Years
Gross Tons.
Makine a grand total of. !.

MdklDS STduQ LOlcl .Ih, toA,V@o
During this season there were 1888 YES
sci arrivals at the ore docks, an in
crease of 123 over the year 1900. The
largest cargo of the season was taken out
by the schooner Manila on Sept. rs, con-
sisting of 7,473 gross tons of ore: The
average cargo for the entire season was
1925 gross tons, over 440 tons in excess
of the average for the year 1900.
The shipment of lumber from this port
during the past season has been very
heavy, between 100000 and 35,000,000
feet having been loaded onto boats con-
signed to Eastern ports. Of lumber alone
there were fifty-one complete cargoes.
Lumber, Pulpwood and Logs.
Between u, 900 and 5000 cords of spruce
pulpwood was shipped from here to the
Hammerville Paper company, of Erie,
Pa This wood was gotten out during
the winter of 1900 and 1901, on the line of
the d. & I. r. by the firm of Colvin &
Robb, of Biwabik, MINI. Unless present
plans fail to materialiZe, the above firm
will get out a much larger quantity dur
ing the coming winter than they did last
season Floating tracks are now being
laid in the yard at Two Harbors to IA
cilitate the unloading and piling of the
wood at this point in place convenient
for transferring onto the dock for load
ing onto vessels.
There is a large quantity of spruce in
this section of the country, and the price
Of this commodity has advanced very
materially during the past few years, so
that many claims from which the pine
has been removed and which have been
considered almost worthless are now
quite valuable for the spruce timber
standing thereon
The business of transporting logs by
rail, which was not thought to be prac-
ticable or economical until recent years,
has increased with great rapidity on the
Duluth & Iron Range railroad during
the last four years, and during the win
tiers of 1900 and 1901 this company deliv-
cred to the various mills in Duluth about
70,GQagQQ feet of logs, in addition to those
hauled from Knife river to Duluth for
Alger. Smith & Co.
From present indications the logging
business for the coming winter Will be
much heavier than at any time previous.
There is now in sight about 100000 feet
to be taken from points north of Two
Harbors to Duluth. In addition to the
above amount Alger, Smith & co. ex-
peet to ship to Duluth for saving at
their mill on Rice's point a greater guam
tity of logs than they have shipped dur
ing any previous winter. They are now
delivering to the Duluth & Iron Range
at Knife river two trains of logs per
day. and within short time expect to
denver four trains per day. ~
This logging business on the Duluth &
Iron Range railroad is of considerable
Importance to Two Harbors, as it fur
nishes work for large number Of train
out of employment in this locality from
the close of the ore season in the fall
until the opening of navigation the fol-
lowing spring.
