TIN PLATE FIGURES.
Nearly ao,OoO.Ooo Pounds Made in the
United States Last Year.

United States Last Year.
WASHINGTON, Aug 26.-The special
report of Ira Aver, special agent for the
treasury department, deputed to ex-
anime into the question of the produc-
ton of tin and terne plates, is made
public. The total production of tin and
terne plates proper for the year ended
June 80, 1892, by quarters, was as fol-
lows: Sept. 80, 1891, 1877 1929 pounds;
Dec. 81, 1891, 1,409,82 March 81, 1892,
3,209, 225; June 30, 1899, 8,200,751 max
ing total of 1885, 19 pounds.
The production of American sheet
iron or steel made into articles and ware
timed or terne- coated during the year,
as shown by the sworn statements of
manufacturers, was 4,S2S, 1928 pounds.
As these manufactures constitute tin
and terne plates within the meaning of
the law, it now seems probable that
when full returns are received the total
production for the year, inclusive of
such manufactures, will not fall much
short of 20,000,000 pounds.
A careful estimate shows that the
quantity of black plate produced in the
United States, and which entered into
the manufacture of tin and terne plates
during the year was, by quarters, as fol-
lows: Sept. 30, 1891, 783,547 pounds;
Dec 81, 1891, 1,200,661; March 81. 1899,
2, 1872, 0S2; June 80, 1892, 5,17e, 283;
total of 1926, $685. To which add black
plates, sold to stamping companies, made
into articles and wares, and timed or
terne-coated, as per returns to date,
1928, 1928, making the aggregate IA, 1884,
791 pounds. In other words, of the pro-
dnction of tin and terne plates proper
for the year, over SO per cent, and of
the total production over 10 per cent.
were made rom American black plates.
During the first quarter of the fiscal
year five firms were engaged in the man
ufacture of tin and terne plates, eleven
during the second, twenty during the
third and twenty-six during the fourth.
The probability is that at least eight new
ones will be added to the list of manu-
facturers at the end of the present
quarter

TT IS A QUESTION
whether the Roads viii Again Employ

ma va the Strikers.
Now that the switchmen's strike is
of, the question is worrying the men
who went out whether or not the rail
roads will take them back. 1t was given
out Wednesday night that on several
roads an understanding had been reached
whereby the old men would be en-
ployed whenever possible.
Arbitration Commissioner Donovan is
quoted as saying: E
al had interviews with the superin-
tendents of the principal roads involved,
and requested them in the event of the
strike being declared off to give employ
mept to as many men who were out on
strike as possible. The superintendents
Of the Lehigh and Erie assured me that
they would do so.
II am not certain about the Central,
but on the other roads upon which the
strike was sympathetic, the men will all
be taken back without question, / am
sure, except such as have violated the
law and forfeited the confidence Of their
employers by riotous conduct. With
these assurances | recommended to
Grand Master Sweeney that the strike
DO declared off.
sour interview followed the confer
ence which Sweeney had with Sargent
and Wilkinson. Sweeney was at first
ioath to give up, but, after laboring
with him for two hours, he at last con-
sentsd, if he could get the acquiesence
Of the local switchmen."
From other sources it was learned that
the Lackawanna people will probably
take back all their old men.

BUFFALO, Aug. 28.-After three hours

Sweeney officially declared the strike at
an end at midnight Wednesday night.
"This committee, consisting of the
duly appointed representatives of the

Agreed Upon.

The Main Lines Believed to Have Been
Agreed Upon.
LONDON, Aug. 26.-The Chronic 20
gives the following as the main lines of
the home rule bill, as believed to have
been agreed upon between Messrs.
Gladstone, Mccarthy and Dillon:
First-That the present land legisla-
ton shall not be disturbed for five years.
Second-That the police and justiciary
shall be in the hands of the Dublin par
lament.
Third-That the balance of the Irish
church fund shall be at the disposal Of
the Irish legislature.
Fourth--1'hat the English receiver
general of the bill of 1886 be dispensed
with.
- Fifth--That ON the other hand, there
shall be only one customs department,
and that the Irish parliament shall not
have power to levy separate duties.
Sixth-That the only veto shall be the
royal veto, to be exercised on the advice
of the English ministry.
- Seventh-That thirty Irish members
shall be retained at Westminster.
The Chronicle believes that Mr.. Glad
stone abandoned with great reluctance
the idea of receiver general, in defer
ence to the wishes of the McCarthyites.

ed. Sweeney himself was very reserved
and declined to speak at length on the
causes which had led to the declara-
ton of defeat.
"That is all / have to say" he re-
peated. "The strike is off and / suppose
the men will return to their old places"
Next Year.
The impression among the men al
most everywhere is that 1t will be better
to make the fight next year, when the
road will be hampered with the great
volume Of worlds fair business and can
not afford the delay consequent on q
tie-up.
Sweeney could not deny the force of
che argument that there was almost GER
tsinty of success should the railway en-
ployes mass their grievances next year
and make united demand for redress.
Sweeney Assaulted.
At II o'clock Thursday morning
Grand Master Sweeney, of the switch
mems union, was set upon by Arthur
Quinn, q striking Nickle Plate switch
man, and brutally assaulted. Mr..
Sweeney was standing at the corner Of
Swami and Main streets. Quinn ap-
preached and told Sweeney he was To-
sponsible for the loss Of his job. Be-
fore Sweeney had time to answer Quinn

kicked him several times. Several by

Sweeney Quinn ran away, followed by
an angry mob of strikers. Quinn threat
ened to kill them If they followed him,
and they stopped the chase
Mr Sweeney said it was the first time
IN the history Of the order that he had
been assaulted by a striker or any men
ber OF the ,switchmen's organization. LIE
had often heard threats against him but
had never been touched by a man who
was disappointed over the outcome of a
strike. The assault, he said, was most
cowardly and unprovoked. His injuries
are not Serious.

sent to the commanders of the various
camps early Thursday morning, giving
directions how to proceed about break

There seems to be no chance Of a
grand military parade here, such as was
proposed. Generals Porter and Dole
think the scheme is not feasible. They
do not want to ask the men to go
through.a hard days marching after
their trials in camp, and in the second
place the majority of the troops will
take trains at their respective camps
without coming into the city.
