after the contract for tho building of the

have its own tin mines and reducing plant

the hundreds of thousands. The mines
have also been secured. AT the works in
Baltimore several new processes for the

been recently patented, will be applied.
The patents have been purchased by the

the Baltimore plant itself. 1t will
cover several acres, and will
be the largest tin plate con-
