across a short stretch of yard to the
large and impressive brick structure
close by. The entrance is by the door

double doors, into a hallway, whence
there is direct entrance to the hall or
the house of representatives at the left,
with committee rooms to the right, and

Both legislative chambers are OF the

BLACK EYE FOR TAYLOR

FRANKFORT, Ky, Nov. LIT is con-
ceded here that the Kentucky election will
remain in tangle until the meeting of the
which has not been set. but it will be dur
ing the last week of this month. The coun-
ty election commissioners in Knox county
who certified to the vote in that county Will
file a supplemental statement with the
state board, stating that fraud and in
timidation were practiced by the Republic
ans in every precinct, and that the county
commissioners were overawed and forced
by a mob of drunken men to certify the
vote, and will close by recommending that
the entire vote be thrown out. General
Taylor received 1854 majority in Knox
county.
There is renewed confidence around the
Goebel headquarters tonight, probably as
a result of the decision of the Court of APP
peals to-day. dealing an unexpected blow to
the Republicans by ruling which prac-
tcaly decides in advance adversely the
mandamus suits filed by Taylors attorneys
i'm several counties to compel the county
election commissioners to certify the vote.
1t is probable now that the jefferson
board, which includes Louisville, will pro-
coed to throw out several precincts in that
pecially where the state militia was present
or near the polls election day. 1t is
claimed here tonight that Tayior's 1900
plurality in the city of Louisville may be
almost wiped out.

PLENTY OF COMPETITION
PLATED SILVERWARE TRUST DOES
NOT CONTROL ALL FACTORIES.
Testimony of Connecticut Manufac-
missiOn-Views of n. ID. Rogers.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-The industrial
commission to-day gave its attention to the
plated silverware business, hearing first Mr..
Samuel Dodd president of the Internationa
Silver Company, and w. H. Watrous, a d.
rector of that company, and afterwards Mr..
n. b. Rogers, an independent manufac-
turer. Mr.. Dodd said the International Sill
yer Company had been organized about
year ago, and that with two exceptions ii
was composed of Connecticut manufacture
ers. There are in the combine fifteen fac
tories and as many stores, but it was the
expectation that about ten of the stores
would be closed There had been an in
crease of labor force employed. notwith-
standing some of the factories had been
closed, and there also had been a slight in
crease in wages since the commission was
effected. He estimated that the company
manufactured 30 or 60 per cent. of the
tire plated silver output of the country but
said there was an abundance of competition
left. Indeed, there were about forty sepa-
rate establishments still in existence. He
said the International company was capital
lied for $50 600 600. but that only about SIS
600, 600 worth of the stock had been issued.
His original company, the Wilcox Silver
ware Company, had disposed of its stock of
a par value of $25 to the combine for SIS
cash and $50 in preferred and s25 in common
stock. He said the pool i'm silver company
! stock recently formed in New York had no
connection with the company. He stated
that the plants I'm the combine were worth
about half the amount of capitalization and
the patents the other half.
MIR. W. III. WatrouS, of Hartford, direc-
tor of the international company, corrObo-
rated the statements of Mr.. Dodd.
Mr.. n. b. Rogers, of G. Rogers & Co.,
silver plate manufacturers, of Danbury,
said that his company at first had contem
plated entering the International combna-
ton, but afterward decided not to do so.
One objection he made to the method of
Sanizing was that the negotiations were all
conducted i'm the name Of a clerk who was
a dummy and irresponsible. The promoters
received per cent. of the common stock
and the common stock was offered to those
entering the pool as bonus The combina-
ton had reduced prices Immediately after
organizing and the competition since then
had been very sharp. but Mr.. Rogers was
of opinion that the low prices had been at
the expense of quality. He said he pre-
ferred being out of the combination to being
in it, and that he did not fear the competi-
tion of the combine so long as il was
legitimate. He had heard from stockhold-
er of the International company that the
company had passed its first dividend. and
at the time the dividend should have been
declared had increased the salaries of its
directors from So 00c to $4,000, that of it's
president from $1,000 to $4,000 and that of
the treasurer to SO O0b.
