Omc;al announcement that trading in

Exchange on Saturday was followed
Yesterday by feverish activity among
The brokers who had been absent from

teen weeks. Many employees who were
thrown out of work soon after July 81
received the joyous news that they
oould have their old jobs back, ana
there were other evidences that wall
Street expected the reopening 70 marx
a period Of better business.
Among the banks active preparations
were under way for extending loans on
the securities 10 which open trading
is to be restricted. Call money rates,
which ruled yesterday at ga per cent

ers would find little difficulty In getting

GERMAN BANKERS
GET LOANS HERE
Swiss Banks Intermediates In
Transactions-SecuritieS
as Collateral.

German bankers have lately been at
tempting 70 borrow heavily IN New
York. In this fact. it was said yester-
day, is a partial explanation for the
extraordinary recovery in German eI-
change. which touched a high water
mark Of ON for cables. 1t was hardly
q week ago that cable marks were sell
ing below SO.
The proposals from German bankers
were sent TO number OF banks in the
financial district. The loans they asked
we're 70 run for six months and bear
interest at 6 per cent. As security for
the loans the Germans agreed to de-
posit high grade German securities
with any one of a number Of Swiss
banks which might prove satisfactory
TO the lender.
Most of the applications were re-
ceived here last week, when marks
were abnormslly low and invited the
speculation. IL is believed that a con-
siderable amount OF funds was loaned
by local bankers. especially by houses
with German connections, which would
be likely 10 regard the risk of ex-
change as slight.
Mark exchange closed yesterday only
slightly below the top prices, checks
being quoted at 92% and cables at
92h. Sterling was a little higher on
the day, demand closing at 4.s8b and
cables at 4.S8S. Francs were quoted
a. 5.13z for checks and 5.12i1 for
cables.

DULUTH, March 14.-The contest
between the Duluth Central high
school basket ball five and the Hib-
bling high quint at the. Washington
gymnasium ended in a dispute. last
night When the final bell was sound
ed after the closely fought contest,
the Hibbing scorer had the count
standing 20 all, while the Duluth
scorer had the score Duluth 30, Hib-
bling 20. Spectators took part in the
argument and while the Duluth team
had lot of supporters there were
several spectators who were keeping
the score and backed up the Hibbing
claim. AS result the real outcome
probably never will be known for the
two scorers sat in different, parts of
the hall and did not check up their
totals from time to time. ....s.
The game was hard fought and was
close throughout, the first half end
ing 1912 with the Zenith City boys
on the heavy end. O'Brien at center
and Matt Brown at guard were the
stars for the locals. Israel sher, man
ager Of the Hibbing team, said last
night that he regretted the tangle in
which the game was ended, but felt
that the Hibbing scorer was entitled
to consideration, especially as several

Belle MINES
Be PEllED

From Saturdays Daily.
Drillmen operating in this section
have come to the conclusion that the
steel corporation will do much devel-
opment work on the eastern Mesaba
range. during the present year.
Their reason for this belief is based
upon the fact that every available
drill in being engaged and brought to
this section, showing that the COM
pany is in an unusual hurry to de-
termine the amount of ore they have
in given properties.
Just as an instance of this activity
it may be noted that there are forty
five drills now working between BIZ
wabik and Mckinley, with five more
being. set up as this is written, and
with orders for ten more as soon as
they can be shipped here. Why such
haste unless. mines are to be devel-
oped?. =
As d drillman put it to the Times:
"Twenty of the drills operating in
this territory belong to the steel cor
poration and it is the practice Of the
company to keep the men operating
them employed right along. It stands
to reason that if there was not some
reason for haste they would not be
putting on independent drills, as we
could go right along and complete the
work some time next summer. With
the extra drills working we ought to
finish the job by May /. To me that
means the opening of several mines
between Biwabik and Mckinley this
next summer. If they are not opened
I will miss my guess"
Three Of the drills being set come
from Longyear and two from Peter
son. Both concerns expect to send
more drills here in the next few days.
Mr.. Sibenius and Mr.. Hutchins, in
charge of the drilling for the COM
pany, were up in special car early
this week, and visited the local head
quarters of the company and went to
several Of the drills. They urged the
pushing Of the work. Everything
points to the fact that there will be
something doing in the next few
months.-Biwabik Times.

SOME NEW COLORINGS
IN SPRING MILLINERY

~ 11A OaCu1u Ay . DoAAy'
Tango red and tango green will be
popular shades in spring millinery.
Nearly every year there are many red
hats among the advance straws; the
red is generally of a fiery hue but this
year a softer shade, known as tango,
has the field.
Many of the hats shown at various
openings have either a feather, bow
Of ribbon or some form of "stickup"
to give height. Simplicity is a char
acteristic Of many chic models. Head
sizes are small to conform to the
close fitting styles of hair dressing.
A new straw, Cuban lis on the mar
ket. A charming French hat of dark
Cuban straw in tri-corne style, edged
with narrow band of curly ostrich
feathers is being shown. A dash of
color is supplied by bright flowers at
two of the points. Dress hats have
tops made of plaques, there being alb
solutely no rims. The trimming is
placed between the top and the ban
deau. "A dainty pastel green hat,
something of the sailor shape, is made
of crepe, a material that will be used
in spring millinery. An attractive
dress hat is of white lace. A cluster of
shaded flowers brightens the left side
and black velvet streamers give CO.
quettish note.
