EtKO SODA WORKS
AN ACTIVE PLACE

The Elko Soda Works during the
hast several days has been a veritable
bee hive. Under the new manage
ment of VIM. p. Young, who is an old
hand at the business, the place has
assumed astonishing activity. Mr..
Young is a rustler, and already he has
secured orders which is taxing the
plant to its utmost. He has found it
necessary to put on a night shift for
time until he gets a stock of goods
ahead sufficient to accommodate the
trade.
Mr.. Young has secured the agency
for a splendid quality OF cider and he
proposes TO manufacture a line OF
sodas and other soft drinks the equal
of anything that can be obtained any
where.
A trial order Is solicited. Local
dealers should remember that a dollar
sent away is lost forever while a dol
lar spent for home product remains
here.

are greater in the United States today

Ter of the currency on figures made

March, the date of the last bank call,

Here is what the returns Stew:
Total resources of national banks.

Total deposits, $1O.79O. .OOO. 900, an in
crease of $2,198,O00.000, or nearly %
per cent within year and an increase
of SAIL. 100000 since December 31st

An increase of S990,000,0OO in loans
and discounts within lear.
Surplus and undivided profits of
81, ,031, ,278. 900. an increase of S18,OOO,-
900.
The increase in resources within
the past twelve months alone, Comp
troller Williams pointed out in a state
ment tonight, exceeded the entire re-
sources Cf the Reichs bank of Ger
many; and the aggregate resources of
American national banks exceed by
$4,000. 200, 900 the aggregate resources
OF the Bank of England, the bank OF
France. the bank of Russia, the Reichs
| bank of Germany, the Bank of the
Netherlands, the Swiss National banl;
| and the bank of JapG n"
AS recently as 1896, the statement
| says, the entire amount on deposit in
national banks within the United
States was less than the increase in
deposits within the past twelve
months.
| Total reserves held by nationa

This is s993OOO.OOO more than the Law
requires and more than $100,000,0 900 il
excess of the greatest surplus reseTv,

reads the comptroller's statement
that the surplus reserve now held b.
the national banks would be sufficien
to give a further loaning power of 80

After the robbery the four victims
were marched over Ine nil and down
into the crater OF the extinct volcano.
The smaller robner cursed nis victims
all the time. and they feared that they
would be commanded to jump into the
big hot springs. When near the wat
er's edge they were commanded to re-
main there and the smaller remarked
that he would take care of Miss Days
auto. The robbers then took the auto
and drove away toward Elko. This
morning the auto was found half a
mile north of town near the Indian
village. The party walked to town
and alarmed the officers, who have
ever since been working on the case,
but so far no clew has been found.
While the work was evidently that of
amateurs, they managed to completely
cover their tracks.
The jewelry taken from Miss Day
is valued at more than $4,000, and con
sists as follows: Five solitaire dia
mond rings. the stones varying from
two to three and one-third karats: one
cluster ring of twenty diamonds: one
ring set with turquoise surrounded by
diamonds; pair of earrings each sci
with one and one.half karat diamond
one fleurdelis pin set with three Gia
monds, and a>diamond set gold watch
The girl Lizzie was relieved of /
turquoise and diamond ring.
Frank Golden was relieved of a dia
mond ring and S135 in cash. Franl
Turner was relieved of a revolver anC
a small amount of coin.
The party left Elko for the Spring
at one o'clock, and started home feV
minutes after two. 1t is evident tina

SENSATIONAL ROBBERY
EARLY THIS MORNING
TWO MASKED ROBBERS HOLD RETURNING FROM
SPRINGS HOTEL MORNING
SECURE $4,000 CASH.

One OF the most sensational rob-
berries that ever occurred in this sec
ton took place a mile west of Elko
on the road to the Hot Springs. at two
o'clock this morning.
Ollie Day and girl known as Liz
zie, accompanied by Trink Turner,
local saloon man, and Frank Golden,
a Lovelock saloon man, were return
ing from the Hot Springs in Miss
Days auto. When they approached
the grade near the big hot holes. they
noticed a big log across the road, its
ends resting on large stones. Turner,
who was driving. stopped the machine
and started to get out to remove the
log, when two men scrambled down
the bank, one in front, and the other
behind the machine. The. two men
were masked, one wore cap. the 9th
er a slouch hat, and both wore large
overalls. One is described as short
and the other tall.
The robbers covered the party with
guns and commanded them to hold up
their hands. The taller man proceed
ed to relieve the victims of their mon
ey and jewelry. while the smaller con.
tinually clicked his pistol and vilely
cursed, directing the operations of his
companion, and once commanding him
to bat Miss Day over the head" The
taller man was exceedingly nervous
and finally becoming dissatisfied with
his work, the smaller called him q
damned amateur and made him holt
the guns while he. the smaller. com
pleted the work of robbing his victims
Miss Day tried to conceal some o
her rings in her muff, but they were
discovered. The robbers, however
overlooked two bracelets, thirty dol
