Secretary Root Relieves n Company
by His Decision.
When Secretary Alger made his order
some months ago renewing the second con-
tract with the Driggs-Seabury Gun and
Ammunition Company he left the question
of penalties on the first contract in abey
ance. This interferes with the payment to
the company on deliveries already made,
as payments were held up, owing to the
staniing penalties.
Application was made to Secretary Root
for either a remission of the penalties or
an adjustment of the matter so payments
could be made Secretary Root has Tow
rendered 4 decision which relieves the
company of the immediate payment of PEN
aities and holds the penalties in allegiance
until the deliveries have all been made.
Meanwhile the payments will be made
on goods delivered, and as rapidly as de-
liveries are made. The final adjustment Of
the penalties is to be made after the con-
tract has been filed, the bond OF the COM
pany being considered sufficient guarantee
of payment of penalties
