interested par ties appointing September 7 as the date of a public hearing to show cause why the old Michigan Central bridge between Grosse lie and Stony Island should not be removed as an obstruc tion to navigation The action was taken on complaint of Dr David Inglis and the owners of the steamer Mascotte It is claimed the old bridge which was built In 1872 3 is an obstruction and was not constructed under authority of law The owners of tlie Mascotte contend the boat loses much time in running around the island because there is no draw In the bridge There is a good seven feet of water under the old Structure and if the bridge is re moved the boat could navigate at that side of the Island or several years the bridge has been unsafe for travel and nobody has been allowed to use it It has been abandoned by the railroad as a high way for many years Duluth September 1 The shipments of iron orc from Minnesota mines in the month of August aggregated 2545 050 tons against 2496756 tons
