An Unusually

Yesterday the fair buildings and

Exhi-

country. Scores of ladies arrived with
articles of fancy work, bric-a-brac, or
some other thing, which they contribut-
ed towards the success of the fair. That
part of the main building heretofore de-
voted to the restaurant has been out aside
for the ladies' industrial depar meat and
It is safe to say that never before was
there such a collection of ladies work in

A Few Facts About "all.
some time ago an Orange firm of
batters—(lore Bros. a Dykman—impor-
ted slot of hats from Belgium, which
they placed among their regular homo-c
made goods. Under the ad valorem duty
of 30 per cent. they paid a duty on the
market price as fixed In Belgium, which
gave themafinc grade of bat for less
money than they could produce here.
The stock was sold 011 and the profit is-
slized wasso much more than that on
their own goods that they went. into the
business on a large scale. Dividing parl-
nPrship with the Orange maker, they
formed a new copartnership with repres-
antativcs of other makers in Orange and
rented a big store on Broadway, New
York, which they stocked with foreign-
inadc goods. A fire destroyed their
stock, but the scheme of importing bats
reached Chicago and a syndicate or
combination of jobbars ti: (c was formed;
and; air th's day the ills bl'n passed
the House, 82.000 doze-n foreign
bats were received in this country
and consigned to the Chicago parties.
Thus? we imported 1,000,000 hats—en-
ough tohavc kept 40 but shops in this
vicinity, turning out 100 dozen a day,
busy for six days in the Week for nine
months. The importation of hats the
present year, it is estimated, will reach
3,000,000, or enough to keep 40 shops
turning out 100 dozen a day busy for
two years!
The discussion about “raw fur" affect-
ing the price of hats to the consumers is
the veriest boob. The for on the skin.
comes in duty free now and the manu.
factored fur—known to the trade as “raw
matcrial"-——is taxed 20 per com. This duty
has caused the cutting of for to be start-
Pd in this country, until there are now
15 cutters of furs here and there is no
necessity for a pound of dutlable for to
be used in this country. Further, the
competition among manufacturers has
made for cheaper 10-day than ever before
known in the history of the trade.
As to wages, take tho price paid in
furring mills, ascompared with that of
Belgium. A feeder gets here 81 a day;
in Belgium 50 cents a week; coners ro-
ccivc 2 a day; in Bel gium, 50 cents;
IIIr-Zeners, bere,$3a day; in Belgium,
titlcents (coners in Belgium get 5 cents
an hour and hardeners 8 cents). These
figures are for 10 hours a day. A ma-
chine here which employs one feeder.
two concrs and one hardener costs to
run, 38a day. The labor for running
the same machine in Belgium costs but
$1.8“ aday. A difference of over sun
per cent. With such a vast difference
in the price of labor, if manufacturrd
for was admitted duty free it would
make no appreciable difference in tho
cor-t of a hat to the consumer.
Wages are the result I ' competition.
If wages are. low, when the Competition
is between 50,000,000 of people, will thcy.
not be lower when the competition is be—
tween 1 ,,,000000000? Today an Amati-1
can pays 8110 for what an Englishman
can buy for $100, while the wageoworhl
Pr of protected America earns $170 and
the inhabitant of has trade England
only Imus 8100. This, of course, gives a
bola In» In the American s pocket of $60.

The l'also Rumor About the Importation
of flats.
No hats of far or wool of any con-
sequence are imported into this country.
We shall begin and and this article
with that proposition. and shall prove it,
in some detail, in order to base an im-
portant conclusion on it. A further
reason for proving it is that once in four
years the politicians work the “hatters’
score" as it is called at their head quart-
ers, and they begin, it by the falsehood
that large importations have just come,
or are just coming, made possible by the
cheap labor in. batting in England and
Belgium. Other forms of this scare as
it is worked are that. this shop will be
doped Ii Hancock or Utaveludiulocwd.
or now if Cleveland in vii-elected, or if
the Mills bill passes; or pictures are cir
culatcd ofa poverty stricken home with
the fire out and the cupboard empty—
lablod "free trade,” side by side with a
prosperous looking family with a piano,
3 library and a billiard table—all labeled
“the Republican idea."
We have said in this column that not
over three per cent. probably not over
one per cent. of the fur hats worn in
this country are imported. Since
writing that, we have diligently follow-
adout all traces of foreign hats that we
could hear of, and we find that even the
one per cent. is a myth.
Therein a class of slack youth that
meet at the Hotel Brunswick in New
York, and in two or three of the club
houses, that wear English hats, not be-
cause they are better or cheaper, or as
cheapasour own, but simply because
they are English. Aside from this dude
trade there is no demand for English
bats. They are heavy and clumpy and
nobody not affected with the English
craze would be seen in one. The whole
thing does not amount to a quarter,
probably not to an eighth of one per
cent. of the felt hats worn in this
country.
For the year ending June 30, 1887, the
last yrar for which the returns are com-
plete, there were imported $031,146
worth of hats of grass, straw, willow,
etc , including hats of fur. If they had
all been fur hats they would have bePiI
less than three per cent. of the hats
made here. Butso far from being all
for hate or chiefly fur hats, they were
nearly all straw hate. as you may well
imagine when you stop to think that id‘
that schedule are included all the pans.
ma hats and all the Leghorn or other
straw bonncts for ladies and children.
We had the records of the treasury de-
p: 'tment at Washington examined, we
went to the chief of the statistical de-
partment of the New York custom
house and found that a large part of the
invoices of importh bats showed that
they were straw hats, that the rest did
not designate the hats as of straw, grass,
hair or fur, but a large part of those not
designated were known to be of straw,
etc., and not of fur, and the head of a
large bondtd ware house told as that
while it was his duty to personally see
every case opened from which a sample
was taken, and while he had seen case
.after case of straw bats, he had never
‘ seen a case of for bats.
The importations are almost literally
confined to two or three cases at a time

This is absolutely false. ‘ Believing it
to be false on the strflrgtb of outer evi-

to make assurance doubly sure, address-
ed a letter to the treasury department
where all the statistics of imports down
to the last dollar are kept, and in due
time we received the reply that no other
schedule included hats, as partly formed
or finished bats, and that hats in what-
ever stage of manufacture were dutiable
as hats at 30 per cent. on their value,

circulated that hate all finished but the
