STERLING STEEL co. FAILURE.
Bureau OF Naval Ordnance Ofieiais Make
a Statement.

WASHINGTON, April 90,-Oficials OF
the bureau of naval ordnance deny that
the bureau Is resp onsible In any way
for the suspension Of the Sterling Steel
Co. of MeKecsport, Pa, through fall
ure TO receive payment for armor-
piercing shells delivered to the navy
department. On the contrary the
bureau officials say that the Sterling
Co has not requested payment, and
Furthermore, it was agreed between
that concern and the department that
delivery under the contract should not
begin until May 10. The company, how
ever, has already delivered two consign-
ments of 13-inch shells, amounting to
about $4,000, on the contract agree
ment, and not 100000 worth as al
legged to have been stated by an official
of the firm. Approved bills OF these
consignments were given by the do
partment, with the understanding that
payment should be made rs II delivery
did not begin until May 10. The state.
ment attributed to Sterling Go. Off
Ger that money intended to pay for
these shells was used for another pur-
pose is denied at the department.
