MILLS WILL CURTAIL.
New EnRIand Manufacturers ID
Not Like the situation.

Boston. April 20-In cotton mill cir
cles in this city 1t is expected that an
extensive curtailment of production Will
be made in several of the New Eng
land States during the latter part OF
April and the first of May. In the
last few weeks, numerous concerns, al
though running on full time, have
been reducing the consumption Of cot
ton and consequently the production.
The recently developed tendency to-
wards lower prices for cloth and the
Indifferent demand for many lines OF
goods have induced manufacturers 20
proceed with caution, and in some cases
orders have gone forth from local mill
Offices to- run the machinery on short
time. AS the season advances further,
retrenchment is expected, unless the
situation indicates an early improve
ment.
In conjunction with the curtailment
in Fall River, where about fifteen cor
po1'ations, employing $4,000 operatives
are shut down two days each week,
1t is estimated that mills elsewhere in
this state and Rhode Island, employ
ing total of about 10000 hands, are on
short time.

The Hearst men. headed by George

though the Hearst men won their point,
there Is nothing to prevent Olney del
egates from presenting resolutions to-

night that IL such resolutions were
passed they would be Illegal. and amy
attempt to bind the district delegates
would be laughed at in St. Louis.
The state committee refused to al
