OUT OF A JOB.

About Three Thousand Hatters Idle In

. tories Compelled to Close by Reason OF
Inability to Get Hold of Money.
ORANGE, n. j., Aug. 2s.-This is the
largest manufacturing district for soft
felt hats in the country. There are
some eight factories in this, the Orange
district, with maximum output OF
over 500 dozen hats per week. and Civ
ing employment to about 5000 opera
tives. Fully one-half of these are
heads of families, so that the number
of persons in the Orange district de-
pendent upon the hat industry Is se-
tween 1000 and 10000. There is not
single one of the great houses of indus
try running to-day-all have closed
down.
The cause is the financial stringency,
which renders it impossible to obtain
funds for running expenses. Sales
men in the .west-the great market for
hats-report that stocks are light and
that they have booked plenty of or
ders, but that collections are almost
nothing. Some few Of the hat factor
les are opening their doors for n day or
two at time and for a limited number
of men in order TO get out a few orders,
for which cash is expected, but these
are the exception to the rule.

ROME, Aug. s7.-The riots in the past
few days in Naples which have gener-
ally been attributed to striking cab
drivers, has a deeper significance. The
troubles had their origin in the anti
French agitation following the Aguis-
Mortes massacre of Italians by French
men. The demonstrations at first were
intended solely as expressions Of in
dignation against the French. Tho
cabmen took advantage of the excite
ment to strike for higher wages and
the rioting which then occurred had
no connection with the Aguis-Mortes
affair.
The troubles of Thursday last were

apparently concluded that their cause
was losing one. But in creating dis
