Equipment Orders.

Officials of two of the most repres-
entative concerns of the country to
LAY consented to discuss reports
which have been frequently heard OF
hate 10 the effect that there had been
not a few cancellations Of orders for
railroad equipment and that other
large cancellations were intended.
One of these men said: There has
been no suggestion In our correspoh-
dence or negotiations with customers
of cancellations of orders on an un'
usual scale. The situation with lis Is
we can't get cars out fast enough to
meet the demands Of the railroads.
Orders on our hooks will tax the capa'
city of our plants for a considerable
time In the future. ami a great many
new orders are under consideration.
The fact is that when a railroad buys
cars It either has the money on hand
or makes arrangements with bankers
to provide the money before the n
tract Is fully closed, Therefore. 1t
can not readily cancel It's orders for
equipment. The remarks Of a repres-
entative of another very large on
Germ describe the situation in prac-
tically the same manner Concerning
the report that the Gould lines recent
ly Cancelled orders for 1900 cars and
100 locomotives, a Gould representa-
tive today said that the rumor was Tar
from correct and gave a misleading
impression. The fact vas he said.
that orders calling for $4,000 cars and
200 locomotives had been reduced on
a reestimate by 1000 cars and 40
locomotives.

CUBAN CENSUS VERY SLOW.
May Put Of Elections to April OF
May-Lots Of Voters Anyway.

Havana. Dec. 24.-Despite the opti-
niistic predictions regarding the census
it is not likely that it will be completed
before three or four months. This will
bring the elections in April or May
very much later than is desired by the
politicians.
When Secretary Taft was here last
April he outlined a program involving
the taking of the census, after which
was then said that the taking Of the
census would occupy four or five
months. Already eight months have
gone since the taking Of the census
commenced.
The enumerators have finished their
municipalities and barrios are now be-
ing tabulated in Havana. These will
be returned when completed to the To-
cal election boards and publicly posted.
so az to give electors an opportunity to
voice objections if they wish. Then the
returns will be sent back to Havana
and made up into registration lists,
which will govern the elections.
Considerable anxiety exists regarding
the proportion of voters to the popula-
ton. The present indications are that
it will be one to four. which is enor-
nous, considering that 100000 foreigners
in the island are disqualified from vot-
ing At meeting of the Mason:s Union
it was decided to continue the strike.

The KennebeC
Is Still Open

Gardiner. M, Dec. 24.-The kenne-
bee river is as open as in summer. Last
year it closed Dec. IS and a few days
later the weather was SO severe that
ice crews abandoned their work The
capacity of the American Ice Co, on
the Kennebec river and at Boothbay
and Bristol is 100000 tons. There is
now in storage 100000 tons, not more
than $4,000 having been shipped last
summer. The capacity of this company
on the Penobscot river is $4,000 and
practically none was shipped this year.
The company proposes to harvest ice
in Maine if needed, but much depends
upon the season and particularly upon
conditions later, on the Hudson river,
which really regulates the ice crop in
Eastern states. February is the best
harvesting month here.
