WASHINGTON, March 28.-It is said at
the state department., regarding the
story that Great Britain has apologized
to this government for the action Of the
censor in opening letters addressed to
the United States consul at Pretoria,
that the United States has made no de-
mand upon the British government for
an apology, as the officials say that Mr..
Macrum, who was consul at Pretoria
when the mail is said to have been
opened, made no official complaints on
that subject, and thus the state depart
ment had nothing official before it to
serve as a basis for a demand for an
apology.

the cause of death of NJ. Peterson
the finding of whose body was re-
ported in The Enterprise last week.
The case was adjourned till We'd
nesday and again until today, that
more evidence bearing upon the
matter might be secured.
Peterson was evidently a man OF
some means, and it is rumored he
had a bunch of several hundred dol
lars on his person shortly before
his disappearance, and Coroner
Prince desires to esta blish the truth
or falsity of this report.
The jury Wednesday visited the
place where the body was picked
up, and short distance from the
spot picked up an empty purse. The
position of the body would also aid
the belief that the man was murder
ed and carried to the place where
found.

EXPECTS SEVENTY GENT ORE RATE

Although there has been no meet
ing of the eastern representatives
of ore producing companies to dis
cuss the matter, says the Herald, it
is generally conceded that next
years lake ore rate will neither be
SO high as the rate this season nor
so low as the rate lastyear. A prom
inent mine owner and shipper who
has been in the city for the past few
days says that in his opinion the
rate for next season will be seventy
cents, but that there is one contract
between Carnegie and Rockefeller
for 30 cents, with unloading charges
paid, that will mean practically Y
cent rote in this one instance. With
the ore shipping season rapidly
drawing to close this gentleman
says that the seasons ore business
has been very satisfactory for all
the mines on the range, and that he
looks for an equally good season
next year.

DROP THEIR OPTIONS.

1t is announced that the Chandler
Iron company has dropped it's op-
ton for lease of the McHale prop
erty, four miles east of Hibbing in
section %. Explorations have been
in progress by the company under
the direction of Capt. John Pengilly
for year. A large body of high
grade ore has been shown up and
general surprise is expressed at the
failure of the Chandler to close the
lease.
The option on the McHale prop
erty was obtained by O. D. Kinney
and Geo. Howe of Duluth, on a bas-
is of 20 cents per ton royalty. They
optioned the lease to the Chandler
Iron company, the terms being a
bonus of $4,000 in case the com
pany closed the lease.
About the same time that the op-
ton for McHale lease fell through
the Minnesota Iron company allow
ed it's second option on the Wallace
property near Mesaba station, on
the main line of the Duluth & Iron
Range, expire. Thisis the property
the discovery of which created E
sensation last spring and which has
led to continued explorations on the
eastern Mesaba, in which George
w. Wallace, D. H. Moon, Senator
Hawkins and ]. G. Vivian are inter
ested and on which an enormous
deposit of ore has been proven.
