that Dewey’s health, ao far as is, could
be gauged from his ‘appearance, seems
to be about the same as it has been for

‘+ NO INCREASE IN DIVIDENDS,
: Will there be any increase in War

““Theré willbe no increase in War

Blackstock’s reply, bi
, Mr. Blacketock further stated that:the
Centre Star might join the War Eagle
in shipping, da the company had se-
cured a.reduction of $1 per ton smelting
rates. Otherwise they would remain
separate.’ Centre Star will not be floated
before the.fall of the year.
