we're notified and an investigation was
begun at once. II was found that an
old safe, not locked. belonging to
Joseph Kron. had been opened, and
a box containing some of Mr.. Kron's
papers were taken. Mr.. Kron said the
papers were of no value to him. They

about fifty cents.
Sheriff Osten and Chief of Police
Klugherz at once set about telephon-
ing for information. The neiehbor-
ing cities were called up. II was as
certained that an automobile pod been
heard to go through Faribar't about
five o'clock in the morning. Also that
one had gone through Mortified be-
tween Ave and six o'clock.

were to sell their goods. the men who
usually bought them must have some
money with which to pay for what
they bought. So the merchants got
behind movement for public I'm
provements.
Mr.. Schermerhorn went on to say
that many of these improvements
could have been delayed. The mining
interests wanted them delayed. Fur
thermore the mining interests knew
that under the site OF Hibbing there
lay some twenty five millions of tons
OF iron ore and that would be wanted
some day. The, the site of Hibbing
would have to be changed. and the
streets and other public improve
ments, which cost so much money,
would have to be largely destroyed
Mr.. Schermerhorn stated that for
some time the mining interests had
been working the men only half time,
giving this crew and that crew en-
ployment for two weeks at a time.
This enabled the men to buy food.
but IL did not make good customers
Of them for the merchants. The mer-
chants wanted something done that
would give these men their normal
steady incomes. They argued that
now was an opportune time to get
the municipal improvements made.
when there was plenty of labor at
hand, and II would not cost a great
deal. All or this. of course. meant
higher taxes. The figures on paper
locked like frightful extravaganza
when one compared the population Of
Hibbing with the years budget Of ex :
penses, and took that comparison to-
gether with what Is to be seen I'm an
ordinary Minnesota municipality.
He stated that the falling off In the
iron ore consumption was due large
ly to two things. One was that the
United States Steel corporation, dur
ing the pending OF the suits to dis
solve II under the Sherman law, was
not buying much ore. Nor was that
concern producing its usual amount
OF ore during that period. Under
normal conditions. he said. the pro-
duction OF iron ore by the United
States was approximately 100000. 900
tons a year, end the United States
Steel corporation produced about
thirty four per cent Of that.
He said another factor that caused
falling of in the production of iron
ore was that the railroads had been
frightened up on their purchases OF
rails and other equipment. This was
during the pending of their action be-
fore the United States Commerce
commission to get an increase in
rates.
