Is GOLD IN NEW PLACERs.
But There Is No Justification 70,
Rush of Tenderfeet.

SAN DIEGO, June IA special to
the Union from Ensenada, Lower
California, says: The steamer st. Denis
arrived at San Quentin this afternoon
from San Rogue landing She will
bring from thirty-five to forty pounds
of gold dust to Ensenada from the new
placers. The reports now received from
practical people do not justify rush
by tenderfeet to the Sierra Pintada
fields, but confirm previous statements
that there is gold in sufficient quanti-
ties there to pay miners. One estimate
is from IS to SO per day and this Is
very conservative. Mr. Strick of lbs
& Co., who is returning on the steamer,
says the placers are adj right. and there
is much gold there, but that it is I'M
wise for people without experience or
improperly QUILTED to expect big re-
turns.
