BANK OF RAWHIDE
NEEDS PROTECTION

RENO, New. May 19.-Owing to
the large quantity Of ore being taken
from the Truett lease on the Coali-
ton and stored in the Bank of Raw
hide. it has been deemed necessary
by the management of the bank to
ask for protection from the State au-
thorities and a detachment of the Ne
yada State police has been sent to
Rawhide to guard the bank until
such time as shipment can be made.
The ore includes some of the richest
ever mined in the State
There are number of desperate
characters in Rawhide and it was
discovered that a plot was on foot to
loot the bank. They had chartered
an automobile and intended to take
their booty in that vehicle into Death
Valley, The ring leaders found out
that their plot was discovered and left
the country before the authorities
could complete the chain of evidence
against them. 1t has since been found
that the members of the gang were
still plotting to rob the bank, hence
precautionary measures have been
taken.

FORMER FRIEND HAS NOM
NOTHING But CUSS-
WORDS.

The Shoshone mine on Tuesday
last shipped by express thirteen bars
of gold bullion that weighed about
1900 ounces and had a value OF
about $4,000.
J. G. Splane. a Pittsburg capitalist,
whom Mr.. Schwab bad "befriended
by letting him in on some Shoshone
at $12, was one OF the eye-witnesses
10 the shipment. The Pittsburg ma I
came here with nothing but cuss-
words on his lips for Schwab, Ne
wada, the Shoshone mine and the
whole works. He saw the Shoshone
mine he saw the consignment of
gold, which was only part of the
mines glitterinG product.
The result; Mr.. Splane is now the
biggest kind of booster for the
Shoshone and the Bullfrog. while his
opinion OF Mr.. Schwab and his Tex

the world. Mr. Splane, though still
unable to see just exactly where the
