THE COTTON KING.
HUSTLED AT MANCHESTER,
AN UNFRIENDLY RECEPTION,
A HASTY ESCAPE.
[Press Association—Copyright.] ' LONDON, Saturday
Mr. James Patten, the American spectator, was the subject of a hostile demonstration at the Manchester Royal Exchange.
Members, elbowing and shaking their fists in his face, compelled the cotun king to take refuge- in a neighbouring office. With the assistance of a strong police gjiard he escaped by means of a fire exit, and immediately entrained for Liverpool, where he was sympathetically received. Mr. Patten sails for America to-day.
