CHICAGO CLOTHING TRUST.
Prices Said to be Threatened With In
crease, Wages to be Cut

Chicago. Jan. 26.-The local clothing
manufacturers admit the formation of
THE National Clothiers' association. .
Every manufacturer of Importance in
the city has Joined and all the others
will be taken in.
Beyond the bare statement that the
trust was formed for the purpose of
reforming abuses in the trade and Sc
curing freedom from unjust eXactions' .
no information is accessible. 1t is gen
orally believed to be purely and simply
a trust, formed for the sole purpose of
raising prices and cutting the existing
wage scale, wherever such action is pos
SibIe.
Since the failure of the big clothing
strike last year wages have been re
duced to the lowest point in years. The
union officials say the time is ripe for a
further cut.
The man at the head of the combine
is AdOlph Nathan, of the firm of Kuh,
Nathan & Fischer, who appears as sec
ond vice president. There are ninety
clothing manufa cturers in Chicago, and
they employ about $1,000 hands,
