ANOTHER PIONEER GONE.
william James Passed From This
Life Early In the Week.

William James died at his home
In this city last Monday morning al
ter an Illness that has lasted inter
mittently for some time back. Mr.
James has been unable TO work for
several months and gradually weak

Deceased was born in 1850 at Bath

lowing the woods as numbering was

Of that province in Mr.. James time.
lie came TO America in 1877 and
settled first at Oeonto where he was
engaged in numbering operations and
later on came TO the Menominee range
when that section OF the upper pen
insula was being opened by the iron
ore explorers.
Mr.. James became interested in
iron explorations and for many years
was constant deliver into the earth
in an effort to bring forth some OF
the hidden treasure. He unearthed
some good properties but ill-fortune
followed him for he failed to reap the
financial benefit from them that he
should have reaped.
lie was an expert axman and fol-
lowed the woods until his advancing
years compelled him to seek lighter
employment and he acquired some
farm lands north of the city and de-
voted considerable OF his time the
past few years to developing those
lands

HAMPERED BY
BOAT SHORTAGE
MOST OF CRYSTAL FALLS MINES
STOCKED ORE LAST WEEK
BOATS GOING TO SUPERIOR
Docks at Escanaba Are Plugged
and Thousands of Cars Are
Standing Filled

The shipping OF iron ore from this
section received a severe setback the
latter part of last week due to the
lack of boats with which 10 load the
ore out that encumbered the docks at
Escanaba There has been search
ty Of boats at the port for several
weeks and last week il got so acute
that the ore piled up to such an ex-
tent that cars had to be denied the
mines that failed to get boats around
to take away their product
The Milwaukee road has been a lit
tie more fortunate than the North
Western and had dock room for the
mines that were shipping over that
road. Later on the boats commenced
to arrive and enough ore was taken
out OF the docks to allow Of cars be-
ing furnished to most OF the mines
Boats to Superior.
The reason for the lack of boats at
Escanaba is the fact that most of them
are being sent to Lake Superior to
get the Bessemer ores from the ports
of that lake that are desired more
THAI the ores from the Menominee.
Lake Superior was late in opening to
navigation this year and that fact has
put the ports of that body of water
little behind with their shipments
and there is a midsummer rush 10
catch up.
The shipments this year are fully
in keeping with those % last year
and il is expected that when the fig
ures are compiled next fall that last
years records will be equalled II not
exceeded
Stocks Are Growing.
The growth Of the big stock piles
in this section are distinct
encouragement. Every day that
stocking is carried on here during
the summer months reduces by that
much the stocking room for next
winter and for that reason many OF
the mine operators fight shy of stock
ing ore in the GUNNER time.
The Corrigan- Mckinney group with
the exception Of the Odgers was com
PEELED 10 stock last Saturday. The
Odgers was shipping over the St
Paul and for that reason managed TO
get car supply OF cars.
The Judson mines were closed, al
so, the boats not arriving fast enough
to take away the ore OF that com
pany i'm the docks.
The Carpenter mine was compelled
to stock its ore and the Ravenna
which has been shipping stockpil,
ore for some time had to suspend op
erations for few days.
The Bristol mine which has be en
shipping stockpiLe OF and on as or
ders are received suspended ship
ments for time also, so that there
was little ore going out Of this dis
trict.
The west sides mines were affect
ed, hut not to such an extent as were
the mines OF this section
While the boats were running this
week with better despatch than last
week, the tonnage was irregular and
the mines skated along on thin ice
all week, being interrupted in their
shipments frequently.
Shippers say that boats come to Es-
cauaba with coal and 90 light from
that port TO Lake Superior to get ore
rather than take ore from the Escan-
aba port This condition Is due Of
course to the desire to bring down
the high grade Bessemers.
