The Iron Trades Review, of London. after dwelling at considerable length upon the h avy disadvantages under which English industries are being placed by the shorter hours of labor which have been enforced during the past few years, takes up the competition of American manufacturers In the following serious manner' "There Is, however, another point of view wh'-nce th.* subject of shorter hours in i> b? vi.-wed in refennce to American industry. The competition of the United States is being Increasingly felt In all great branches of manufacture. This ' rtalnly applies In B specially marked degree to the mechanical Industries. Let any one who desires to reach the bottom facts on this question look Into the con? ditions of tha equipment of our 'cycle factories. He will Bad that the great bulk of the machines used are of Amerl .:ii origin. Let him look Into our boot and shoe factories, and he will find the same fact. I .et him examino the cir? cumstances of our soap and ?uher chemi? cal Industries, and be will find that American soap-making machinery Is now being largely lntroduc-d Into this country. India rubber manufacturers are also Increasingly dependent On the me? chanical Inventions of the Cnlted States. In the Iron and st? -l trades amotinan competition has recently been so succ *ss ful, not oiny m neutral, but In our own home markets, that it has been an ab? sorbing subject of discussion for well on tO two years, and even our coal trade L-i not free from ap'r. h??islon as to the future, while American coal Is being pro? duced for little more than one half of th..? cost of our own.
