the "a. COO tons produced. in 1891 Cornwall pro-
duced 1900 tons, Australia 5000 tons, Saxony
1850 tons and the South Sea islands the re-
mainder. We can produce plates as cheaply as
Wales can. We get tin in the South Sea islands
at an equal advantage with England. The
chief question is the work manship an d wages.
Metal workmen in Wales are paid the highest
wages received in Europe for similar work, yet
we pay double the wages paid there and there
will be difficulty in getting plenty OF men.
The smartest manufacturers in Wales are re-
moving their plants to America, which is good
move for both countries relieving the overrro-
duction here and giving us the experienced men
and business we need
Welsh newspapers, commenting on Con-
gers visit, say the tin plate industry has
failed to take root in the United States in
spite of the governments nursing, and
that the people there are beginning to see
that, while the tariff has severely hurt
Wales, it hurts the tin consumers in the
United States much more.
Andrew Carnegie and wife passed
through this city today for the continent,
where Carnegie goes to seek work on n
new book treating of the industrial prob

he said he had worked on the book all
spring and summer until the deplorable
events at Homestead. They had such q
depressing effect that he was compelled to
lay the book aside and resort to the lochs
and moors. fishing from morning tall
night. Referring to the business pros
poets of England, Carnegie said the out
look was dark. In conclusion he said:
Look where you will, there's but one
truly prosperous country in the world,
and that is the United States, God bless
her, she deserves it."

nese advices state that Polhill Turner and
wife, of the Cambridge band of China
inland missionaries. and who were en-
gagged in missionary work among Thi-
betans on the border. were assaulted by a
mob at Sung Pan, on August 10. and mar
rowly escaped with their lives. Mrs. Tur-
ner is ill and had to be sent to Sung Pan
for treatment. The natives accused the
strangers of being necromaucers and of
preventing rainfall. The mob numbered
fully q thousand when it made the attack
on the house, and Turner and his wife
were dragged out, beaten over the head
with pickets and with their clothes half
torn from their bodies were marched bare
headed through the streets under a blaz-
ing sun. The mob threatened to drown
them, but were prevented by military
officials, who suggested that the mission
aries be tried before 4 native court. This
was done and the court ordered Mr. and
Mrs. Turner to be beaten, but two native
Christian servants volunteered and were
beaten in their stead. The Turner's gath
cred their children about them and fled to
Szechuen. Subsequently rain fell at Sung
Pan to such an extent that the village was
nearly submerged by the mud washed
from the hills.
