Carnegie and Bethlehem Companies Re-
fuse Government Offers for Armor.
WASHINGTON, July 24-Secretary
Long has received replies from the Car
negie and the Bethlehem companies to
his invitation to submit bids for supply
ing armor for the three battleships
Illinois, Wisconsin and Alabama, in ac-
cordance with the limitations placed by
congress upon the price to be paid for
the armor. Both of the companies de-
cline firmly to bid within the $500 limit,
OH the ground that it is not possible for
them to produce armor of the quail
ity they have been supplying to the
government at that figure. The Carne-
gle company makes an offer, which it
is understood the Bethlehem concern is
willing to repeat, to supply the diagonal
armor for the three battleships at a
price to be fixed by the navy depart.
ment at it's pleasure. This offer is made
in order that the work ON the ships
shall not be entirely stopped by the fail
nre to procure armor. The ship build.
ers, if this is done, will be able to go on
with their work until the ships are
afloat, inasmuch as the diagonal armor,
or that constituting the bulkheads, is
all Of the armor that is built into the
ships structure. The amount of such
armor will not exceed so tons for each
ship, very small proportion of the
total supply required.

Notwithstanding Denials 1t Is Thought
Railroads Are Confiscating 1t.
CLEVELAND, July 24.-General Man
ager w. R. Woodford of the Cleveland,
Lorain and Wheeling road admits that
his road is not hauling much West Vir-
ginia coal. He says his company has
on hand coal enough to last 60 days.
Thomas E. Young, manager for M.
A. Hanna & Co., received a telegram to
the effect that the operatives at the
Reynoldsville and Watson mines in the
West Virginia fields, had joined the
strikers. For some reason West Vir-
ginia coal is not arriving in Cleveland
in any considerable quantities. It
would appear that the railroads, their
denials Notwithstanding, are confiscat-
ing it at the price at mines on cars.
Reliable dealers declare there is q
market in Cleveland for every pound of
coal coming forward, and this state-
ment is confirmed, it would seem, by
the fact that one Of the largest power
establishments in the CITY bought sew

Michigans Governor Gives His Opinion
Of the Tariff Bill.
DETROIT, July 24.-The Evening News
publishes an interview with Governor
Pingree, in which the governor de.
nounces the pending tariff bill. He says
the duty on hides means an average in
crease of % cents on men s Shoes He
asserts that Armour, Swift, Morris and
Libbey control the hide market and will
coin millions ont of it. AS to sugar,
Governor Pingree said:
II wish some one would tell me how
a sugar duty that makes people pay
more is going to benefit them, or how a
higher price for sugar is going to bring
prosperity. 1t seems to me that the
trust is going to reap all the benefits
1.-The lumber schedule hits people of
moderate means the hardest. It in.
creases 50 the price per thousand. Not
much lumber is used these days in busi.
ness blocks and fine city residences.
It's the farmer and workingman who
have cause to complain, for they cannot
afford brick and stone. And it's all for
the benefit of the few who control the
remaining pine in Michigan and ad.
joining states.
Il don't recall that the Dingley bill
imposes any additional duty on paint.

Coal Scarce at st. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, July 24.-The Tudor Iron
Works, in East St. Louis, has closed
down three Of its departments, letting
out $50 men, OH account of the scarcity
of coal. 1t is stated that unless these
works obtain a supply of coal within
very few days the entire mill will have
to shut down, thus throwing 600 men
out of work. It is also stated that coal
is very scarce at the packing house at
and near the National stock yards, just
north Of East St. Louis, and that if re.
lief does not come very soon they will
have to close and let out 1000 employees.
