That rim Plate Nonsense.

The State Gazette makes a most
amazing exhibition Of itself this morn
ing over the Chattanooga tin plate
humbug. 1t says
The JERSEY Cry News rushes to the help of its
Newark namesake In the tin plate discussion.
But 1t might better have kept It's mouth smut.
The public might not then have suspected its
ignorance.
Then it quotes our remarks made
yesterday, and in orderthat the whole
matter may be before our readers for
judgment, we reproduce them:-
III chuckle over Chattanooga steel is absurd.
Every one knew that steel was made In Chatta-
nooga.
But where did the tin come froms Is It not
imported Cornish tin laid on the steel sheets by
imported English workmeng
Then the Gazette proceeds to de-
molish us. to prove our Ignorance"
In order to so it quotes from a letter
written by Mr. w. c. Cronemeyer OF
the United States Iron and Tin Plate
Company of Demmler, Pa The ex-
tract given is quite long, but only one
paragraph has any relevancy to the
point at issue. However, we give the
bulk OF the matter to show the petty
juggling that the McKinleyites in
dulge in. Here it is
The only ingredient contained in those plates
which is Of foreign origin is the tin used for
coating (from 2M to 8 pounds OF foreign tin to
every 100 pounds OF American steel plates).
During the last ten years the explanation that
the so-caiied tin plates are not made from TN
light coating OF tin. has been so often made by
the American press generally, mat any person
who yet talks about the impossIbihty OF making
tin plate for want of the tin ore, reveals gross
ignorance.
We simply ask if anything could be
devised more strongly confirmatory of
our position than the above SEN
fences?
THE Gazette next proceeds to show
its own ignorance by a narrow puri-
tanic TRADE against the nude in art.
1t grotesquely says
The only excuse for the nude in art is where
desired attachments OF beauty in thought and
expression can be secured equally well in no
Dfher way
And even that excuse can no longer serve il
lovers of art will take the trouble to Inform
themselves in the rudiments OF comparative
anatomy. Il Is well known that by the study of
this science anatomist can now reconstruct.
from a single tooth or toe nail, the entire struc-
lure OF al extinct antediluvian monster. . .
Now what Is the use Of showing the whole
body when a tooth or a toe nail will do as wellf
Prom either or both Of these the properly in
formed lover Of ART could in his mind construct
he entire form Of the man or woman it is de-
ured TO portray. from the crown Of the head to
he sole OF the foot, in exact proportions in all
he parts.
And when we desire to reconstruct

glimpse at his ears.

Yes, but It seems to us Lingo con-
siderably weakens the effect of this
testimony when in his own testimony
he accounts for the blood on his
clothes by a story about cutting his
wrist with a corn knife. OF course
both stories may be true, but the
diversity of explanation Of the stains
is suspicious.

uUndoubtedly the defence which Lingo offers
In his trial for murder is weakened by the tact
that il hinges chiefly on the testimony Of his
wife. Yet il cannot be denied that there IS a
flaw in the case against the man. The main
point Of evidence against him is that there was
blood on hts clothing. Now his wife swears
that he did not wear the bloody garments on the
day of the murder, and il is also well known
that he often engaged In the occupation OF KILL
ing hogs. -NetrdrS advertiser.

CAR WHEEL WORKS CRIPPLED.
The Great Establishment in Philadelphia
Bad or.

PHILADELPHIA, March 26-The firm OF
A. Whitney g. Sons, car wheel manufac-
turers are financially embarrassed. The
firm is now composed of John r. and James
s. Whitney, surviving sons of the founder
James S. Whitney declined TO give any
details of the matter beyond admitting
the bare facts.
The car wheel works were founded by
Mr.. Whitney. In 1913 when tic works
were built they were among the finest IN
the country An immense trade was soon
built up and the works were in flourish
ing condition. The founder died, however,
about 1874 leaving an estate estimated at
81 ,000,0 00. The management fell to three
sons, but il was discovered that Il daugh-
ter had large dover interest in the prop
crty. The interest or this inheritance
was not paid and the works were mortga-
gcd to SECURE it, Since then the works
have been doing fair business but have
been gradually falling behind the Younger
establishments. They have not sold to
main railroad lines but most of their
wheels have gone to small Southern roads.
Last year the rating of the firm by COM
mercial agencies was cut down to between
$4,000 and $500 600, but their credit was
good at that amount.

suddenly ard mysteriously fallen Ill, pre-
sented to the agents physicians prescrip-.
tions asking for rum,gin, brandy and whis-
XIV. Liver trouble was what allied most of
the inyalids. M.McCarthy Stafford Springs
saloon keeper,h had foreseen the vote of the
town, and he laid in fifteen gallons Of rum,
gin, whisky and brandy before the new
rule became law, and he put it in place
that he thought the license officers would
never find but in less than week Pros
ecuting Agent George w. Eaton had the
whole of Mccarthy medicinal stock.
A curious violation Of the license law
was accidentally discovered by officers at
Hartford one day last week. Daniel j.
Scannell, of l01 Commerce street, who
has license, had been arrested, charged
with selling liquor on Sunday, but the
case against him was not sustained and
he was discharged. Thereupon his sister,
Mrs T. E. Gibson, who dwells in house
adjoining Scannell's, and has no license
to sell liquor, was arrested and accused
of selling rum in collision with her
brother In examining Scannell's prem
ises the officers found that pipe ran
underground from his saloon into snug
little closet in Mrs. Gibson's kitchen. So
really two saloons were doing business on
the strength of Scannell's license. II
Mrs. Gibson's customer wanted rum, that
lady gave peculiar signal, a certain kind
of rap, and Scannell chucked his end
of the pipe into a rum barrel, and Mrs
Gibson pumped rum. If she wanted an
other kind Of liquor she got it in similar
way. She was convicted.

