THURSDAY, JUNE 18, 1896,
The Week's Commercial Summary.
Call loans are slightly easier at Toronto,
with offerings increasing. The. general
rate is 534 per cent.
Stocks of wheat at Port Arthur and
Fort William - are 1,87 $.596 bushels as
against 361,186 bushels a year. ago.
The •stock of wheat at Toronto is 63,531
bushels, an increase of 22,000 for the
week A year ago the stock was 42,616
bushels.
- The net profits of Canadian Pacific in
April show an increase of $39,583, and
for the first four months of the year a
• gain of $400,108.
There is a better movement in teas,
with fair orders received by Toronto
dealers for medium qualities. Canned
salmon firmer •at $1.15 for ordinary
brands, and $1.45 for horseshoe.
There is a further decline in wheat,
• with prices the lowest so far on the
present crop. In Chi sago the decline has
been five cents within a week. Small
exports and large receipts in the west are
the bearish factors. •
The Canadian Pacific railway has
collected reports -from its agents through-
out Manitoba and the Northwest which
show the area of wheat sown this year to
be 10 per cent, less than last, tin account
of the lateness of the season. As wet sea -
'sons have invariably been most bountiful,
it is believed the quantity will be quite
as great, if not greater, than last year.
The visible supply of wheat in the
united gates and Canada is now
60,3.40.000 bushels, a decrease of 958,000
bushels last week, A year ago the visible
supply was 52.229,000 bughels, The
amount of wheat afloat to Europe is
80;400.000 bushels, a decrease of 880,000
bushels for the weel.. A year ago the
amount afloat was. 43,o90,000 bushels.
The recent sale of London City deben
tures to the Bank of British North.
America, is another evidence of the
solidity of Canadian securities in general,
and of the high credit which London
deservedly enjoys. The amount sold was
$209,119,00, anti realized 4258,079.011
interest at 339 per cent., both interest
and principal being payable at the
Treasurer's Mike, London.
Harold Eagle, Esq., Haldimand county,
president of the Brantford Dairymen's
Board of Trade, hat offered a twenty five
dollar cup for competition at the
Southern fair. The prize will be for the
best dairy cow from which milk has
been supplied to a cheese factory for two
months of this season. The competition
may be limited to the patrons of factories
represented on the Brantford cheese
market. These factories are situated in
the counties of Brant, Waterloo, Went-
worth, Lincoln, Welland, Haldirnand and
Norfolk.
There were 29 failures in the Dominion
last week, as against 21 the week before,
and 15 in the corresponding week of a
year ago, Quebec heads the list with
fourteen, being an increase of seven
over the previous week; of this number
two were rated under $1,000, and the
balance had our lowest credit .or blank
rating. Ontario had eleven, none of
which had a rating higher than $500,
and the largest number had no credit
rating. Nova Scotia had two—Manitoba
and British Columbia one each. None
were reported from New Brunswick or
Prince Edward Island,
Dun & Co. say: There is little of an
encouraging nature to say with regard
to the trade situation at Toronto.
Travellers find country merchants acting
with the greatest caution, and the
'demand for goods is restricted to the
barest necessities. As stated by us last
week this state of things is not likely to
change for the better until after the
elections on the 2ilyd lust. There is a
further decline in the prices of grain,
and inoluding all cereals prices in Ontario
now are the lowest remembered by the
oldest dealers. This is very discouraging
to farmers, and aecnunts for the low
prices of good Ontario agriculturi,.lands.
Cattle, cheese, butter and hogs are also
lower than usual at this season of the
year. The outlook for this season's grain
crops, however, is not very encouraging;
on the other hand the yield in Ontario
is likely to be smaller than last year,
while in Manitoba the acreage in wheat
is 10 per cent. less than in 1895. This
may have some effect later on the prices
of produce. Discounts at the banks are
unchanged, while the offerings of funds
on stock collateral are a little more
liberal.

