FROM THE MINES
The Banner Year.

The ore shipping season
is rapidly drawing to close
and it is only question of a few
days when all thu ore trains will
have been withdrawn.
u AS far as the Menominee
range is concerned the season
has been a record breaking one.
From various authentic sources
the Press learns that the total
movement Of ore will exceed
100000 tons. of which total
the Chicago & North Western
road has handled about 5000, 900
tons and the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & ST Paul road between
100000 and 100000 tons. Last
season. 3,261, 221 tons were
shipped and in 1899 a total of
3,301,0 52.
A far as the St. Paul road is
concerned the season is prac.
)tically at an end. Some ore
may yet be moved from the
Crystal Falls district, but the
amount will not figure largely in
the total From this district
the St. Paul road has handled
467, 900 tons for the Chaplin com
pany, 81, 900 tons for the An
tome Orc company, $4,000 tons
from the Quinnesec mine and
about 1000 from Groveland.
The North Western still has "a
number of trains in commission
and yesterday seven steam
shovels were engaged in loading
ore into the company cars.
The Chaplin, Antoine and
Quinnesec mines have suspended
shipping operations for the
year. but the Pewabic, Aragon.
the Vu.cans and nearly all the
mines in the Crystal Falls dis
trict are still loading The
weather now prevailing will soon
cause total suspension.

Tuesday morning.
The Bird Mining company,
which is operating on lands
owned by this county, sent its
secretary to Houghton about
two months ago to call upon the
supervisors in regard TO affairs
at the mine. He stated that it
would be necessary for the com
pauy to shut down the mine on
account of the lack of men and
told hard luck story otherwise.
finally winding up by asking the
board not to collect the 81 900
due on back royalties on that ac-
count.
Captain Dunn yesterday said
that there was no occasion for
shutting down the mine, as men
are plentiful and can easily be
secured. The board accepted
the captains report and will now
insist that that the mining com
pany pay up the back royalties
and will take action to that
effect. Copper Country Dept.

who penned the above must have
added much color TO Captain
Dunn's report or else that gen.
tleman grossly misstated his
views when here. Inquiry at
the Bird Office fails TO elicit any
further information as no word
has reached the company of any
action on the part Of the Hough-

make a grevious error if they
do not deal leniently with the
Bird people.
