The special committee on Japanese competition, representing all sections of the British cotton and artificial silk industries, met at Manchester to-day to receive the report on the breakdown of the Anglo-Japanese discussions. The negotiating committee was thanked for its services and a personal message was sent to the chief Japanese delegate, Mr. Okada, expressing appreciation of tlie unfailing courtesy shown by him and his colleagues during the negotiations.
Speaking after the meeting, Sir Thomas Barlow said that he conveyed to the full committee the official assurance he had received from Sir Horace Wilson that the position would receive immediate and urgent consideration from the Government, who would keep in close touch with the committee. Further conferences would be held with the Board of Trade after the Government had examined the matter and clarified the position as between them and the Japanese Government.
