STOCK EN-
CHANGES OPEN AGAIN.

RhyOlite, New, March 25.-The
Rhyolte stock exchange opens today
for the first call. Hereafter II will
hold two markets daily Originally
II was intended to open the market
on the fifteenth of February but the
rush In the building trades in Rhyo-
lite was such that the board room
could not be prepared for occupancy
until the present time. Another
thing that delayed the opening was
the flood of applications which the
listing committee was forced to con-
slider. Every property I'm the Lee,
Bullfrog, and GreenwateT districts
was offered for listing, and the COM
mittee was forced TO make a COM
plete tour Of the Southern Nevada
mining country before It was able to
pass upon the applications. The
stocks that are listed have been ap-
praised by the committee The first
days call was at the appraised valua-
ton. After the first call new stocks
will Of course open at the San Fran
cisco and Goldheld valuations. A
considerable increase I'm market quo
