FIND THE LOST CABIN NINE
Long Lost Gold Workings Said to Have
Been Discovered at Last.
TWO MINERS STRIKE RICH VEIN OF ORE
Find Causes Rush to DiRginEs and
Thousands Look Upon Golden
Crevice and stake Out
of Claims.

CASPER, Wyo., Aug. 17.-(Special)-The
location OF the famous Lost Cabin gold mine,
for which miners and prospectors have been
searching for years, has been found. This Is
the belief Of a party of Buffalo miners that
have been prospecting on the south branch
Of Otter creek. sixty miles southwest Of
Buffalo, for FIVE or six years. and who last
week discovered rich veins Of gold ore in
that vicinity; also what they believe to be
the workings Of the now famous Lost Cabin
mine itself.
Albert E.. Sutton and Barnes G. Burrls
have been ~ work IN the district for 2 lorg
time, as have many other miners who be-
lieved the story of the lost nine. and who
were confident of some day discovering the
workings from which many fortunes were
said to have been secured in early days.
Each year the men secured enough ioat to
pay for their time and labor, but not until
a few weeks ago did they find anything that
looked like a rich strike.
The discovery is a drift in the side of a
nearly perpendicular cliff about fifty feet
high. The workings are in carbonates,
which are so rich that a dollars worth OF
gold can be picked out OF a square inch OF
the wall with a pocket knife.
On one of the walls is the following in
scription:
-" Gorham and Wilhelm Arbach,
1859"
There has been a Christian name before
the surname Gorham, but 1t cannot be de-
ciphered.
This inscription Is taken as conclusive
evidence that the Lost Cabin mine itself,
which was believed to be nothing more than
a crevice in a high cliff from the stories told
by Indians, has really been found.
When the discovery became known in Buff
falo and the surrounding country there was
a rush to the scene, and by this time fully
1000 people have gazed upon the wonder
full oliff and the golden crevice in its per-
pendicular side, while hundreds Of acres Of
ground in the vicinity have been staked OF.
Since the discovery the story has been
told that six years ago an old man arrived
from Buffalo from the east, and In company
with four young men left for otter creek
on a prospecting tour. To some acquaint-
ances he said he was one of the original
discoveries Of the Lost Cabin gold mine,
/ that his party was attacked by Indians and
all save himself killed. He escaped from
the red men, but nearly died from exposure
and hunger. For several months his mind
was a blank, and not for many years could
he recall the location of the mine, which
he described as being fabulously rich. He
spent several weeks in the country, but was
unable to find the mine, or at least he told
the young men Of his party that he saw
nothing that looked like II. AT Wells post

the old man died OF heart disease, and II he

eial,)-Many conflicting reports have been
received from the New Fork country, the
scene Of the recent raid. slaughter Of sheep
and reported killing of a herder. The latest
story is to the effect hat the trouble
was precipitated by foreign hockmasters:
that the number Of sheep killed was about
1000 instead OF 1900, and that Sam Guile

probably left the country. No one saw
him go, however, and no one can be found
who has seen him since. the raid.
Affairs In the New Fork country are
now quiet and there are no fears of
further trouble. The sheepmen, It Is I'M

line. and so long as they do that they will
not be molested by the eattlemen.
