The    new    concentrator    is    to    be  erected   at  the   Bowena Copper  Company's mines on Bowen Island, for Mr.  YV. Tipping, who has leased the mine  from   the   Bowena   Company   and   Intends to operate it.    The concentrator  is to be of 100 tons daily capacity, and  the chief feature of it is the fact that  tbe ore concentrates are to be handled  by the medium of salt water flotation  instead  of by the  oil  process, as  has  been used hitherto.    It is claimed for  ; the    new    process,    after   exhaustive  ! tests,   that   salt   water,   besides   being  | more  economical,   foams   better  than  'oil   in   the   process   and   thereby  aids  i in better recovery of the concentrates.  I     T. A. Walsh &- Co. are to erect the  i concentrator   and   turn   it   over   com  iplete to Mr. Tipping, ready to operate  j The  machinery  of  the   plant   will  ar  rive next month from the east.

M.  Standifer Construction Corporation in  Portland Thursday to stop work on  five 9,500-ton steel vessels now under  construction for the government. It  is expected that work will be ordered  continued on some of the vessels  when the amount of material on hand  is reported.  Contracts for seven more steel ships  to be built at San Francisco have been  cancelled by the U. S. shipping board.  I This makes  13 ship contracts rescinded in the paast two days. ,,'  j    The total contract price of the thir-  i teen vessels   was   approximately $27,-  ; 000,000.   The Moore Shipbuilding Com-  : pany hold contracts for seven and the  Union Iron Works for six of the ships,  j This   action   brings   the   total   loss  of  j steel ship contracts in California yards  during  the  last  few  weeks  to   forty-  [nine  vessels,  with  the total value of [try  tthe contracts placed at $77,000,000.  more put this coast on a nearly equal  footing with rival ports in the east.  Several weeks ago the shipping  board announced a rate of £20 per ton  on freight from Atlantic ports to the  Orient, which was much lower than  that from Pacific; coast. ports. With  rates, from Seattle at $2o and $30 per  ton, /competition with the east was  out of the question on account of the  high transcontinental freight rates.  A committee representing, the lines  operating vessels out of Pacific ports  to tlie Orient has practically decided  to quote a rate of $15 per ton, it is  understood, and the action of the shipping board may bring about a further  cut.

Mild f  spring-like  weather   has   made  it  extremely difficult for merchants to get  rid   6_   heavy   winter   and   fall   merchandise.     Sales   of   such   are   very  slow   and   made   only    at    sacrifices.  Sorting orders are slow and orders for  fall   are   few.    This   week   saw  a, renewal   of  life  in   the  cattle  industry,  and  prices  advanced  nearly a dollar  per hundred pounds.    Many shipments  of "choice   beef   were    made    to    the  [United States.   The grain trade is de-  i pressed,  there  being  absolutely _.<_t__-  I ing- "moving.      Stocks   of   flour   and  ! grain  products  in  store are the  hea-  ■ viest in years.    The hide and leather  \ markets are quiet, but prices are firm.  j Butter and eggs are declining.  j MONTREAL.—There is a more  | timistic feeling in trade, especially  ! in export business, which has been encouraged by more freight space offering, and also by a considerable reduction in freight rates. In dry goods,  orders from travelers are reported  coming'in well. The long looked for  decline in the high cost of living is  beginning to show itself, all lines of  meats and eggs having ^declined, but  lijbttet l remains_Jrirm.:w«_)5&U§§fil.e-. grocery Jiouses  have   reduced   molasses  and rice, and there has been a decline  in the price of winter-wheat flour.  Iron and steel industries are busy on  government orders and have refused  some large orders for, European account. Landlords report a big demand  for houses, apartments and flats, and  all have advanced rentals, owing to  increased taxation and high cost of  repairs. Retail trade has been busy  and collections are good.  -   WINNIPEG-  trade  continues  rather quiet,  Wholesale   and   retail  dealers  and the public alike buying only for  immediate requirements.

When you have half an hour to spare,  instead of smoking another cigar that  you don't need, sit down and write a  few personal letters to customers, who  seem to have forgotten your business.  Customers are more independent  than they used to be. Don't count on  getting their trade regularly without,  keeping after it.  Don't let the talkative customer do  all the.talking, and don't talk so much,  that the shyer customer will no', feel  :. °Z'   like butting in ^with any remark.
