A practical Illustration Of the way
In which the tariff aids monopoly 10
liking prices lis found In the move-
ment OF the wool market since the
Payne-Aldrch law was passed. Lon-
don Is the great wool market OF the
world, and there the advance on wool
ems for spring delivery Ia between s
and 8 per cent, whereas In New York
the increase Ia from rs to s2 per cent.
This IL due to the fact that Congress
Disseminated against the carded wool
en- manufacturer, who uses the poor
er grades OF wool and consequently
makes the cheaper clothing, and gave
the larger advantages TO the worsted
men, who are mostly In the Ameri-
can Wooden Company, the trust.
They have q rate on wool and its pro-
duets ranging from as per cect to four
times that figure, and have a wide
margin In which to move prices up
or down without fear Of foreign goods
coming In to disturb the prices they
make. The price now quoted, trans
lated into dollars and cents, means an
increase Of from 81 80 to $500 on
suit Of clothing.

that the man may infect the entire %peniten-
