trade is mere demoralized than 1t has
ever been here, and standard sizes of
anthracite are selling at $3.50 ton,
delivered to any part of the city. All
tho companies are said to be in the
fight, and the quantity of coal sold is
something astonishing. The fight may
be over any day. Coal receipts for
both Duluth and Superior for the sea-
son to date have been 100000 tons,
nearly 100000 tons less than they were
at the same date year ago. 1t Is ex-
pected that total receipts for the year
will amount to about 1,750,O00 tons.

The advance in coal freights to 80
cents ton and the small buying by
the railroads are the causes of the
decrease.

ment and bitter feeling at their highest
pitch. The greatest surprise Of the
day was the good order everywhere.
There were some personal encounters,
but not as many as usual at closely con-
tested elections. There was, however,
great precaution to prevent trouble.
Old friends and neighbors have been
having their inning, and they wanted
only the voting now. II the Breckin-
ridge men had enforced their challenge
strictly, as they. had expected, there
would have been trouble. So closely
had the canvassing and polling been
done, that the challengers knew how
almost all the Democrats stood, and
they could have prevented many from
voting. It was generally understood
that the Republican managers IA
yored Breckenridge, and they thought
In the event of his nomination their
candidate would not be hopeless. Very
few Republicans, however, voted.
Lexington, KY, Sept 18.-There is
nothing definite in the way of returns.
The Owens men claim the election OF
Owens by 410 plurality, while the
Breckenridge men claim his plurality is
only 169. 1t is believed by many well
posted Owens men that Breckinridge
will contest the election, but he de-
clines to talk for publication. The Of
ficial count will be held tomorrow, and
as a majority of the election committee
favors Breckenridge 1t is expected that
advantage will be taken Of every con
tested vote to seat the colonel
