THE TIN PLATE INDUSTRY.
An Attempt to Make a Showing of Ii
Growth in America.

An Attempt to Make a Showing of II s
Growth in America.
WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Ira I. Aver,
special agent of the treasury, has SUBJ
mitted to Secretary Foster an exhaust
i've report on the tin plate business of the
country, the manufacture of tin plate
and the growth OF the industry. The
report makes the following sho wing:
Quarter ending September so, 1S9l.-
Five man ufacturers reported tin plates,
153, l52 pounds; Terne plates, GA 200
pounds total S27 600 pounds.
Quarter ending December 81. 1891
Eleven manufacturers reported tin
plates, 2l6,000 pounds; Terne plates.
1,l94.00O pounds; total, 1,4l0,00o
pounds.
Quarter ending March 81, 1892. Nine
teen manufacturers reported tin plates,
100000 pounds; Terne plates, l,904,0 900
pounds; total, 1904 600.
These figures do not include the pro-
duction of sheet iron or sheet steel used
in the manufacture of articles timed or
terne plated, estimated at 1900, 900
pounds.
Aver figures that the American manu-
facturers, in order to maintain the duty
tin plates after October l, 1897, must
produce in one of the six years ending
at that date, 50,000,000 pounds of tin
and teine plates, weighing lighter than
.63 pounds to the square toot.
Aver says the indications are that un-
der the existing conditions, the pro-
duction of the country before the close
of the second fiscal year will be in ex-
cess OF the annual rate of 200,o0O,0 GOO
pounds.

BLAND IS DOWN IN THE MOUTH
No Hope For Silver Legisla-
tiOn This Session.
The Democrats May Lose Some Sill
yer States on This Account.
New England Mugwumps to Blame For
the Failure of Free Coinage-Har-
rison's Silver Conference
Is Big HumbuE.

Associated Press Dispatches
New York, April 2S.-A Herald Wash
ington special says:
"For the sake of few New England
Mugwumps we are likely to lose num-
ber of Democratic silver states," de-
clared Congressman Bland. Bland has
apparently abandoned all hope of silver
legislation at the present session of con-
gress. He does not admit this in so
many words, but does not talk hopefully
of getting his bill up again in the house,
and he knows there Is little chance that
the senate will take the initiative in
passing the bill.
Bland was asked what states the
Democrats were likely to lose this fall
because of their failure to pass silver
bill. He named North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi
and Arkansas.
"What do you think of the PROPOSE
ton for monetary conference?"
Bland received the suggestion with a
scornful sniff, and said: THAT does
not fool anybody. There will be no
more monetary conferences. The presi-
dent does not want a monetary confer
ence; England does not want a none
tary conference, nor New England, nor
do the bankers of Wall street. They are
all in cahoots. This is merely politi-
cal kick on the part of the president.
He simply wants to tide over the situa.
tion until after the next election. He
has no expectation that there will be a
monetary conference; nor haveI."
Bland said the committee on rules
might bring up an order calling up the
silver bill again and keeping it before
the house until disposed of, but when
asked if he thought they would do it,
he replied that he could not tell what
they would do.
These views OF Bland seem to be
shared by Senator Pugh of Alabama, an
ardent silver man and a strong opponent
to the nomination of Cleveland. He
agrees with Bland in thinking that a
number of the southern states are doubt
full with an antifree coinage candidate.
He goes further and insists that North
Carolina and South Carolina will be
carried by the Republicans at the
autumn election if the Democrats re-
nominate Cleveland or any candidate
with decided anti-silver views.
"Humbug!" was the ejaculation ol
Senator Stewart of Nevada when asked
what he thought OF the presidents plan
for an international silver conference.
The president talks about the enlarged
use of silver" said the senator. "There
can be no enlarged use of silver except
to use it for money. He is talking non
sense. Intend to make speech about
it at the first opportunity"

Spirit Rappings in Good Morse.

At a spiritual seance in residence in
the northern part of Millersburg one
night, shortly after the circle was formed
under the glare of the gaslight, peculiar
rappings were heard on the table as if
some telegraph operator were sending a
message. The telegraph operator at the
railroad Office was sent for, and listen
ing to the raps, declared they were made
by an expert operator who seemed to
know several persons present.
Several messages were sent and re-
ceived, the telegraphic shade declaring
he was not happy because he had not
lived right on earth. The spirit then
said he wanted to talk to Miss A,
whereupon that young lady in the circle
promptly tainted and broke the COM
bination, as nothing else was heard from
the dissatisfied spirit. It is said the
young lady in question had dear
friend, who was an expert operator, who
died some years aso.-Correspondent

the Library association have concluded
to continue one more day and night. 1t
has proved an eminent success and will
result in adding large number of

Some days ago, in our reference to
the Republican primary election here,
it WAS stated that some of the caucus
nominees of the second would have been
defeated had not voters from the first
ward rallied to their support, and voted
in the second ward instead of the first,
where they belong. This statement was
made to us by more than one party whom
we supposed knew of the facts. This is
denied, however, by several of the
friends OF the successful candidates, who
say that the opposition was at the polls
all day, and could have detected and
prevented any attempt of the kind by
voters of the first ward.

WASHINGTON, April %. - Secretary
Blaine appeared today before the senate
committee on commerce and made a
strong argument opposing the pending
joint resolution authorizing the landing
of the French cable on the shores of Vir-

being that the French Cable company,
co operating with the Brazilian govern

cable privileges between the Unite ID
States and Brazil, and if the resolution
passed, the negotiations looking to the
procurement of a concession to an Amer
