Summing up the Munition for the hflt calendar year , ho sajs. "The position of the Ilrltls1 ! export trade may l.o thus numtned up The Interior market was. ns a wholf , lost to llrltlsh exporters , but the meat packers continue to use a certain num ber of Miawluck plates' and there Is still a limited consumption of llrlHsh plates for ceitaln special purposes 'Tho Atlantic eoist still offered a very largo market foi 'drawback' platw and a much icdiicud one for plates not Intended to be re-exported , and the gulf coast took a moderate number of Welsh plates for local consumption. "The c ly section of the market tint \.ai ntlll wholly supplied by south \Vules was the 1'aclflc coi t Taking thu Pacific coatt Import at lil.OOO.OOO pounds , that of the gulf roast at B 000 000 pounds and that of 'draw back' plates at 13,000,000 pounds , there re mains an Import of 03,000,000 pounds last year for cuusiimptl'n In tie United Status which must Lo d'strlbuted between the At lantic coast ami Interior points. " According to Mr 0 Itclrne's calculations It Is eptlma'ed tint 13rltl h plate i can be landed approximately at points on the At latttlc coast for ? tSS or 28 cents ( Is 2d ) above the jirie" of Amcrlcaa plites them , at Pacific porti , foi $3 & 4 , 01 22H cents ( lid ) Lc-luw. the price of i\merlcan platen then , at Chicago for $ J SS , or over ' 10 cents ( la .id ) nbovo the prlcu of Indlina made tlnplateu thcru , nt New Orleans for $381 , or 1C ceni i ( Sd ) abnvi tVoprlpeof Imllam plates there "I'ndcr existing rates of duty , therefore , ' the report proceeds "and at present prices , the only section of the American market In which llrltlsh plates of ordinary grades ( ex clusive of 'drawbacks ) can continue In tin long run to compete is the Pacific coast representing an annual consumption of about CO.OOO Oftn pounds In other portions of tht T'nltcd States the only Importations that can bo expected are a number of special brands suited for special purposes And this limited Importation can only last so long as the drmaml Is not of sufficient im portance to Induce native manufacturers to make the neccs-ary airangemcnts for pro ducing the special qualities of tlnplate , which they nro undoubtedly able to do" Mr O'Hclrne points out that the American tinplate - plate industry Is wholly dependent for ltn raw material on foreign Importation , as no tin hast been produced for the last foul years from any of the deposits of tin In the United States , viz South Riverside , Cal tht Hlack Hills of South Dakota , the Cash mine in Rockbrldgo county , Virginia , and nt Kings Mansion , N. C. In conclusion , It Is said that after a strict examination It ap pears to have been demonstrated that foi household , or har 1 usage the Hrltlsh tin outlasts the American product. It Is true the British tin Is not quite so bright , but It Is far more durable ; has a more substan tial body ; Is more evenly rolled , does not aggravate the tin working machines on ac count of Its smooth boJy , and docs not rust so quickly. For tinning purposes the America ! , product Is as good as the British the report says , but the latter Is preferable at equal prices American tlnplatu is brighter In.color , but It has not that working body as a rule ; the coatlngils not so evenly- run , and docs not make up as oven ana smooth as the Hrltlsh article. " The statement Is made also that Italian tin manufacturers have been making Inquir ies In the west and that Italian tin may be fore long figure In the American market. Mi HUM' TO riTi : M\itn % .

The city editor never cut out nu > of these slurs , for he wan no more n friend of the woman reporter than the rest of us. The olllco boy , that lord of creation , often re fused to run her'errands about the rooms , stating In his tefusal that ho "wasn't chasln' hlsself fcr womln , " Hinging Into his words all the contempt of which ho was capable.

If she know how cordially she was hated by the boss shu never gave any outwnrl sign by word or deed , but went serenely on wilting society matter and covering lltt'o ' nsplgnments ns though she was the greatest peisonage on the paper. It was after she had been with the paper three months that she made her gicat hit , and n name that has suonu icsplcmlcnt In the hlbtorj of the Times' scoops She was enabled to do this , too , because not one of the bojs was In the oiflcc , and she had taken a wrong street car.

Ho uanded her the address of rishcr and saldr "A telephone message s-ajs that he lias disappeared and that he Is going to suicide. Cover It. " Ho tore out , slamming the door after him She was much excited over the assignment because It was the flrbt one of Importance that had ever been given to he' . She threw her work Into her desk and actually trembled as she took down her hat from Its peg. As she stalled' for the elevator > she stopped and was about to ask the office- boy wha car to take to reach risher's , but she didn't ; she was afraid he would arrogate to himself some of the glorj tint would attach to the stoijWhen die reached the street a policeman gave hci the needed Information , so It was an hour fiom then that she was igolng up the walk to risher's home. A policeman was wandering about the vard , as i looking for the mis sing man In the shrubbery , and he asked her who she wab , but bho passed him coldlj- by. and , as the doon was open , she walked Into the house. Mis. Tlsher was hjsterlcal and so weio half a dozen neighbors who hud coma over to comfort her. "It will be perfectlv dreadful If the re- porteis learn of this , " ono of the women was saving as she wrung hot hands "All that Is known about It Is the note there on thu table " Thu woman reporter was not noticed In the excitement , and so she coolly picked up the note and saw that In a few words Klshcr had said that he was going to drown him self. She know of nothing else to do , for she said to herself that she didn't wish to ask Mis Fisher such a question a8 to whether their domestliclations had been happy , although bhe wondered If thej had. Miss Grayling was not aware that two street car lines traversed thu street In front of the rishcr home , BO she naturallj took thn first car that came along She did not notice her mlst.ike until the cat nail gotten down Into the manufacturing districts , v , hero tall tenements rose up like olHco buildings toward the sky , and wheic scores of dirty children gamboled In the gutters. Then s > ho hastily left the car. and , seeing onu iiass on another street a couple of blocks awav , she decided to go over there , thinking perhaps It would carry hei back to thu business dlstilct As she stool on the corner waiting for a car she saw a man rapidly approaching her. His head was bowed and his hat pulled down over his face. As ho passed her she caw something fall fiom his pocket , nnd , as It dropped at her feet , she glanced down aiiitd siw that It was a letter She caught It up with the Intention of calling to him and returning It , but as she glanced at the iiureiscrlptlon she nearly fainted She lead : "Hdsar Han ( ban rubei , 441C Glcnwood KVciiuo , Cl'v " That man was PI her , she thought.
