GAINING ON ENGLAND,

The wonderful development Of cot
ton manufacturing in this section has
very properly caused the eonth to be
regarded as q dangerous industrial
rival not only of New England, but
of old England as well
With all his faults John Bull is
candid he has the sense to see
when he is losing ground, and is
frank enough to admit it
In a recent interview Mr. s. An
drew, secretary of the Oldham Master
Spinners' association, gave his yer
sion of the reasons why English
cotton manufacturing is not more
prosperous
stTime was when Greet Britain
was the chief cotton spinner in the
world" said Mr. Andrew, "but
though it is true that Great Britain
cootains more cotton spinning spin
dies than any other country. yet such
40 increase has been taking place in
the rest of the world during the past
few yesrs that this country is losing
ground in the universal competition
Since 1885 the spindling spindIes of
Great Britain have only increased
about 5000, ,000, while in the rest of
the world they have increased 22,
100000. In other words, while we
have increased by one spindle the
rest of the world has increased by
over four.
ssThen, again. the time was when
our spindles in Great Britain formed
more than one half of the total nun
Der in the world, and the hours Of
labor, though limited to 56a, were
able to maintain their position in the
universal race. But today the hours
of labor stand as follows Great
Britain has 100000 spindles, and
the hours of labor are limited to 56a
(and even that number has recently
been reduced by the introduction Of
the cleaning questieD), while the rest
of the world owns 100000 spin
dies aud runs an average of 703
hours, making "a hours per week OF
difference in the nominal time run.
This must again be serious ind1ca
ton of the trend Of the cotton
trade /"
The clearess seers aud the most
practical observers agree that the
south is destined to become the
great cotton manufacturing center of
the world and it will Dot be very
long either before that event occurs
