Mining Inspector.

The Federated Trades Assembly of
Duluth held meeting last week and
considerable Of interest Was discussed
The matter that provoked more dis
cussion than any other was the Vail
bill providing for mine inspection in
this state. President Askew of the
Northern Mineral Mine Workers
union was present and asked the
assembly to endorse the bill which
WAS done with the exception of sec
tion OF the bill which President
Askew himself said would have to be
revised before the bill should be
enacted into law.
Section provides that if any men
are allowed TO continue work in any
place condemned by the mine inspec-
tor before the place has received the
necessary changes TO insure safety,
the person operating the mine shall
be liable for all such accidents caus-
ing injury or death.
Delegate Cobb held that this was
one of several bad or questionable
features Of the bill. He said there
could by this provision be 10 liability
for injury that may be caused a miner
until after the inspector has con-
demned the place and given notice
for the changes or repairs. In order
to recover any damages a party would
have to prove that the place had
been condemned: that the inspector
had given notice to the company re-
.quiring it to be repaired and then
and not till then could there be an
action for damages. Mr.. Cobb believ-
ed the bill was quite useless if not
worse than useless in so far as it
gives protection to mining employees.
There is another section also that
was referred to particularly. 1t is
provided that when ten employees of a
mine shall make a request in writing
for mine to be examined by the
inspector he shall Immediately re-
spond, etc. 1t was held by Mr.. Cobb
and others that no ten men would
dare to make such request for fear
they would lose their jobs.
President Askew assumed the re-
sponsibility of framing the bill, he
said he and other officers Of the mine
workers had gotten it up.

there was practically no business in
sight and no possibility of competing
with steel in any event. Moreover
the association has been innocuos for
some time as regulator OK prices,

strongest OF the pools may formally
announce open prices, though no such
action has been taken as yet Plates
are held more firmly by some Pittsburg

THE EVENT.
The Ball Given BY the Dramatic Club a
Success.

The Ball Given BY the Dramatic Club a
Success.
The masquerade ball given by the
Amateur Dramatic and Comedy com.
pany at the Turf hall Friday evening
was a success from both a social and
financial standpoint.
Long before $50 the hall was well
filled by the merry throng of maskers
and the characters represented em.
braced everything from clown to a
princess. There were flower girls,
popcorn maidens, school dansels and
all other characters imaginable ably
represented, and who glided through
the dizzy mazes on the arms OF
soldiers, sailors, Cinnamon, Jews.
Turks, CLOVIS and all other representa-.
tions that go to make up successful
masquerade.
The music was furnished by Messrs.
Sheridan. Polkinghorn and Lawrence
and it was successfully furnished.
The prompting was done by Mr.,
| Goldsworthy. who did his part in his
usual Al style. Everyone present
seemed to be having good time and
the festivities continued until :
O'Clock in the morning.
We will not attempt a description
of the costumes wore, but will suffice
it to say that all were faultlessly dis,
lection.
The ball netted the club something
like $50 which will help them material.
ly in getting ready for the coming
performance which in all probability
will take place on March II.

Mrs VIM. Bateman Passes Away After a
Long Illness.

Mrs. VIM. Bateman Passes Away After a
Long Illness.
Mrs. VIM. Bateman who has been
dangerously i'll for the past sixteen
months with heart disease followed
by dropsy, succumbed last Thursday
at noon at her home in this city.
Mrs. Bateman was born in Randall,
Westmoreland, England, in 1874 and
was So years Of age. In 1882 she came
to this country with her husband and
family. For number of years she
has resided at Tower and came TO Ely
soon after the town was first laid out.
Her husband and two children are
left to mourn her demise. VIM. Bate
man ST.. and Jr., and Mrs. VIM.
Hamm. of BeSsemer. Mich.
The remains were taken to Tower
for interrment, a large number of
friends Of the deceased escorting all
that was left of their departed friend
to the last resting place in Lakeside
cemetery. VIM. Phillips. Sam Smale,
Thomas Whitta. Jno. Cowling, Rich.
Chinn and Jos. Thomas acted as pail
bearers and Rev. Cook conducted the
services which took place in the Pres
byterian church at Tower.
Mrs. VIM. Bateman was a lady who
numbered among her friends every
one she came ia contact with, and
hosts of friends, both here and at
Tower, mourn her death. During
the long months of suffering she bore
her trials with fortitude and it was a
release to her when the grim reaper
came to claim his own.

