THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, 3TRIDAT, xOOTOBER 31, , 18?a 3 m . , H I AWAITING THE ISSUE. The Consummation of the Much-Talked-Of Tinplate Projects is BEPEKaiSKT UPON THE ELECTIOKS. Manufacturers Desire to See the Exact Talueof the TarifL BOTES FKOM TEE IKDDSTEIAL FIELD Much comment has been made on the tardiness with which local manufacturers have refrained from taking advantage of the protection afiorded them under the newly passed tariff law to develop their business and invest in still larger enterprises. This has been more especially the case regarding any of the oft-spoken about tinplate making prospects materializing. Prior to the passage of the act the air waB full of the large plants that only awaited the encouragement afforded by the tariff to spring into full working order; and the extreme de sire of manufacturers to engage in this species of money making was cited as an ad ditional reason why the measure increasing the import duty should become law. It was currently reported that all the black plate mills and galvanizing mills in this section only awaited the siening of he bill to turn out tinned plate oy the square yard, and that the price of the article named would fall in consequence of the large importations which would follow on the bill becoming law. But so far none of these projects have Bhown any signs of life, and tinplate has risen slightly, with every indication of it goice higher. Regarding the latter, it may be mentioned here that the Welshmen evince a disposition to be very conservative in contracting ahead in this country, and Beem rather disposed to await developments j cere before shipping to any extent. The reason for this apparent apathy on the part of manufacturers ana capitalists is easy to find. They are. in fact to use a sporting metaphor fighting low. "While recognizing that the tariff measure affords them sufficient protection against the foreign article, ther are charv of investing money in the business until they lorm some idea of the probable duration of the protective tarifi. Thev will, in short, do nothing until the complexion of the new Congress becomes visible. Even in the view of the most ardent Republicans, there is a shadow ot a doubt regarding how the elections may result Until this matter is settled to their satis faction, they will remain passive. Should the next Congress be Republican, there is scarcely any doubt that the many enter prises in posse will become in esse; should there he any doubt, the projects will be abandoned. TO PREVENT PRICE-CuTrXNO. ToolmakersMeetto Consider Arrangements "With This End in Vie w. The manufacturers of drilling supplies held a meeting yesterday for the purpose of effecting some arrangement against the fashion of under-cutting prevalent in the trade. The price list is practically aban doned and goodsare sold at such low rates as to leave very little profit. A proposition to keep each trade within a recognized district did cot meet with favor. As a result, arrangements were made for re organization with the view ol creating greater harmony and respect for a uniformi ty in prices. ENGLISH inHEES OK THE WAT. John Hartley, of Newcastle, Came Over to Dig Coal and Says Others Will Follow. John Hartley, a coal miner from New castle, England, with his wife and three boys, passed through the city yesterday on hjs way to Reycoldstown. He said that a good deal of interest was taken in his dis trict in mining matters in Pennsylvania. He said that many of his countrvmen weresellinc:heir household effects prepara tory to coming here. He said he had been told that there were better prospects for miners here than at home. PREPARE? G THEIR PLANS. Representatives of Organized Labor and the Retail Grocers in Consultation. A preliminary meeting between repre sentatives of organized labor in this county and the Retail Grocers Association was held yesterday at the rooms of the latter, as announced in Monday's issue of this paper. As already stated, the object of the pro posed coalition is to iorm an alliance for mutual protection. .Beyond a general dis cussion of the matters in point, nothing was done yesterday, and an adjournment was taken to meet again. A Fair of Signer. Eisne- & Phillips and Levy Brothers have sicaed the salesmen's scale. Labor Xotes. A CAB shop will be built at the Edgar Thom son Steel Works, where all the cars of Carnegie i Co. wi!t be built and repaired. There is a probability of the initiation fee to the Painters and Decorators' Unions being increased from 10 to $25, according to Air. Jewell. Caekkgie, Phipps fc Co. are again reported as baring in contemplation the erection of a 36 lncb beam mill. This will be news only to those m ho don't read The Dispatch. H. Chester, of Plasterers' Union 93. AI toona, was in the city yesterday loosing for w ork. His card cannot be recognized here be cause his union is not in good standing. Defeeked Axxvity Bonds. The old and strong Home Life Insurance Company, whose advertisement can be seen in another column of this paper, is introducing a novel but practical plan in its "Deferred Annuity Bond." This bond, which is now first intro duced and offered only by the Home Life gives an opportunity to secure a contract for an annuity, to begin at a specified future day, the paments to provide for same being made in equal installments for a given num ber of years. All premiums will be returned if deatn occurs during that time. No medi cal examination is necessary, and dividends of profits are cumulative. Young unmarried men frequently object to the semi-tontine plans because they are paying no small part of the premium for life insurance which they do not desire. Upon the Home Life Deferred Annuity Bond plan they are making a prime investment. A contract from the stanch Old Home Life for the payment of an annuity is as sterling an investment security as "the most conservative investor should ask for. With the fall of interest rates annuities are becoming more desired. Parents desiring to provide for children can do so sensibly and safely bv securing this liberal form of an nuity. The many pen who have, on account ot physical disability or bad family record, been prevented from securinelile insurance, bhonld obtain a Deferred Annnity Bond, as they are cot required to pass any medical examination, and can thus provide for later periods of life when their physical condition will prevent them from earning a living. This much-needed bond, it must be remem - bered, is cot offered by any assessment con cern, but by a company which stands in the front rank of the old and strong life insur ance companies of the world.

