mysterious mail robbery occurred here
at an early hour this morning, when a
letter pouch intended for the train 60

the robbers after being cut open and its
con ,ents taken out. The letters had al
been taken out and opened and were
found scattered about near the railroad

John Stambaugh. Jr. said: Eve will
have railroad connections some time in
the future and in the meantime II Is
good property to hold. We do not pro-
pose TO build a steel plant there
The reason for the purchase OF dock
age facilities is because the trusts are
gradually shutting off the independent
furnaces from the lakes. Both of these
concerns are independent plants and it Is
said that the connection with the docks
and the plants will be made at once.
Both companies have ore mines in the
Mesaba district, and for the past threa
