DVLUTit, Minn.. Jan. 11. Tho details of

nro now under consideration. Tlio probnv
bllltlcs tiro thnt within ft fow weeks tho

mine, both on tho Vermillion raniro; tho
Norre, of tho Gogebic, which put out Uili
year nearly 1,000,000 tons, and tho Colby
group, also of tho Gogoblo rango, which
lias beou nut into such shapo that 1C can
como woll up toward tho capacity of tho
Norro. Thcso throo companies win mlno
fully thrco-fourtlis of tho Bossomor out
put of tho country.
Tho expectation Is that tho salo of tho
ores or theso companies will bo made
chlolly by ono firm of Clovcland brokers,
and tho Idea is to put tho prlco for noxt
season's dollvory at about $3.50 per tou,
instead of $2.50 to $3.00, tho prevailing
prices for tho pust season. The combina
tion will ovon then bo soiling oro for loss
than tho samo quality over sold, with ono
oxcoptlou, In this country.
Tho reason that draws tho big ci-acorns
Into this deal is said to bo tho opinion of
tho Rockefeller organization that It holds
tho long end in Iron affairs. Tho other
companies think this Is a good tlmo to ro
in ovo this Impression, and so no attention
will bo paid to Mesaba ores in the combi

LIFE hUMM,
A Pain-racked Sufforor Tolls An
Interesting Story.
now He Was Tortured For Years And
Finally Cured By Munyon's
Remedy,
Charles Wnrk. of 14 N. Twenty-fourth
St., Philadelphia, lms been a constant
sufferer from rheumatism for years. He
was cured by tlio two of Munyon's Uheu
mutism Cure. This is his story :
"I was nfflicted with rheumatism in the
right shoulder nnd suffered the most ex
criiclatlntr ncronv. Shurn shorting nalns
darted through It so intense I could not
sleep nights. Even tho weight of the
bed clothes was more than I could bear;
neither could I lie on the right side or on
my back. Life became a perfect burden
to me I could not raise my hand to my
head, and when I attempted to put on my
coat or any article of dress, the torture
was enough to drive me wild. Many
remedies were suggostod nnd tried, but
none diu me the slightest goon, ami i ue
can to desoalr of ever belnir able to oh
tain relief. Somo tlmo ngo, however, I
nrocured-Munyon's Itheumattc Cure. It
nffotded me relief alter the first few
doses, and by the time the little 25 cent
bottle was gone I was entirely free from
piiin. I have had no return of my old
enemy, and I feel satisfied I am ner
maneutiy cu.eti. it, seems so wontteriui
I cm hardly realize it, and can only rIiow
my appreciation of the merits of the
cur1 by recommending it to other suf
ferers." Munvon's Rheumatic Cure is euaran
teed to cure rheumatism in any part of
the body. Acuto or muscular rheuma
tism cured in from one to five days. It
never fails to cure sharp, shooting pains
in the arms. lees, suits, imcu or breast, ot
soreness In ony part of the body in from
one to three hours. It is guaranteed to
promptly cure lameness, stiff and
swoolen joints, stiff back, and all pains
in the nips ami loins, unromc rneuma-
tlsm, sciatica, lumbago or pain in the
dock are speedily cured.

Governor Turney Makes a Formal
Olahn of Ee-eleotion.
EEFUSED TO OANVASS THE
VOTE,
Wk
Democrat Itefitso to Allow the Itenult to
be Declared Until Action Is Tnlicn on
a Motion for Invent Igntlng Alleged Frnuila
at the Ilnllot llox.
Nasjiville, Tcnn., Jan. 11. A now
move was made In tho gubernatorial fight
yesterday. When tlio sonato met the pe
tition tif Govornor Turney asking to be nl
lowed to nppoar before the joint conven
tion of tho two houses "to contest the re
turns and to show that I was olocted, and
that II. Clay Evans was not," was road.
This was In tho nature of a surprise to
ninny, tho fact that such a petition was to
be presented not being generally known.
No notion was taken on the petition.
There was hut a short session of the
houso, tlio chief Interest centering around
the senate, where u lively debate was in
progress all day. Upon Senator Butler s
resolution to fix a day for the meeting of
the joint convention to canvass and nn-
nounco the vote for governor Senator
Belne, Democrat, offered a substitute
which postpones the convening of the joint
convention until an examination into nl
loged frauds and irregularltios shall havo
been mado during tills session of tho legis
lature. Tho dobato was opened by Senator
Butlor, and generally participated in by
bonators of both parties.
Tlio Republican nrgumont, outlined by
Senator Butler, is that tlio constitution of
tho stato provldos that tlio returns sent by
shoriffs to tho sponkor of tho sonato shall
bo openly canvassed nnd nnuounced in tho
presence of the members of both houses in
joint convention, and that no objection
can bo mado against tho correctness of tho
votes shown by tho faco of tho returns.
Tlio Domocratio senators contend that tho
faco of tho returns is only prima facio evi
dence, and tho correctness of tho returns
can bo assailed and nn investigation had
if nllogcd frauds aro proven; that all
proper corrections must lie mado and thon
tho canvass of tho votes mado nnd an
nounced by tho speaker of tho senate.
Tho debate was along these lines and
was quito animated at times and attracted
a largo audience, tho houso adjourning to
attend, when tho sennte adjourned tho
debate had not ended nud was resumed
this morning. Thoro is much activity
shown by the leaders and managers of both
sides.
Rumors havo boon afloat that from nlno
to thirteon Democratic legislators had
promised to voto for tho seating of Mr.
Evans without an investigation nnd con
test of tho returns, nnd Domocratio man
agers havo been busily engaged in run
ning these rumors down. They say thoro
Is no truth in them. Conferences and
muotings bjlilnd closed doors by both sidos
aro going on, and there Is much hustling
being douo by tlio steering committees.
PripoIug a Tux on lleer.
WASlliNQTt)N, Jan. 11. Tho sways and
means committee of tho houso met nt 10:30
this forenoon, on tho call of Chairman
Wilson. It is tho first gathorlng of tho
committee in many mouths, nnd it is an
ticipated that important action may bo
takon In view of tho deplotod rovenuo of
tho treasury. Mr. Wilson called up tho
resolution introduced by Representative
Penco, of Colorado, regarding a rovenuo
to bo mado by tho beer tax, nnd tho prob
ability is that it will bo f uvornbly reported,
Jlr. Wilson's bill for taking on tho ono-
tenth of a cent (inferential on sugar from
countries paying an export bounty is also
being considered.
