AN lntelllgencer reporter interviewed
President CIV Franzhelm, OF the Wheel
ing Pottery Company yesterday. anent
the pottery schedule OF the senate tariff
bill. Mr, Franzheim expressed himself
as satisfied with the compound system
OF rating, adopted by the senate commit
tee, but considered the rating much too
low He considered the compound sys-
tem-specihc and ad valorem-as being
the most efficient principle OF assessing
duties. the ad valorem system heretofore
in force being open to fraud on the part
OF foreign shippers, who often under
valued their goods. But, as stated. the
rates are much too low.and in Mr.. Franz
helms opinion. they are not much of an
Improvement over those In the Wilson
Brlce bill.
The Dingley bill. as passed by the
house. provided for the nd valorem sys-
TEN oaly, similar to the Wilson Brlce
bill. but the Dingley duties were much
higher When the bill reached the SEN
ate committee. the latter adopted the
compound system. but, in taking up that
principle. failed to make the duties on
pottery high enough
A schedule was submitted by comIt-
tee Of the pottery manufacturers. based
on entries OF over 500 actual invoices at
the port OF New York since January
this year. From these invoices based on
their weights and values a schedule was
prepared, providing for both specific and
ad valorem duties. and In eject. no high
er than the ad val0rem duties OF the Din
gley bill as adopted by the house. The
potters' schedule, however, is far from
that adopted by the senate committee.
To the general reader II would appear
that on some styles OF ware there IL con
siderable Increase over the Wilson Brice
tariff, but things arc not what they
seem" There IS an Increase, 1t Is true.
more In some lines than others, chiefly in
the finer grades. which are so light
enough that the specific duty-that is
duty on weight-will not be such great
protection after all The idea OF the
American potters Is TO secure such pro-
tective tariff az will enable them 10
meet the difference In the cost OF labor
between that OF America and the lower
paid labor OF England France. Germany,
Austria and Japan-ior the latter coun-
try Is looming up "a a shipper OF pot
terry. Hence though the slight increase
OF tarlr is gladly received. higher tariff
would be more desirable.
In reply to question OF what effect on
trade would follow the passage " the
new bill. Mr.. Franzheim stated that he
was not prepared to answer He
thought the adoption ofthe bill would
have tendency to give the pottcrics
steadler employment, but did not think
the manufacturer or workmen would re-
ceve greater financial returns. But "
course, he said, 1t was impossible 10 for
see the future Just at present.

President c. A. Robinson. Of the La
Belle iron works. who is a busy man
these days, was seen at the city build
ing. where he was interesting himself
in furtherinG his companys endeavor
to secure the use OF part OF Thirtieth
street. wherein to erect a tin plate mill
that will give employment to 200 men
with n monthly payroll OF about $4,000
He hopes and believes that the commit
tee and council will be influenced in
their decision on the company's appll-
cation, by the advantages and opera
tons OF such an extensive plant as that
In contemplation.
How about the new tariff measure"
inquired the newsman,
well. the tin.plhte schedule in the
one that interests this community more
than any other In the bill." was the
manufacturer reply The senate
measure gives a slightly increased pro-
lection The Wilson bill schedule pro-
vIded FOR duty L. cents per pound
Just a cent less than the Mckinley bill
duty. The Dingley bill duty was l.5
cents. and the senate bill gives IL cents.
As the tariI is now. we are able 10 sup
ply the tin plate In the eastern markets
but the Pacific slope has bee supplied
by the Welsh manufacturers. They
have a freight rate that is equal to five
cents from New York to Portland
while the rate from Wheeling TO the
coast is sIXty-hve cents.
''I'udcr the new duty the American
manufacturers viii be able to go into
the markets OF the far west"
Although Mr.. Robinson IL disappoint-
ed that the tin plate duty had not been
placed at higher figure he was dispos-
ed to take matters philosophically and
Is OF the opinion that the superiority Of
the American plate and the improved
methods OF manufacture that are now
belng introduced In this crstwhile In
fant industry. win eventually drive the
foreign plate from this market When
