LONDON, October 16.-A correspondent
OF the Times at OLDHAM says: g. The reso-
luton adopted Saturday by the representa-
tiyes Of forty limited companies OF Oldham
TO work on the ShoIt-timc system for an
other month has surprised nobody, Us trade
has not, so far as oldham is concerned, been
much benefited by the experiment as yet.
1t is true that the price OF cotton has fallen
in Liverpool, but The price OF yarn has not
hardened in Manchester, and has, in TACT,
lost ground, and the advantage gained III
Liverpool is thus almost counter balanced.
When the new crop arrives, and the prices
OF cotton fall 10 any considerable extent,
there Will be general rush for 1utl-t1me
operations, and revival OF the old COM
plant concerning over-4roduction. The
position Of many limited companies is very
grave indeed. A few have gone into liqui-
dalton because their loan capital has been
hastily Withdrawn. One Of The largest con-
Germs, with q nominal capital OF $4,000,
which during last year has had to repay
.G40, 900 10 timid loan.holders, has gone into
liquidation this week TO prevent further

American Students in GERMANY.

The number OF Americans who come
to Germany to finish their studies,
writes correspondent ut Strassburg. is
not only large, but increasing. They
study here chiefly medicine, philology,
and music. A few hear lectures on law
at the universities but the origin. the.
DRY, and practice Of German law. as
we'll as the highly abstract and anti
quated method Of teaching it, are
so foreign to our views of jurisprudence
that such students generally themselves
regard their law studies as luxury and
on accomplishment, rather than prac-
tical gain. Though our students are to
be found in nearly every university
town, most OF them gather ut Leipsic
and Berlin. Last winter there were
more American students at Leipsic than
there were natives of all other countries
not European together. The figures
were: Americans, sixty seven; total. sew
enty nine. Austria excepted, no single
European nation sent 80 many students
to Leipsic US America. The chief States
were represented as follows: Austria.
seventy-one Russia, sixty-one Swift
zerland, fOrty-nine Great Britain, nine
teen Greece, fourteen France, four
the United States, sixty-seven. The
majority Of our countrymen who study
in Germany are not wealthy. Most OF
them come supplied with sum which
they think, with fair economy, will last
one, two, or three years. Their cslcu-
lation is based, almost without excep-
, ton, upon the theory that the expenses
of living in Germany are much less than
at home. venture to say that not one
in fifty lives within his theoretical esti-
mate. My own experience is derived
from residence in Leipsic and Strass-
burg, Of nearly two years, with visits to
Berlin, Dresden, and other cities OF
North Germany. 1t is not rare thing
to meet men who say that, had they
known the expense of studying year or
two here to be 80 great as it is, they would
not have come, or would have post
poned their coming. Home Journal.
