N EW MILL DELAYED.
Large Single Mill at HOquiam Wait
ina for r1aChiOerV,

HooUIAM, March 27,-Work on the
new shingle mill being built in this city
by A. f. Coates, 3. Johnson and jesse
Lewis has been discontinued for the time
being, owing to the delay in the arrival
OF the machinery which should have ar
rived several weeks ago.
The construction of this large plant
was rushed in order that the mill would
be cutting shingles by June l, but it is
very doubtful whether it can be com.
pleted before the middle of July.
This new mill when completed will be
one OF the most up-to-date and modern
mills on the harbor. The capacity will
be 100000 shingles per ten hours, but it
is the intention OF the stockholders to
incre 'se the output as coon as the de.
mand warrants.

HITCHCOCK SAYS
 cHARGHT FALSE
PosToFFIcE OFFICIAL COMES TO CORTELYOU'S RESCUE BY A STATEMENT REGARDING PoLIT- ICAL MATTERS.

Washington, December 1S-A brief, but important contribution to current politics was made this evening by Frank H. Hitchcock, first assistant postmaster gen eral.
 In breaking the silence he has main- tained for several weeks, respecting statements concerning him that have heen made rom time to time Mir. Hitch cock says the statement of Secretary Cor telyou, published today, disposed of the charge that he has in any manner been disloyal to President Roosevelt. He says that such charge is absolutely false and the President knows it to be, having told him so. MT. Hitchcock's state- ment follows:
 VI have read Secretary Cortelyou's statements, published in the morning pa pers. 1 am sure that the public will accept it as a truthful declaration of a thoroughly sincere man. It disposes of the charge that have been in any manner disloyal to the President. That charge is absolutely false, in fact, the President has told me he knows it to be false.
 q do not care to discuss tn matter further. I should not say even this were 1t not for the apprehension that some people who are unfamiliar with the facts may be misled by the statements circI- lated"

Iron Age Review.

New York, December 1S.-The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
 New business is light, and in the fin ished trades does not probably amount to more than one-third of capacity with the prospect that in view of the holidays the average for the whole of the month may even fall below that. No real inn provement can very well be expected until after the opening of the year. Some of the large steel industries notesthat col lections are better, and this is followed by more freedom in accepting specified tions.
 What developments there have been in the leading distributing markets for mer- chant pig iron are rather adverse since lower figures have been made. This is true of foundry irons, both in the cen tral west and in the south.
 The Erie railroad, which placed about 25,000 tons of steel rails last week with the leading interests, has reserved space for like amount with another mill. It Is probable that before long number of the leading railroads will put out their 1908 orders.
 Coke continues weak, standard Con- nellsville having been offered at $2 per ton at oven for prompt delivery and g .15 on contract.
 The week has brought some fresh low records for the metals.
 Tin has sold under 26c. Lead has gone down to 31sc, New York, and spelter down to 4.20c, New York.
 Just what transactions are passing in copper are being very carefully guarded. Electrolytic copper has sold down to 12stc

IRON TRADE WILL SLACK UP SHARPLY Very Little Business Is Ahead
 for the Holidays NEXT YEAR WILL BE BETTER Trade Is Waiting For the Final Ac- ceptance of New Steel Rail Speci-
 fications-MiIIs Are Making
 Better Collections.
NEXT YEAR WILL BE BETTER

Cleveland, December l8.-(Special) 1.-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:
 In striking contrast with the great ac- tivity of mills during last years holiday season, there will be a general suspen- sion of operations shortly before Christ mas, and the time for resumption will de- pend largely upon the demand for fin- ished products and the financial condi- tion prevailing after the first of the new year.
 The long expected announcement of new specifications on Bessemer has been made. These specifications have not been form ally adopted by the American Railway association, but are the result, to large extent, of the work of the special commit tees appointed some months ago repre- senting both the railway association and the steel makers. Clauses relating to the drop tests finishing and shrinkage were inserted in accordance with the request of the railroads A sliding scale Of prices Is based on BPS at tha mill for per cent discard from the ingot with 29 cents per gross ton advance for eacn additional 1 per cent discard As the usual mill :iis- card Is now from ? n 10 Der cent the price, except when additional discard is made, remains as It nas been since May, 1901
