TURK IS GROWING
MORE PEACEFUL
(By Associated Press }

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 13.-The
withdrawal of Turkish troops from
the Persian territory to the west of
Tabriz, as well as the more concilia-
tory spirit shown at Constantinople,
is regarded here as obviating the
necessity for the present of taking
further precautionary measures on
the Turkish and Persian frontiers,
and it is probable that the dispatch
of troops from the interior of Persia
to the Caucasus will be abandoned 4
pending further developments Thus
the alarming statements that Russia
was concentrating force of 10000
men for military demonstration
against Turkey can be dismissed, for
today the outlook is decidedly better
and more peaceful.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-The early
stock market today presented graph
ic evidence that an important pro-
portion of conspicuous selling, which
carried prices downward on Monday
and again in closing dealings on
Tuesday, must have been rather reck-
less operations ON the short side of
the market. When those sellers felt
impelled to cover their contracts to-
day they found a scarcity of stocks
offering and rather mercurial up
shoot of prices resulted. Almost
equally striking was the relaxed tone
of the market when the needs of un-
covered bears had been satisfied. The
days developments bearing on the
general situation were not important
Reports of some additional mill re-
sumptions also were made feature,

People are coming into the camp
from all directions, and coming in
very rapidly. They are filling up the
camp, and since | was there three
weeks ago there are at least $50
tents and houses that have been put
up There was quite a number of
people got in there from Goldfield
during the past week. Billy Bond,
of the firm of w. F. Bond & Co. of
Goldfield, took up a traction near the
Grutt property, for himself and as
sociates, and they are going to work
it right away. John Reynolds, an
other broker from Goldfield, and
Marvin Ish were also in the camp.
J. l.. Kalfus, one of the Mohawk
leasers in Goldfield, has taken over
the Black Buttes, which is located
near the Last Chance and the Bluff
Lode, the latter being the well
known property of Zeb Kendall
San Francisco has also evidently
awakened to the possibilities of the
new camp, for there were several
people in there from the metropolis,
and they were all looking for invest
ments. There seems to be a good
inquiry from San Francisco regard
ing the Royal Tiger.
Billy Mikulich, who used to be
here and was later at Manhattan,
and still later in San Francisco, is
in Rawhide. He has secured prop
erty on Balloon Hill, and is going to
open a brokerage office. The Raw
hide John Patrick Mining Company
has been organized. comprising some
claims near the Royal group The
latter group is looking better than
ever
Real estate is away up in the air.
Lots on Main street are held at pro-
hibitive prices, if indeed there are
any for sale The prices are dis
couraging to anyone who contem-
plates going into the mercantile
business. But they are going fast
over there. Plans for a stock ex-
change are already under way. and
they are getting subscriptions for
memberships quite readily.
The first issue of the Daily Raw
hide Rustler was to make its appear
ance this afternoon The sign over
the Office of the Rustler can be seen
all over the camp; it is the biggest
thing in town.
Another good thing in favor of
the camp is the fact that there is
considerable leasing going on in the
flat near Jumpertown. Burt Open
haver and Jack Humphrey have a
lease there which is looking all right
and there is another lease the own
ers of which | cannot remember,
which has the pure quill. There are
more Tonopah people in the camp
than any other people, and it looks
good to bump into one of them at
nearly every step. NOW, the Gold
field people are getting in. and you
may expect nothing but a stirring
camp.
While Mr.. Gibbons was in Raw
hide. he officiated at the first funeral
of the camp. Dave Welch. an old
Comstocker, died of pneumonia, and
as there was no minister in the camp
Mr.. Gibbons was called upon to per.

he did very gracefully. Posters were