NEW COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY.
;three Methods Devised. All of Which Come
Near Solving the Problem.
Recently, at the Royal Institution;
London, a lecture was delivered by M.
Gabriel Lippmnnn, membre del'Institut,
on "Color Photography," in which it was
indicated that the problem of producing
colored photographs by the direct action
of light is solved, or very nearly solved.
Three methods of getting colors have
been devised. As long ago as 1840 M.
Becquerel obtained good colored impres-
sions on a daguerreotype plate, but the
image was not "liked" in the photo-
graphic sense and was destroyed by ex-
posure to daylight. Within the last ten
years much had been accomplished by
"the three -color method, •' which has
been described from time to' time in its
several stages of development. It is,
however, an indirect method. The colors
are not generated by the action of light
when producing, or when viewing, the
picture, but by the application of ani-
line subsequent to the production of the
picture. The three -color method, says M,
Lillprnann, "gives a very good approxi-
mation to the truth, and probably has a
great future before it," but it requires
much skill and has at best but a limited.

field. •
The third and. latest tis that of M. •I NOTHING LIKE IT.
Lippmann himself, which he describes ��
as "the interferential method." A de-
scription of it was first published in
1891, and its latest results were exhib- •
ited at the Royal Institution by the in -
venter to the great 'satisfaction of an an- '
dieuce which contained many distin-
guished scientists. A number of photo-
graphs taken by the interferential method
were shown, and "the colors of stained
glass and of natural object, such as
trees and flowers, were reproduced," says
the London Times, "with wonderul bril-
Haney."
The new method utilizes the well.
known fact that light reflected from the
surfaces of thin films—ns in the soap
bubble—produces colors by the interfer-
ence of rays less than a whole wave
length apart. "Newton's rings" afford.
the typical example of the phenomenon
in question, and Newton himself has
furnished the explanation. M. Lipp-
mann's method requires two .conditions
to be met. First, a transparent grainless
photographic film of any kind capable of
giving a colorless, fixed image by the
usual means; and, second, a metallic
mirror in immediate contact with the
film during the time of. exposure. The
sensitive film may be made of chloride,
iodide or bromide of silver contained in
a substratum of albumin collodion or
gelatine. The mirror is easily formed in
contact with the film by the use of mer-
oury. The photographic plate being first
inclosed in a camera slide, mercury is al-
lowed to flow in behind it from a small
reservoir connected with the slide by In-
dia -rubber tubing, The slide is then
placed in the camera and the picture
taken. After exposure the slide is re-
moved from the camera and the mercury
reservoir is lowered so as to allow the
mercury to flow back into it. The plate
is then taken out, developed and fixed.
The ordinary developers are used, and for
fixing cyanide or bromide of potassium
is employed. When dry and examined by
reflected light, the picture diplays the
colors of the object photographed in all
their brilliancy.
Thus, it appears, bright -color photo-
graphs may be obtained without chang-
ing the processes of ordinary photog-
raphy. The same films, developers, etc.,
are employed, and even the secondary op-
erations of intensification and isochro-
matie abtion may be successfully applied.
The mirror behind the film during ex-
posure makes the whole difference. From
a chemical point of view nothing is
changed, the result being a uniform
brownish deposit of reduced silver. In an
ordinary photograph this deposit is a
formless cloud of Metallic particles, but
in the Lippmann color photograph the
cloud has stratifications. It is divided
into a number of equidistant strata par-
allel with the surface of the plate. These
strata by their action on light decompose
it and give the effect of color to the pic-
ture. Each color of the spectrum produces
its appropriate stratum in the film dur-
ing the exposure of the plate in the
camera, and in the completed picture
each stratum reproduces its appropriate
color. In theory, at least, the Lippmann
process leaves little to be desired, and the
practical results give reason to believe
that color photography is now an accom-
plished fact. The simplicity of the pro -
mess is very much in its favor. —Baltimore
