A DAILY HINT FROM PARIS. The Secretary s t a t e s in his report that the company accepted a contract [From the European Edition of the Herald.] Bethlehem from the Russian government to furnish nickel steel armor, Harveyized, for $249 per ton, subsequently raising this price to $520.70 per ton. T h e Secretary intimates that there Is a t least a friendly understanding or agreement among the principal armor manufacturers of t h e world that prices shall be maintained a t or about the s a m e level. The Secretary h a s g r a v e doubts that the manufacturers wild be willing to manufacture a t the price at which h e considers fair and equitable, and in case they should refuse to accept contracts within a limit of cost Congress m a y fix on the basis of his figures, he suggests that that body give him power to erect or buy a n armor ana gun plant. H e estimates that t h e cost of such a plant would be about $1,500,000, and gives figures a s to the cost of plants abroad to show that this estimate is reasonable.
