1.-THE question of whether the Lake
Superior region will forward as
much iron ore this year as last will
depend on how we'll they take care
of the product at the other end of
the lake route" says a well informed
vessel man. There has been con-
siderable talk lately to the effect
that shipments this year will be
several million tons less than in
1902, and it may turn out that way.
But it is safe to say that there will
be no decrease this year if the re.
ceiving docks and furnace yards
will stand the pressure of the ship
ping ports on Lake Superior. The
only fear that they may not is that
much of our last seasons tonnage
has not been consumed. The short
age of coke had much to do with
the lack of consumption during the
winter, and the effect is likely to be
felt in decreased shipments of ore
from some points. But as gener-
al proposition the ore shipments
from Lake Superior are pretty sure
to equal those of last year."

State Coal ROYALTIES Fixed.

The board of arbitra ton to whom
was left the problem of establishing
a royalty rate for coal mined from
state lands, met in Duluth Friday
last and fixed the price at ~ cents
per ton.
Last winter when Duluth men
leased extensive tracts of land in
Aitkin county for coal explorations
the prospective industry was given
a severe jolt through the insistence
of state officers that the royalty on
all coal mined on state lands should
be the same as the royalty on iron
ore, 25 cents per ton. e The matter
was finally adjudicated by an agree
ment to leave the question to an ar
bitration commission of three. The
state land commissioner selected
the Hon. George Egerton, St. Paul,
and the Quodenaw Coal Co. chose
Thomas A. Merritt, of Duluth. ! The
third member of the commission 3
chosen by these two was ex-Sena tor
Hodge, of Pine City The commits
sion was guided in its deliberations
by statistics from other coal pro.
ducing states west of the Pennsyl.
vania fields. In Michigan it is 6
cents per ton, in Kentucky 10 cents
and IN Iowa 6 to 20 cents. SEs.
