AUSTRALIAN CABLES.
-w -♦ ; (Per Press Association.) Sydney, This Day. Consequent on the possession of heavy stocks a meeting of butter merchants decided to reduce the prices of butter Id per lb. The official report of the attempted escape from Darlinghurst shows Hareford feigned sickness, and was placed in the sick ward, where he picked the lock of the cell v/ith a nail. Finding subsequent escape hopeless he returned to tho cell. The authorities treat the matter somewhat lightly. The Barque Jules Verne which left Newcastle in June last in ballast for 'Frisco has not since been heard of. The steamer Titius brirfgs news of the supposed massacre of five Queensland prospectors on the north-east coast of New Guinea. The authorities are enquiring into the affair.
