NEWS FROM ENGLAND. THE COTTON INDUSTRIAL DISPUTE. A Manchester message asserts that the prospects of adjusting the existing difficulties in the cotton industry are becoming brighter. VIOLENT WEATHER. For the last two days, says a London telegram of Thursday’s date, a violent storm has- been rag ing throughout Great Britain. Extraordinarily heavy rain is reported from all parts, and many shipwrecks have occurred around the coasts. NEWS FROM AMERICA. THE RAILROAD QUESTION. It is rumoured at Washington that proceedings will be instituted against the Union Pacific and the Southern Pacific railroads within a month, be fore a Court of Equity. THE TRANSATLANTIC RATE WAR. A cable from New York of yesterday says that, as the Cunard Company had declined to increase the amount of the fares for 2nd and 3rd class passages on board the “Lusitania” and “Maure tania” by $3.75, the International Mercantile Com pany had given notice of a reduction of fares to that amount for all ships of the American and White Star lines engaged in the transport of passengers to and from Great Britain. The Cunard Company immediately reduced their rates, where upon the International Mercantile Company followed suit with a second reduction. It was believed that the Cunard Company would take a further step at once. As the new rates affect fares to and from Cherbourg, the French line had lowered their fares for the second cabin by $ 2. NEWS FROM RUSSIA. REVOLUTIONARIES IN POLAND. The local police at Warsaw, says a despatch, have discovered the existence of a revolutionary organisation among the officers of the fortress artillery. Several officers have been arrested in consequence. NEWS FROM ITALY. VESUVIUS ACTIVE. According to a Rome telegram immense volumes of smoke are issuing from the crater of Vesuvius. The Messagero of Naples * declares that the Observatory authorities at Vesuvius, in reference to the unrest of the volcano, believe the smoke to be due to the intrusion of rain-water in the crater, and state that there is no ground for the fear of a volcanic eruption. THE SITUATION IN MOROCCO. General Drude arrived at Algiers on Thursday morning, and embarked on board the steamer “Marechal-Bugeaud”, en route to Marseilles. News has been brought to Tangier by a German vessel that two long-boats foundered in Rabat har bour, 40 people being drowned. Among those lost were several Europeans. The Kolnische Zeitung publishes a report from Tangier dated the 8 th instant that the sittings of the diplomatic body had begun, with the object of settling the text of the regulations under the Act of Algeciras which were drafted last year but have to be reconsidered in consequence of the Govern ment having proposed alterations. The same jour nal also publishes a report from Casablanca, that the French Commander had demanded from the tribes at Mediuna the surrender of Mulai Reshid and other chiefs as well as of all weapons. It was officially stated yesterday at Madrid that a meeting of notables had been held at Tetuan at the house of the Bashaw, for the purpose of con sidering what measures should be adopted to meet the state of things created by the fanatics, who 52 Prager Str. near Main R.

Reuter reports from Shanghai that an insurrec tion has broken out in the province of Tsche-Kiang. In the neighbourhood of Kaschung-Yamen a Pro testant church and a school-house have been destroyed, but the foreigners are not considered to be in danger. The insurrection is more in the nature of an anti-dynastic movement. OTTO MAYER Photographer 38 Prager Strasse 38 Tel. 446. By appointment to T. M. the King of Saxony and the Emperor of Austria.