TIE COUNTY COURT.
The Question of Renewing Liquor Licen-


The most interesting and important case
before the County Court which has been
in session at Gladevile for several days,
was the application of Mr.. a. Summer
field for the renewal Of his license to sell
liquor This was test case. Attorneys
were employed by the Prohibtionists and
by the saloon men and the law was elab-
orately argued Mcssrs. Bullitt and Har
din represented the applicant. The coun-
sci for the applicant made strong case
and adduced authorities which seemed TO
raise Il question in the mind OF the Judge
whether he had Il right to refuse a licence
in case where the person and place were
shown to be suitable After the argyll
ment Judge Miller said he would further
consider the matter and if he finally con-
cluded that the law required him to grant
a license, he would resign. The Judge
withheld his decision.

Brief Illness.

New York. March 26.-Lawrence Bar
rctt, the actor, died at l0:4o o'clock last
Friday night in his rooms at the Windsor
Hotel. The news, though it is sudden to
the public, was not unexpected by small
circle of his friends.
Mr.. Barrett had been suffering from a
severe cold for several days, and on We'd
nesday night while playing De Nduprdt
TO Edwin Booths Richelicu, he was seized
with chill.
At the end Of the third part he gave up
his part. which was continued by Law
renee Hanley 1t was thought then that
Mr.. Barrett would be able to appear on
the following night, but when the curtain
was raised on Thursday evening it was
announced that he was too i'll to play.
When he was taken to the hotel on
Wednesday messenger was sent for DR..
p. F. Chambers. The Doctor found his
temperature 1913, and feared pneumonia.
On Thursday morning he called DR.. Henry
r. w llk0r Ill consultation, ilC
found decided symptoms of pneumonia
Mrs. Barrett came on from Boston, and
said she feared the worst. AT her request
they telegraphed for Joseph 7. Oliver of
Boston, Mr. Barrett's family physician.
By this time pneumonia was clearly devel-
oped, but it was thought the patient would
pull through.
DR.. Chambers says that Mr.. Barrett was
conscious on Thursday of the gravity Of
his condition.
Mr.. Barrett was born Of Irish parents
in Paterson, N. j., on April 4, 1888
Brownies history of the American stage
says that his family name was Brannigan,
but this has been denied. His boylsh
fondness for the stage did not prevent his
being put into Detroit dry goods house
at 10, but before long he managed to get
a place in the old Metropolitan Theatre OF
that city. His first speaking part was

His subject was Shakespeare and he open

Lawrence Barrett was my friend and |
was his. He was an Interpreter of
Shakespear TO whose creations he gave
flesh and blood He was the greatest
tragcdian of our time next to Edwin
Booth. He Stunned the questionable, the
valgar and the impure He was thought
full in Eamlet, intense in Othel,o and the
best Cassius of the century. One by one
the players leave the stage and others
take their places. There is no pause, no
one knows what the next scene is to be.

PEACE AT LAST.
The Bloody Hatfield and Mccoy Factions
Bury the Ratchet.

WHEELING, W. VA, March 26.-Ihc Hat
field Mccoy teud on the West Virginia
and Kentucky border is a thing of the
past. All the troubles which have caused
the shedding of so much blood have been
settled. The hatchct buried, and hence
forth, so far as tie Hatfelds and McCoys
are concerned, Logan County, West Vir-
ginia, and Pike County, Kentucky, will be
peaceful communities. Captain Hatfield,
the leader Of the West Virginia faction,
who has figured in so many bloody en-
gagcments dnring the twenty years war
between the two families and their
branches, has been the leader in bringing
about the conferences which have result
ed in declaration Of peace, and he him
self announces the conclusion of the ne
gotiations in the following card, which he
has sent to the newspapers Of the south
ern section Of the State:
''To THE EDITOR: I ask space in your
valuable paper for these few lines. 4
general amnesty has been declared in the
famous Hatfield Mccoy feud, and wish
to say something of the old and the new
do not wish to keep the old feud alive,
and suppose every body, like myself, is
tired Of the names Hatfield and Mccoy,
and the words border warfare in time of
peace The war spirit in me has abated
and ! sincerely rejoice at the prospects of
peace.
81 have devoted my life to arms. We
have undergone a fearful loss of noble
lives and valuable property in the strug-
gle. We being like Adam, NOT the first
transgressors, now | propose to rest in q
spirit of peace. Yours respectfully,
