THE INSURANCE BILL.
EMPLOYERS LUGE DELAY. Bj ToleemDh—Press Association—Copyright (Kcc. December 10, 5.5 p.m.) London, December !). The National Insuranco Bill was considered at an employers' meeting at Manchester, at which 207 North of England trades and 900 firms were represented. The meeting resolved to urge Parliament to postpone the passing of the Bill on the ground that it was neither understood nor sanctioned by the country, and that it gravely imperilled industries. Sir Charles Macara, president of the International Federation of Master Cotton Spinners, was in tho chair. Ho declared that to an ordinary cotton-spin-ning company, on tho profits of tho past twenty-seven years, tho Bill was equivalent to au increase of a farthing in the pound in thn income tax.
