SIBERIA RICH IN GOLD.
Greatest Field in the World Reported
Along the Amur River.

New York, Oct. 2S.-That the greatest
gold fields the world has even known are
in the Amur river country, eastern Siberia.
is the opinion of E. B. MCGOWAN, mining
expert who has just returned from
12,0G0-mile trip of exploration through the
Asiatic possessions of Russia The Rus
sions, he said today, took out s2,000.G09 OF
gold last year from the placer deposits and
have not yet begun to work the quartz
The mining methods OF the Russians are
very crude, Mr.. MCGOWAN says, and do
not compare with American methods.
The exhaustive trip he made through 81
IBERIA has convinced Mr.. MCGOWAN that it
is the richest undeveloped country on the
globe and from an agricultural point has
greater possibilities than the wheat and
corn growing sections of the United
States.
Before many years have elapsed said
Mr.. MCGOWAN, siberia will supply all of
Europe with grain. Many wheat farms
have already been opened and the govern
ment is encouraging immigration from Eu-
ropean Russia to this great and rich coun-
try.
THE Russians have not yet learned the
advantage of using American agricultural
machinery. but they quick to learn
and very shrewd, much shrewder than the
average Yankee. Before long their wheat
farms will rival in every way those of the
