Foreign Prices Reduced by Our Tar,s.

Foreign Prices Reduced by Our Taria:
Since foreign manufacturers Of hosi.
cry have greatly reduced their prices in
order to get over the Mckinley tariff,
the question may properly be asked,
How do American manufacturers man
age to hold the domestic market against
the foreigners? Many causes have con.
tributed to help, not the least of which
is the lower cost resulting from in
creased production, consequent on the
higher protection granted to hosiery
and the confidence in the future thus
impaired to the American industry.
But there are other minor causes. As
the tariff reduced the price of imported
hosiery, SO it has reduced the price If
materials imported for hosiery manu-.
facture. A dry goods trade paper fur
nishes the following exhibit of the re-
duction in the price Of dyes used BY
