ANOTHER SUFFERING INDUSTRY.
MANUFACTURERS OF MOTHER OF PEARL ARTICLES
INJURED BY THE low TARIFF.

INJURED BY THE low TARIFF.
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
SIR: / read your article the pearl button In
dustFy I'm this country, OF which you have given only
the true facts, with great pleasure. All you say to
the present condition OF that profitable business
both to wOrkmen and TO employers at which there
could be fully $1,000 10000 persons employed IL
the tariff such would protect the manufacturer
from the prison and pauper labor of Europe, Is per
fectly true But that IS not the only industry thai
will be injured by the driving out Of the pearl button
manufacture.
There IS also the pearl cutting and grinding, the
manufacture Of pen knife and table knife handles, and
all articles made from the mothcrof pearl she'll, and
only part Of the shell he used In this business
the balance is worked up into buttons, It cannot
be used for any other article so that If the tariff
of pearl goods Will also have to join the button
makers In finding something else to make a living al
And this Industry supplies all the makers of pocket
and table cutlery in this country with all their pearl
handles It would also seriously affect the last named
all the pearl handled cutlery made In this country.
New-YOri State, Connecticut and Massachusetts
would be the chief sufferers, by the throwing out oi
employment of the several thousand mon employed in
the making and finishing of pearl handled cutlery.
There would also be thereby opened one OF the best
markets In tho world to tho English manufacturer,
and the lack of any American competition would give
tho English full control OF this market, which would
not decrease tho price Of pocket knife, but Increase
It 20 per cent.
stand ready TO prove my assertions TO any one who
may wish 10 talk with the subject. giving every
the privilege of Judging for himself whether Free
Trade or Protection would be best for this country
