The bodies of these men were re-

Blast Furnaces.

Duluth-Immense blast furnaces for
the reduction of ore will probably be
installed in Minnesota by the United
States Steel corporation as the result
of it's having leased the vast Hill iron
properties in this state.
It has been demonstrated that the
steel company can distribute its fin-
ished products in Minnesota much
more cheaply than it can ship ere via
the lakes and rail to eastern shelters.
and the North Star state has excellent
prospects of obtaing a most important
industry by virtue of this saving.
Another argument favorable to the
rumor that shelters will be established
in Minnesota is the big market for
rails and other finished products in
the west and northwest.
