 to Local Public

When plans for the installation of an information bureau at the chamber of commerce are completed, as they have been outlined and are now being car ried out by Secretary ROhrabacker, there will not be better establishment of this kind Tn Arizona.
 Daily papers from all parts of the United States will make up a part of the new information bureau. In an swer to requests made to various pub lications throughout the United States, asking that they send copies of their paper to the chamber of commerce, See retary Rohrabacker yesterday received over two dozen replies, in which it was invariably stated that the chamber of commerce would be placed on the free mailing list.
 As the result, there will soon be on file copies of the principal newspapers of New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington, Chicago, Denver, Los An geles, San Francisco, Spokane, Seattle, Portland, Tacoma, St. Paul, Cincinnati, and many of the other well known cities from coast to coast.

INFORMATION BUREAU FOR
 CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

Many of the publishers stated in usual for chamber of commerce to be placed on their mailing list, but that Globe occupied such a unique position in the mininO world that they were more than willing to furnish this city with a free copy of their publication.
 In addition. time taD es rom prac- tically every railroad in the United States will be secured. Favorable re- plies from many railroads regarding 8 request for this literature are already coming in and it will be matter of only short time until this very i'm portant feature of the information bu- reau of the chamber of commerce will be completed.
 Even the dates of sailing of Atlantic. Pacific and Gulf coast steamers will be- secured, to furnish information of this class to the "ublic, should it be desired.
 The United States land office at Phoe- nix is preparing to furnish the chamber with data regarding lands in Arizona and New Mexico which is open for en- try, and as the result, another class of valuable information will be added to the bureau.
 Much of the information which will be on tap at the chamber of commerce cannot be easily secured through any other source in this city and the inno- vatiOn should become very popular

CHAMBER |NSTALLS FINE MINERAL
 CABINET Open to All Exhibitors in District Who Are Asked
 for Specimens

For the purpose of providing a min eral exhibit for the chamber of com merce, cabinet costing, about $lOO is being built and within the next few days this cabinet will be installed and the nucleus for mineral exhibit start ed.
 This exhibit should eventually become one of the best in the territory. The cooperation of every mine owner will be asked by the chamuer of commerce and as there is ample room in the new home of the chamber to house an eX- tensive exhibit, it should be matter of only short time until the mineral collection is well started.
 In sending in specimens, Secretary Rohrabacker of the chamber requests that nothing larger than eight inches square and four inches thick be turned in, as the size of the cabinet will not permit of much larger specimens being placed on exhibition.
 All specimens received vii. be label ed, classified, described and inaexed, Tn order that a complete record of every specimen can be easily secured by any visitor to the chamber of commerce. rooms. The same attention will be paIc to specimens turned in by the pros pector as will be given to those iron the big mining companies, and as tho result, the entire mining district should be well advertised.
 A number O. good specimens wer, sent to the chamber yesterday and as soon as the collection is well started | it is expected that ores from a. part of the district will be donated.

ALL PRICES LOWER AFTER WEEK Of:
 DULLNESS
Large Expectations of Gold Expected Next Week
 Metals Quiet

NEW YORK, February 26.-The stock market remains largely in profes' sional hands and the recession in prices today may be ascribed to the disappoint- menI ot the professional element over attempts to advance prices earlier in the week. The persistent strength in the foreign exchange market was an indication that further exports Of gold might be feature of the next week markets. The heavy volume ot mer- chandise imports at the port of New York and the coming maturity of cor poration note issues, of which large portions are held abroad, explain this movement.
