New . Yobk. Oct. 19.- An organized

towns. The farmers alliance, patrons of
industry and other orders are canvassing

to congressmen in favor of the project
and petitions to congress are being circu
lated in different parts of the - country.

- ' DETROIT TIN PLATE.
The Steel I'lates are Made In FittKburg
and Finished in Michigan.
Detroit has a tin plate factory which
has been in operatiou for the past year.
It has a daily capacity equivalent to 200
boxes, says the Toledo Blade'. It man
ufactures milk cans and lanterns, and
supplies the trade with milk-can stock
in sizes to suit. It annually . uses large
quantities of tin-plate, most-of which,
since the new tariff law went into effect,
has been tinned in its own factory. The
black plates of steel ready for tinning
are manufactured m Pittsburg, shipped
to Detroit by the car load, and picked,
cleaned, dipped and finished in their
factor v.
This is American tin plate,, and that,
too, of a superior quality. The plate is
not put upon the market, the company
using all it manufactures in its own
work. ", In its tin plate department it has
now five "stacks" of three pots each,
with a total daily capacity of 200 boxes
of ordinary tin plate. A sixth stack is
in process of erection. This is American
tin plate, made in an American factory.
It is not necessary that the steel be rolled
in the same establishment in which it is
tinned, any more than it is necessary for
a tailor to run a woolen mill to make the
cloth he manufactures into clothing, or
a shoe maker to run a tannery to furnish
him leather, ' Every part of the tin
plate manufactured by this company is
American. The steel sheets are made of
American metal by American workmen
in Pittsburg. They are hauled on Amer
ican railroads to Detroit and there coated
with tin by American workmen, and the
product is sold to the American people.

Democrats Apparently Concede JIcKln
. , .... ' ley ' Election.
A special telegram from Columbus,
October 12, to the Chicago Inter-Ocean,
gives this statement :' - rr, ,.; !
' The impression that has prevailed tb a
marked degree during the past few days
that the democratic managers have given
tip all hopes of carrying Governor Cam
pbell through has now grown to a posi
tive belief. This belief has already be
come general, .distinctively upon the
boards in - the pool rooms. Last week
propositions were posted, "$100 to $80
that McKinley is elected." The propo
sition today read, "$100 to $70 that Mc
Kinley is a winner."
It is learned tonight that no takers have
put in an appearance at these fignres
and none are expected, although certain
sporting men have offered premiums at
these, figures and want to- put np ' a few
thousand. One gentleman received
$1000 from Chicago to bank on McKinley
at the best figures. "But," added the
Chicago man, "bank regardless."
A dispatch from: Cincinnati tonight
gives quotations as follows : i 'McKin
ley, $100;' Campbell, $50, and business
decidedly dull. Democrats' refuse' to bid
except on majority." ,
' There is an air of depression about
the democratic headquarters, and there
is every indication that the heavyweights
of the democracy are at .the present
moment conducting a secret gum-shoe
campaign in the sagebush in the hope of
capturing legislative and senatorial dis
tricts from under the noses of republi
cans . This scheme came nigh' succeed
ing six years ago, and it is not probable
that they; will be surprised this year.
The campaign of ,' McKinley, : Sherman
and-Foraker, to say nothing of other
campaigners, has been- tod spirited to
admit of surprises.
- SEDITIOUS ANARCHISTS. r.

: Philadelphia, Oct. 17. Before Judge
Biddle today a hearing was, had of the
habeas corpus cases in the " interest of
Julius Moskowitz, Isidore Brenner and
Morris Gillia, Russian Jews, . charged
with a breach of the peace in distribut
ing anarchistic circulars, making incen
diary speeches and inciting riot. The
officers testified as to their : utterances at
a meeting. , They advised their hearers
not to believe in God, not to fear the po
lice: condemned the president of the
United States, and said he ought to be
killed. Judge Biddle declares that he
had no doubt that the preaching of their
doctrines was seditious. These foreign
ers' came to this country voluntarily, and
the first thing they did was to attack our
institutions.; They were enemies to the
human race. He held all for trial. V:

