Brook lyx, Sept. 17. —The em ployees of the American Cordage Manufacturing Company, at the foot of Noble Stieet. Greenpoint, have received the following notice:— The Government of the United States having removed the duty on bagging, it can now be imported free. Bagging is manufactured in India, Germany and Scotland. Wages in these countries are as follows: For weavers, spinners and men laborers, ten cents per day in Ir.dia; thirty cents per day in Germany; forty-five cents per day in Scotland; and other classes in proportion. In spite of these very low wages paid in other countries, the company hopes that it may be found possible to continue the business here. Inquiry is now being made as to the cost of landing bagging here from other countries and on the informa tion obtained the management will determine what course to pursue. It is with much sorrow that the em ployees are notified that under the best conditions that are hoped for it will not be possible to continue to pay the present scale of wages. By about .November 1 it will be decided whether the mill can be run at all and if so at what rate of pay for each class of employees. Mean time the present rate of wages will continue to be paid. The managers of the company appreciate the good work lately given by all the em ployees and while thanking each one now wish to remind them that it is only by extra effort and increased production that the mill can possibly be kept going. The miil employs about 700 hands. The sugar planters in Louisiana are a little late in declaring for a protective tariff. But better late thaji never. If their representatives in Congress had not been willing to vole for free trade for every other industry while expecting the Demo crats to protect sugar the taiiff bill would never have passed the Sen ate and the sugar industry would not be threatened with extinguish ment, to say nothing of the loss this year of bounty already earned. 'J'he sugar planters got a dose of the medicine they were willing to force down the throats of the farmers an 1 manufacturers of the North. If they have at last come to realize the folly of their selfish course the Republi can party welcome their aid. Coui;rn*Hlouiil Conference.
