Wisconsin forest fires loom but cautious outlook prevails

Reports describe widespread blazes in northern Wisconsin with substantial yet disputed losses. Observers urge restraint, noting many claimed damages may be overstated while logging and lumber markets adjust. Local efforts raise funds for Spencer disaster victims as railroad expansion and regional industry revival receive cautious support.

Wisconsin Central gains, new extension to Colby mine

The new branch extends toward the Colby mine in Bessemer owned by Mr. Colby and associates with 8000 acres of mineral land on Gogebic and Penokee ranges. Wisconsin Central lines, including Milwaukee & Lake Winnebago and Minnesota St. Croix & Wisconsin, see revenue boosts and seven leases on adjoining properties. The Chicago extension to St. Paul has opened two weeks, and rail traffic has risen about 80 percent versus last year’s week. Buell’s salve ad promotes a skin remedy with 25 cent price.
