I thoroughly agree with his dedue. tion, and also in his statement that the adulterated cloth has neither the wear or the warmth ot honest woollen goods. Mr. Wallace continues by stating that an expert witness before the Ways and Means Committee ot the 1ntty-tourth Congress. testified that the first class large worsted mills ot the United States had put in the French and German process by which short-wool- fibres could be used. This is a tact which speaks for itself. Quoting further from the same source, an English correspondent of an American paper writes :-“I give designs and partie- ulars tor two most excellent cloths. The worsted panting will make a cloth particularly adapted to the American tasse, and it can be made very well on aeotton backed eloth and mango tilling." Again a trade journal in». technical article tsayic--"The proper finishing of low-grade face goods requires great shin and care, as generally such goods contam a large percentage of cotton in both warp and tilting, the amount of wool being only sttmeient to form a face to cover the cotton, and it is seldom of the best quality. Quoting Mr. Mulhaser, the greatest manufacturer of shoddies in the United States. Mr. Wallace fives the annual eonsumphon of shod y in the United States at 40 million pounds), displacing 120 million pounds of wool. The National Live Stock Association of America puts the figures for 1900 as follows t--(tind this I presume refers tothe U. B, only) .-Stioddy used in 1900--74 million, pounds :displacing tt22 million pounds of Wool, of equal to 72 per cent of all the wool in tne United States that year. In other words it displaced wool naclxghantity to that '1ttt from tah' out ot the 61,41.' , sheep owned in the United States. Therefore but for this shoddy there would have been used 222 million more pounds of wool. V The Hon. Geo. W. Wallace, Sante Fe, New Mexico. in an able article on *' Substitutes for Wool", recites a statement by a commission house in the trade that 90 per cent of woollen goods contain cotton, and that in 45 per cent the nti'ili,1f ot cotton is i ', and. when in a dition to this cotton, the stuff which ma'squerades under a score of aliases, such as shoddy, mango, wastes, tiuekts, loon tiyings, “col extracts, nails, wool stock, manufactur- ed wool jute yarn, &c., the wonder is not that the sales of wool fall offiro largely, but that any wool is used at all. An instance is given of the discovery by accident of the fact that a most reputable (?)and well known manu- facturer. who had a contract to supply the Government with 50,000 army blankets, was found to be stuffing the same with s_hoddy to the tttttgy, 59 "HID "DU- -~-v__-' -7 ___ . per cent. Cotton is also introduced Into blankets made in England. and in some cases, exceeds even 50 per cent of the material used. In the Yorkshire Post's annual trade review of December Br. 1901, a 54 in. cloth is spoken of which sells at Is. 1d. per yd. which is composed oi all shoddy, but is classed as woollen goods. A well-known Yorkshire firm reply- ing to an enquiry on the subject states, -“Theru 18 so much mixing done now-a'days to bring goods in at such low prices, that it takes a very good man to tell what there is in some of the manufactured articles. 1n speaking of the trade of another town in the Heavy Woollen district the Yorkshire Observer says it is noted for its classical cloths, cheap dross meltons. dyed in classical shades, which find their chief markets in Greeeu and the Levantine ports, It all goes well there isa great future for these goods. The twills and scrges produced here are in great favor with wholesale clothiers, and combined with an export demand. asteady trade results the whole year round.. Into the composition of the higher grades a percentage of wool enters, but it is small. The cheap costumes which adorn the windows of many mantle shops are made in this locality. Tweeds and mantle cloths from ls. 3d. per yd. trom another important branch, and a re made largclv throughout this neighborhood. Speaking of' military and police clothes. “strength being the test l there is little room for mango or shoddy, and even the tender wool caused by the Australian drought is not admissible. The manufacture ofartifieiai wools-- and it is scmewhat diMeult to under- stand the designation-is said to be a large industry supplying manufac- turers with a cheap substitute " the real article. It is alga stated that Scotch manufac- turers of tweeds who hitherto used no shoddy, have had to resort to its use in order to compete with the composi- tion of similar articles largely compos- ed of shoddy produced in several Yorkshire towns and elsewhere. The article " Why is Wool so Cheap? " previously alluded to, further states that shoddy is the great feature in the trade ot one at the lending towns ofthe Heavy Woollen District of York.. shire. and it is well known that the mills do turn out an enormous weight ofgoods, the material being composed mostly of shoddy, cotton and the like. fiisreenpenee to eighteenperure per yd (broad width), is the price ot these so called woollen goods, and plenty of attractive labrics are made at less.
