Explains Tennessee Affair
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—The full explanation of
the shooting at the launch of the l nited States cruisei
Tennessee has been made to the state department by the
Turkish government. The Turkish commander of the
fort at Smyrna lays all the responsibility for the firing on
to the indifference oi the helmsman ot the launch who did
not heed the warning of the danger which he was running
from mines. Two blank shots were tired to wain him.
Then the Turks fired a soldid shot towards the launch
which was proceeding directly into a dangerous mine
field. Secretary of State Bryan stated today after the
receipt of this explanation that the incident is closed.

GRANT LAKE ORE HAD
NEARLY $250 A TON.
The crushing of the Grant Lake pro-i
perty ore at the Ellsworth mill has
been finished and has shown it to have j
$247.99 to the ton. The amount of(
ore brought in was two and a half
tons. Some of the ore crushed at the
same mill some time ago was much
richer but the ore last crushed was
picked over rock. The result of the;
work probably means, however, that j
a new paying mine has been proven, j
It is thought that the Harpers and j
partners will now continue to ship in
>re from the property for the winter
and have it crushed here.
