WASHINGTON, July 19.-President Har-

A COTTON PRESS TARIFF.

Into Combine.


Into Combine.
NEW ORLEANS, July 19.-The various
cotton presses have agreed upon tariff Of
charges, which most Of them have signed
already and the others will doubtless de-
termiRe to uphold. About the only differ
enoe is in the rate on cotton for speculation.
An increase Of cents per bale is charged
on account of the concessions recently
granted labor. The different presses
have already made contracts with leading
patrons covering the year beginning Sep
tember, end so the combination rate will
not be widespread in its effects. The most
important feature of the combination Is the
fact that It shows desire TO combine
among the presses, and it is generally as
serted that within a year nostof the presses
will be under one management. The seri-
Gus obstacle to previous deals has been the
opposing views as 20 the value of the prop
ertY concerned.

The noisy claims advanced before the
adoption of the Mckinley act, by the advo-
Gates of an increased tax on tin plate, as to the
capacity of the American manufacturers COM
pete with the English if more fully protected

became law, as 10 the amount of TIN plate
which is being made in this country. Test
ing the assertions of those Interested in the
production of tin plate. as to the present out
put of American tin-pate factories. by the
most authentic information obtainable. il is
clearly seen that these assertions are grossly
exaggerated.
In the Bulletin of the American Iron and
Steel Association. one of the most important
organs of the supporters of the high tariff,
there was published a short time ago state
ment from the Tin-Plate Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION, in which the tin plate works in ac-
tual operation in the United States or in the
course of construction or merely projected.
were enumerated and their present or pros
pective capacity was estimated. From this
statement 1t would appear that there are
already twenty-four factories engaged in turn
ing out tin plate, with an aggregate weekly
capacity Of $3.50 boxes while there are four
factories which will soon be completed and
put in operation.
The Tin-Plate Consumers Association,
which is antagonistic to the Association Of
Tin-Plate Manufacturers. the manufacturer
and consumer holding the same relation to
each other as the hawk and the hare or the
wolf and the sheep. has issued report which
would seem to show that the statement of the
Manufacturers Association is highly mac
curate. According to this report, the pro-
duction of tin plate in this country is at the
present time less than ono Der cent. Of the

consumption, and this produc'ion consists
principally of what is known III .he trade %
terne plates. that is. plates maze from iin-
ported sheets Of iron or steer.
In order 10 estimate with the utmost
thoroughness the extent OF the consumption
Of American tin plats in the United States,
the Consumers Association state III 'neir re-
port that they sent out to all the members OF
that organization a circular request that they
retnrn the amount of tin plate OF American
manufacture which they have used since the
Mckinley bill became law. Ot the one nun
dred and fifteen replies received, one hundred
declare that the writer's have used no Ameri-
can plate whatever. The amount used by
the other fifteen did not exceed 600 boxes
Striking q general average OF t1o consump-
ton of American tin plate on the OASIS oil
these one hundred and fifteen replies. very
fair test. as all the consumers are governed oy
precisely the same influences. and 1t Will be
seen that the general consumption must have
been comparatively small.
The statement OF the Consumers Associa-
ton is sustained by the last report of the
Directory of the American Iron and Steel IN
dustries. an annual publication of the highest
authority. This report has IN this connection
a special significance, as it was issued by the
manager of the Bulletin Of the American Iron
and Steel Association. in which the exaggera-
ted statement Of the 1in-plate Manufacturers
Association first appeared. According to 1t.
instead of there being twenty-four tin-plate
works in the United States in actual opera
ton. there are only eighteen. six or which
were not included in the enumeration OF the
Manufacturers Association. Nine factories
are in the course of erection. while one only
is projected. One Of the factories referred to
by the Manufacturers Association Is shown
10 have no existence whatever either as being
in operation or in the course of construction
or simply projected.
The Directory report estimates the weekly
production Of American tin plate at the
present time at 1880 boxes, which is less
than one-third of the amount of manufacture
claimed in the statement of the Manufactu-
rers Association. The report further reveals
that at least seventeen of the thirty works
now IN operation OF projected, are designed
as timing plants only, and intend to buy
their plates from the sheet-iron and steel
manufacturers. The parties who are making
their own plates are, with few exceptions. man
ufacturers of galvanized iron and steel who,
il will be recalled. were those most actively
concerned in having tie duty on tin and terne
plate advanced, their object being TO raise
the price Of terne plate used in roofing, as 1t
competed SO successfully with their own gal
yanized product. and also to extend the mar
ket for their sheet-iron and steel. AZ they
anticipated, the price Of terne plate has gone
up. the result of which is that the demand
for galvanized iron has increased They have
gained their point and the American people
at large are suffering tine consequences.
