CAUSE OF
REDUCTION
Result of Textile Inquiry
in Bay State.
TOO MUCH CLOTH MADE,
The Committee Opposed to Changing
Working Hours.
TOO MUCH CLOTH MADE.
LIMITATIONS UPON CAPITAL.

Boston, May 1S.-The committee on
labor of the Massachusetts, legislature,
In response TO an order authorizing IL
TO investigate the cause OF the wage re-
duction in the cotton mills OF the state.
has submitted it's report to the general
court. The committee says that II ex-
amined pretty closely the present con-
dition attending the ecetton industyv, spd
found the same to<be much deprssseds
The report reviews the situation
minutely and finds that the principal
cause Of the reduction Is thessrestztn-
crease in production ofeotton goodssat
a time of widespreassssusiness depres-
sion, and the competitions arising there
from 1t also shows that some OF the
mills have not used sufficient or their
earnings in repairs and improvements,
and because of this have continued TO
make the more common grades when the
growing demands of business have been
for finer and better grades.
The committee makes no recommenda-
tions, as the changes suggested by inter-
ested parties are already under discus
sion both at Washington and In the state
legislature. The members advise, how
ever, that the law governing the hours OF
labor in Massachusetts, remain un-
changed.
The report says In part: THE COM
nittee believes that IL nothing else has
been accomplished as the result OF the
extended hearings given. both employ
es and employers understand conditions
better than they did before. The COM
mittee acknowledges that the southern
mills are large competitors In business,
but not sufficiently In the opinion of the
committee TO menace the industry in
New England seriously. Wages paid
cotton operatives in Massachusetts, are
substantially the same as those paid in
other New England cities. In the south
they are much less. On the whole the
committee finds that there Is no over
capitalization. The stock quotations
have fallen off somewhat, but do not
show proportional decline. This indi-
Gates that the holders believe that the
adverse conditions are not permanent"
The committee says that Massachu-
setts Is ahead In relation to laws govern
ing the hours OF labor OF women and
children. 1t finds that considerable
northern capital has been invested In
southern mills, and is of the opinion that
most OF the new mills south are being
built by northern capital.
1T is agreed on all sides that the ma
tional congress should fix the hours OF
labor and In general control labor legis-
lation. so that there may be uniformity
In all the states. The manufacturers
ask relief from some OF the burdens OF
local taxation. and we have gone into the
subject sufficiently to find that the taxa
tion here is much heavier than in the
south"
Concerning Massachusetts, laws gov
erning the hours of labor the report
says: 1T is urged on the part OF the
manufacturers that the law limiting the
/ hours OF labor OF women and children
| 10 5S hours per week be repealed. We

story Of how he became custodian of Adj

Fisher was chief engineer of the Aga
wan. The navy was aiding Grants op-
erations around City Point and Peters
burg. Fisher left the navy in the latter
part Of 1864, and day or two before
he started for the north Dewey came TO
him. and handing him S400 said:
Fisher, wish you would take this
money up north with you and give it to
my father. Tell him that want him
TO invest il for me. IL has been rattline
around my pockets for long time and
is doing me no good. 1t will make a
small nest egg and may come in play
for rainy day."
