Not So stupid as They looked.

The American Wool and Cotton Manu-
facturer has been shown a personal letter
written by Harwick manufacturer-one
of the most prominent in the south of Scot
land, operating 100 broad looms-to an
agent in New York, in which the manufac-
turer asserted that he had actually been
selling goods at loss in this country dur
ing the past four months in order to gain
a foothOld here. If this be true he has
evidently not found American manufac
turers so stupid and averse to improving
their methods of manufacturing as he
expected to find them.
