Deputy Coroner Jenkins made autopsy on the
bodies of Emma Wolf and Carl Silversten, the two
persons who were found unconscious in sailors

and who died Friday, at Chambers Street Hospital.
The doctors were somewhat puzzled by the case, but
they all agreed that it looked much like opium
poisoning The autopsy revealed a curious train

poisoning; In fact the result was something Of a

similar, the same portion of each brain was dis

had the same unnatural colOrlng and altogether the
doctors said that they had never such peculiar
case Dr. Jenkins not at all satisfied with
the result Of the autopsy and he removed parts OF
each stomach and brain for chemical analysis. The
acute castrtis was not apparently due TO poisoning
but 10 alcohol.

THE TEAEsCAL MINES.

George B. Tangeman, head of
large baking mandatory at Cleve-
land, Ohio, inspected the Temescal
tin mines in Southern California.
In view of the fact that his firm
uses large quantity of tin-plate in
its business, his hearty Endorsement
of the increase of the tariff rate on
tin-plate has more than ordinary in
terest. He said: II do not like to
pay higher prices for tin cans better
than other men, but after what |
have seen at the Temescal mines |
am convinced that the Republican
policy as carried out in changing
the rate on tin will have a most
beneficial result in building up a
new industry which will within a
few years give employment to thous-
ands of men and prove of lasting
benefit to the entire people. | had
no comprehension of the extent or
value of the deposit of tin at Tenn
escal. The company is already
crushing forty tons of ore daily and
making $500 pounds of block tin,
and it is evident that The work is
only in its inception. Of course
the industry could not hold up now
without the aid of the tariff on tin
plate. But with the aid of the tariff
| expect to see tin mining and tin
plate making put among the lead
ing industries of California, and
when once the manufacture of tin
plate is firmly established | have
no doubt that, as with all other ar
ticles of large consumption manu-
featured in this country, instead of
paying more, we will be able to pur-
chase our cans of better make and
for less money than imported arti-
cles."

TARIFF PICTURES.

The Mckinley bill increased the
duty on silvered plate glass so far
as it changed the duty of any size
at all. During May, 1890, before
the bill was passed, we imported
62,990 square feet of silvered plate
glass. During May, 1891, we i'm
ported only 36,502 square feet; yet
the former was at an average OF
44.2 cents a square foot, and the
latter averaged Ais cents a square
foot.
Has the Mckinley tariff largely
increased the cost of clothing for
the poor, as the performer" said it
would? The price-lists of whole
sale houses do not say so. For in
stance. American shifting prints,
which sold at 81 cents a yard six
months before the new tariff took
effect, in July last sold under that
tariff at 81 cents yard.
The Mckinley bill raised the
duty on hay from 50 a ton to 81;
as q result of which change our i'm
ports of hay declined from II, sos
tons in April, 1890, to 1889 tons in
April, 1891, thus turning over to
the American farmer the market
for 9,t16 tons. But did the price
to the consumer go up? No; the
imports for April, 1890, averaged
1926 PER ton, while those for April,
1891, averaged $665 per ton.
The Mckinley bill increased the
duty on imported linen thread from
40 per cent. to As per cent, but the
Barbours last January reduced do
nestle button linen threads from
IS cents per dozen to so cents, and
other threads In ike proportion.
Why? So as to push their goods
in the home market that the higher
duty enlarges. And other manu-
facturers, who are equally shrewd,
are doing likewise.
Our imports of wooden cloths in
May, 1890, were 1892, 458 pounds.
Higher duties in the Mckinley bill
cut the imports for May, 1891,
down tc 6S7,720 pounds. But pri-
ces are no higher (July 12) on the
average. On the contrary, the av-
erage price, which, measured by the
imports, was $3.50 cents a pound
last year, is 8.35 cents a pound
now.

COINAGE LEGISLATION.

Secretary Foster has just prepar-
ed campaign document on the
coinage legislation, and he gives it
out to the press associations, with
the information that he has copies
for distribution at the Treasury
Department. Just what reason
there exists for converting the
Treasury into campaign bureau
does not appear, but if it is to be
the dissemination of information it
ought to be accurate, which this
document is not.
On stating the vote on the prop
osition of Mr.. Bland in the House
for free coinage, it analyses the poll,
showing how Republicans and Dem
ocrats voted. But in reviewing the
vote in the Senate on free coinage,
it does not make any analysis, so
as to show that of the AZ affirma-
tive votes Is were Republicans, and
that on the amendment to make
silver certificates a legal tender.
which was carried by a vote of "a
to %, IA Republicans voted in the
affirmative.
Later on in the history there is
very stupid or intentionally wrong
statement. 1t says that on June
IS, when the bill from the Senate
had been referred by the Speaker
to the Coinage Committee, there
was "wrangle," and that the act
ion of the Speaker was affirmed by
vote of III to ia.
By looking at the Congressional
Record, the maker of this false his
tory will find that Mr.. Reed did re-
fer the bill on June IS, and that on
June 10 his action was challenged
By Mr.. Mills, who moved that the
Journal be corrected, to show that
the bill had been improperly refer
red, and without authority under
the rules of the House, and that
the record be striker from the Jour-
nal. There was then "wrangle,"
lasting for the rest of the 10Th and
part of the Goth, the Speaker being
defeated on every vote. The reso-
luton of Mr.. Mills to strike the
reference from the Journal was
adopted by vote of 121 to III,
and by a vote of 1872 to 1870, the
Journal was, as amended, approved,
There is no such vote as that refer
red to in Mr.. Fosters history.
There may be other errors in this
history sent out by the Secretary of
the Treasury. This ought to do for
a sample, and it ought to be enough
to lead the Treasury editor to call
in the copies sent out, that they
may not mislead persons who be-
lieve the Treasury to be truthful.

TME ELECTIONS.

Tammany has again defeated the
Republican nominee for Governor
of New York, J. Sloat Fassett, and
elected Flower. This result was ex-
pected as New York is always on
this side on an off year.
In Ohio Mckinley defeated Camp
bell by about 10000. This is a
victory for the tariff measure, al
though the Silver States have no
reason to rejoice much over this, for
Mckinley is an out-and-out anti
silver man. In the States where
the Farmers Alliance party was ex-
pected 10 poll great vote it seems
that that party fell to pieces, and a
great many of them have returned
to the Republican fold. Iowa has
elected s, majority of Democrats,
but taking the situation throughout
The States that held elections, it is
about stand-off between the two
parties.
