COKE OVENS AT THE 500
Lake Superior Corporation Plans tt
Build Them.

sAULT STE. MARIE, MICH.-An-
nouncement is made by Attorney j. H.
More, of the Lake Superior corpora
ton, that the construction of coke
ovens in the American 500 is a prac-
teal certainty. This statement has
been brought out in connection with
the contest being waged over the gas
franchise it is planned to award to the
concern making the best proposition.
Among others r. H. Clergue, pro-
moter Of the original Console
dated Lake Superior company, is
in the field for the franchise,
and according to Attorney More,
the Lake Superior corporation
Is vitality interested with him despite
the claims from the east that Mr..
Clergue's connection with the COM
pany was a thing Of the past.
suaT The Lake Superior company is a
large consumer of coke and finds that
bringing it to the 500 in boats Is not
practical. The coke crunb1es badly
in handling. and for the uses of the
company in its blast furnaces the fuel
must be in large pieces. It is esti-
mated that coke loses from 15 to 20
per cent of it's value in shipment, and
to avoid this loss it Is now purposed
to establish ovens at the center Of the
company's operations.

Uncle Ephraim, 4 the mountain men"

fight. So well is the ract recognized that
very seldom do any Of the ld-timers take
chance unless everything is in their IA

their ugly disposition, makes them indeed
very dangerous. There are many cases
on record Of grizzlies weighing 1900
pounds. have never seen one that
weighed actually that much, but have
seen several that weighed over 1000
pounds and have seen skins that were
much larger than any have killed, SO do
not doubt the statement that they grew
to weigh 1900 pounds.

grizzlies are to watch a bait at night or

Denver Packing Houses.

Denver, July 25.-The News this
morning says: The packing houses of
Denver stand to-day exactly where
they did one week ago this morning.
The settlement and renewal of the
strike followed SO closely that but lit
tie change could be made in the stock
and meat situation in Denver and Col
orado, and to-day the western packers
are prepared to supply the whole west
ern country. The situation involves
these elements:
No raise in prices. A rise at this
time would be robbery, say the pack
ers. Complete preparations to meet
the western demand and make inroads
on the Missouri river market.
Union stockyards will receive 1000
cattle this week. Plenty of stock in
call for the whole western country.
Every Denver packer is again ready
for the critical situation which the
strike in the trust plants has precipi-
tated. The Western and Colorado pack
ing house managers last night stated
that put few men had been discharged
and tnat full force would be work
ing to-day, preparing to meet all local
demands. Managers of both plants in
sisted that there was not the slightest
reason for rise in prices and that
they would sell meat at the same old
figure
