MARKS OF RESPECT.
Groups of People All Along the Line Pay
Their Last Tributes of Respect.

Groups of People All Along the Line PAP
Their Last Tributes of Respect.
I HARRISBURG, Pa, Oct. 2S.-The run Of
che train bearing Mrs. Harrison's re-
mains between Baltimore and York, Pa,
was marked by numerous evidences OF
respect on the part OF the people residing
along the route. At York there was a
crowd at the station, but the train did
not stop.
The funeral train arrived here at $50
O'Clock in the afternoon and stopped five
minutes TO change engines. TIE station
was crowded with people desirous OF
paying their last tribute OF respect to
Mrs. Harrison, but they were not allowed
to enter the train yard. Nearly all stood
with heads uncovered.
1t was noticed that the compartment
car Ideal attached to the funeral train
had also formed part of the train in which
the President made his tour through tho
South and West in the spring OF 1891.
Nearly all the persons who accompanied
him on that trip were with him yester-
day. Mrs. Harrison contributed probe-
bly, more than any other one person to
the pleasure and gladness of the trans
continental trip and the changed condi-
tious inspired the President and his as
sociates with unspeakable depression.
While the train was standing here tho
hymn IL Would Not Live Always" was
rendered by the chimes OF the First
Lutheran Church. AS the train passed
out OF the city the operatives OF the roll
ing mills gathered at their windows, and
large numbers of school children were
stationed along the road. The men and
boys removed their hats and the girls
waved their handkerchieis in a reverend
manner.

lowed by Attorney General Miller and
Mrs. Miller. President Harrison and
Mrs. Mckee next alighted.

many calculations OF surprise from his
old neighbors who had not seen him in

after tie Fres de al and were soon followed
by the other members OF the funeral
party.

ADVANCE IN TIN MANUFACTURE
Two Years Hepce We VIII be Making All
That We Can Consume, Says Ira Aver,
Special Agent of the Treasury Depart
ment.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 28 Ira Aver, special
agent of the Treasury Department, las
made report to Secretary Foster, on the
production of tin and terne plates in the
United States for the quarter ending
Sept. 80. 1892.
1t shows that during the quarter, thir-
two firms produced lo,952. 725 pounds OF
tin and terne plates proper. against $780,
o22 pounds produced by five firms during
the same quarter of the last fiscal year
the production Of the entire year having
been 1896 7l9 pounds
The report adds: "Of the total produc-
ton for the Suarter 5,920,0S2 pounds. or
more than "a per cent, were made from
American black plates; 3,6ll, pounds,
or about one-third of the whole, were
bright tin plates, of which 1897 036
pounds, or more than 92 per cent were of
the lighter class OF plates mentioned in
the McKialey law; ,34l ,35S pounds we're
terne plates, of which more than % per
cent belonged TO the lighter class.
SHOULD the same rate of increase con-
tinue it would give production during
the present fiscal year of 175O00,000
pounds, ana an annual rate of production
at the close of the year OF more than
400, 900, 900 pounds, instead OF 200, 000, 00t
pounds, as heretofore estimated"
Mr.. Aver says: 1T would seem entire
ly within the range of probability that
during the fiscal year ending June 80
1925, which will he the third year that the
law will have been in force, the United
States will produce an amo unit Of tin and
terne plates equal to its own consump-
tion. nearly all OF which will be made
from American back plates and tin
plates. 1t seems to be universally con
ceded that they are equal If not superior
to foreign plates"
Comparative tables Of the wages paid
all kinds of tin workers in the United
States and England are given, from which
it appears that the average of wages paid
in rolling mill work in this country ID
from two to three times as great as in
England. Assuming. two years hence,
that the yearly product would be 49,, 900.
000 it is stated that at least 80 per cent ol
this amount would represent wages paid.
