GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

CHICAGO, June 4.-The situation in the
wheat market today was similar to tha'
OF the previous session. the July delivery
being subjected again to heavy selling
pressure by leading commission houses,
while the more deferred futures were in
moderate demand. AS result of the
continued profit taking In the July option
its prices broke nearly l cent early In
the day. Other deliveries. however, re-
mained comparatively steady at slight
gains. Reports of rust in the fields in
southern Illinois had a slightly bullish
erect. The opening on July was tsai4c
10 3sa1zc higher. at 119 to 119h, but later

lac to 1sc higher. at 73s to 1871. and sold
off to 727s.

lsc to 1sahc higher, at 537sao4 to 81. and

tinued light receipts Of live hogs through

The Rusting Of Tin Plate


Tin. is a metal which, like "copper" ac-
CELEBRATES the corrosion Of iron by aiding
in the oxidation of the hydrogen set free
by the reaction. If, therefore, in the man.
ufacture of the so-called tin plate, winch
Is sheet iron or steel covered with a layer
of metallic tin, there be imperfections Oh
pin holes in the tin coating, these chan
nels through the tin to the iron will be-
come centers of corrosion which rapidly
destroys the plate 1t is impossible tc
detect these imperfections by simple
inspection, and hence users of tin plates
have been unable to test the quality OF
their raw material from this point OF
view. Since the iron must pass into solu-
tion at these exposed points In the tin
coating, their presence may be easily
located by flowing upon the tin surface
solution of gelatin or glue in which is
dissolved some potassium ferricyanide.
When the jelly has stiffened the iron will
pass into solution through the holes in
the tin. and reacting with the fer
ricyanide will leave a bright blue spot In
the Jelly. Variations In the quality of
tin plate may thus he easily detected.
