As to the effect Of such purchase, together
with the fai1ure OF the American crop, upon
English mills, the Star adds:
"Any competition for supplies will be se-
Terely felt in Lancashire, though the actual de-
manu from America may be very limited In
the meantime the advancing price Of the raT
ma1esisl at Liverpool. and tae difficulty or the
lmpc seitiiity Of the Lancashire spinners and
manufacturers obtaining corresponding prices
for their 5a1ns and goods, las in the last few
days Strengthened the conviction Of III. ne
ctssily for generally placing the factories upon
short time. Il is better to snffer little pres.
eBt inconvenience than to incur the rl=k OF
certain disaster in the future, though tine in
mediate conet tquence may be to reduce the
tfa11ic of various 1slways."
The Star further informs us that adopting
this conviction the manufacturers Of Bacup
are working only four days in week, while
Burnley, Blackburn, Church, Preston, aud
several other cotton towns Of Lancashire are
largely following their example.