An Oversight That Will Save Several Dollars for the Farmers. It is supposed by the County Commission ers, or at least by Mr. P. W, Siebert, that Ross township school directors either have enough money to run their schools, or are indifferent regarding the future of the bull wark of American liberty, or are opposed to taxation without representation of man's best friend among quadrupeds, possibly among any kind of peds the dog. Conse quently, Tray, Blanche and Sweetheart can bark and snap untaxed at all intruders. The preservation of sheep is a minor con sideration, as Ross township's wealth in wool is small. The assessor states that the school boards did not make the order, and some say it is because it would be unpopular, and "Love me, love my dog," now reads in Ross, "If yon love me don't tax my dog." There are over 300 dogs in Ross and consequently popular education loses between 5200 and $300. There are several districts in the county where the dog tax was not levied, but in most of them it was from want of proper posting, as the authorities were under the impression that the law did not take effect the present year. DE0WNED IN MUD. Sad Fate of a Horse on a Formerly Paved Street of FloomOeld. The difficulties attending the delivery of goods to East Enders were seldom as great as now. Streets in every direction are up heaved for electric roads and sewerage pur poses, and rains have been so incesssant of late that work has been delayed beyond all expectations. It now looks as though there was to be no let up to this condition of things before spring. A representative of the East Liberty and Wilkinsburg Express Company said yesterday: "I have never known the East End streets in as bad condition at this time of the year as now. Many of the streets are about im passible. Last night, on Liberty avenue in Bloomfield, which was paved with cedar blocks, warranted to last a century, one of my teams came to a sudden standstill, and when the driver went to the Iront he dis covered a dead horse which had mired down. When a horse is drowned in mud on amain paved avenue, within four miles of the postofSce, there is certainly some reason for complaint." E0H THE PHILADELPHIA. BAB. A case That May Besult in Disbarring Two Quaker City Attorneys. Francis Tracey Tobin, a well-known young lawyer of Philadelphia, was at the Seventh Avenue yesterday on his way home from Armstrong county, where he had been on the stump. Mr. Tobin is the central figure in a sensational case in the Quaker City, the result of which will probably disbar two well known attorneys from practicing at the Philadelphia bar. The case is exciting great interest there and will come np before the Bar Association to morrow for a final hearing. The attorneys are William W. Smithers and Prank B. Stockley, who are charged by Mr. Tobin with conspiracy to defraud him of a fee received from a client GIVEN TO THE CARNEGIE LIBBABY. Several Donations That Were Gratefully Received by Mr. Stevenson. A rare and qnaint volume, "The Western Farmers' Almanac for 1829," printed at Pittsburg in that year by H. Holdship & Co., has been donated to the Carnegie Free Library by Mrs. J. S. Liggett, of 3615 Locust street, Philadelphia, and back files of the Pittsburg Banner and about SO vol umes of Government doenments, the dona tion of the Pittsburg Presbyterian Banner Company. The Philadelphia donation was the resnlt of a notice in The Dispatch of a recent donation, t , An Alderman Pays a Fine. Alderman A. Eisenbeis, of Allegheny, was fined 510 and costs yesterday on a charge of neglecting his family, preferred by Agent Dean, of the Anti-Cruelty Society. A number of witnesses testified that Eisenbeis fails to provide for his family and that Mrs. Eisenbeis'haB been confined to her bed on account or a lack of something to eat. WHY AKE THEBE MORE Everett Pianos Sold in These Cities Than Any Other Makes? This question was asked of an Associated Press reporter, who, always on the lookout for news, proceeded to investigate, and was convinced that there have been double the number of Everetts sold during the past year to that of any other make represented in Western Pennsylvania, and led him to be lieve that the extraordinary popularity of this make of pianos was due solely to the fact: They are among tho best upright pianos now manufactured, and while this cannot be successfully disputed, tbey are sold at a great reduction from the prices asked by retail dealers. This result is brought about by the new club or co-operative system of conducting the piano business, adopted by Alex. Boss, of Allegheny City. The plan is a simple business problem, it provides for the purchase of 350 pianos for each club, thus securing for the mem bers the great reduction of 575 on each piano from the retail price. The plan'also pro vides methods of payments to suit everyone. Members can pay cash and get their piano at once, or can arrange to have them deliv ered upon payment of 525 cash and $10 monthly, while those who only pay $1 per week will get their pianos in a short time, as there is one piano delivered each week to each club on these latter payments. There being 350 members, each paying 51 per week, they get the piano at the lowest cash price. Mr. Boss is now delivering pianos to two clubs, A and B. The membership in club B is not quite complete and anyone wanting a piano should apply for member ship at once, thus securing the redaction in price, then pay as they choose from 1 per week up. The pianos can be seen at 137 Federal street, Allegheny, or circulars can be had by applying to Alex. Boss, the man ager, at the above address. mwf A Benefit for the Poor.