I on the first day of the new year attempted to in stigate the people to oppose the organisation of the Police force. On the advice of the Spanish Consul, who attended the meeting, the Bashaw re solved at once to enrol 200 Askaris, to maintain order. One hundred of these had already been re cruited. The notables further expressed their dis approval of the declaration with which the Kadi had commenced the incident, and their recognition of the necessity of now organizing the Police. SEVERE WEATHER IN THE NORTH. From all parts of north Germany and Denmark come reports of gales, blizzards and inclement weather. At Kiel the tide rose on Thursday in an alarming manner, overflowing at many parts of the bank and inundating low-lying houses, so that the fire- brigade was compelled to work incessantly in order to pump out the water. The steamer traffic in the harbour is at a complete standstill. At Cuxhaven the north-east gale which since early Thursday morning has raged over the North Sea coast, prevented many outward bound vessels from sailing. They have been compelled to anchor until the weather moderates. A Copenhagen report says that a blizzard broke over Denmark on Wednesday evening and con tinues up to the despatch of the message. The traffic over the State and private railways through out the country has been suspended. The Copen- hagen-Berlin express was compelled to turn back upon reaching Roskilde,' while the express from Berlin that was due at Copenhagen on Wednesday evening is still detained on the way by stress of weather. Passenger trains on the Seeland, Fiinen and Jutland lines have been completely snowed up and remain embedded in the drifts. No mails from the Danish provinces or the south arrived at Copen hagen on Thursday. According to another telegram from Kiel the Northerly storm continued to rage with undimi nished violence on Wednesday evening and through out the night, so that the flood tide rose to a height dangerous to the houses along the harbour front. Many fishing boats had been destroyed and sunk. Great damage had also been done to the bridges. Yesterday morning the harbour traffic had been in part resumed, as the storm was abating. Reports of damage done by the storm and high tides had been received from almost all the places on the East coast of Schleswig-Holstein. LONDON LETTER. (From our own correspondent.) London, January 8. Yesterday came the rumour that The Times was about to change hands. Today that rumour has been confirmed by the announcement that Mr. C. Arthur Pearson is to take the place of Mr. Mober- ley Bell as business manager. The arrangement is not yet concluded, but of course there are no real reservations in the announcement. The newspaper is to be formed into a limited company under the chairmanship of Mr. Walter, the original proprietor, in- whose family the control of the paper has re sided for more than a century. The assurance that the editorial side of the paper will continue un changed is probably no more than formal. I hear from a credible source that the resignation of a part, at any rate, of the staff is tolerably certain. It stands to reason that if serious changes are con templated they must affect the tone and objects of the paper. Some months ago an unsuccessful attempt was made to win the financial and political as sistance of a number of staunch Conservative Free Traders, and the meaning of the present change is involved with the adoption of a strong tariff re form attitude. Mr. Pearson has always been one of Mr. Chamberlain’s most loyal henchmen: was it not Mr. Chamberlain who called him the greatest of all hustlers? Of late the attitude of The Times on the question of tariff reform has been some what reserved; it appeared to be anxious to shelve the matter for a few years in favour of an anti socialist agitation. One may safely predict a marked change in this direction, if not in others. As for Mr. Pearson himself, he is one of those brilliant young men to whom English journalism owes much of its new character. He is only just on the other side of forty, but he has already amassed a fortune, made a big name, and absorbed a great many newspapers. His personal characteristics include a strenuousness more than human, great good nature, and a daring stretched to the utmost limit. The son of a country parson, he came up to town to make his fortune as a clerk on the staff of Tit-Bits, which was at that time not very old. The position was gained as the prize in a competition wherein young Pearson was the successful competitor. He had not been on the paper a year when he proposed to the proprietor, Mr. Newnes (as he then was) that he should make him the manager of the paper. Mr. Newnes consented, and at the age of nineteen Mr. Pearson became manager of the most successful weekly of the day. After a few years he withdrew from this position, and with borrowed capital founded Pearson's Weekly. From this he proceeded to other publications, in cluding Pearson's Magazine, but it was not until 1900 that he ventured on daily journalism. He now founded the Daily Express, in rivalry of the Daily Mail, and soon after bought the Evening Standard, which is prospering under his manage ment, and the Standard, which is not. A great many papers in the provinces also belong to him, including the Manchester Courier. The result of the Druce Case is no surprise to anybody. Mr. Plowden put it very well when he said that the voice from the grave of the dead man had eloquently, if silently, justified the son. The bubble, he said, had been pricked at last. The failure of the proceedings on the charge of perjury is in the course of things certain- to react on the civil action now pending in the courts. It will be interesting to see what line will be taken by the claimant. I hear that a meeting of the shareholders in G. H. Druce, Limited, is to be called in order to decide what shall be done. The case which came before Mr. Plowden made a serious inroad into the capital at the company’s disposal, and it is more than probable that fresh funds will have to be raised if the civil action is to be proceeded with. The meeting of the shareholders will not take place for some weeks owing to the difficulty of getting all the shareholders together quickly. Mr. Coburn, the Australian solicitor retained by Mr. G. H. Druce, is very confident as to the result of the meeting in re-establishing the claim.
