The Engineering and Mining
Journal in its review Of the iron
ore business Of last week says:
There has been n big but quiet
scramble for ore during tho past
week or ten days, and the result
is that ii is estimated that from
i3,000,00 to Ia, 900, 600 tons have
already been contracted for. Not
until the latter part of last week
did the sales agents of the old
range Bessemer ores agree ON
prices, but when the agreement
was made there were some largo
transactions closed in q remark

From the Virginia Enterprise
we learn that the Great Northern
railroad company has purchased
the Wright & Davis interests in
the railroads and mines OF the
Mesabi range. The Wright y
Davis road was much talked about
last year when the Mahoning
mine was sold and speculation
was ripe as to a competing rail
road tapping the range and .ow-
ering the freight rates. The
last move OF the Great Northern
people is being watched with
interest by the people of the
Mesabi range.
A force OF about fifty men are
now employed at the Auburn,

atoms. II is the expectation thai
200 men will be employed at this

FROM THE MINES


A representative of tins paper
visited the Columb ia mine last
Wednesday and found that many
changes have been made since
our last visit there four months
ago. Supt. Dyer kindly took US
in tow and showed us around
both on surface and under
ground. The large marine boil
or. described in these columns
some time ago, is at work and
furnishes all the steam used FOR
hosting. pumping and air com
pressing; doing the work that
four boilers formerly did. a
little steam is kept up in one OF
the old boilers to supply the dry
and Office. k-r. Dyer informed US
that he has kept close account
of the fuel used with the old and
the new boilers finds an average
saving of four tons Of coal per
day with the new one. This
is no small item in these
days Of low mining costs.
There is no feed water TO be
had at this mine other than
that pumped from the mine itself
and this water contains q large
percentage of iron ore sediment
When using the old boilers, this
sediment settled above the fire
and on the hues. The boilers
were cleaned often but il formed
SO rapidly that much heat was
wasted in penetrating this scale.
All this is obviated in the new
boiler. The furnace being with
lin the boiler itself the sediment
settles below the fire and there
is nothing TO be heated but the
shell OF the furnace itself. This
type Of boiler is admirably
adaptedto the needs of any mine
circumstanced as is the Colum
bia.
The first thing that attracted
our attention when we reached
the 9th level was the big Pres
colt pump, a description Of which
we gave some time ago. /
works admirably and has ca
pacity sufficient TO handle all th'
water made by the mine with eas'
for years to come. A rock tunne
230 feet long separates the shat
from the ore body. This long tran
induced Mr.. Dyer to substitute
two ton cars for the smaller onel
formerly used. He also arranged
IL series Of switches at the station
They are very ingeniousl,
contrived and the skip tender
by simply moving q lever, ca
turn the cars TO either side Q
the station.
We passed through the tunnc

winning the ore is being change
this year. Heretofore the level
have been caved forty or fit
feet at q drop. The ore break
in large chunks and the waite
washes the sand ahead, thu
preventing much Of the ore cave
from being obtained. 1t is PR

TO crush the ore finer. 7
