A New Traffic Arrangement.
Dy Aatoeiated Preoa to Tho Nowh.
London, Deo. 23. Tho Pall
Mall Gazette says: Tho inuroased
rates between Manchester canal
wharves and tho consuming center,
will Bhortly bo levied by all rail, i
roads-, who will aot together in tho
matter with the object of raising
the cost of transport atiin frcm
Manchester, and thus bricg traffic
back to Livorpool. Tho Pall Mall
Gazette adds that it is moro than
probable tho rates, from Liverpool
direct, will bo roduced and con
sequently tho new canal will have a
double difficulty to face and that it
is doubtful if the speculation will
pay. Continuing, tho same piper
remarks: Two days is the time re
quired of ocean steamers in whioh to
travel tho canal, and at a charge
of about six shillings per ton more
than tho Liverpool chargos. Latoly
there has boon a great rush to secure
cotton cargoes irom steamers from
Galveston and Now Orlo.iLE, though
many of thorn are making experi
mental trips.

Tho Report Discredited.

Washington, I). C., Dec. 23.
The s ato and navy departments aro
both v ry positive today in ex
pressing thoir discredit of thu
r(5jT0Tfs that Mollo has captuud
Rio. Word is believed to hao
been received since yestorday in one
of tho departments contradicting
yesterday's rumors. Nothing ox
plicit as to this can bo socurud. It
is tho very general impression, how
over, that if tho report of tho down
fall of Picxoto is urcmaturo is will
prove correct in time.
Bloodshed is Foarod.

Accident at tho Carnegie Plant.
lly AeKoclntoil Press to The Nowb.
Homestead, Pa., Doc. 23. An
accident occurred in a cave in the
Ctrnogio Steel Company's plant' at
1 o'clookjthis morning by which one
man was killed and throo others
seriously injured. All tho injured
were Hungarians. Superintendent
Malmpoy says: Tho cavo would
have boon completed, in a fow
hours if tho accidont had not occur
red. Tho mon woro trimming
corners, so that bricklayers could
commonco work at daylight. Four
teen men woro at work when tho

spread all of them had been killed.
Bradstroets' State of Trado.
Siiuclaltotho Nous.
New York, Doc. 22. Bradstroots
will say tomorrow: Tho features of
tho business of tho weok woro in
creased uniformity in reports that
general trado was quito as muoh or
more depressed than previously ;that
holiday trado had boon unuatm
factory and far below th3n a year
ago, continued closing down of im
portant industrial establishments,
reduction of wages, and increased
instances where a short was being
enforced. Nearly all tho staple
markets aro quiet to stagnation,
tho exception being cotton, stimu
lated by low crop reports. Wheat
was higher for a time, but reacted.
On tho other hand pig iron was
never lower than now. With the
exception of Augusta, Ga. , and
possibly ono other point, absolutely
no claim to even a slight improvo
mont in any lino of business was
made this week. ExportB of wheat
from both coasts of tho United
States aro not as largo aB last weok,
amounting only to three-quarters
tho aggregate shipped two years
ago.
Special telegramB from 119 cities
indicate tho total number of em
ployes out of work from all causes
together, with the total number
direotly dependent on those idle, at
nearly 3,000,000.
Transactions in lumber, leather,
wool, dry goods, and in fact all
staple lines are for actual wants
only, and the outlook does not
favor material revival for sixty
days. There is an improvement in
Christmas trade among retailers at
very few western aitiea. Others
report fair or dull trade.
