EBOPUS. N. Y.. July Iii.-—'I‘he heav.
teat mall in the history of Itosornouut
came in for Judge Alton B. Parker to-
day and an enormous number of lot-
tors went out. Almost every state In
the Union was represented in the mail.
The West Shore Railroad and its sta-
tion at Esopus now begin’ to show signs
of the Importance which the railroad
company attaches to the place from It

COTTON WORKERS' WAGES RE-
DUCED.
Claim industry In In’ Poor shape and
Profits Low.
BOSTON, July 15.—-The latest move
in the Fall River cotton manufactur-
ers. who are to reduce the wages 12%
per cent. on .luly 2b. is of considerable
interest in mill offices here. As a num-
ber of the Boston treasurers are out
of town,‘ it is not probable that any
conference will be held this week. The
cotton manufacturing inductry‘is still
in poor shape. and the margin of prof-
it Is exceedingly small on most lines
of goods.
With Fall River on a lower basis for
weaving there is said to be no doubt
that some of the other New England
mills will be obliged to reduce wages.
All print cloth mills usually follow the
Fall River basin and competition is
such that the price paid for weaving
is no small sized factor in the market.
It is not known whether the fine
goods mill ownerswill be forced to
revise their schedules. but it is under-
stood that those in Tim Bédford and
at some of the other Southern New
England towns will consider the wage
question at an early date. .
