IMMENSE SUM is INVOLVED
State Of Minnesota Claims Title to
Iron Ore Under Lakes.

State OF Minnesota Claims Title to
!. iron Ore Under Lakes. 55
Fifty million dollars is involved in
the suit brought by the state Of Min
nesota to determine the ownership
OF iron ore under the waters OF
meandered lakes, according to Sam
uel e. lyerson, state aaditor. The
test case is that of the state against
Eliza korrer, c. n Korrer, l.. K.
korrer, John Brennan, A. B. Coates.
Mabel r. Coates, the White Iron Lake
iron company and the Euclid Iron
Mining company, all of Duluth. It
will be argued in the supreme court
June 80.
Embarrass lake, south of Biwabik,
in st. Louis county. according to Mr..
lverson, has under it's water 300 feet
OF the finest iron ore, and perhaps
more. The value of this deposit can
hardly be estimated, but the auditor
believes that the royalties from it at
81 ton would net the permanent
school funds of Minnesota at least
30,0O0,O00.
There are other lakes the beds Of
which contain rich iron ore and the
auditor says that if the sovereignty OF
the state is once established over this
property the ultimate royalty income
will reach the $50,000,OOO mark.

Is Killed.
Falling $50 feet from where he was
at work on the topmost pinnacle of
the new Roman Catholic cathedral at
st. Paul, Michael Hofer, twenty-four
years of age, an ironworker, was
Instantly killed. Nearly every bone
OF the mans body was broken.
Hotter, who was employed by Con-
tractor w. J. Hoy, had been at work
on the cathedral building only about
two weeks. Together with Richard
Best, another ironworker, he was as.
sisting in hosting a beam, when, it
is said, the rope broke.
The sudden release of the heavy
weight threw young Hofer over and
in an instant his body was shooting
toward the ground
At the same time Best was striv-
ing to regain his balance, lost when
the beam gave him a blow on the
shoulder. He was saved from Hofer's
fate only because his hand fortunate.
ly caught a support. However, his
shoulder was severely injured by the
beam.

President Wilson Intends to Use

Against Mexico.

Washington, April 20.-General Vic
toriana Huerta has defied the United
States and refused to order a salute
Of apology to the American flag. That
is his answer to President Wilson's
ultilnatum. ...
The president, acting on the de-
fance of the Mexican dictator, will
appear before joint session of con-
gress and will ask for authority to use
the army and navy to enforce the de-
mands Of the United States.
This request will be granted i'm

lic
This movement, while not in itself
an act of war, is almost certain to in

Washington accepted as inevitable an

Dizziness, the result of the extreme
ly hot weather, is dominating the en-
tire live stock and fresh meat trade.
All grades of cattle, except bulls,
which for the moment are scarce, are

movement of cattle from Texas has
complicated the situation, somewhat,
