It will be seen in the cross section of hold 4 that samples Nos. 30 and 36, which were taken from the corn a short distance above the starboard tunnel, had a temperature of 132 and 128° F. and tested 36 and 46 c. c. in acidity. The corn in both samples had lost all vitality and was badly discolored. Compared to these, samples Nos. 37, 38, and 39, which were taken in the starboard tank from about the same height, but some distance away, did not exceed 65° F. in temperature and c. c. in acidity, and sample No. 35, which was taken from directly above the tunnel, but near the surface of the corn, had a temperature of but 85° F. Sample No. 29, which was also taken from above this tunnel, but near the sur- face of the corn, had a temperature of 90° F. The starboard shaft tun- nel, which had the two steam pipes in it, had a temperature inside the tunnel considerably higher than the tem- perature in the port shaft tunnel, which did not have any steam pipes in it. The corn surrounding the port shaft tunnel was "packed," moldy, and sour, and had a higher temperature than the corn a short distance away from the tunnel, but it was not hot or discolored. The same con- dition of damaged corn along and over the starboard shaft tunnel, as found in hold 4, was also found in holds 5 and 6, as will be seen from the cross sections of these holds. Sample No. 49, which was taken from the corn about a foot from the starboard shaft tunnel in hold 5, had a temperature of 11
