Interests Combining to Make Duluth the
Manufacturing Center.
DULUTH, Oct. ga deal to make
Duluth the leading iron and steel center
Of the country is on and the papers will
be signed as soon as the Eastern men
who are back of the scheme can get
here. The project is one Of the biggest
ever undertaken at the head of the lakes
and is being engineered by combina-
ton consisting of the Minnesota Canal
company, the Altamonte Water COM
pany and the Jay Cooke interests. The
Cooke interests along the st. Louis
river are tremendous, and three years
ago an offer of $1,000, 900 was refused
by the owners of the property.
The consummation of the big deal
now on means the improvement of the
water power, by which electricity will
be generated and used in the production
of iron. This will enable the the iron
men here to smelt all of their own ore,
which, up to the present time, they
have been unable to do on account of
the great cost.

Holmes, who had introduced Pietzel to
the insurance agents when the latter
was insured, was induced by them to
come to Philadelphia and identify the
body This he did positively. and so
did Alice .Pietzel, the l6-year-old
daughter Of the dead man. With this
uneQuivocal testimony, the insurance
company paid the money. Here the
first stage of this extraordinary affair
came to close.
The second opened some time after
wards in manner smacking strongly
of the dime novel. Marion G. Heds-

that Holmes, while III an adjoin-
