DESTRUCTIVE TO COTTON FACTORIES.
PLAIN WORDS FROM TREASURER COOLIDGE, OF

TRADE MILLS BILL.

Manchester. " H., Oct. (specaD.-At the annual
meeting to-day of the Amoskeag Manufacturing Com

I'm the country sensation created by the stand
taken by Treasurer T. Jefferson Coolidge I'm presenting
his annual report In addition to being treasurer OF
the Amoskeag Company, Mr. Coolidge IS president OF
the Stark and Amory corporations, both large concerns
After reviewing the highly satisfactory years work.
Mr.. Coolidge says
ave ought to expect fairly profitable business Tor
the next few years, and II not for the growth
Of the free-tradc feeling, should have but little
anxiety You are well that It is simply i'm
possible TO manufacture colored goods and fine yarn
without protection. According to the most exact
figures, picker hands, carders, mule splnners and
receive in this country from 40 to so per cent
mora than in England while carpenters, machinists
and paid double. If, therefore. the prod
ucts Of English labor could be imported free, we
should have reduce labor about SO per cent 1t
would probably be impracticable to reduce wages
sufficiently to meet this difference. 1t would simply
mean closing the mills, or running them on coarse
yarns The yarns already made In as great
quantities as the country use, and II all the mills
were turned on to these heavy yarns too many would
be produced and most of the cotton mills in New
England after a long struggle, would have to close.
To Judge by the Mills BILL the trade party would

Four years ago Mr. Coolidge was an ardent supporter
of Mr. Cleveland.

The shutting down Of the Bay State Refinery, fol
lowed by the closing OF the largo refneries OF

caused something of stir in lower Walst Notwith-
standing the fact that 1t was declared at the New

people went to the Office repeatedly yesterday to
see Theodore A. IIavemeyer president Of the Sugar
Trust, In regard to the matter. Mr., Havemcyer
was not at HIS office, however, during the afternoon.
Callers were told that he could probably be found
at the refneries in East Brooklyn, while those who
went there referred back to the NewYork Of
flee, No. III wall-st None Of the members of the
firm could be found either.
Mr.. Seares, treasurer Of the Sugar Trust, when
seen by reporter at No. 112 WaLst., at a late
hour in tho afternoon, said that Mr. Havemeyer had
not ordered the shutting -down Of either company.
I" The trust" he said, has had nothing to do with
their closing. The Bay State Refinery and those of
DC Castro Dormer are precisely parallel cases.
They have shut down because the supply of sugar
is greater than the demand. The latter company
usually shuts down at this time Of the year, when
the demand is especially light, the other neigh
boring refneres amply adequate to supply the
market They probably Will not begin operations
again until next spring, perhaps in May"
Nearly 1000 men paid off and discharged
from the refinery In Kentave Brooklyn, at the end
Of their days work yesterday The men stood around
the refinery in groups and strong in their
condemnation Of the Sugar Trust, to which they laid
the blame for the situation Of affairs Some Of

had never before been such a wholesale discharge
Of employees. They had been told, however, by the
principals Of the company that as many men as
possible would be taken Of during the shutdown
superintendent Peterson said that the fifty men
