James Dobson's View OF tho Effect of Spring.
~s's Frre-wool Bill.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 15.-James Dobson,
an extensive manufacturer of carpets has
the following to cay regarding tho passage
by the present Congress of the Springer
wool bill:
The passage of this bill now would
simply mean the total destruction of about
twothirds of all the wooden manufac tories
III the United States for the very reason
that most OF the manufacturers OF next
falls goods of heavy weights Will be show
Tug their goods for orders next month, and
IL there WAS TO prevail any idea of tho
adoption of such measures 1t would stop
the merchants from buying. AIR merchants
now stocked would have to regulate their
business with new prices. and there is such
u very large mum Der who carry heavy stock
that they would become Insolvent. 1t
would thus create an unnecessary panic,
time.
Now. as to free wool. speaking as n man.
ufacturer. l may say with ample protection
on the manufactured article and regulating
wages at home and abroad, can't see that
il would have any effect upon the Ameri-
can manufacturer. As regards the result of
the election, | think it's effects will be
serious. Manufacturers will make no
fabric until they have absolute orders. The
season before us Will be q hard one, and q
good deal of suffering Is likely TO be en-
tailed thereby. great many people will,
fear, be thrown out Of employ ment."
Cleveland VIII Not Call Extra Session.
NEW YORK, Nov. ia Democratic
paper says that it is permitted to announce
authoritatively that it is the present in
tention of President Cleveland not to call
an extra session of Congress after his in
aaguration In March next. 1t is further
announced that in the estimation. at
present. of Mr.. Cleveland and his closest
friends an extra session would turn out to
be q protitless proceeding. His friends say
that Mr.. Cleveland must have time after
his inauguration 10 look over the ground.
There is natural objection also to the re-
embling of Congress immediately after
the inauguration on the ground that it
would have more or less of an unsettling IN
fiuence on the business OF the country.