McKINLEY'S BILL AGAIN
Harrison Writes to an Ohio Editor that
He is in Full Sympathy With Its
Provisions.
The Democrats of Ohio Have About
Give Up the Contest to the High
Tariff Men.
A Democratic Victor" in Ohio Means
More than the Election of a Demo
crat Governor.
New York, Oct. 16. An Ohio editor
having written Mr. Blaine that the
democratic papers were parading him as
an opponent of the McKinley bill, he
replies under date of Augusta, Me., jOct. ;
14, to John Hop'ey, editor of the Journal
of Bucyrns, O., as follows: .
"You inform me the democratic paper
in your town and many democratic -:
papers throughout Ohio keep the follow- .
ing paragraph standing in type: 'But
there is not a section or line in the Mc
Kinley bill that will open the market
for another bushel of wheat or another
barrel of pork. James G. Blaine to Sena
tor Fry, July 11 , 1890.' This sentence is
garbled and taken lroin its proper con
nection, What I diday is the follow
ing: . "
"I do not doubt that in many respects
the tariff bill pending in congress is a
just measure, and that most of its pro
visions are in accordance with the wise -prlicy
of protection , but there is not a';
section or line in the entire bill that will
open a market for another bushel of
wheat or another pound of pork.' The,
letter in which this paragraph occurs '
wrs written to Senator Frye July 11,
1890, and the McKinley bill did not be
come a law until October 1, nearly three
months thereafter. J
"In my letter to Senator Frye I ob
jected to the bill because it did not con
tain a reciprocity clause, which would
provide a market for wheat, pork, and
for the other products of the farm and
for various fabrics. Before the bill was
finally passed a reciprocity clause was
inserted and a large addition made to ,
the free list. It will therefore be seen
from what I said in my letter that the
objection, which I made to the McKin
ley bill, was entirely removed before the
bill became a law. Let me further say
the reciprocity clause has given an
amply market for many barrels of flour .
and many pounds of pork. Brazil some
months ago entered into a treaty by
which many American articles were ad
mitted free. Flour, is made free and
pork is admitted at nominal duty. Cuba
and Porto Rico' have reduced the duty
on flour from $5 80 a barrel to $1 (which
gives us the market) besides putting .
nearly a hundred articles of American,
production on the free list. Sarw
Domingo has made a reciprocity treaty
with flour and pork on the free list, be- -8ides
a large number of other articic3.'
Other, treaties for reciprocity are in
progress. Germany, without negotiating
a formal treaty, lias removed the prohi
bition on pork, and our government, in
consideration thereof, has left her sugar
on the. free list. This opens to us an en
tirely new market, and $15,000,000 to
$20,000,000 of American pork will be
consumed per annum, where nota pound
has been taken for ten years. The reci- -procity
provision is proving very success-- -nil,
especially in faim products, and
more particularly in the case of the two
articles mentioned in the paragraplu
quoted flour and ; pork. I am ' notr
therefore, an opponent of the McKinley
bill, as the democratic papers in Ohio -are
constantly alleging. On the con
trary, I have cordially supported it ever
since it was pefected by the insertion of
the leciprocity clause. " -
What a Democratic Victory Means.
Columbus. O., Oct. 17. A democratic -success
in the legislative elections this
fall,, it is generally conceded, would ' :
mean the enactment of a law providing
for the choosing of presidential electors
by congressional districts. 'This would
practically throw Ohio into the demo
cratic column in the electorial college, as
by the present system of districts, which
would, of course, be retained, 15 teen of
the twen ty-one districts are democratic.
So it is plain that there is more in the ,
Ohio campaign than the election of gov
ernor. Only One Vote Against It. .
Ellensbubg, Wash., Oct. 17, The
proposition to bond the middle irrigation
district was voted on yesterday, and
there was only one vote against it in the
entire .district. Moet of the right of way
has already been secured, and bids will
be called for as soon as the vote is can
vassed. One of the directors waited on
the Northern Pacific land officials at Ta
coma, and they readily granted the right
of way on all their lands through which
the ditch runs. Contractors are now on
the ground anxious to bid on the work
and take the bonds in payment.
