BUILT UP BY THE TARIFF.
Testimony Regarding the DeyeIou-
ment of the Tin PIafe Industrx

The industrial commission Yesterday af
ternoon at 3:15 o'clock heard two witnesses
on the subject of tin plate They were
"m. l. Graham of Chicago, vice president
OF the American Tin Plate Company, and
director OF the Federal Steel Company anl
steel Hoop Company, and F. 9. Wheeler
treasurer of the American Tin Plate Com
pany.
Mr. Graham said that the capital stock
OF the American Tin Plate Company was
$oo.ooooOO, of which amount s1S,OO0,0OO was
preferred stock and the remainder common
lhere were about forty companies in the
combination. When he went into the con-
solidated company he was told that he
could have only certain amount of stock
ana he was given 800 worth of each kind
OF stock for each 800 of the cash valu-
atlon or his old plant. Since the consolida-
ton had been effected prices had advanced
from 81 to $4-65 per box, but this ad-
vance did not more than cover the advance
in the prices Of steel, pig tin and other in
gradients and the price ofOIabor. Indeed
the prof1ts We're not se5l large formerly
he said there was no restriction in con-
tracts with buyers requiring them to buy
from the American company only. No
preferences were given to one jobber over
another and no sales were made to retail
ers Asked concerning the effect of the
tsrif upon the tin plate industry he said

tariff would kill it absolutely

TO this question the witness replied:
There would have been nothing to Or
ganize."
be said that regularG dividends had been
PAID on the preferred Stock but that none
mad been paid on the 2comfhon stock. He
thought, however. that the company was
earning sufficient money to pay dividends
on this stock. The workmen were paid two

men were paid In Wales before coming to
this country.
F. $. Wheeler, treasurer of the American
I'm Plate Company, also made a brief
statement concerning the organization Of
that company. corroborating Mr.. Graham's s
statement. He said he knew of no con-
tracts for Determinations against other
manufacturers. He said that the common
STOCK or the company represented the price
OF the good will of the different companies
which constitute the combination

urday that Yale is now practicing In the

home yesterday after having suffered de-
feat in the game with Chicago. Very few
of the players showed evidences of injury
though all declared that the contest was
of the hardest they ever engaged in.
Coach Houghton is confident he can get the
Ithacans to give the Princeton Tigers a
run for their money on Saturday, October
II.
The Washington and Lee University stu
dents. realizing the great need of having
their foot ball eleven trained, have secured
the services of Thomas G. Trenchard of
Maryland, better known as Doggy"
Trenchard, the former great foot ball man
of Princeton and of late years trainer of
winning elevens. Trenchard arrived at
Lexington yesterday from Baltimore, and
assumed charge of the varsity eleven in
the afternoon. There is excellent material
for fine eleven at the varsity, but as
shown by their games last week with the
cadets, they sadly lacked training.

On the War Path.

The Gardnerville Record says as a
sequel of the killing Of Willie Dang
berg by an Indian, and the fruitless
chase after the murderer, the threaten
ing attitude of the Indians, as we'll as
their failure to bring in Joe Pete, is
causing widespread alarm.
Last Friday night a strange Indian
attempted to enter a barn on Chris
Dangberg's ranch and was driven off.
Saturday night a new hand employed
on the ranch rushed to the family res
idence and awoke Mr.. Dangberg. He
asked for a gun. as he said he had
seen two men out in the enclosure act
ing suspiciously. He was given a
weapon and got back just in time @
see two Indians in the moonlight skulk-
ing along the side Of a tier of cord
wood. He fired on them and seven
shots were fired after their retreating
forms.
The family as well as the n~eighbors
are greatly alarmed at these occur
ences. From here and there comes
word Of threatening talk from the In
dams, who claim they will kill Jim
Jack, the faithful Indian who tried to
end the career Of the murderous Joe
Pete. Every Indian in town or out
now carries a shotgun or rifle. and
and when asked why they do 1t, invari-
ably reply: "Injun go hunt um deer"

A NUISANCE.

Horse-jockeying continues in
Mt. Sterling to the discredit Of the
city fathers. This business, we
think a most serious nuisance.
First, by allowing it life and prop
erty are endangered; second, the
greater part Of the horses used by
the jockeys are diseased; third, a
stranger is impressed by what he
sees, and that both the horses
and traders are specimens OF
Montgomery yeomanry. We con-
tinue to hope the Council
through the City Attorney, may
be able to frame a law that would
eject these unsightly, dangerous
objects, and which would be in
strict accordance with our Cons
titution.

agement. He will go into the

votes:

Second instructions 81.

DEMOCRATIC MASS MEET
ING.

Court house on last Saturday,
when the Chicago platform was
endorsed and when Col. A. w.
Hamilton was likewise endorsed
as Democrat and man by APP
pointing delegates to attend the
Railroad District Convention at
Winchester on April 20, instruct
ed to use their influence to secure
the Democratic nomination for
Railroad Commissioner, was
after our own heart in in
terest and harmony. The
body was in session about ten
minutes, just long enough to call
the meeting to order, state its
object, read and pass resolutions
and adjourn.
With such harmony Montgom-
cry Democracy would become so
cemented that no Republican need
apply. Col. Hamilton will be
the nominee Of his party and
though the district is Republican,
there is a chance Of success from
the fact that there are many Re
publicans who prefer to vote for
bimetallist Democrat to any gold
bug Republican.
