terprise from delegates Wilson and

The dispatch further declares that
the statement sent broadcast from
Washington that the president has
come into line for statehood for Okla
homa and Indian Territory, New Mex
leo and Arizona is absolutely false.

TRADE IN IRON IMPROVES.

Lively Buying at Advanced Prices Con-
tinues.
New York, March 17.-Further i'm
proVement in the Iron Trade is not
ed by the Iron Age, in it's issue of
today. The demand from railroads,
however, has not yet increased in pro-
portion with the increase IN other
quarters. The Review says:
The better feeling in iron trade
continues. 1t has found expression
thus far in a liyelier buying of pig
iron in all quarters at moderate ad-
vance in many instances. The major
ity of sellers have marked up their
asking prices and it remains to be
seen whether or not this will check
buying now that the urgent require
ments for delivery during the second
quarter appear to be covered.

Norwegians Tell Of Damage By
Last Bombardment.
ALExIEFF DENIES STORY OF FIRE

Russians Claim Little Domase Was
Done-Rassian Torpedo Boat De-
stroyer Struck Upon an Unplaced
Mine and Was Blown Up.
New York, March 17.-Three Nor
wegian steamers, the Brand, Argo and
Seirestad, released a few days ago
by the authorities at Port Arthur,
have arrived at Shanghai, according
to World dispatch from that city.
The crews who were put under oath
by the Russians to reveal nothing they
saw, refuse to speak of affairs at Port
Arthur, but the correspondent asserts
that some members told what they
knew. During the last bombardment
last Sunday the Argo lay alongside
the battleship Retvizan in the harbor,
and one of the Norwegian's confirmed
previous reports to the effect that
Japanese shell fell on the Retvizan's
deck, where it exploded, killing 19
officers and men.
Scarcely a resi- lent in the new part
Of town escaped damage. Many of
the inhabitants attempted to con-
struct rude bomb-pro0f shelters. One
shell fell among crowd of sight-seers
who gathered at point of vantage,
and were gazing out to sea at the at
tacking fleet. The shell killed %.
The government clerks were killed
while hurrying from the port admir-
ais office
A cruiser lying at anchor ca
ble's length from the Retv1zan proba-
bly, the Diana, was struck on the wa
ter line and set on fire. The sail
ors declare that 80 persons on board
perished
The supply of food in Port Arthur
is still sufficient for the needs of the
garrison, but it is entirely under the
control of the military authorities,
who issue daily ratiOns.
The NorWegians insist that when
they left, the Russian fleet had sailed
with the view of making a dash for
Vladivostock
1t is probable however, that the YES
sells had merely gone on another
scouting expedition. There remained
in the harbor beside the disabled war
ships only the volunteer feet steam
er Kasan, four smaller Russian mer-
chantmen, one whaler and the Rus
sian hospital ship, Mongolia, which
had been struck by shells, killing half
a dozen men.
