The Mount Holly news. [volume] (Mount Holly, Burlington Co., N.J.) 1891-1942, 1907-12-10

There have recently been unpleasant
revelations as to the extent to which
the stealing Of gold by the miners is
carried on in Australia. Some authori-
ties estimate that as much as a million
pounds worth of gold is lost every year
by the Australian mining companies
in this way. Most Of the mining CEN
tiers are haunted by a shady class of
nominal gold buyers" who are really
the accomplices of the dishonest min
ers. the fences In criminal slang.
Representatives of the mining compa-
MES in Bendigo, where a record num-
Der of cases of gold stealing have re-
Gently occurred, have met in confer
ence to consider the best means of
dealing with the evil. AS one way Of
checking the evil, it was decided to es-
tablish register of all the miners en-
ployed in the Bendigo district, so that
the movements and migrations of dis
missed or reasonably suspected men
might be traced and observed. In this
way it Is hoped to prevent the thieves
getting employment In other mines.-
