THEY WON 7 BUY SPOT
Manchester Spinners Bar Our
Staple For a Month.
The Result Will be the CIosing of Scores Of
Mills. Sharp Criticism Of Liverpool
Spectators.
(By the Associated Prcss.)

Manchester, Sept. AT a meeting
of the cotton spinners here today it was
decided with practical unanimity not to
purchase American cotton during the
month of September. Four -fifths of the
employers in the trade were represented.
1t is anticipated that the decision will
lead to the closure of scores of mills for
several weeks. Only three manufactur-
ers opposed the resolution, and their OBJ
lection was that it was not strong enough
and that it should bind the trade to stop
the consumption of cotton and not mere
ly to stop purchasing it.
The meeting was private, but it was
ascertained that during the discussions
there was sharp criticism of the Liver
pool spectators, who it was declared,
made the crisis worse by gambling.
Eventually the meeting adjourned until
September 21st, when the situation again
will be considered
The meeting summoned for September
21st is to reconsider the situation, "and
if necessary to take more drastic meas
ures." Yesterdays meeting was open to
all spnners, whether connected with the
Federation or not Members of the North
and Northeast Lancashire Spinners and
Manufacturers Associations were also
present. These had met earlier in the
day and it was understood that they were
willing to cooperate with the fedora
tion
In the course of the meeting the accu
sation was made although not formally
discussed, that some of the promoters Of
the meeting had been fortifying their
own position by large purchases of COZ
ton since the conference was summoned.
Disclaimers, however, met with cordial
acceptance. Replying to complaints that
the resolution was inadequate to meet
the crisis, the promoters admitted that
this had become more acute since a meet
ing was called, but they said it had been
deemed eXpedient to secure united ac-
ton throughout the whole trade before
attempting to strengthen the terms of
the resolution.
The chief interest in yesterdays pro-
ceedings is as to whether they will has
ten the end of the corner which has been
established. MIR. Wawdsley, a leading of
fetal of the operatives union is hopeful.
He says that fortnight's loss of work
should not seriously affect the operatives
The Bolton spinners use Egyptian cot
ton chiefly and are therefore little af-
fected. The Barnes Company of Farms
worth, one of the largest firms depend
ent upon American cotton, have already
placed their four mills on short time for
four days a week; and it is feared that
many mills will be obliged to close.
IT WILL ENTAIL SUFFERING.
London, Sept. S.-(Saturday.)- 1.-The
morning papers comment upon the Sc
riousness of the crisis which has arisen
at Manchester where suffering is likely
to be caused by the enforced idleness of
operatives especially if, as is not impossi
BILE. the stoppage continues into October.
The prospects of a satisfactory Amer
lean crop are regarded as slender.
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1900-09-08

there was no immediate return. That
with large purchases of timber lands, he
supposed, caused the embarrassment. The
failure of the Tunis Company will not af-
feet other concerns here. 1t will not
affect prices if the receivers continue to
sell at the schedule rates. 1t is said
there are already many orders on file,
which if filled, will consume a large part
of the stock on hand.
The plant has a capacity for 100, 900 feet
a day. The mill here is the chief mill,
the one at Baltimore having been burned
several years ago and not rebuilt. That
mill was insured so that the company
suffered no great loss.
This gentleman said also that the men,
bers of the Tunis Company had the re-
spect of the trade and that the other
members would assist them in returning
to business.

IN RECEIVERS HANDS.
The Tunis Lumber Company Of Norfolk is in
Deep Waters.
(By the Associated Press.) }

Baltimore, Md, Sept. 7.-Theophilus
Tunis, of this city, president of the COM
pany, and H. B. Nichols, of Norfolk, Va,
were appointed receivers of the Tunis
Lumber Company today in the United
States Circuit court
An official of the company states that
the receivership was rendered necessary
by the unsatisfactory condition of the
lumber markets, making it impossible to
dispose of the company's large stock of
manufactured lumber except at great
sacrifice. 1t is believed by the company's
officials that the receivership will be Of
short duration.
Similar action was taken in Norfolk,
Va, yesterday.
A statement of assets and liabilities is
being prepared at the company's offices,
but until it is completed the receivers
refuse to estimate the amount of eithr
the liabilities or assets.
THE COMPANY MAY PAY OUT.
Norfolk, Va, Sept. 1.-THE troubles of
to a climax by the application filed by
to aclimaX by the application filed by
Mrs. Georgianna Wilson late Thursday
afternoon in the United States District
Court, asking that a receiver be ap-
pointed for the company. Mrs. Wilson's
claim is judgment, confessed by the
Tunis Company for $53, 1888 in the Uni
ted States Court on Tuesday.
Receivers Tunis and Nichols are in
structed to continue in operation all the
Tunis mills until further order of court
They are given full control of all the de-
fendant company's affairs. Captain Mich
os who is now at Pen Mar, has been
notified by telegraph of his appointment
and will probably return Immediately to
Norfolk Mr.. Tunis is in Baltimore, where
the lawyers in the case were in confer
ence yesterday.
The announcement of this receivership
was great surprise. Not only the lum-
Der trade, but all the business men of
the city were ignorant of the embarrass-
mcnt of this large and reputable firm.
A prominent member of the lumber trade
here, in speaking of the firm to a re-
porter stated that the indications are
