Business News Cotton Manufacturers Decide To Keep Present Wage Scale Reduction Considered To Be Unnecessary at Present ; Sales at Fall River Con? tinue on Restricted Basis? Contrary to expectations in some cuartera, cotton manufacturers at la.1 River voted to stand by their decision ;o continue present wages without re- , auction. It was intimated, however, . that .eductions might be made before the expiration of the usual six month | agreement period. The question of wages in the cotton | -nills district of New England has ; oeen under discussion for some time, ?,nd many observers had predicted that ? a cut would be announced at the meet ng yesterday, in view of the fact that manufacturers had announced that j *tich a course wae inevitable. The recent statement of William M. Wood, ? ? resident of the American W oolen j Company, that prices anil wages could j not go back to pre-war levels at pres? ent, however, was taken to forecast a ; lenient attitude on the part of manu- I tactnrers at present. Sentiment among manufacturers was that reductions in wages at present , would have little effect on market con- ; Jitions and would impose hardships on ; operatives who are working on short ?schedules. As soon as mills are in a position to put the workers back on ; full time and accept orders on a j stable basis, it is believed that an agreement will !.e reached with the operatives to effect a downward re? vision of wages. Reductions, it was said, mif;ht take the form of elimina? tion of the last two wag? increases, < namely, those ' December 1, 1919, of 12% per cent and May 29, of 15 per cent. Trading in the Fall River cloth mar .ot this week continued extremely dull, ! sales being estimated at no higher ' than 8,000 pieces. What littie inquiry j vas noted was largely for 36-inch low count styles, for which tiiere was ? Moderate inquiry for spot or nearby ' delivery. Prices continued very irregu- ; lar. It is safe to say, however, that the | mill's are not piling up goods to any | heavy 'extent, as practically every I plant is strongly on the curtailment j schedule, which has grown stronger as the weeks go by, until now half a ..ozen mills are closed indefinitely and others are running two, three or four Jays a week. __ FALL RIVER, Mass., Nov: ?6.?The Cotton Manufacturers' Association at a meeting to-day voted to stand by its decision to continue present wages v.'ithout reduction. The meeting fol? lowed a conference in Boston several days ago of mill heads at which the condition of the market for cotton goods was considered and the ques? tion of reducing wages to meet lowered I market prices was discussed. The ac tion of the l.-cal association is under? stood to be the result or" consideration ? of the subject in the light of condi? tions here. LAWRENCE, Mas,., Nov. 26.?The j Uswoco Mills of the United States , Worsted Company were closed in? definitely to-day beep.use of luck of orders. The plant has been running only two days a week. Fifteen hun? dred persons are affected. The Pem berton mills, which employ 1,000 operatives in the making of cotton goods closed to-day until December 13, for similar reasons. ?.-?-,-_? Commercial Credit A large downtown bank announced | yesterday a reduction in its lending rate to its commercial customers from ? to 6 per cent. In making this an? nouncement the bank said this action had been taken in the interest of the public in general. The open market rate on commercial paper rate- continues at 7% to H per cent, but ;t is believed that a decline is imminent. The bankers' acceptance market was active yesterday. Kates of prime bills ? ? re reduced 's of 1 per cent on Wednesday. The general opin ion in banking circles is thai the trend of the commercial money market is ; definitelj toward lower rates on al! : sides. Cattle Hides and Skins Imports Show Decline The importation of cattle 'aides and1 kin-i is falling off, according to the j United States Department of Com? merce. Imports of cattle hides in Sep? tember aggregated 23.061,918 pounds, against 74,0,37,936 pounds, or a de? crease of 50.970,018 pounds from the .-.ame month in 1919. For the nine months ended Septem? ber 30 the imports totaled 227.093,012 pounds, compared with 290,343,178 pounds for the corresponding period <_'" the precedii - year, Total imports of hide: and kins for the nine months were 435,452,050 pounds, against 530. 103,948, or a decrease of 94,741,898 pounds from the imports for the same period in 1919. ? Seek? to interest French Tailors in U. S. Fashion? Nat C. Smolin, of the JUuebird Hat Company, will -ail fo.r Paris to-dav ror the purpose of acquainting tkc French tailors and dressmakers with the ta't<- of the American woman. Much of the merchandise imported from Franee does not meet the taste cf the American woman, in the opin? ion of Mr. Smolin; much of the artistic talent is not utilized as it should be. To aid this situation Mr. Smolin will try t( porsuad-j French tailors and dressmakers to make their output to bet?er conform with American taste. .??. *. ?-.

Big Jewelry Sales Here dear's Wholesale Business Reaches $180,000,000 Jewelry sales by New York whole- I salers last year reached a total of I $180.000,000, according to Samuel S. | Conover, president of the Fidelity In? ternational Trust Company. Wri ing in The Jewelers' Circular, Mr. Conover states that SIOOJOO.OOO of this sum was expended on precious stones, with $35 000 000 for gold ornaments, settings | and plate ware. Silver and silver- . plated wares, platinum and optical j goods sales amounted to $15,000,000 each. Of the gold approximately live- | sevenths was supplied by the United ? States Assay Office and the remainder ] by private assayers nnd refiners. "('redit information in the jewelry | trade," says Y". Conover, "is excep- j tionaliy highly organized. Approxi? mately 35,0o1) dealers report to the j National Jewelers' Board of Trade. A I rate book %f reliable credit informa- J tion is compiled A substantial "fight- j ing fund" is maintained to investigate bankruptcies, and prosecute fraudulent ? debtors. Banks thus rarely lose ? money through jewelry failures. The \ practice among jewelers of using i drafts to assist collections of overdue j accounts is aso a constant source of up-to-the-minute credit information for | the? local bank through which these ] drafts pass. Cooperation from his bank enables the average jeweler to do a much larger business than he otherwise could." Mr. Conover said that at least 30 per cent of the j-ewelry trade's annual sales are made at Christmas time.

G.vslter cv Co. report that the syndicate will probably continue purchases on the basis of pegged prices until 25,000 bales have been taken, and | it is believed this action will greatly j relieve pr?s sur?:', in view of the stop? page of filatures next week. Prices has turned easier in Canton | and China silks because of weakness in I silver exchange. 1 General Asphalt to Issue S 1,000,000 Bonds A special stockholders' meeting of \ the General Asphalt Company Iras been I called for December 7 in Camelen, N. .]., to authorize and issue $4 000,000 ten-year H per cent sinking fund con? vertible gold bonds.

Curb Tone Weaker As Several Stocks Show Sharp Losses General Asphalt Breaks to 41 A on Announcement of Proposed Bond Issue; Industrials Made Declines A heavy tone prevailed most of the day on the curb market yesterday and several stocks showed losses, the most prominent being General Asphalt, which broke to 4l*& on announcement of a proposed bond issue. Indian Fack in esttib ?shed a new low record when it broke through 3 and sold at 2'*?*. Oth? er industrials were heavy, and oils were none too steady. Simms continued weak and set another new low record at 7%, which was the figure for the final sale. As soon as the $4,000 000 convertible bond issue of General Asphalt was discussed orders to sell came into the market from Philadelphia, and severely depressed prices. The close was a lit? tle better than the lowest for the day, but a lass of about four points was recorded. Mining stocks were active and ir? regular. Industrials Sales. Open. High. Low.
