lay Expected on Hilo Project.

Suspend operations temporarily. In.
structions on the way This is the
tenor of a message received by E. j.
Lord, manager of the Hilo breakwater,
yesterday. 1t came from the Break
water Company of Philadelphia follow.
ing the announcement that the big cor
poratiOn had gone into the hands of a
receiver, -, l.
Operations on the big contract at
the Crescent City will accordingly be
stopped, but those in a position to
know feel confident that the delay will
be only temporary, and that receipt of
further instructions will show that. ar,
rangements have been made to carry
the contractto completion. ,.....
The news came as a surprise IN that
arrangements had only recently been
completed to carry the work through "
a speedy end. EtEa - -
Though the contract probably has
been heavy drain on the company, il
is not thought that it is in posi-.
tion to drop it before completion. The
plant now being used on the contract
is estimated to have cost $l50,000. Be
sides this, the company has security
company bond in the sum of 1925, 900.
Some time ago the Breakwater com
'pany ioated bonds TO the amount of
$l,000,0O0. These were underwritten by

thought probable here that this organ,
