GRAND CANYON GOLD LURES
Men Seek Riches Washed Into Bed Of
Colorado River for Centurtes-
Dre1ges Being Installed.

Denver. Colo.-Endeavors at last
are being made to compel the Grand
canyon of the Colorado to give up
the gold which has been washed into
Its bed for centuries. Several con-
Germs are preparing to conduct opera
lions on large scale to overcome OBJ
stacles to get these riches.
1t has long been known that there
was much gold in the bed of the Colo
RADIO canyon. Explorers who have
been in various parts Of the great
abyss have reported deposits of
gravel and black sand that apparent
ly ran to great depth and that prom
Used values. although we'll distributed
in the sand and gravel Attempts have
been made to interest capital in plans
to get out this wealth, but heretofore
there has been no success. because
propositions easier to get at and In
volving smaller expenditures of money
and risk have attracted most of the
capital available.
In recent years. however, several
syndicates have been formed to get
out the gold. One. backed by eastern
capital, has been at work for some
time at Lees ferry. This Is desolate
place. far from any railway. but 1t has
offered the best opportunity for such
work. being at the point where the
river runs out of the sand hills after
cutting through them for hundreds OF
miles and running for few miles
about at a level before dipping into
the marble canyon. Dredges have
been installed here after being hauled
far over the desert. Black sand i'm.
pregnated with gold and platinum and
gravel having small nuggets Of gold
in 1t have been found here. and the
enterprise promises to be highly prof
table. This sand and gravel runs to
a depth of from thirty to sixty feet
before bedrock is touched. and the
dredges can take 1t out in great guam
titles.
Above this point. in Utah. where the
cliffs are not high. similar operations
have been put under way. Here 1t is
said that the conditions are similar
to those found at Lees ferry, except
that there are evidences of even rich
er values. Parties have gone out into
the wild regions between these two
points to explore for places where the
river can be reached. Reports have
been received that wherever the pros
poets can be made conditions are
found favorable. Nature. however,
has provided huge battlements to de-
fend these riches. and there is doubt
whether many of the deposits can be
exploited probably.
