Nearly Twenty Million Pounds Manufactured
in the United States IN the Past Year.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-The special re-
port of Ira Aver, special agent for the
Treasury Department, deputed to examine
into the question of the production of tin
and terne plates, is made public. The total
production of tin and torn plates proper for
the year ended June 90, 1892, by quarters.
was as follows: Sept. 80. 1891. S27. 922 pounds;
Dec. 81. 1884, 1,4O9, S2l; March 81. 1892, $780,
225: June 30, 1892. s,2OO,751. making total
of Is, 646, 719 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
received to-day. was 4S2S, 22S pounds. AS
these manufactures constitute tin and
terne plates within the meaning of the law,
it now seems probable that when full re-
turns are recei ed the total production for
the year, inclusive of such manufactures.
will not fall much short of 10000. 600 pounds.
A careful estimate shove that the guam;
tity of black plate produced In the United
States. and which entered into the manu-
facture of tin and terne plates during the
year was, by quarters. as follows: Sept 80.
1891. rs. 547 pounds: Dec. 81, 1891, 1000. Col;

made into articles and wares, and timed
or terne-coated, as per returns to date.
ASS. 228, making tho aggregate 14.124. 7S1
pounds. In other words, of the production
of tin and terne- plates proper for the year,
over 6S per cent, and of the total prOduc-
tion over 20 per cent. were made from
American black plates. During the first
quarter of the fiscal year five firms were
engaged in the manufacture 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 manufacturers at tho end of tho
present quarter.

gallantly jumping on her neck. Later in

comparison. Ii was about that time that

clamation.

PLACE OF INFECTION FOUND.
Precautions to Make It Inaccessible-NoTe Texas
Fever at the Stockyards.

The State Sanitary Commission will meet
this morning to consider tho presence of
Texas fever in West Indianapolis. Prosi-
dent Adams Earle. of Terra Haute wired
DR.. Pritchard last night that he would be
present. Two more of the affected cattle
died yesterday and several are yet sick.
DR.. Parsons. of the Bureau of Animal In
dustry. Department. of Agriculture, who
happens to be hero on other business. used
his prerogstive as a government officer yes
terday to make an inspection Of his own.
In speaking of his investigation last night
to Journal reporter he said:
II think have found whore the trouble
originated. 1t was in the vicinity of the
Vandalia bridge. where the cleanings and
the otfal in the cars are thrown. 1t is
of the very steep grade of tho railroad
bank. but it is possible that cows could
climb the hill and walk far enough on the
embankment to reach the place. In fact. 1
doubt the tracks of the cattle which died.
From what hear of the symptoms OF the
disease. am inclined TO believe the trou-
BILE was really Texas fever. This

lutely safe from intrusion the company i'm
mediately erected Q wire fence about it.
The ground was also, yesterday. tr,ned
over. so as to destroy any germs still re-
naming"
How did you find the government regu-
lations as to quarantine observed in this
cityp was asked.
1.-The quarantine regulstlons, found in
my Investigations to-day, are com pletely
carried out at the stock-yards, 1t the Indi-
annapolis Abattoir Company's place and
at Gardeners. Tho suggestions of DR..
Armstrong rour local agent of the
upon fully. became convince that the
Texas fever cases IN West Indianapolis
could not be traced to any Of these points.
There is absolutely no chance of tho dis
ease spreading from these placos under
their arrangements for auarantining cat
tie. am sure that If the State board had
considered the situation . little longer
no general quarantine would have been
ordered. AS it was to-day 1 found the
abattoir has two carloads of Southern cat
tie under quarantine at the stock y ards.
Now lt would have been wiser rather
to order these cattle slaughtered
at once than to hold them.
The germ that causes the dis
ease in Northern cattle does not cause
the latter are killed. the less danger of in
lection. The board had forbidden the cat
tie slaughtered. whereas. they would be
just as safe in the quarantine at the abst-
tor, and perhaps in q better place. The
longer the infections cattle are he ID. the
nearer the danger point, because the germ
is allowed time to develop. From the
have any hesitation in buying on the
market there"
DR.. Pritchard said last night that in all
ninety-nine cattle have been placed in
quarantine. 1t probable the restric-
tioes will be lifted to-day.

"PlCTURE TO THE WALL"

Sisters Express Their Opinion of the "Su-
premes"-Singing "DOwn Went Mctiinty."
Last night Sisterhood Branch 675 of the
Iron Hall order held an indignation meet
ing at the lodge-room. There were not
many present, but they did great deal Of
talking most of which concerned Somerby
personally. There were Mrs. Mary A.
Henney, chairwoman of the meeting, and
Mrs. DR.. Motfutt Mrs. George Weaver,
Mrs. Laura Stewart. Mrs. A. L. Howe, Mrs
NJ. ID. Wright. Mrs. Thomas and Miss Klein.
Tbemeeting was crouched In an executive
session. and only part of it's sensational
proceedings could be learned. The sisters
were all after Mr.. Somerby, and seemed
more disconnected from the fact that he
had gotten away from the city unindicted
than Mt their apparent losses.
'Oh If We just bad him for few min

jected another. aud 60 the two. distin-
guished Iron Hall gentlemen were juggled

pasted the old stock sign. don't spit on

there were far better places that might lie
used instead of the floor.
Mrs. Wright wanted to know why every
one of tho supreme officers of the order
were not bad as Mr.. Somerby Then
the sisters thawed out into a moro cheerful
spirit, gathered around the piano and sang
down Went McGinty" in full chorris.
Mrs. Moffutt accomp panied the song beatiti-
fully. and, ct the end of each verse, up
holstered the general effect with exquisite
variations. all of which would draw their
steps together and start in on the next
stanza with renewed vitality.
Mrs. Henney In confidence stated that
the order was not by any means bank
rupted, as they had lots of money in the
banks over the country; that the el.terhood
would hold their regular meeting next
