AN EXPERTS OPINION.
SAN FRANCISCO, O:t. 12.-Heu,y
| Braatnober, the mining expert, Las
| returned from the Ktuntlke. His
| mission was to ascertain if any op-
portuuity presented itself for invest
ment. He says:
IL found some vsry good placer
mines, but not rs sensational in
the richness as has been reported.
La many cases the claims are con-
paratlv.ly poor, although almost
any of them will par wages. Ga the
whole, the Klondike may be classed
as very good diggirgs aud l should
say there is good chance for other
discoveries this fall.
II do not Glink there is much
danger Of starvation a. Dawson"
