d. M e. M. Railroad.

An arrangement has been perfected
between the D., NJ. and NJ. r. r. Co, and
the Peninsula iron company, through
its agent Mr.. Burt, which settles the con-
troversy between the two companies
with reference to the right of way of the
railroad company. After mature delibera-
tion the railroad company has concluded
to run its road on the lake shore side
of the Carp furnace and thereby avoid
all possible litigation. If the matter
were litigated, settlement could not be
arrived at in a much shorter period than
a year. The road will run as close to
the furnace as will be convenient, thence
south on the lake shore side of the cOun-
ty road. AS consequence, all the grad
ing and blasting that has been done
during the past month goes for naught.
The road will not run through the point
of rock, as was at first intended, but will
90 on the lake shore side. Apreliminary
meeting of the common council was held
Thursday night, and it was agreed to
run the county road through the rock
and allow the railroad the use of the
present county road. Chief Engineer
McEOwen informs us that work will be
recommended i'm few days and pushed
forward rapidly.-Marquette Mining

To the Editor or the NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
Under the caption of good hauling we
noticed an attempt to immOrtalize the
names of a whole crew. and to hand
down to posterity the full details of a
daring deed and the plain but honest
names of all who participated therein.
Let it not be said that the practical and
experienced lumberman Of ChebOygan
endorse the opinion that fOrty-six trips
a week is good work on mile and a
half haul, although it probably looks
large to men accustomed to the plOw.
We know of several crews who have done
work which casts this good hauling en-
tirely into the shade, the only instance
of which we have full statistics is in the
case of camp number seven, operating
on Thompson Smiths limits, under the
management of William McGurn. The
weeks work of which we now speak is
considered to be only an ordinary one in
every respect here. The previous weekly
reports having been dispatched to the
head Office, the report for the week end
ing on the 21st of February was the only
report of which full details remained in
camp. Eight teams are drawing on a
six mile haul, making two and a half
trips daily, which makes one hundred
and twenty loads every week. The
amount in feet hauled during the week
i'm question is 443,93O feet, Scribner's
rule; the loads averaging a trifle over
3,699 feet. The best days work during
the week scaled 81,576 feet, in twenty
loads, averaging 4,O78 feet per load. The
largest load which we noticed in the de-
tails of the report consisted of ten logs
and scaled 6,223 feet. This was not a
picked load, nor were any preliminary
arrangements made more than the Ordi-
nary routine of loading calls for, nor
was it the intention of any person work.
ing i'm this camp to send for publication
the statistics of a weeks work which is
not considered by the foreman or leaders
of this camp to be above fair average
work, but when the figures under the
caption good hauling came under our
notice, which statistics by the way so
much resemble the pay roll of railway
gang, it became quite plain that the rep
utatiOn of ChebOygan lumbermen would
Enthusiastically suffer if the figures of
such absurdly small work should be al

Navigation Notes.

1t is officially announced that the
Cleveland and Detroit line of steamers
will commence running, regularly next
Wednesday, weather permitting. If this
is done it will be the earliest commence
ment of navigation by this line in seven
teen years.
Captain E. M. Peck cOntemplates run
ming the steamer Flora between Milwau-
kee and Grand Haven and Muskegon.
She will be commanded by Captain Kir-
by, father of Mrs. ]. N. Riley of this vii
lage, who formerly commanded the Min
neapOlis. Captain Frazier, late of the
Amazon, succeeds to the Minneapolis.
The Bay City Tribune says the tug
Peter Smith, with Capt. P. C. Smith in
command, left her dock in the first ward
Thursday afternoon of last week for
Tawas. No ice was met until before
reaching Pine river. Then it cOmmenc-
ed to show up and by the time AuGres
was reached they were sailing in sea
of ice eight or more feet deep, all crushed
together. Seeing that it was useless to
go further the Smith was turned in the
direction of the Saginaw river.
A special telegram to the Inter-O Ocean
from Cleveland, Ohio, dated Feb. 26th,
says: "There begins to be very lively
movement in marine circles, and old
salts open their eyes in astOnishment at
the continuance of winter navigation
on Lake Erie. Tonight the schOOners
A. H. Moss and MOnguagOn were tOwed

Northern Michigan is sure to become
