ore is y e t moving- from upper lake mines to docks, tho this Is about thirty days later than the traffic generally begins. The dul lness In ore trade Is not solely re ­sponsible for this delay, a s labor troubles a long the lakes have tied up shipping to such an extent that until now vessel o w n ­ers have been unable to make an es t imate of the dates upon which they could com­m e n c e receiving ore.

The lakes are about open—even the enormous ice fields a t the western end of Superior are little hindrance to navigation. I t is expeoted that vessels wi l l be in commiss ion in a week or so.

Many Mines Affected. Having: been forced to stockpile ore for

a longer t ime than customary, m a n y mines are about to close, some have a l ­ready done so , and these mus t remain idle unti l enough shipping is done to g ive t h e m room.

This does not add to the comfort of t h e s i tuation. Then, again, the agreed

; price of ore Is such as to m a k e non-i bessemer mining scarcely wor th while , 1 and even some standard bes semer m i n e s \ are unable to make any money . A mine j or t w o has closed on this account, and

preparations for resumption a t Mesaba I non-bessemer properties are not a t all I s trenuous .

If s tandard Mesaba bes semer is sel l ing ' a t Cleveland a t $3, or even a l itt le less,

a s i s reported on good authority, this | m e a n s about $1 a ton a t the mine, above

royalty, and is of course even l ess for non-; bessemers . I t Is an especial ly desirable I and eas i ly mined non-bessemer that can ' b e sold under such circumstances . But

of course such condit ions cannot endure. The Chandler and Pioneer mines of the

Oliver Iron Mining company, Vermillion range , havo not resumed, and doubtless wi l l not for some weeks , a t the earliest.

There have been wi th in the week a f e w olosures of mines on older ranges, for reasons g iven above, but these have little effect upon the general s ituation. A s soon a s sh ipments are general, some of these idle mines will resume.

Western Mesaba Developments . T w o shafts are bfeing sunk on the w e s t ­

ern Mesaba In deposi ts of the same sandy ore that w a s experimented upon by the Standard Mining company (W. P. Snyder & Co.) las t year. It Is thought that the !washing of these ores can be effected w i t h ' less expense than then seemed necessary, land s o m e important developments are lllkely to take place this year. j P u m p s a t the "Volunteer mine, Cascade ;range, are still running, a s they have been }all winter , but this is the only s ign of ^probable early act ivi ty . There is a large s tock of ore on hand, and m a n y idle m e n are about the location.

I t is expected that operations m a y re­s u m e a t the Richmond mine soon after $he opening of navigat ion. - . - ' ' ' •••••-.• •

There i s n o doubt t h a t if th i s Is done the "ant is" wil l hold a convent ion of their own, c la iming a majori ty of the delegates on the face of t h e returns, a n d each s ide will then declare itself t h e only republican party and the other s ide t h e bolters .

will be the expression most frequently heard at the Louisiana Purchase Ex­position. This hotel is an immense structure, 400 feet wide and 800 feet long, with 2,267 sleeping rooms, and a dining-room seating 2,500 persons. The hotel is inside the Exposition grounds, and operated under the su­pervision of the Exposition manage­ment. It is well appointed and fur­nished in m o d e m up-to-date style, and will be the center of social affairs In the way of dinners and family reun­ions Inside the grounds.

This hotel is in the southeast .por­tion of the grounds, »» t far from the Plateau of States, and to the north a short distance are the famous Cascade Gardens, Festival Hall and Colonnade of States, which form a part of the main picture of the Exposition. Street railroads running by the door go di­rect to the Union railway sta­tion, down town, and the Intra­mural road, inside the grounds, carries guests from the hotel ' en­trance to all points of interest.

The hotel rates cover the daily admission f e e to the grounds, and the registered guest at this hotel is free from the annoyance of pushing through t h e drowtts at the gates. There are 500 rooms at $1.60 a person, 500 at $2, 600 at $2.80,
