The suspension of night work, or of the partial operation of spindles, as agreed among spin- ning mills this year, has resulted in a marked decrease in the output of yam.

Taking the production for this mouth at 75,000, the total for the year will not exceed 877,000 bales, a decrease of 107,000 bales on the figures for last year, and is even less in com-
