THE TIN PLATE INDUSTRY.
ShiveIy Of indiana Tells What He Doesn't
Know Of the Business in America.

WASHINGTON, June lJ.-The House went
into committee of the whole on the fortifica-
tons appropriation bill. Holman of Indi-
ana offered an amendment to eliminate the
contract feature SO far as it refers TO Wat
ervleit arsenal. The amount appropriated
under the amendment is $50 ,00d The
amendment was rejected. The committee
rose and the bill passed.
House went into a committee of the whole
on the revenue bills. The first bill called
up by Shively of Indiana was the bill to re-
duce the duty on tin plate. Sbively ex-
planned that the bill provided that on and
after October /, 1892, duty on tin plates
tern plates and taggcr's tin be one cent per
pound. and on and after October |, 1894
tinplates. tern plates and taggers tin be an
mitted free of duty. 1t further provided
that block, bar and pig tin be retained on
the free list and contained the usual rebat to
on drawback provisions in the inte rest of
our foreign trade.
The only purpose of the law Of 1880, he
said, was to enable those who produced tin
plate TO secure higher price and compel the
man who used it to give more of his labor
to pay for it. He quoted from the treasury
statement that black sheets imported and
dipped in this country constituted American
iinplate and said with four or five eIcep-
,ions the rolling mill owners in this country
were not been going into the business OF
manufacturing black sheets.
He referred to the Tin Plate Consumers
Association of the United States, which. h.
stated, was an organization composed of
Republican and Democratic protectionist-
and tariff reformers. In its report relative
10 the effect of the Law of 1890 upon tht. in
terests of American tin plate consumers
that organization said since the Mckinley
bill was passed we had to pay over $40.
10000 more for the tin plate that we use
in our factories and workshops the pres
ent duty will add every year over sl5 ,0o0. :
900 to the cost Of our raw material.
The report also declared that up to the
present moment not one sheet of coke tin.
which constitutes over half our reauire-
ments, had vet been put on the market by
American manufacturers, and the present
output of all kinds docs not constitute one
per cent. Of the entire consumption of tin
plate in America.
Shiveley said the Law of 1890 incsea.ed
the price of tin plate on the very day i,
went into effect. Since that time the price
of tin had gone down to all people eIcep,
I those living in the United States.

the SILVER BILL.
In The Senate-Palmer Offers Amendmen
Making Sweeping Changes in Bill.

washington, June lj.-In the Senate.
PETER presented petition from Riley
county, Kansas, in relation 10 the preva-
lence of lynch law. Referred 10 the judi
ciary committee. 4 conference was ordered
on the diplomatic and consular appropriation
bills, Hale, Allison and Blackburn being
appointed conferees on the part of the Sen
ate.
Bill to provide for the free coinage of
gold and silver was taken up, Palmer
moved to strike out all of the bill except the
first section which fixes the standard of gold
and silver dollars, makes those coins legal
tender, and permits the owners of silver or
gold bullion TO have il minted for their
benefit without charge.
Morgan addressed the Senate in support
of the bill. The silver plank in the Mime
apois Republican platform was, he said,
a step to the front in the way of the restora-
ton of silver as n money metal. 1t seemed
to cut loose forever from the single gold
standard of the senator from Ohio, and de
mand the use of both gold and silver H.
standard money.
The people had the right, however to
eXpectthat the Democracy would Al chicago

that silver should have the right of free
coinage. Referring to the proposition for
an international monetary conference Nor

to it, There had been already three such

was hopeless of any good result TO come
from new effort in that direction.
His chief purpose today was to show the
l .f al. 4
States from its financial conditions by a
report to an international conference and
agreement
The senator from Ohio, Morgan said,
proposed now a change of ratio. He sug-
gested Sending silver to the poor house
at the rate of - to /. This would give to
the gold men more than 81 800 900. The
present ratio was a creature of abuse. If
that abuse was removed nothing more would
be needed The canon of international law,
fixing silver ratio, will never be established.
The nited States could control the value
of silver in the Inited States. indepcnden,
of other nations and it was its duty to do
SO.
Stewart declared that there was no pro-
vision in the bill for the purchase of silver
bullion. II silver was not to be a money
metal ii had no business at all in the cur
rency of the country. The treasury de
partment today had in ejaculation about
81 100, 900, 900 silver and paper, with only
about Sll3 30oo,0o0 gold behind it. The
reputation of silver as money would bring
the government TO bankruptcy.
Cockrell held that the silver in the treas
ury did not not belong to the government
but to the holders of silver certificates.
Silver in the United States was today, he
said, more fully and absolutely in circula-
ton than gold. Without action on the bill
or on Palmer's amendment, the Senate ad-
