CARGO OF SCRAP TIN
TO GO TO HOLLAND

Tacoma, June 13.-When the Ger
man steamer Anubis of the Kosmos
line leaves Puget sound for Hamburg,
via the west coast, she will carry a
most unusual shipment. This consists
of 200 tons of scrap tin consigned to a
smelling plant at Rotterdam, Holland
This scrap tin is refuse from the
cans in which condensed milk is
packed in the plant at Auburn. Large
quantities of scrap accumulate and
heretofore it has been customary to
ship it to smelters in the Eastern
states, especially in Pennsylvania
However, these reducing works have
been closed for time and so it is
being sent over $4,000 miles to the
Dutch plant. It is claimed that at the
Rotterdam smelter the best results in
reducing tin scrap can be attained, as
the Dutch have secret process.
Also included in the cargo Of the
Anubis will be small sample ship
ment of Alaska tin ore. This was
brought from Nome and has been
awaiting shipment for some time. 1t
will be sent to smelter in Hamburg
and should the ore pan out profitably
it will probably open up new indus
try Of promising proportions.

Anti-Injunction and Tariff.
The proposed anti-injunction and
tariff planks in the platform to be
adopted by the convention continue to
attract attention and discussion among
the party leaders and are said to be
the only points upon which any issue
may be raised. Speaker Joseph G..
Cannon, one of the candidates for the
presidential nomination, came hurried
ly to the city from his home in Dan
vile last night, and today was sched-
uled for a conference with Senator Al
bert J. Hopkins of Illinois, who is Stat

the Taft people are successful in their
plans for organizing the convention.

AS to tariff revision, Cannon has al
ready had important conferences since
his arrival with Representatives Sere-
no e. Payne of New York and John
Dalzell of Pennsylvania-two of the
most important lieutenants in the
lower house of congress.

BERLIN MADE OBJECTIONS
TO NEW TRIPLE ALLIANCE

st. Petersburg, June 13.-It has been
learned here from competent source
that the recent meeting between King
Edward and Emperor Nicholas at Re.
val and the rapproachment between
Great Britain, Russia and France has
been the subject of grave representa-
tons on the part Of Germany, which
has met the threatened birth of new
triple alliance. with a display of a
mailed fist"
After the announcement of the Re
val meeting Russia was given to under
stand at Berlin that the conclusion of
a formal entente between these three
powers would be regarded as meas
ure hostile in tendency, or, to quote
the exact term used by the informant
of the Associated Press. was a "krie-
gesdrObund."
Whether such a development was
originally contemplated from the meet
ings between King Edward and the
president of France and King Edward
and the emperor of Russia is not stat
ed, but the immediate result of the
representations made in Berlin was the
publication of an obviously inspired ar
ticle in the Official Russia, which,
while speaking warmly in favor of the
meeting between King Edward EN-
peror Nicholas, declared that the sug-
gestion of new grouping of the powers
at the present time was impossible.
Along the same lines Foreign Secre-
tary Grey announced in the British
house of commons that no further ex-
pansion of the Anglo Russian conven-
ton was contemplated.