The Chandler.

The Chandler mine is running along
at ACCOMPLISHMENTS gait and is
employing nearly 500 men. During
the month Of January 486 men were
employed. The mine now has 220. 900
tons on the stockpiles. The steam
shovel which has been thoroughlv
renovated and put to a use which
steam shovels as a usual thing are
unaquainted with. The drum is con-
nected with a set OF shelves running
an endless rope in the shape Of a loop
over the stockpile. On the tram cars
are arranged grips which fasten to
therope and convey cars to the dump
and back again on another track.
This is the first time anything in this
line has been attempted hereabouts.
The contriyance does away with con-
siderable manual tramming power,
and works satisfactorily. Horses were
formerly used but at a disadvantage
as the weather has seriously interfered
with work.

vided arbitrarily on the line of OF per
cent phosphorus, ores containing less
than that amount Of phos being grad
ed as Bessemers; those cotaining a
greater amount as nom BeSsemers. 1t
is possible, however, TO make Besse-
mer steel from ores containing q
slightly higher percentage of phos-
phorus than seven-tenths of l per
cent, the official dividing line. 1t is
also possible to blend several ores,
some of Bessemer and some of nom
Bessemer grades, into Bessemer
mixture. For instance, one of the
largest mines in the Mesaba district,
which mines its ores with steam
shoyels, averaged about .0S phos last
year, or one-tenth OF per cent above
the line There is in this district
the Marquette range-a mine that
can turn out cargo after cargo OF ore
that will run as low as .02 in phos-
phorus. By adding one ton of .02 ore
to five tons of the 0S Mesaba nom
Bessemer, a six-ten mixture is secured
that averages exactly .07, and will
easily turn out Bessemer pig. Not
only this, but the local property
referred 10 as producing low-phes-
phorus ore is what is known as high
silica property and carries about ~
per cent metallic iron only, which lets
it out of the Bessemer ore pool, and
its ores sell at So. 10 to 1925 per ton,
delivered at Lake Erie ports, or al
most exactly half what standard Bes-
semer ores commanded last year
Furthermore, this high-silica low
phosphorus ore is exactly what the
Mesaba ores need to go with them.
Its physical character helps to prevent
in furnace, which hap
pens where the fine-grained Mesaba
ore is exclusively used; the silica is a
decided gain to the Mesaba ores. and
the small amount of phosphorus is
the third of the three ESSENTIALS re-
quired of an ore to mix with Mesaba
nom Bessemers for Bessemer pig.
These few facts were overlooked by
the producers of Bessemer ores a year
ago, but they were by no means
passed over by the big concerns which
are both miners and manufacturers
The shrewd ironmongers have been
making Bessemer iron out of ore that
by the terms of the agreement was
not included in the pool. They have
lived up to the letter of their agree
ment. but have eyaded adherence to
the spirit. Just what to DO with
them, especially the Carnegie inter-
ests, is the problem that producers of
ore are finding it very hard to solve at
present. The big concerns that own
both mines and mills have their foot
in the door. and so far this year the
mining concerns that have no mills
have found it impossible to get their
quondam allies either in or out.
The iron ore pool may go to pieces
or it may be patched up for another
years duty: meanwhile every argu-
ment and pressure is being brought
to bear by the big consumers to have
the pool smashed completely, or else
formed anew upon the same lines as
last year. The Carnegie crowd has
one of the old darkey's patent traps.

Won the $500 Gold Prize.

Mr.. w. H. Wester, who is both
merchant and farmer, tells us the
GOLD LEAF was only correct in part
last week in saying that to Blount
Solomon, colored, was due the credit
for bringing in the first bale of new
cotton (on Tuesday 7th). Our friend
says he it was who sold the first bale
getting the $500 gold piece offered
therefor by the Henderson Cotton
Mills. Mr.. D. Y. Cooper was the
buyer. the cotton being purchased for
the mills.
The facts are these: Solomon brought
in bale in the seed that morning, but
it appears that those he depended on
were too slow for 'possums and not fast
enough for "coons,' hence 'tother fell
low got ahead of him. knowing a
good thing when he sees it Mr. Wester
carried his cotton to Ollie Powell's
gin, got prompt service and had bale
on market that afternoon, winning the
prize as above stated.
