What Manufacturers Say About
Reduction of Wages.

The Old Story of Supply

by many. viii be followed by a general reduction
OF wages. The manufacturers and all those who
employ labor, as may be naturally supposed, ad-
vOcate this theory most strenuousy In order give
the facts OF the present labor crisis and its conse
quences several HERALD reporters were instructed
70 obtain the views OF different manufacturers and
marketmen, which are given as f0ll0ws:-
The Tobacco Manufacturers.
A HERALD reporter called yesterday on Mr..
Pierre Lorillard, of the firm of P. Lorillard Co..
to get additional information regarding the erect
the tobacco trade OF the protracted panic and the
general movement Tor a reduction Of wages. Mr..
LOrillard said that the tobacco manufacturers
appear to be the least affected by the present
financial prostration. He had gone through the
panic Of 1867 and through other periods OF trouble
but had found that the consumption OF tobacco
had very little variation. People must be reduced
to the last extremity when they give up their
tobacco Most OF them will rather forego their bread
than their chew. Mr.. Lorilard thought the tobacco
country, and that before thirty days are over new
supply would have to be got TO satisfy the current
demand or course the present financial crisis had
an uniavOrahe influence on the tobacco business.
Before the panic Mr.. Lorillard's firm sold $780, 900
worth day: now the sales average about $l2, 900
day His factory was Stacked up to reduce the stock
In anticipation OF The panic; hence few had to be
discharged, and the force now at work Is about
two-thirds OF the number employed before the
financial troubles. Although there was general
cry for reduction OF wages, Mr.. Lorillard did not
for the present intend to reduce the pay Of his
workmen. II the present unfavorable state OF
affairs should continue, he would lower the
wages OF some OF his high-priced men, such
as superintendents, &c, but he thought The pay
of the ordinary hands low enough already as they
could scarcely support their families with less than
they are getting. Mr.. Lorillard further remarked
that he foresaw this panic, and made preparations
accordingly at the very outset. The tobacco bus-
ness being one which is generally transacted on
short time he found no other trouble in making
collections than the difficulty OF getting exchange
q few days ago. The only drawback to the tobacco
business was the enormous tax, which amounted
to about forty-fve per cent on the sales. This
amount had to be paid in currency TO the Col
lect0r. His firm would pay this year about
$1,000, 600 on about 81, SOC, 900 sales.

l. HYDaopHoB1A IMAGINARY ?-Medi-
cal men are beginning to suspect that in
many cases imagination is to great de-
gree instrumental in developing hydro
pho!ia. 1t is we'll known that the di-
sease seldom appears before the eighth
day after incubation. The period OF
Incubation, as medical men term it, is
often seven or eight weeks. and cases
have occurred in which the spasms have
not s,ipervefIed until seven years after
the bite. THIS fact has led physicians
