Iron Aue Review.

New York October 23-The Iron Age tomorrow will say:
 The suspension of three of the group of Westinghouse interests is not reassur- ing, but it must be observed that the iron and metal industries have passed through a period of great prosperity and are stronger than they ever were in the his- tory of this country. Extensions and en- largements have been conseryatively made, with ample funds provided In few conspicuous instances new construc- ton was suspended sometime since.
 Prices for finished iron and steel have been kept at moderate level. and while they will probably. be adjusted to a less ened consumption. as the occasion arises, there is no prospect of any such perform ances as we have witnessed in copper, tn and pig iron markets.

and caused story to be circulated
to the effect that she had stolen mer-
chandise from his store. She states
that these reports were false and that

succeeded. She states that 1t is be-
cause of this lowering standing, and
because of the shame, chargin and
