ANTON WULOTz
COMMITS SUICIDE.
YOUNG MAN IN A FIT OF MEN
TAI ALTERATION TAKES
HIS OWN LIFE.

Anton Wulotz, a well known
young man employd with the city
water and light department as line
man, in a fit of melancholy pro-
duced by family troubles committed
suicide Wednesday morning by
shooting himself in the head with a
80 caibre revolver.
Tony" as he was Familiarity
known by large number of friends
and by those who worked with him,
has not been in the best of health
of late and it is the impression that
differences existing between him.
self and wife from whom he Is es-
tranged, caused him to lose control
of himself with the results as above
stated. He was young man of re-
firing disposition, very sensitive IN
his nature and this coupled with the
trouble with his wife is doubtless
the cause for the i'll health he has
experienced of late.
Anton WulotZ was a member of
the American Legion and his mother
is member of the Auxiliary of this
city. He was one of the first con-
tingents to go from Ely in the late
war and served overseas with honor
to the close of the war when he was
discharged and returned to his home
and Iabors in this city. His parents
are old and respected residents of
Ely and the death falls with
crushing blow on his aged father
and mother besides whom he is sur
vived by brother and three sisters,
wife and baby.
Wednesday morning he left the
home of his parents at the usual
hour for his work with the city. He
failed to show up at the electricians
office and it was the impression that
he was sick at home. After lunch
his people became alarmed especial
ly when in looking into his room
it was found that his revolver was
missing. The police were notified
and the officers were on the look
out for him. About three o'clock
in the afternoon some boys return
ing from Lonstorff's creek reported
that a man was asleep near the road
on the hill west of the city about
where the old road camps were.
Parties who went to the scene found
Tony lying on his face with a bull
let hole in his head Coroner Parker
pronounced the case suicide, the
gun being found near his right hand
with one chamber empty.
The funeral will take place Sat
urday afternoon from the home of
his parents and will be in charge of
the Frank Lozar Post No. 24S,
American Legion. Rev. Father Mihel-
cic of the Catholic church will con-
duct the services.

ROTARY CLUB ENJOYS
INTERESTING MEETING.

The meeting of the Ely Rotary
Club Wednesday evening was in
charge of the Business Methods
committee of which Tom Miller is
chairman. The members had each
invited a guest and Chairman Tom
had secured "'Bill'' Gill of the Du-
luth club as the speaker of the
evening-and Tom had made no
mistake as "Bill' was good and for
over an hour entertained and in
structed the Rotarians and guests
with a fine talk on business methods
in and out of Rotary and what Rot
airy was accomplishing for the bust
ness man. The speaker had driven
up from Duluth TO be present at
this meeting. He was accompanied
by Major Fred Beecher who was a
guest of the club with Mr.. Gill.

neck was broken.
With Levstik in the car were sew
eral young people, all of whom sus-
tanned slight injuries. Just before
the car turned over another car was
met and the occupants of the latter
vehicle stated that the Levstik
machine was travelling at terrific
speed. The other car was off the
road when met but Immediately
thereafter the Levstik car zigzagged
for a few seconds and turned over.
The funeral of young Levstik took

Liberal prizes have been hung up
for the various events as can be
seen by looking at the attached
program. This program viii be
changed should it be found neces-
sary TO add to or take from. Time
will be the only drawback.
The ball game in the afternoon
and the sports at the ball ground
just proceeding the game will be an
attraction. The Kelly-How-T homp-
son team, leaders in the Duluth city
league will be the opponents of the
Ely team for that day.
The fireworks display promises To
supercede anything ever before put
on. This feature is an attractive
one wherein the entire population
can find amusement. Given on the
hill south of the city, the display
will be seen from any part of the
city and especially fine from the
vicinity of the School grounds.
The Virginians, seyen-piece or
chestra has been engaged to furnish
music for the ball at the Auditorium
IN the evening.
A perusal of the program will
show there is something TO the state
ment that we will celebrate. AL
ready assurances have been received
for large attendance from neigh
boring towns.

ORE MOVEMENT
QUITE LIVELY.
SHORT SHIP PING ASON
MAKES FOR ACCELERATED
MOVEMENT.

