10 the Tobacco Leaf-Chronicle.
A good deal of excitement was
caused In Guthrie Saturday night by
the shooting of a negro.
Police Cheek, who was put on duty
lst for Saturday night, while at.
tempting to arrest negro from
Springfield, by the name Of Gardner,
shot and fatally injured him.
1t seems that the negro was drink
ing, and when arrested knocked the
officer down. Immediately the po-
lIceman shot him and the negro fell
rs II dead. When Cheek approached
the negro he arose and commenced
to run. Then the officer shot twice,
and Gardner was caught and carried
to the court house. There he re-
malned until he died Sunday even
ing.
Police Cheek had to be watched
Saturday night for fear the negroes
would mob him, and Sunday morn
ing he left Guthrie.
The Episcopalians had preaching
at the Hail Sunday. Bishop Dudley
preached to large and attentive au
dience. After preaching three were

TOBACCO.


what yirginian Says of 1t and the Tariff.
The New York Sun of March II prints
an interview with typical Virginian,
a representative of a large tobacco house
of Richmond, from which we extract as
follows:
"The tobacco industry of Virginia is a
great one. and is constantly growing great
er. In Richmond alone we have forty-seven
factories The output Of the smallest is
half a million pounds annually. 1t is .
fact that about 10000 men are employed
in these factories, and that, except the
foremen, nearly every one of them is a
colored man You can find no such con-
dition of affairs in any northern state.
1--WE lead the world in the manufacture
of all-tobacco cigarettes and cheroots. The
demand for these is constantly on the in
crease, but it does not appear to diminish
the sale OF the paper cigarette, to which
you make such general objection.
Where is the best leaf teoacco for
American cigars and cigarettes raised {?
IN New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania,
Virginia and Florida. The latter is loom
ing up as a great tobacco-producing CEN
ter. Has the new tariff law been of adj
vantage to American manufacturers of
cigars? Well. yes; we all make more
than we did.
Yet we would almost wager that this
typical Virginian" votes with the
enemies of the great industry which he
describes

NOT AN EXPERIMENT.
Tinplate Manufacturing IN Solid Basis
Here.

ttnplhte N N Soilu ihdhls
Here.
A correspondent who has been deceived
by the Misrepresentation of the free-trade
press writes this;
II read in the different papers of the
manufacture of tin in Chicago by Norton
Bros. The ST. Paul Pioneer says that
this firm import their tin from Wales,
their iron plate also from Wales, also the
men who dip the plates are imported
from Wales. Win you give us the facts
upon the subject 2"
l. The Norton Bros import their Tin
ore, though not from Wales, because as
yet it is not produced in great quantities
in the Unieed States. But the Welsh
manufacturers import most of their own
ore, because the British mines do not pro-
duce nearly enough for the supply of the
British tinrlate works At this point
please to keep in mind that tin ore comes
duty free to the United States, and will
do so until JAY |, 1898, when an expert
mental duty will be placed on it, to be re-
pealed in 1895, unless it shall appear that
protection has so stimulated the produc-
ton as 10 result in yield of more or less
than 5000 tons of casslterite, bar and
block tin yearly.
@ While experimenting as to the abili
ty of American workmen to make tjnplate,
Norton Bros. did use a small quantity of
imported steel mot from plates, because
the American mills were not making
of the proper thickness, but this was dur
ing the experimental stage only. AS soon
as they found that tinplates could be
manufactured by American workingmen
they arranged for a supply of American
made plates.
g. The st. Louis Stamping company
has passed the experimental stages and is
turning out from 800 to 400 boxes of tin
plate daily, the steel or iorn plates used
being of American make.

THE ANSWER TO RuDiNI.
ur. Blaine Had IL Ready Hut the
president Held It Back.

WASHINGTON, ApG-l A. A climax TO
the Italian affair, SO far as it can be
brought to a climax on this side OF the
wafer, has been expected as the result
of the departure of he president,
With the alarming rumors coming
from Rome it vas not believed that the
president would leave here without re-
spending to tie letter OF Minister
Rudiui, No answer to the Rudini note
was made by cable or letter up TO
to-day,
The fact is that Secretary Blaine
peuued his answer TO the Rudini state
ment shortly after it was received from
Italy, The Secretary in turn laid this
answer before President Harrison, but
the latter chose To be very deliberate
with lhe matter. SO far as Secretary
Blaine has been concerned the reply
might have gone some days ago,
but Il waited the formal Endorsement
of the President. This ndorsemeut
has not Yet been gwen.
II Is said that the response to the
Rudlul note was carefully discussed
saturday during the presidents call on
Mr.. Blame, as the executive desired TO
have the matter out Of his way before
he began his trip But the response
did not leave here, by cable or other
wise
Another consultation was held be-
tween the president and Secretary
Blame, and IL is understood that tinal
understandings was reached concerning
the nature of the reply TO Rudlni. This
will undoubtedly be cabled, aud it is
probable that the full text OF the reply
Is IN Rome by this time.
The main purpose OF the president
has been 10 secure some Official infor-
nation from the authorities at New
Orleans, in order that he might act
from official Intelligence and not upon
the somewhat sensational reports winch
have come from New Orleans 10 this
eud he instructed Attorney
Miller TO institute an inquiry, but rs
Yet no Information has been received
from the federal authorities at New
Orleans

CHICAGO, April l4.--At the annual

A. G.. Spaulding declined reelection to
the presidency and J. a Hart was selected
TO succeed him. Hart had wide expert

of any professional game is downward,
