From the above the reader will read.
ily understand the exact nature and
scope Of the investigation, the results Of
which are herein briefly summarized in
tables showing comparative statement
of the increase and decrease OF produc-
ton and wages in the sixty-seven in
dustries covered. With view OF econ
omizing space, l have classified trades
under the heading Of industries.
That is, in the clothing" industry are
included all those trades or establish
ments manufacturing articles Of wear
ing apparel; and SO, too, with the
metals and metallic goods" "agricul-
tural implements" ETC., etc. Under
Clothing" are included no less than
1856 distinct trades.
COMMENT Is NEEDLESS.
It is needless to comment upon tho
separate figures or the totals included
in the above table; they tell their own
story simply and with absolute truth.
II appears that there was net increase
in wages OF 1887 1926 90 in the year
1891, as compared with tho amount
paid in 1890, and net increase OF pro-
duct;on Of S3l, 1875. 1870 6S in the year
1891 over that Of 1890. A simple analy-
sis OF this table further demonstrates
the interesting fact that Of the sixty
seven industries covered IL per cent
show an increase either Of the wages
or product, or both, and that there
were no less than S0,7l7 ilaanceS Of ndir-
iduGl increase Of iragea during lIe same
yedr.
The following table, showing the in
creases and decreases OF the average
yearly earnings Of employees in the year
1891 over 1890 is then presented:
