Chihiro,

Frank and I used your data to check the program and example with an
independent
algorithm and implementation (Westfall-Young stepdown resampling
procedure). Theory suggests that the
results should be similar to (but not necessarily the same as) those
obtained with multcomp in this special case. These are the adjusted
p-values obtained with the Westfall-Young approach for 100,000
replications:

0.0437
0.0260
0.0204
0.0001

which fit nicely with the ones obtained from multcomp.

Hope this helps & sorry for the delay,

Torsten
