about all the treaties. and he directly, and in the most emphatic manner. ap- proved of them.
 1T want to say, also. that each treaty was presented to the secretary of the treasury. was gone over with him, and was approved by him, as chief of the department most affected"
 As to the reported statement of Rep resentative Dalzell of Pennsylvania. that the latest official declaration of the republican party on the reciprocity question" is contained in the platform of 1900. to the effect that it favored the policy of reciprocity so directed as to open our markets on favorable terms for what We do not ourselves produce in return for free foreign markets" Mir. Kasson said:
 That kind of reciprocity is impos- sible. Even the reciprocity views of MT. Blaine, restricted as they were in- cluded the application of the principle to sugar, molasses and hides, all of which We produce in this country. The United States now extends from the Arctic regions to the equator. and We produce everything that any other country produces. with the exceptions of tea and argols. We even have one tea farm in South Carolina. Mir. Dal- zell migh: approve of reciprocity treaty that admits argols. but the real views of the republican party are those that were enacted into law in the fourth section of the Dingley bill"
 As to the present status of the reel procity treaties. MT. Kasson said that only one of the conventions, that with the Island of Trinidad, is before the senate for action, and none has expired by limitation. There is some conten- ton here. even among members of con gross, that the two years mentioned in section four of the Dingley bill having expired. the treaties have expired also. n this point Mir. Kasson said:
 President Mckinley knew that the two years mentioned in the Dingley bill could not limit his authority in the matter. No act of congress can set aside powers vested by the constitution and the president has the authority at any time. with the cooperation of the senate, to negotiate reciprocity treaties. But MT. Mckinley said that he recog- nized the moral obligation imposed by the Dingley bill, and that he would not negotiate any treaties besides those now before the senate. after the expiration of the two years

THE ACTIVITY IN IRON
PreSidentOf BeSSemer Pig Iron
 Association Looks Ahead
He Says There is no Intention of Rais- ing the Price of Iron-The Policy Will be to Maintain Steady Market.

New York, Oct. 24.-Joseph G. Butler, president of the Bessemer Pig Iron association, which represents the inde- pendent furnaces of the Mahoning ana, Shenango valleys, is in the city. The Bessemer Pig Iron association by it's sales to the United States Steel cor poration, it's largest customer, regu- lates the price of furnace products. A few days ago the association sold 50,- coo tons of iron to the Steel corpora ton.
 MT. Butler says the furnaces he rep resents are booked well into Decem- Der. There has been no change in the price of Bessemer pig iron said MT. Butler, flor the past three months, and indications are that there will be no change for some time- It is the ob- ject of the association to maintain prices at a level satisfactory to con sumer and producer. We are in a posi- tion to advance the price of pig iron without curtailing production, but We prefer not to. Our policy is similar to that of ths United States Steel corpo- ration. Flucuating prices indicate un- settled market conditions. The fact that the demand is steady, and prices maintained, is q sign that the market is established on q sound and healthy basis. It is my opinion that the con sumption of pig iron at the present time is slightly in excess of production
 ''The outlook for 1902 is exceedingly bright, and iron and steel consumption will be more pronounced next year than in any preceding one. providing no dis turbing clements, now unforeseen, arise. The general prosperity of the iron and steel business is reflected in the heavy railroad demand for steel rails. Judg- ing from present conditions, steel rail construction in 1902 will break all pre-. vious high records. It is safe to say that all classes of business will have continued prosperity.
 Iron and steel workers are receiving higher wages than ever before in the history of the industry. Worlmen are contented and prosperous.
 Al the furnaces in the Mahonins and Shenanso valleys, except two or three that are undergoing repairs, are in operation. The steel strike had good results as well as bad For example, it enabled furnacemen to catch up with their orders. ard make repairs
 A Pittsburg correspondent has the to say: "I. is a reina rISable condition that the merchant producers of pig iron have stock now which would meet the requirements of their market for little more than a week. On tho first of this month the stocks had been curtailed to about 240,OOo tons. Fur ther advances in pig iron prices are ex- pected. the market now being practi- cally open, although the organized pro ducers of Bessemer pig iron adhere 70 the minimum price of s15.25 at the val ley furnaces.
 Orders now on hand for rails. de- livery next year. aggregate 100000 tons, or more than third of the book fngs for delivery the present year. The iron and steel markets are in excellent condition"

STOPPED SUNDAY WORK
POLICE THOUGHT FORCE WAS
VIOLATING SUNDAY LAW.
Men Were Special Detail From Iron
Works Getting Boat Ready for Her
Mail Run.

Through a misunderstanding a num-
Der of men on the steamer Claudine
were ordered to stop working yester-
day. This order was given by Captain
of HarbOr Police Harry Flint at the
direction of High Sheriff Brown as the
men were at first thought to be violat-
ing the Sunday labor law.
President WIGHT of the Wilder Steam
ship company was very Indignant over
the matter and while no arrests We're
made he declared that if necessary he
would test the matter in the courts,
for the men were justified in working
on the vessel making necessary repairs.
An investigation into this claim was
made by the police authorities with the
result that the men were permitted to
return to work. 1t was not the regular
force of men belonging to the Clau-
dimes crew who were working on her,
but a special detail from the Honolulu
Iron Works. The work which they
were doing was discovered to be abso-
lutely necessary in order to get the
vessel repaired in time to go on her
regular run tomorrow. She has to
carry the United States mails so any
work which was being done to insure
her keeping the mail contract could not
be classed under the general law which
prohibits work being done on the Sab
bath The force was permitted to re-
turn in order that the vessel might be
got ready for sea duty.
