Making e Tin.

The only plant at which sheet tin Is
being manufactured in North or South
America Is In operation at the United
States Iron and Tin Plate works at
Demmler Station, Third ward, Nc
Keesport. The fact that this country
has for the last ten or twelve years
been paying nearly $50, 600, 900 annually
to foreign countries, and that not a
sheet of tin wal being made on this
continent, urged the firm, particularly
Mr.. Cronemeyer, n of the members,
to make strenuous efforts toward secur.
ing a protective tariff sufficiently high
to enable them to compete with the
labor of foreign manufacturing cities.
They have put In a much improved
process by Leyshon g. Sons, Of Upton,
England. The gentleman and one Of
his sons have been In McKeesport per-
sonally experimenting the Introduction
Of the plant, which has been placed in
successful operation. The process here.
tofore used consisted Of five operations,
two clippings in grease and three in tin.
BY the new process the same results are
obtained in one operation by inserting
a sheet in n solution Of tin and palm
oil. The cost Of manufacture is won
derfully cheapened, and the quality Of
the product is said to be excellent,
either for sheet or turn work.
The greater part Of the tin imported
to this country comes from South
Wales, where the largest mills in the
world are located. There are mills in
France, Italy, Germany and Russia,
but they make scarcely more than is
used for home consumption. The i'm.

In Trinity college, Dublin, is still pre-
served the skeleton of Cornelius Nc.
Grath, who after his death, at the age
of "a, was found to measure z feet 8
inches in height. When Is years Of age
he was attacked by violent pains, which
were at first supposed to be rheumatic,
but which were afterward surmised to
be growing pains, for during one year
he grew from the height of 8 feet
to that OF 6 feet 8 and "a inch
es. A boy 16 years of age Of that
extraordinary size naturally attracted
a great deal of attention, and a crowd
of men, women and children always
followed him whenever he showed him
self in the streets Of Cork. His hand Is
described as about the size of an ordi.
nary shoulder of mutton; the lasts on
which his shoes were made measured
fifteen inches in length; but for all his
bulk he was very moderate in eating
and drinking All the Year Round.

CURED in 1866, is related by Herr Won
Sybel in the fourth volume Of his book,
''The Founding of the German Empire
by William l." During a dinner Mt the
Saxon embassy, in Berlin, Countess
Hohenthal, the wife of the ambassador,
said naively to the Russian premier,
who sat next TO her, "Do tell me, ex-
cellency, is it really true that you want
to fight with Austria and take SaxonyT'
Prince Bismarck answered, with great
amiability; Certainly 1t is true, dear
est countess. From the very first day OF
my ministry l have thought Of nothing

be troubled with quartering soldiers,

When the ex-chancellor was afterward
anxiously questioned by other diplomat
lists as to this conversation, he was
much amused that the hooking repulse
of an indiscreet question should be
taken seriously. But Herr Won Buest,
remembering his long enmity against
the policy of Prussia. really took pthe
matter in earnest, sent the important
news to Vienna, demanded Austria's
protection, and declared that If Aus
tria would arm at once all the middle
states would stand firmly by her, but
that otherwise they would turn their
backs on her forever. This communi-
cation from Herr Won Buest was not
without influence in the decisions OF
the military circle in Vienna. The
troops in Bohemia, Moravia and West
Galicia were strengthened, so that in a
very short time so, 900 men were ready
to invade Silesia from three sides. while
before only $4,000 men were divided
among the usual garrisons.

Further Particulars,

SAVANNAH, Ga, Dec. 27.-When the
Jail at Jessup was attacked early yes
terday morning the military were about
half mile distant. BY the time the
detachment of the troops reached the
Jail, the mob had dispersed, leaving the
dead bodies of the negroes Jackson and
Hops in their cells. The commander
of the military had suggested to the
mayor that soldiers guard the Jail, but
the mayor said the sheriff could protect
the prisoners.
The Georgia Hussars returned here
yesterday. The Brunswick company
remains on duty by the request of the
mayor. The Hussars say the trouble is
over. They say hundreds of colored
people were taken into the houses Of
leading white citizens and protected
from danger
A Jessup dispatch to the Morning
News, dated p. M, says Mayor Hobbs
has called a public meeting to take
steps to defend the town tonight. 1t is
believed that the negro desperate
Brewer and a large force of negroes are
near the town ready for night attack.
Citizens are arming to aid the Bruins
wick Rifles if necessary.
A special train was run out to the
brick-yards, where Brewer was reported
to be, and detachment of armed men
was sent out as scouts. Mayor Hobbs
had received word from Brunswick that
Ryan, the white man accused of insti-
eating the trouble, was in Brunswick,
but the mayor will not take steps to
have Ryan brought back.
There is still great excitement in the
country around Jessup, but affairs will
probably quiet down soon. 1t is the re-
gion of turpentine distilleries and saw
mills and the Jessup trouble is likely
to disorganize labor for some time to
come.

An Appeal to the Admirers of Henry w.
Grady for Funds to Erect Monument
to His Memory-A $1,000 Starter.

