greater than even for Tin plates themselves.
~ the demand for light plate continues, as
3t present tt promises 10, / think tie use OF
such gauges viii retsrd somewhat the
American manufacture; for i understand
fha- the demand for 30 and s. tagCerS from
America is rs great as ever, and ] doubt if

Does not this show pretty clearly that
the new industry established" in this
country is almost altogether a dip
ping industry, the black plates being
imported and dipped in imported tin;
and that the bulk Of the tin-plate made
in this country is the rougher and
thicker product or terne plate used for
roofing purposes, which is not what is
known as tin-plate, and which was
made in this country before the Nc
kinley bin was dreamed OF? The peo-
pie are paying the annual $4,000, 900
increase 10 the price Of tin-plate that
Che domestic manufacturers Of this
roofing tin may make larger profits.
Meanwhile there is no American thu
plate industry in sight.
