News From
New York

(From the RECORDS Correspondent
The markets of the past few
days have been characterized by
profit taking. The banking in
terests which brought steadily
during December have been TAX
ing down their gains, and the
result has been a normal, healthy
reaction, which has been helped
along by professional operators
on the short side.
The feature of the week was
the sharp decline in Shelters,
which the Standard Oil Anal
gamated interests are said to be
accumulating. Some people pro-
fess to believe that this buying
is being done now so that the
purchasers can pound the mar
ket with stock latter, but the
facts are that the accumulation
is part of the plan, previously or
dained, to permit the real rulers
of financial America to obtain a
Substantial interest" in Smell
ters and other Guggenheim en-
terprises.
Morgan is going to Europe.
There is harmony and peace
among the erstwhile warning
factions in Wall Street. Morgan
would not go off to Europe to
buy paintings and indulge his
fancies. if peace and harmony
did not reign. His departure is
the best sign that the financial
crisis is now history, and that
the banking position is safe.
Business will, in the course of
time revive, now that the bar
ricades which have blocked the
avenues of business are being
removed.
The logical position is the bull
position, and the slogan of the
investor should be, Buy on all
recessions.
Local influences are affecting
some stocks. The "coalers" are
suffering somewhat because the
mild winter is making the COM
sumption of coal unusually light.
New York would pass for a first
class winter resort this year.
The curb market continues
active. Several stocks which
have apparently been in their
shrouds for the past six months
came to live during the week.
Butte-New York advanced from
one to three and a half, and Fur

a ponce force for the State of
Nevada, the primary object for
which the special session was
called. The measure seems to
be good one and should meet
every requirement of such a
force. Some opposition to the
bill developed in the Assembly,
many members insisting that the
Mine Owners Association agree
to abolish the card system, now
in force, before they would agree
to vote for the bill; this was fl
nally agreed to and the measure
passed with the vote as above
stated.

After Dick 2
Chinaman Who Came In BY
Way Of Ell Paso Is In
terview BY Inspector.

A government Chinese Inspec-
tor was in Pioche the first part
of the week interviewing China
Dick, proprietor of the New
Pioche Restaurant, with a view
of ascertaining how said Dick"
gained access tothe United States
without first consulting the
authorities. Evidently Dick was
able to satisfy the Inspector of
his right to remain here for he
(the inspector) returned to San
Francisco without Dick.
China Dick has been in Phoebe
for nearly twenty years before
he returned to China some eight
or ten years ago, and when re-
turning he evidently expected to
stay the remainder of his life in
his native country for in some
manner he neglected to have the
proper papers executed. How
ever after remaining in China
for nearly five years; Dick
wished to return and believing
that an evasion of the authori-
ties would be the quicker he
chose this source. He came in
by way of Ell Paso, Texas. The
authorities learned of this, hence
the investigation. What the final
outcome of the investigation will
bring we are unable to state.

OH PSHAW!

One of the consuls to Persia, during
a recent visit home, said at a dinner
recently:
THE present shah will never be the
equal of his predecessor. What a char
acter the late shah was. He never
opened his mouth without saying some
thing worth repeating.
Lady Drummond Wolfe once got
permission to visit the shah's harem.
She took friend with her, a Miss
Blank, who was about to be married.
The two Englishwomen wandered over
the splendid palace, among the hun
dreds of beautiful young girls, and pre-
sently the shah encountered them.
Come here he said to Miss Blank,
in bis crude French.
She approached. He looked closely
at her.
you are about to be married?" he
said
" Yes, your higheness.
It's late!'"

HE GAVE HIMSELF AWAY.

Apropos of the movement in New
York toward the abolition of race track
gambling, Mrs. Jack j. Warren the
witty Vermont reformer, said the other
day in Burlington:
Race-track gamblers always claim
that everything about the game is
square, absolutely square. Cross-ex-
anime them very closely, though; look
into all their methods; question them
on every point, and, usually, like Col.
Teddy of Tin Can, they'll give them
selves away.
