LEASERS' WORK
SHOWS RESULTS
Important Strike Made In
GOldfieId District
Ledge Opened Up On the January
Claim That Runs Si56 to
the Ton In Gold.

The hrSt strike made in the Gold
field district under the leasing system
was made this week on the January
claim, owned by Messrs. Johns, Clark,
Eisen and others, and being operated
under a years lease by Messrs. Pat
rick, Jones and Kendall. The Janu-
airy is a parallel claim to the Combin-
alton No. |, and indications favor the
assumption that the lattar's main
ledge, from which so much ore is now
being extracted, runs through the
January ground. Working on this
theory Messrs. Patrick, Jones and
Kendall drew an imaginary line to
the west and began surface cross
cutting in quest Of the hidden vein.
They had not proceeded far, however,
when they struck broken quartz and
ledge matter, and sinking in this a
foot or two they came upon a COM
pact body of ore exact in appearance
to that of the Combination. Samples
of ore, for five feet acI oss the ledge,
were taken and returns from the
local assayers, received Thursday,
showed values of $156 in gold to the
ton. Mr.. Jones was in Tonopah yes
terday getting tools and supplies in
readiness to begin active work, and
he thinks it will be but a short time
when it will be determined that he
and his partners have as big a thing
as the Combination people.

The Combination people are push
ing work and extracting large guam
titles of ore. The main shaft is dowr
over 100 feet in ore that shows NJ
diminution in value to that foun,

driven from the shaft at eighty fee

Amur region suffers from excessive hui
Nudity. which is unfayorable to agricul-
ture. The natural fertility Of the soil
is not great Although haryests OBJ
tanned on virgin soil are abundant. vet
the crops are bad in quality and but
little nutritiye. Diverse mountain
ranges crossing these regions and very
wide swamps reduce the cultivable area
to about 10000 English square miles
tout OF total of 100000 to 225 900 Eng
fish square miles,.
Almost the same characteristics an
ply to the Ousoury region, extending
along the coast of the Pacific. The eli
mate, although warmer, yet shows the
same peculiarities with reference to ex-
cesslye moisture as the Amur region.
the averages in this regard being on
the whole still less favorable to agri-
culture than those for the Amur region.
The entire area capable of cultivation
is estimated at little over. So 600 Eng
fish square miles
Summing up the figures given for the
cultiyable areas in the different parts
OF Siberia, we get a total of about 49,
900 English square miles This total
would still be equivalent to the com
bined areas Of Iowa, Missouri, Kansas,
Nebraska and both Dakotas.
The total crops OF Siberia for an av-
erage' year are given by official esti-
mates as about 1G0,000,000 pcods. OF
which S5,000,000 fall to the share of vest
ern Siberia. According to these eaicu-
lations, the Siberian harvest reaches but
one-twelfth of that of European Rus
STA. The corresponding figures in the
year for 1902 are 3,7l2,Q00 pools tons
European Russia), as against 124 ,O00.000
pools for four provinces of Siberia.
The amount, however, to be deducted
for seed grain is considerable, as for
winter grain the yield is not more than
skiold, for spring grains even less flour
to five fold), about as much as in Euro
pean Russia, and this Notwithstanding
the greater freshness of the soil. There
were exported during recent years
about 10000 900 to 12.006. 900 pools from
western Siberia, where the great riv-
ers. as the Obi, Irish and Tobol, pre-
sented convenient means of commune
cation up to the Ural. For the year
1898, however, the amount OF Siberian
wheat which actually reached the west
European border Il. e.. Prussia and Aus
tria) or Russian ports Of export is given
as over 10000 carloads. which. multi
piled by GOO pools. would give "a 1000 900
pools exported to Europe. The rest OF
the marketable cereals, has been con-
sumed within the country itself, mainly
by the mining districts. particularly the
places of gold washing.
Without going into tedious calculs-
tions, which at best would be but con-
jectural, it might be stated that for the
coming 30 or 40 years Siberia's chances
OF becoming the "granary" Of the world
and serious competitor Of American
wheat are not great

vLApIvosToK. CAPITAL on EAsrERN sIpERIA

Yadrintzeff, one of the best authorities
on Siberia. while reproducing these fig-
ures in his work on Siberia, makes,
however, the significant statement that
these. estimates have but "a relative
value" Since that time the knowledge
OF Siberia among Russians has in
creased, with the effect that the culti-
yable area is being estimated lower
every year, and, according to the most
recent calculation. constitutes but eight
or nine per cent. of the entire area, about
425,000 English square miles.
In western Siberia the cultiyable area
is to be looked for in what the official
report calls the zone of cultivation"
i. e., the region between IS and 5SH
degrees north Tin the Altai region only
to the fifty-first degree north. contain
ing altogether about 100000 English
square miles. with about 100000 popu-
lation. Out of this total area a con-
siderable part would have to be ex-
Guided. made up of marshes and moors.
salt and sweet water lakes. particularly
the so-called Barbara steppe, So that
only about LIT 500 English square miles
here, and $4,000 English square miles
in the Altai region, might be regarded
really cuitivable land. The amount Of
yearly precipitation is considerably less
for western Siberia than ut is for Ger
many or Russia under equal ATTITUDES,
the yearly average in the agricultural
zone being but $50 millimeters, as COM
pared with 500 millimeters in the north
ern part of Russia. However. this cir
cumstance does not yet present any dam
ger to the cultivation of cereals, for
the amount of precipitation during the
three summer months is rs millimeters,
only ten millimeters less than that for
northern Russia. The agricultural zone
in western Siberia shows about the
same features as the regions of west
ern Canada, Manitoba. Alberta, Sas-
katchewan; just as there, severe win
ter lasting six months is followed by
short transition period and a short
and warm summer.
South of western Siberia proper, be-
tween the fifty-ffth and forty-second
degree of latitude, extends the COVER
norship general of the steppe. whose
northern border is touched by the ST.
berian Trans Continental Out Of the
$50 900 English square miles taken up
| by these regions, the districts OF Akmo-
| linsk and Semipalatinsk (about $4,000
English square miles,, while having a
higher annual temperature, suffer. how
ever. from lack Of rainfall, SO that agri-
culture can be safely carried on with
out artificial irrigation only in the
northern border of this region, and also
| in the moister river valleys; but even
there the crops often suffer from
6roughts.
AS regards the agricultural possibili-
ties of eastern Siberia. or the provinces
Of Yenisseisk, Irkutsk and Yakutsk, 1t
must be said that the area available for
cultivation ia sven smaller there than
