CHARGES LAND GRABBING.
Nevada Mine Operator Sounds Note
Of Warning To Mine Owners
and ProSpectors.

RENO. Oct. 23.-colonel Wing
field Scott Preskey, one of the fore
most mining operators of this state,
sounds note of warning TO all mine
owners and prospectors throughout
Nevada. In his interview today he
urged all owners of prospects and
mines To at once record with the land
commissioner at Washington their
claims on patented land of the Cen
trail Pacific and the Southern Pacific
railroads He suggests not waiting
for the federal court decision which
Is now pending To determine the
olinghouse, Mill City and other cases.
He declares that unless these miners
and prospectors file their claims be-
fore January 3. 1903, all their rights
TO the claims will be forfeited IN the
railroad companies by the statute OF
limitation. which will give the rail-
roads an unassailable title TO the land
in question.
]. n. bennett, United States land
commissioner. SAYS lie will put every
available officer into the field 10 help
the mine owners and prospectors pre-
pare their cases Tor filing. The ter
ritory which the railroad seems bent
on securing comprises some 81 the
richest mining lands IN this state. and
the most strenuous united efforts OF
government onieials and mining men
will be put forward 10 frustrafe the
alleged grab.

SHORTAGE or SMALL CON.

In the September circular the Ma
tional CITY Bank of New York says:
Somewhat contrary to expectations
there is an early and strong demand
on the treasury for small bills, par
ticnlarly one dollar silver certificates.
The ability of the department TO snp-
ply the latter is about exhausted.
These certificates can only be issued
against free silver dollars held In the
general fund or in exchange for silver
certificates or treasury notes of 1890
of the larger denominations The
free silver has fallen from 4.043. 600
1T the beginning of August to S765,-
900 at the end of the month. The
demand for the one dollar certificates
is probably due in part TO the re-
yiving retail trade and crop moving
and in part to the fact that the silver
dollar is no longer transported at the
expense of the government. As ex-
press charges average on the Whole
81 per 81 900, taking shipments from
the minis at Philadelphia and San
Francisco-at both extremes-into
consideration. ii is apparent that the
certificates are likely hereafter 10
supplant in favor the actual coin, il
not with that portion of the public
which has been accustomed TO the use
of coin. at least with the banks which
are required to pay transportation
charges

MERCHANTS TOUR THE ORIENT

Two hundred members of the Illi-
nois Manufacturers association have
secured special steamer to tour
Japan, China. Korea and the Philip
pines. The trip is in no sense a
pleasure trip. but is gone into by the
big merchants solely to acquaint them
with the business methods and de-
mands of the Orient. They expect to
return home in several months with
first hand knowledge and experience
concerning the far east, and to lay
successful plans for doing bigger
and more profitable business with the
Asiatic countries.
1t is such undertakings as these
that are more and more enabling
Chicago to make F9od on its claim
to the title of "the sreat central mar
ket." First the Chicago merchants
took numerous trins throughout the
United States TO educate their coun-
trymen about Chic go, and now they
are going to fore'gn lands to educate
themselves to corner" the foreign
trade.

RAIL To RAWH|DE BY
CHRISTMAS TIME
GRADIN. IL NEARLY FINISHED,
AND MONEY FOR CONSTITUTE
TION IL ON DEPOSIT IN NEW
YORk-SECURED THROUGH
BONDING.

Charles W. Reed. of Rawhide,
states to the Tonopah Bonanza, that
the grading of the railroad into Raw
hide will be completed about October
ID. and that the work of laying rails
will be commenced as soon as the
grade is completed. II is believed
that twenty-five miles of railroad
from Schurz TO Rawhide will be IN
operation by Christmas.
In this connection, word has been
received at Rawhide, from Reno, to
the effect that money for the COM
pletion of the building of the Raw
hide Western railway has been raised
and is on deposit In New York. The
initial amount given ont as being
ready to commence the work is said
TO be S750.000. This has been seenr-
ed through bonding the roadbed and
will be ready for immediate use in
laying the rails as soon as some few
technical and legal requirements are
perfected.
This proving TO be the case, 40
better piece of news could be herald
ed in Rawhide, as the detrimental
effect of inadequate transportation
facilities for the great gold camp is
the prime cause to retard its rapid
and wonderful development.
The building of the railroad will
mean cheap and rapid transit for the
thousands of tons of milling grade
ores in which Rawhide abounds, and
il will be instrumental In providing
large and properly constructed re-
duction DIants at Walker Lake and on
the flats below town for the economi-
cal treatment of the products of the
mines

the present strike is supposed to have
been made Prospectors and mining

THE MESSAGE OF THE BUYERS

The buyers are here. Many more
are on their way. They have come to
the great central market" to lay in
their supplies for the fall and winter
trade. Some of them have been ae-
customed TO come TO Chicago whole
sale houses for years. Others have
been encouraged through the special
rates arranged by the Chicago Asso-
citation of Commerce in cooperation
with the railroads They are visit
ing the city for The first time. In
many instances the merchant is ae-
companied by wife and children, says
the Chicago Tribune
4 large number of buyers are reg
stered from the south. The trade
relations between Chicago and that
part of the country are steadily de-
yeloping Several lines OF railroads
connect the states south of the Ohio
river with this city. Shipments are
made promptly and goods are deliv-
cred quickly. The market facilities
themselves are unsurpassed. The in
eyitable result of such conditions is
a satisfactory trade which pleases
buyer and seller alike.
The interesting thing about the
visits of these buyers is the message
they bring. They know the situation
in their home community. They
know how the people feel regarding
the future. The aggregate of their
orders is largely dependent upon such
study antecedent to their depart
ure for the market place.
There is occasion for qualification,

spirit the merchants show. They are
laying i'm large stocks of goods.
Whether from the south. the north
or the west, they seem to believe that
there is nothing but prosperity ahead.
Their hopeful reports lend added
strength TO the growing conviction
that the situation is improving all
along the line.
