 Major Bell denied in the presence of his accusers all the allegations that had been made Then Dr. Froelich got angry. He drew himself up to his full lleign, of six feet three inches and ap- preached the major, who is much smaller man, saying:
 New lcok here, major, do you mean to deny what we have said?" Without waiting for a reply he called the men about him and colled Tor vote.

SpAIN'S NPpEHL
To Spaniards To Save Her National
 Credit.

Madrid, Nov 23.-A semi-oflcial note issued today contains an appeal to Spaniards to furnish assistance to save the national credit, if they do not wish foreign capital to be withdrawn from Spain. Some people believe Cuba ought to assume her own debts no matter in whose hands is her sover- eighty, because she herself possesses the security therefor in the form Of customs.
 If, however, nobody will assume the debt, Spain must pay what Cuba can not, because Spain made herself re- spo2sible. Continuing, the note reads: With respect to the debt of the Phil- ippine islands Spain must await def- nite treaty Of peace in order to know what conditions America w4l impose upon her through the Paris peace com missioners."

Washington, Nov 23.-No surprise is expressed in government circles at the news Of General Blanco's resignation.

Andersen, Ind, Nov. 23.-Represen- ta.ives Of the proposed tin plate trust have been in Indiana this week inspect ing and taking a reappraisement CT the several tin plate mills in this state.
 IL has developed that Indiana is go- ing to be the principal factor in the or g2-iz2L ion Of the combine, for there are large tin plate plants ln Oper2t or in this city and Gt ElwCOd, Middle town, Atlanta, Gas City and Montpel- fer. h fact, the tin plate center Of the world today is Madison county and the largest plant in the world is located at Elwood. The owners of the National Tin Plate mills in this city are also owners Of the big plant recently put in operation at Nonessen, Pa. and when the tin pale trust is perfected it is quite probable an Indiana man will head the organization.
 It is stated Cn very reliable author ity that D. c. Reid, treasurer of the American Tin Plate company at FL wood, be chosen president. Chicago will be the headquarters Of the trust.
 It has been reported that the trust Is going to be allied with the American wire and steel trust in the pools on steel However, the tin plate combine prom cters say it is to be independent The combine will be capitalized in the neighborhCod Of 50,000 GOO The trust will lead off with forty-one tin plate plants in the com mbination.
