AMERICAN SILVER is
NOW WANTED ABROAD.

German and French markets for
American refined silver for flat and
hollow ware trades are improving. Re-
finers report that shipments aggregat-
ing 6.675.000 ounces will go out by
express steamships to sail from this
port next week The bulk of the sill
yer is for manufacturers at Paris,
Dresden, Munich and Berlin, who want
the metal for the making OF easter
wares. American refined silver, as
made for the domestic makers OF
spoons, forks and hollow ware, comes
out with higher degree of lustre un-
der steel and agate burnishers and
bufflng wheels than silver refined in
Europe. which always comes from the
buffing with a dull leadish color

I'M SLUMP PREPARED FOR
BIG LAKE TRAFFIC GAIN
Equipment for Greatest Shipping
Trade In the World Has Been
Enlarded

Chicago, Jan. 24-The official clos
ing of navigation on the great lakes,
which may be expected any day now,
since the ice has begun to form in
the 500 and the Straits of Macinac,
will mark the end OF one of the most
important seasons IN the history OF
these great inland seas, which now
carry, according TO Governor John
son of Minnesota, larger volume OF
traffic each year than the combined
foreign commerce of all the nations
on the globe. While the actual tom
Lage this year shows falling off,
due partly to the business depression
important projects to increase the car
rying capacity of the fleets and i'm
prove harbor facilities have been set
on foot that will assure a greater vol
ume of traffic than any that has been
dreamed OF before. and the next sea-
son already promises to break all
previous records.
Everywhere plans are on foot for
deepening harbors and increasing
dockage. New steamships are being
built and railroads are extending
their terminals. Canada is not fall
ing behid the United States In this
particular The Grand Trunk sys-
ten, which connects with more ship
ping points on the great lakes than
any other railroad has announced the
establishment of q new port on
Georgian Bay. with mammoth elevat-
ors to store the wheat of the western
provinces. Two giant steamers have
been ordered by the same road, whose
lines north of Lake Huron and Super
ior are being extended every day.
And this is only what one railroad is
doing
Few people realize the important
Part the great lakes play In the COM
mercial life Of the north American
continent or the story of development
and progress that is told by the en-
ormous growth of the lake traffic
since the eighties. One-third of the
tonnage registered under the Amer
lean flag belongs TO the lake fleets.
In the last twenty years one billion
tons Of freight have been shipped
over these inland waters an average
distance of 1000 miles and last year
four times as much tonnage cleared
LuC uDCho dl lut . w peooCu
through the Suez canal.
The growth in the size of the lake
craft Is no less striking. In the CO.'S
the bulk Of the freight was handled
In schooners of 500 or 600 tons bur
dcn, with few 'propellers" and side
wheelers," that still relied on sails
rs much as on steam for their motive
power. The giant steamers that now
plough the waters of Superior. Huron
and Michigan are many OF them 600
feet long with a gross tonnage OF
1000 and carrying capacity OF $4,000
tens of cargo. Hand in hand with this
enormous growth in the size OF the
steamboats, has gone the gigantic
work of deepening canals and har-
bors to accommodate them. Uucle
Sans bill for this work to date has
been upwards of s75.0O0,000.

CHICAGO POLICE HAVE A
TRAGIC MYSTERY TO SOLVE

Chicago. Jan. 25.-The finding OF
an overcoat. currency, a silyer watch.
an incomplete telegram and a Sunday
school leaflet on the bank OF the Chi
cago river. has furnished the police
of the Chicago avenue station a tragic
mystery to solve. The money was
torn into small bits and scattered
about. 1t Is thought 1t will total $40,
The telegram read as follows:
Leave today for Prescott, Under

by jumping into the river.

even more than this and from the
first has shown keen realization of
the great commercial possibilities or
this vast natural highway, the navi-
gable length of which is over 400
miles. The latest developments. and
the most important ones. are those
undertaken by the Grand Trunk sys-
tenn The establishment of terminals
at Tiffin, on Georgian Bay, will Gre
ate a new port and one which will
differ from any other northern one on
the five lakes in that it can be kept
open all the year round. This Will
be accomplished by the use of ice
breakers. At present much of the
grain from western Canada that leaves
Fort William, on Lake Superior, goes
to Buffalo. Elevators are now being
built at Tlffin that will take care OF
part of this, whence 1t will be ship
ped through eastern Canada to tide
water. The elevator Is an immense
affair with a storage capacity OF TO-
900, 900 bushels and an unloading cap
acity of 10000 bushels an hour Four
years ago there was no harbor at this
point. When the railroad men first
came to the place there was nothing
but wilderness of pine stumps and
brush and where the steam dredges
arc now working were only rocks and
waves.
The greatest increase In the carry
Ing capacity on the lake is that which
will be made by the new fleet OF fast
steamers which is being built by the
Northern Navigation company. These
vessels will carry passengers as we'll
as freight and will set new speed rec
ords between Fort William and Sar-
MIA The first of them, the Harmonic.
which has just been launched, is
good type OF the new capacious liners
which are rapidly displacing the mis-
cellaneous craft of the old days. The
Harmonic is now the fastest vessel on
the lakes. She Is 365 feet long, has
a gross tonnage of. 5000. and can carry
100 900 bushels of wheat besides the
passengers. Ships like this are YER

San Francisco, Jan. 25.-Without q

practically admitted that at least a

considerably extended, unless the pro-
