U. S. Gets Tin Order.

The Chinese government has placed a tin order with The American Sheet and Tinplate Co., totalling $240,000, or a total of 70,000 boxes. The Chinese have offered no statement as to why the order has been placed but the European war which makes it difficult to get English tin is thought to be the only motive.
