WORK STOPPED ON EXTENSIONS Conditions Bad for the

 sf Manufaeturers,

Market conditions the past thirty days. with especial reference to the last two~weeks, was the theme of discussion Florida Lumber Manufacturers Asso- ciation, which held an important con ference at the New Exchange Hotel yesterday morning and afternoon.
 The members in attendance at the meeting told of their personal ex- periences during the financial troubles which have swept over the entire coun- try during the past few weeks.
 Discussions of the stoppage of exten. sion work in many branches of indus tries were prominent in the afternoon session. Its result was also discussed with regard to the future
 The meeting of the delegates was called to order yesterday morning in the pariors of the New Exchange by President James c. Williams. of Flea nor. Fla, and topics of especial inter- est and importance were. immediately introduced.
 The first of these topics was the pres- ent market conditions. Several of the delegates said they had no more than two or three weeks business in hand, and there seemed to be no prospect of Ia great quantity of business in the im- mediate future.
 This lack of business was thought to be due, without doubt. to the recent financial disturbances. and also to the fact more lumber was being made than the market could absorb.
 No especial improvement was looked for during the remainder of the year, and 1t was the concensus of opinion that the situation would not improve until the production of lumber was re- duced to a point in keeping with the present demand.
 The financial disturbances of the past few weeks resultedSin the stoppage of exten sion works J6n the railroads and other lines of business and of post ponfng plans for any great future work This stoppags of work. of extension, together with the over-production of lumber by the manufacturer. had the effect of reducing the demand of the luipberman to a minimum.
 While the question was not discussed in the meeting 1t was learned that a great number of lumber mills had re- duced their output or had shut down entirely This was said to be true more especially of the smaller opera tors.
 The meeting of yesterday selected delegates to the meeting of the Yellow Pine Manufacturers Association which is to meet in Memphis on Thursday. These delegates are:
