to ar
range with the treasury olllcials to por-
mil diamonds being imported thrcViTg ii
the mails. Steamship companies charge
thruu-oights of 1 percent upon the valua
tion of diamonds for bringing thorn over.
Diamonds are shipped In small packages
about the si/.o of a letter , and if they
came over as registered mail they would
bo estimated by weight and a package
worth $ OU,000 would cost not more than
$1 for its carriage.
