The weekly tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1891-1894, 1892-05-28

The Iron Age announces that ''nego-
tiations are in progress looking to the
merging into one body of the Associa-
ton of Iron and Steel Sheet Manufac-
turers, the National Association of Gal
vanized Sheet Manufacturers and the
Timed Plate Manufacturers a~ssocia-
ton of the United States. This asso-
citation when organized will be a pow
erful one, and is expected to be of on
siderable benefit to the trade. A general
meeting Of the above three organiza-
tons will be held in Pittsburg on
Wednesday, June 10 next, at which it
is expected the consolidation will take
place"
This is just what the manufacturers
of iron and steel sheets, who were chiefly
instrumental in getting the increase in
the duty on tin plate, have been aiming
at all the time. The manufacturers of
galvanized iron have such "a complete
control of that industry that when the
prices of terne plate were advanced in
consequence of the higher duty they
were able to advance the prices of their
galvanized iron in spite of the fact that
the price of the crude iron had fallen.
The makers of galvanized iron favored
the advance in the duty on terne plate
for just this purpose. On the other
hand, the sheet iron makers favored the
duty in order to make the price of tin
plate SO high that the me and other
large n5ume would be forced to
build Timing stacks for making tin
plates. and thus become their customers
for iron and steel sheets.
The makers Of sheet iron and steel
never intended to engage in the tin
plate business, as The Iron Age has sew
eral times minated. They know well
that as long as the high duties on sheet
iron can BIO maintained, those who build
timing stacks will have to buy the
sheet iron used of them. Hence it is
that they are organizing Il trust with
the ~galvanizers in order the maintain
the high prices which they are now
charging for sheet iron.
The only way in which the tin plate
industry can he established in this conn
try on Il substantial basis is by putting
iron and steel sheets, now controlled by
a trust, upon the free list. Until this is
done consumers will be forced to con-
tinue the payment of owe $17 900, 900 in
duties on imported tin plate into the
treasury of the United States,

seven rainbow hueS. 1t was IA dav of
perfect weather and II marriage which
called only for congratulations. These
were received on the velvet tnrfed lawn
under a canopy Of green, above which
white doves hovered.
Singular as it may seem, it is true
that the SUI in gathering the mists from
off the lake made visible IL bright rain
bow, which seemed indeed reflected in
the gay booth holding the bridal party;
the v~ariegated toilets Of the maids stand
ing III semicircle limited Of the curving
bow seen by old Noah after his journey
in the great ark had safely terminated.
As all the rays of the spectrum are
known to be present and reflected in
pure white, it seemed as though IA line of
light passing through the snowy lovli-
ness of the bride had let fall upon each
maiden a prismatic color.
Directly following the marriage Mr..
Taylor took his wife abroad, where uu-
Ill recently they have loitered, spending
the major part Of their stay in London.
They have recently opened their hand
some Prairie avenue house. There they
dispense an almost prodigal hospitality.
Both are genuinely admired, and both
are devotedly happy in IA mutual affec-
ton.
One solid square on Michigan avenue
will hold two palatial mansions built
for the sons Of Mr.. Philip d. Armour,
One already stands completed and will be
occupied the approaching autumn. The
two young wives who will preside over
these superb houses are singularly do
mestic for women so attractive and
youthful.
Mrs. p. d. Armour, Jr., the earlier
welded, is of medium height and fair
brown in hair and eyes. She possesses
that excellent thing in woman, 'a voice
ever soft, gentle and low" using it in
quick, easy and charming conversational
encounters. French falls unsteady and
fiuently from her tongue. OF noble char
acter and sunny disposition, she owns
an intellect that enkindles and enriches
~ we'll " a heart which blesses and
cheers all who fall under its sweet in
fiuence.

made homes in other cities. It is but
just that she, in the person of her sons,
occasionally assumes the %cOnquering
role and secures beauty and worth to
| brighten and adorn her own hearth
| stones. The home bringing of Mrs.
| Ogden Armour is n case in point. She
is the only child of Mr.. NJ. j. Sheldon,
of Sutfield, Conn, but who during win
ter months finds his home at the Muir
ray Hill, New York. When but "A babe
Mrs Armour lost her mother, and she
became at once the idol, care and COM
rade of her father and his constant COM
panion accompanying him on long and
interesting travels in America and for
eign lands.
Mrs. Armour was but recently freed
from school when she welded Chicago's
young millionaire. In person she is tall,
with perfectly developed figure and IL
coloring whose hues II excep-
tionally fine health. Her eyes are dark,
penetrating and luminous. That she
should pass from II joyous maidcnhood
to happy wifellood seems ernincntly fit
ting to those who know her.
She is practiced in athletic sports and
is "a fearless cquestrienic. In music She
commands high place; especially is she
cultivated rs II vocalist. Her husband
is II graduate of Yale.
One autnmnal afternoon in 1890 II
handsome brongham carrying II single
lady passed down Chicago streets fol-
lowed by stylish equipages. The up
holstery of the bruugham was wholly
concealed beneath II curtain of orange
blossoms, and its door frames, coach
man, harness, whip and horses were
decorated with the same n@uptial token.
Inside sat Miss Rosaiie Buckingham
in ivory satin bridal robe, upon which

attaches to the pretty girls who have of
late become the wives of young Chicago
millionaires.
Mrs. Taylor. wife Of Hobart &. Tay-
lor, ''divinely tall and most divinely
fair" Is twenty-five years of age. She
has a sensitive complexion, light brown
hair and warm, kindling, gray eyes.
Her brow is broad and open. her nose
slightly %rctrousse, with firm lower face,
made tender and sweetencd by II most
pleasing mouth. When seen in profile
Mrs. Taylor's head shows straight, strong,
almost boxlike lines. She is quick,
sudden, impulsive in movement rather
than graceful, and her attitudes indi-
cate earnestness, originality and purpose
rather than repose. In manne she is
natural, cordial, full of "A beautiful gra-
ciousness and a discerning atfability.
Mrs. Taylor is the Youngest daughter

Who Paid This Duty:

A Chicago man arriving in New York
from Europe was found to have u silk
dress pattern concealed under the lining
of his o%vercoat. On being taken to task
by a customs officer he broke down and
tearfully asked permission to pay the
duty. The silk had cost $50 on the
other side and he was assessed $50 us
duty, which he gladly paid. Probably
it will be useless for Benjamin Harrison
and William Mckinley to tell this in
dividual that the foreigner pays the tax.
