The lumber shipments from Mime
apolis for the past eight mon tbs
have reached Ia, OOO, 100 feet. This is
a little below last year. The first
four months of 1897 showed smaller
shipments than the same months OF
1895. but the following four months
of this year show wed larger shipments
than in 1896. The indications are
that the increase will continue for
the remaining four months of the
year, and the total will considerably
exceed last years record.
DULUTH, MINI Sept. 1.-There has
never been u time in years when the
cut OF lumber here was sold 40 close
to the saw and the stocks of logs SO
nearly exhausted. The prospects for
logging this winter are very good
and the amount cut will undOubted-
~ be the greatest in several years.
Some of the dealers believe that the
amount of unsOld lumber at the
close of naviga ton will not he more
than $4,000, 100 feet or whereabouts.
Last year at the close there was be-
tween l3O, OO0, 900 and, 100000, 900 on
hand. Some of the mills will prob
ably be closing down toward the
last of September. The Leisure mill
has been short of logs somewhat

hans will build a new mill on the
disputed site. The case has been
through several courts and Is due to

Jones was seen on the matter and
had this to say. He is willing to
compromise, provided the Meehans
will pay him a sufficient amount to
cover what the long litigation has
cost him, but unless they will do
this, he has already spent so much
that the additional amount neces-
sary to carry the matter before the

1t is very credibIy reported Tint
II c. Iroeger, the principal owner
of the Bonanza mine, will return
to Hillsboro very soon to resume
operations on tina, property, Since
his leaving Hillaboro the condi-

much improved, rates foi smelling

lower. Mr. Troeger has been thor.
oughly investigating the cyanide

at least as an auxiliary to his mill.
The extra saving of a few dollars
