Mines and development push at Duluth iron districts
The Yale mine has expanded its boiler house and adds a high pressure boiler. Development at the Yale by Capt. J D Shea continues as Ashland Iron & Steel plans new machinery. York mine opens south of Fayal with 100 workers, and Halverson & Richards build an Iron Range spur. M L Fay sells Webb mine stake for 280000 to Oliver Snyder interests. Canadian iron find near new steel plant prompts work, while I P Ulven single-handily aims to test copper formation northwest of Upson. Coke deliveries rise, but lake navigation bounds progress and rail traffic strains underline steel demand amid expanding capacity.
