ment. This brother, previous to en-
barking in this London newspaper en-
terprise, obtained his journalistic expe-
rience on American papers.
Mr.. Marks has been in Australia max
ing a study of the gold fields of West
Australia, New South Wales and New
Zealand. AS these mines develop,
which they are now doing very rapidly,
he predicts very remarkable increase
in the supply of gold, amounting, in
fact, to glut of the yellow metal in the
market. The mines of West Australia
are particularly prolific, but have the
disadvantage of being in country
scantily supplied with wood, water and
means of transportation. But these
disadvantages are being rapidly over
come. The government is extending
the railroad from Perth to Coolgard1e,
on to Kalgoorlie, better known at Ho-
ANUS, 25 miles, an extraordinarily rich
mining region.
The government has also asked parlia-
ment for $4,000, 900 for the purpose of
laying 5000 miles of water pipe. In
many places drinking water sells for two
shillings gallon.
From here Mr.. Marks goes to Cripple
Greek to investigate the mining pros
poets there. HIS paper, he says, has
always had favorable opinion of the
Cripple Greek fields.
