proven by the fact that the follow
ing offer, through the EUeBiRg Post
of New York, has gone unchallen-
gpd. Messrs. c. S. Trench d Co.
would like TO take 6,000 boxes Of
American tin in monthly Install
ments Of 1000 boxes at S515, $500,
&j.25, $3.50, $j.35 and S5.40 respect
lively. at will be noticed" says
the Post, "that c. S. Trench & Co.'S.
offer is increased 3 cents per box
per month for each successive
month, July 10 December, which is
exactly contrary to what might
have been expected were there any
prospect Of the present American
samples resulting in an American
production of tin plates during the
next six months. Here stands
buyers ready to pay 30 cents per
box more for delivery seven
months from now than the prices
ruling today, and $1,1O per box
more fifteen months after the pas
sage of the Mckinley bill than the
price ruling Mt that time"
n. H. Cort d Co., another large
Gotham firm, has made similar
offer us follows: ave now beg to
notify any American manufactur-
er that we are still in the market
for 1000 boxes each month from
July to December, in all 5000 boxes
&c 1920 Bessemer steel coke, and
will pay any fair price that we can
secure them at. We will at the
same figure, give the preference to
the American make over the i'm
ported article Further than this,
we are in want of other grades of
tin plates, and should be pleased
to receive quotations from any
manufacturer"
Now it behooves those manufac-
turers who have been doing SO
much talking to come down with
the tin. If they can supply the tin
why don't they do it? Newspaper
talk and samples for campaign
purposes are not what is wanted.
These firms are reliable and mean
what they say.

Tin Plate Prevaricators.

When Gen. Butterworth declared
that the increased tariff on tin plate
would cost the American people
$6O,OO0,000 he was not guilty of eX-
aggeratiOn. Ills statement was
undoubtedly the result of careful
investigation of the tariff question
and probably fell far short of the
reality. Just one year ago tin
plate that now cost S5.lj per box
at New York was selling at the
same place for $4.35, which is ihe
direct result of the increased tariff,
though it has rlot yet gone into ef-
feet. But there is no American
lln OH the market. This is amply

THERE must be screw loose in
Minister Whitelaw Reid's diplo-
matte machine. Republican papers
have long been telling their read
ers that Mr.. Reid, backed by the
administration, was hard at work
t0'secure the free admission of
American pork into France, and
that there was probability that
he would succeed. Now comes the
news that that the French govern
ment has decided, not to admit
American pork free Of duty, but to
largely increase the existing duty
thereupon. That's the kind of a
diplomat Mr.. Reid is.

Why Il This?

When the great and only McKin-
ley bin was passed the idea was
extended that manufacturers
would all get rich, would work
their factories full time and would
increase the pay of their employees
to the full extent of the increase of
duty. The prospectus was an in
teresting one to contemplate. The
believers in that peculiar school Of
political economy which teaches
that the more taxes we pay the
richer we get, were happy, and they
climbed up on the housetops to
give voice to their exceeding great
joy. Judging from these antics it
was to have been expected that the
wool farmers of Ohio would sell
their product for its weight in gold,
that every roof would be covered
by and every cook use nothing bnt
American tin, that laborers would
build palaces and manufacturers
would throw their surplus cash into
the streets. But somehow or an
other those roseate dreams have
not been realized. Among the
woolen manufacturers, even, there
is trouble. 1t is not alone in Ohio
or New York, but in Illinois as
well. In Wayne county in that
state there is q little city named
Fairfield, which has long been the
home of prosperous woolen mill.
Up to the time of the passage Of
this Mckinley cure-all it had been
prosperous. It's owners made mon
ey and it gave employment to-
many people. Last year the capac-
ity was increased from 80 to 220
looms. And yet, so soon after the
great panacea went into effect, the
following has been issued to place
in the pay envelope of the employ
es:
Office of the Fairfield Wooden
Mills, Fairfield, Ills, June, s, 1891.
We take this method of saying to
those in our employ that this is the
hardest year in our experience in
the manufacturing business, and
in this we are not alone, as at II re-
cent meeting of the jeans manu-
facturers, in Louisville, KY, the
expression was unanimous, and the
great problem was to know. what
to do to create a demand for our
product at remunerative prices.
1t was decided by a unanimous
vote that the only way to do this
would be to curtail production.
Some were favorable to shutting
down entirely until the outlook inn
proved, but it was thought advis-
able for both employer and en-
ploye to divide and run part of
the time, which we will begin this
week, running four days-frOm
Monday until Thursday-and con-
tinuing from week to week until
further notice. To our weavers we
wish to say that they can rely on
constant work during this fOuI
days run.
A condition of trade that neces
sitates even Il partial stoppage we
regret very much, especially so as
we have had so much irregularity
the last few months. But we fully
expect to emerge from this trouble
in splendid shape, and will be
ready for a good business in the
near future.
We would advise patience and
frugality on the part of everyone,
and be ready when business revi-
yes and we start full again, to take