Grady for Funds to Erect Monument
to His Memory-A $4,000 Starter.
ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 26.-The people
of Atlanta have determined to erect
monument to the memory of Henry W.
Grady. A meeting of young men re-
solved on this, and raised S., 900 within
one hour. They have issued the follow
ing address, from which it will be seen
that the movement will assume Ma
tional character:
To THE ADMIRERS OF ii. W. GRADY-No
character in history, ancient OrmOdern, who
bore an entitled name and fell in the ranks
of private citizenship ere he reached his
fortieth year, ever left behind him so many
grief stricken hearts and tear stained faces
or such an abiding sense of irrepar-
able loss as Henry Wooden Grady.
Measured by this comparison, his grand
personality assumes proportions which
could not be comprehended while he lived.
The young men of Atlanta have inaugurated
a movement to erect a monument COM
mensurate with these propositions, not alone
to his memory, for that is imperishable in
the hearts of his people, but also as an in
spiration to future generations of young
men, guild ing their inspiration and ambition
into paths of useful philanthropy and lofty
self sacrificing patriotism. The monument
Is already assured. The unparalleled spon-
taneity of response to the unpublished ap
peal which Jealous frienus made on the first
day of the organization of the monument has
removed all questions as to enough funds be-
ing raised to build glorious tribute to man.
kind. This address is, therefore, issued, not
| as an appeal, but in order to extend the high
privileges of giving to this noble cause, a
privilege we do not wish to confine to any
class or to any locality. While Atlanta
claims him and his monument, and, there
fore, fittingly takes the lead in the move
ment, she recognizes that he belongs to this
whole Republic, and that the whole people
should have the pleasure of aiding in
| the perpetuation of the name and of fame
of him who surrendered his life in an effort
| to bring about peace and good will between
| the sections.

HENRY WOODEN GRADY.

A Public Meeting at Atlanta, Ga, Voices
the Estimate In Which the Late Henry
Wooden Grady was Held - Eloquent
Tributes to His Worth and Work by
Prominent Georgians.
ATLANTA, Ca, Dec. 2I.-The citizens
cf Atlanta paid tribute to the memory
of Henry Grady yesterday by public
meeting at DeGives' Opera-House, pre-
sided over by the mayor, and at which
addresses were delivered by many of the
most prominent people of the city. The
opera-house, which was crowded to over
flowing, was beautifully decorated with
flowers and emblems of mourning. Two
large pictures of Mr.. Grady hung at the
sides of the stage. The exercises were
opened with prayer. The Chi Phi reso-
lutiOns were then read.
Hon. Patrick Walsh, of Augusta, was
the first speaker. He described Grady
as the most gifted and useful public man
of his day. Mr.. Walsh reviewed
Grady's brilliant career as an editor
and orator and added: His last speech
was an impassioned and eloquent plea
for the solution of that great problem
was not to oppress the colored man, but
to elevate him; to enable both races to
live in peace and to work out their mis-
sion in the regeneration of the South.
What he so eloquently said in Boston
represents the firm conviction of his
Southern cOuntrymen, and his death but
emphasizes the truth and force of his
position. The South mourns, and the
North deeply sympathizes with us in the
death of him whose last public utter
ance so touched the patriotic heart, and
the response comes from all sections of
reunited people and a restored Ma
ton"
Hon. Benjamin Hill, in the course OF
fervent tribute, said: Henry Grady
was the great sun of the South, under
whose fervid eloquence the North was
melting into patience, justice, sympathy J
and love. 1t is no exaggeration to say
that he was the great hope of the coun

marks: 'It is no exaggeration to say
| that the humblest and highest, the
poorest and richest, all classes, colors
and creeds, with an unspeakable sor-
row, mourn his death as public calam-
| ity. 1t is no eXaggeration to say that
no man lives who can take his place.
1t is no extravagant eulogy to declare
that scarcely any half-dozen men by
tLeir combined efforts can fill in all de-
partments the places which he filled in
his laborious and glorious life"

blacks lost their lives. The whites
were Deputy Marshal Barnhill, William
Wood and Henry Anderson. The latter
was a hotel-keeper and was accidentally

blacks killed were: Bill Hops and
Pete jackson, shot in their cells in Jail,
and Bill Fluett, called out of his house
and shot. William Wood, Sr., was shot
through the head, but will recover.
Emma Jones, Sally Hops and Hannah
Waltham, negro women of bad charac-
ter, were whipped and ordered to leave

Jackson was arrested coming out of the

TWO TENDENCIES.
The Scheme to Put Congressional Elec-
tions Under Federal Control.

The Scheme to Put Congressional Elec-
tions Under Federal Control.
There is little positive opposition in
the Republican press to the scheme to
put Congressional elections under con-
troll of Federal officials. Here and there
is some apprehension that it will prove
an unpopular measure and hurt the
party, but there is no vigorous dissent
on the ground of principle. The Presi-
dent paltered with the subject in his
message without going out of his tenn
pOrizing attitude toward most contro-
verted measures. The object is, of
course, to control the elections in the
South. If all the officers who form the
election and canvassing boards are the
selection of the central Federal power
and hold positions for long term of
years at the will of the President, there
would be irresistible temptations to
abuse by jealous partisans, and the
party in power would practice strange
self-abnegation and virtue if it did not
avail itself of the machinery at it's dis
posal to perpetuate its power. The bill
introduced in the Senate by Senator
Sherman comprises the most odious
features of the scheme, and will, per
haps, be considerably modified before il
comes up for action. While the ten
dency of the Republicans is toward thi;
arbitrary and dangerous system, the
Democrats, both South and North, are
taking ground for the Australian ballot
method. Recent interviews with the
Governors of both the Virginias, Ten
nessee, Arkansas and other Democratic
States show entire unanimity in favor
of the reform, and they are believed t.
reflect the sentiments of their States