Some of the steel men do not look
for any marked stimulation in the
industry until the last half of July,
but that will not defer iron ore
shipments from Lake Superior TO
any great extent says Skillings Min
ing Review. There are only so many
days of open navigation and the
period must be taken advantage of
to provide material for the blast
furnaces until May 1, 1925.
If there, is to be stimulation OF
business this summer, and it be-
comes good toward the end of the
year, the ore supplies must be ac-
cumulated In the furnace yards and
on Lake Erie docks before Dec. l,
1924 Provision must be made for
improved demand and for emergen-
cies of various kinds. The ore
movement as at present indicates
that the shippers expect TO move
sufficient of the commodity prior 20
August l to be in position to make
up for any apparent shortage dur
ing the first three months of naviga-
ton.
The Great Northern docks at
Superior, during the first II days of
June, shipped at the approximate
rate of 50, 500 900 tons for the month
The bulk of the ore handled by
these docks is that of independent
shippers.
The reports of eurtailed opera
tons of underground mines may
have little significance as to the
season shipments, for they may have.
large accumulations of ore in stock,
and be prepared to ship heavily.
The pause in the activities of the
iron and steel business is not as
severely reflected at the Lake Super
Tor mines as would be the case if
there was all the year navigation
and ore could be shipped any day.
During first half of June there
had been shipped 3,32S,sS8 gross
tons iron ore from the Head of Lake
Superior and Ashland, and the total
for the season TO that date was g.
689, 800 tons. The shipments for
the full month of June, 1928, were
.7,933,719 for these same ports, so
that it would appear from the move
ment for the first half CT the month
this year that June will show up
with about 100000 tons at least, #
the movement Is maintained for the
last half Escanaba and Marquette
in May shipped TIL, $50 tons, so
that it is safe to assume that the
shipments from Lake Superior for
June will be at least somewhat in
excess of 100000 tons. This
would forecast season shipments
from the entire district to July / of
possibly 14,250,000 tons. This as
compared with 16,185,480 tons for
the same period in 1928.
It is manifest that the ore ship
pers are moving the commodity con-
servatively, but at the same time
they are going to have sufficient
ore moved by July Is or August L
so that by a moderate acceleration
of shipments over the last four
months of the season they viii be
prepared TO meet any reasonable
emergency of demand during next
fall and winter. July and August
usually are the two largest months
of any iron ore season.

LEAGUE LEADERS
FOR TWO GAMES.
HIBBING WITH ONLY ONE
GAME LOST HERE FOR
TWO GAMES.

Saturday and Sunday the Ely
fans will have the pleasure of wit
Messing the fast Hibbing bunch
and leaders of the Range League in
action on the local grounds. Both
games are called for 3 o'clock
Although the visitors are topping
the list they are not unbeatable
as Chisholm has already admins
tered the painful dose to them once,
Fautsch, the visitors crack short
stop has recovered from an injury
received in a Virginia game and
will give the fans a nice exhibition
of how the game should be played.
Although it is Kowalke's turn to
pitch. Gianotti or Chinn have not
yet faced Hibbing. Kowalke has
pitched two losing games against
the invaders. Cy Reiger who turned
Ely back once before and Matti-
more a southpay of sterling quality
will serve them to the local bats
men.
Jesmer a third base man, will
be a new face TO the local patrons.
He is a former Western Lacquer
having had a try out with Mime
apolis. He lives in Keewatin and
is only able to take part in Ely's
Sunday games. Mason who has
been covering first base for Ely IN
the last three games has proved
himself to be a valuable addition.
He is leading the hitting with per-
eentage of .437.
There is talk of a split season.
That is, the schedule would be
chopped into two parts with the win
ners of the halves playing a cham
pionShip series. This would be very
favorable to Ely and the ether
towns except Marble and Hiding
who are now leading by a comfort
able margin. It is said that Hib-
bling is not particularly averse to it
so the idea will probably be acted
on.
The games for today are: Hib-
bing at Marble and Chisholm at
Virginia. Sunday Chisholm plays
at Eveleth; Virginia goes to Marble
Hibbsng comes here for Saturday
and Sunday.

HOGS STRONG TO
5 CENTS HIGHER
Light Receipts and Higher
Prices Elsewhere Re-
SponSibIe,


Prices for hogs took on strength If,
trading at the local livestock market
today, principally as the result Of light
local receipts and influenced by strong
err prices at other marketing centers.
The market as a whole was quotably
steady to cents higher, though open
ing prices were probably 5 to 10
cents higher than the low time on
Tuesday. Practically all weights and
classes sold at $7.45, at which prices
the bulk OF sales was made. Some
weighty hogs sold at $3.50 with a top
of $7.55. Hogs selling at s7.45 were
a dime higher than late sales Of about
1000 hogs at s7.35 on Tuesday and
a nickel higher than the bulk sales at
$40. Kingan & Co.'S buyers offered
$40 for their supplies, but we're un.
able to secure any offerings at the
start. After the opening bulge, how
ever, some hogs sold at that figure.
Sows and pigs strengthened with
pigs selling down from s7.25, though
generally at 81, and sows down from
$3.50, though rarely higher than $685..
The days receipts touched 1000, in
elusive OF Tuesdays unsold number
ing 1875.
A slightly easier undertone prevailed
in the cattle market, due to the alb
sence of~prime stock and thu sur
plus of cows and heifers which have
suffered severe declines in the past
ten days. only the very best class OF
stock brought steady prices. Receipts
/ 900
Calf prices were generally half dol
lar lower with a practical top Of Sl3
and an extreme top of $3.50, while
the bulk sold from s12 TO $1S. Re-
ceipts 600.
Lamb prices were regarded as a
quarter higher at S13.25 down while
sheep were steady at 81 down. Re
ceipts 800.
