A short 1898 newspaper article on the over-expansion and financial troubles of Japan's cotton-spinning industry. It reports 65 mills with 773,738 spindles, a surplus of unsold yarn, and competition from Chinese mills after the Shimonoseki Treaty. It also covers the Industrial Bank of Japan's inquiries into mill costs, depreciation and dividend practices, and the conditions it set for loans.
