The annual meeting of the ST. Croix cotton
mill was held at the new office of the compa-
ny, in Calls Wednesday. The report showed
that 10000 spindles were now in running
order; that although this was the first year of
running the mill, fair profit has been made
upon the business of the past year, and that
the outlook for the coming year was of very
favorable nature. The mill has manufactured
during the year ending June 80, 1888. about
four and one-quarter million yards of cloth.
The present capacity of the mill is Do, 900
yards per week.
