CARS ARE QUITE SCARCE
The Milwaukee Road Seems TO be Hardest
Pressed For Emptes.

Shipments of wood products are
being greatly interferred with because
OF scarcity os cars, especially on the
Milwaukee, where cars are. at a prem
ium Just now. especially anything in
the box car line.
Officials Of the road in explaining
the shortage say that the trouble is
more with the motive power than with
the cars themselves The cold weather
simply put the road ont Of business for
time because their engines were nor
able to haul such loads as during the
milder weather and they had no more
engines TO put at work
AT one time the sidings were full of
cars as far north az Charming and one
day an engine was set at work pulling
loads from kChanning to Witbeck 80
that room might be made in the Chan
ming yards TO switch around the londs
standing ON the sidings and get the
transfer business going.
Logging flats have been more plenti
ful 10 supply than box cars. One rea
son for the scarcity of boxes up in this
section is the copper shipments. Every
car obtainable on the Ontonagon
branch is sent TO the copper country to
be loaded with copper for eastern
points

Immediately the shaft was sealed

Sunday afternoon when the indications
were that the fire had dIsd down

In the mean time the steam pipe
broke and the pumps all stopped. This
latter accident was caused by the fire
burning the legs out from under some
caps at the pump station on the 18th
level, allowing the rail can TO fall
across pipe and break it.
AS soon as the shaft was uncovered
the skip was lowered and il was found
that the water was in on the bottom

Detroit llfe's Fine Showing

IL - indeed noteworthy record the
Detroit Life Insurance Co. made IN
the first eleven months Of it's existence
the placing of -. l47. 40 OF life in
surance on its books This is all the
more remarkable when IL Is known
that. Notwithstanding that the com
pany was launched in February OF
1911, il was we'll along in June before
IL began Co write business in any ap-
preciable volume. The tact is also
worthy Ot note that up 10 the present
time the company has not been called
on to pay a single claim not one death
occurring among the |, 100 odd policy
holders. In less than year, this new.
est OF Michigan life insurance com pan
les placed itself in eighth place in the
amount OF business written ia 1911 In
this state. Just what this means is
best appreciated when il is known that
in that year there were 90 companies
writing lite insurance in this state.
This most commendable record OF the
Detroit Life is due in a great measure
to the able executive ability OF the
president. NJ f. O'Brien,
