HITS AMERICA HARD.
Articles Named in Import Curtailment
Come From Here.

LONDON, June 3.-The latest order
in council curtaiiing imports-wlich
was announced yesterday ana will be-
come effective on June s - strikes a
severe blow at American exporters, as
most Of the articles on the list come
from America.
Cash registers are imported almost
exclusively from the United States,
and England lately has been big
market for ali types of cash registers
and adding machines Ia the case of
hops, Of which the Pacific coast is a
heavy shipper, considerable exemp-
tions will be allowed. The reduction
probably viii be about 25 per cent.
Other articles on the list, including
sewing machines, wringers and man-
giles, are imported in large quantities
from the United States.
The latest restrictive order is
tempered for American exporters by
news that the restriction on the i'm
portations of starch and dexterin,
which is shipped in enormous quaint.
ties from America, has been removed
as the result of protests by the Man
chester cloth manufacturers.
