the Eastern mills on medium and coarse
fabrics. and the future looks dark for
New 7ngland. The facilities of manu-
featuring have so increased that In
many lines of goods the existing manu-
featuring establishments can produce q
vast amount more than what the
United States can consume, and Il
seems likely that each year will cause
staSnntion for the Industry and of
course the usual stoppaGe OF the mills
during certain periods. AS a result OF
this continued competition In certain
lines OF goods for the home market,
the prices are low. wages are low and
tariff Legislation cannot help matters,
for the merchant and the jobher will
buy in the cheapest market and that
means southern looms will be engaged
