Ant-New Gold Field.
A few weeks ago The MAIL published
a lengthy and glowing report as related
by }. d. Deloney, regarding the discovery
of new gold field in Wyoming. The
article attracted considerable attent ion
and great deal of discussion, and num-
erous prospectors have thought of seek
ing the new fields with the hope of soon
cleaning up fortune.
John BOxleiter, who has friend living
close by the place where Mr.. Deloney
reports there is SO much of the yellow
treasure to be found, and after reading
THE Mails report wrote to him about
1t, and the following statement was re-
ceived from him few days ago. The
letter is dated Pass, Wyoming, April 16,
and says:
The mines you refer to are located a
days ride from here, on a branch of the
Little Horn river The discovery was
made on bald mountain-the top of
the Big Hon range-on or close to the
very summit. Last fall the entire sur
rounding country was staked off. but
little work done. The discovery claim.
SO far as [ can learn is the only prospect
that has yielded paying Just how much
per day don't know. The gold which I
have seen from there is very good, and
quite coarse. The miners, as [ under
stand 1t, haul the dirt to the water, as
they have not yet water on the clam.
1t Is a cement deposit, and the vicinity
for quite distance is composed of it;
colors can be found all through it, but
whether in paying quantities, is the prob
em yet to be solved. Some half "a dozen
or more miners have put in the winter
there, and there is seven feet of snow
there at present, so that until the latter
part of May there won't be much going
IN. From what [ can hear, there will
probably be quite camp there this sum-
ner and the value of the location
shown. [ have not been to the locality
Now, John, you have the straight of
t, as near as I can give 1t, and you must
udge accordingly. There might be a
BONANZA in it, and there might not.
There is some fine gold there, no doubt,
Is the discovery claim proves, and per-
laps with more work other claims may
develop as we'll and perhaps better.
SuutD tDdfl9{4ey df gives a very fattering
They me mines, or prospects, and

more to the pan-of coarse gold-from
he discovery claim; yet there are other
claims that do not pan out near so we'll.
