BURIED TREASURES ARE
SOUGHT, SELDOM FOUND
GOLD IN OKLAHOMA BURIED BY
MEXICANS-LOOT LEFT
BY JAMES GANG.
(New York Herald)

Another search is to be undertaken
to find the buried treasure OF gold
and silver in the Wichita mountains
of Oklahoma. For more than 70 years
this wealth of precious metal which
is said to have been secretly mined by
MeXicans and Indians and treated i'm
a crude mountain smelter, has lain
undisturbed despite the many fortune
hunting expeditions sent out to UNI
cover it. According to a Leedy, Okla
correspondent of the Kansas City
Stah this treasure is all the silver ore
that SO burros could carry and an the
gold that two burros could carry, and
it is buried at the end of two-hour
burro journey from the old smelter
Not all the buried treasure which
fortune hunters seek is in sold plate
and doubloons that went down with
the Spanish galleons or in gold and
precious stones won by pirates cut
lasses and cached along the coasts or
on desert islands Before the days Of
Captain Kidd Spanish and Mexican
Adventures were hiding their treas
ures from Indians 1.-the western
prairie or in the mountains of the
southwest. Before men began search
ing for Pirate Lafittes iron bound

or Colorado mountains 90 save it from
red and white desperadoes.
In Imperial Valley.
TO the days of the Spanish occupa-
ton belongs the tradition of the gold
buried by Francisco dc Bonilla and
Antonio Gutierrez de Humuana. The
documents left by these explorers and
recently found in the Imperial valley
described the place where they con-
cealed their wealth when attacked by
Indians but the region has so chang
ed that the description has proved Of
little value to the hundreds who have
searched for the treasure. To these
days also belongs the tradition Of
Devils Den, near Natoma, Kas, ac-
cording to which jewels and 100000
in gold stolen in 1S49 in the city of
Mexico were concealed in this Kan
sas cave. Many fruitless searches, It

PLATINUM PRODUCTION
UNITED STATES SMALL
ALL CAME FROM CALIFORNIA
AND oREeoN-CoLoMBlA
OUTPUT LARGE.

The production of crude platinum
in California and Oregon in 1928 was
slightly less than in 1922, when zoos
ounces were produced according to
the department of the interior as in
dicated by estimates made by the ge-
illogical survey. Most of the domes-
tic crude platinum is mined by gold
dredges in California, although the
production of gold by the dredges was
somewhat greater in 1923 than in
1922, which indicates that an increas-
ed yardage was handled, the Platinum
recovered seems to have been less,
owing to the fact that one of the larg
est platinum producing dredges work
ed out its ground and was shut down
in midsummer
Clombia Plaeers.
Reports from Russia indicate that
the production of platinum probably
increased a little as compared with
1922. The output of Colombia in 1928
was probably about 10000 ounces. The
South American Gold & Platinum
company operated three dredges and
its hydroeiectric installation was
practically completed The British
Platinum & Gold corporation used on
~ one of its boats but made a good
output. The low price of ivory nuts,
(the fruit of the tagua palm) and the
low water encouraged the natives to
do more placer mining than usual
which augmented the output of plat
mum in Colombia In South Africa
a new platinum field was investigated
by competent engineers, and two com
panies have been organized TO devel-
op the deposits discovered i'm the
Waterbury district of the Transeaal
Large tSocks First Of Year.
Fortunately the domestic stocks of
platinum metals at the beginning of
1928 were large, amounting to 1890
ounces of platinum, 1853 ounces of ir-
idium. and 2A975 ounces of palladium.
so that the imports i'm 1923 were not
so great as i'm 1922. Imports for the
first nine months of 1928 indicate
that the total receipts for the year
were about 10000 ounces of platinum,
1900 ounces of iridium and 1900
ounces of palladium, as compared
with 949S9 ounces of platinum, 1899
ounces of iridium and 1854 ounces of
palladium in 1922. Apparently be-
cause of the large stocks. the supply
of platinum metals available for use
in 1928 was nearly equal to that in
1922
Platinum was quoted at S11O an
ounce the first of the year and at $125
an ounce IN thc closing months, sales
during most of the year being made
at about SIG an ounce. Iridium main
tanned its high price of 1910 to $500
an ounce, and the price of palladium
remained at $50 an ounce, practically
unchanged.

is said, were made for these treasures
by Mexicans and Kansans. It 81 sup
posed still to be awaiting a finder.
The buried treasure Of gold and sill
Yer in the Wichita mountains, Okla
homa dates back to this period The
Mexicans. according to the Oklaho-
mans. forced the Indians to work for
them until the red men rose in rebel
lion against their taskmasters. The
Mexicans escaped with their precious
metal and buried it when the Indians
attacked them. Only one Mexican
survived the battle with the Indians
and he left to his grandson a chart
which the present seekers hope will
locate the buried treasure Ter them.
In Kansas.
For more than a half century for
tune seekers have been digging along
a stream in Rice county Kansas for
"a pot of gold hidden by a party Of
'49ers returning from California. The
pot contained the mems combined
hoard of gold. which they buried
along the old Santa Fe trail when a
band of Comanches attacked them.
The one survivor Of the party re-
turned to Rice county and spent sew
eral weeks in a search for the gol l..
His failure to find it did not discour-
age several hundred other persons
from searching for it,
A box containing $4,000 is suppos.
ed to have been buried by an army
paymaster in Kingman county, Kan
sas 60 years ago. The paymaster and
his escort were killed by Indians in
ambush An expedition headed by A.
c. Hennessey of Oklahoma failed to
locate the box in 1900, but every sum-
mer since a search for it has been
undertaken by a more or less well or
ganized party one report says that
it was found a year ago by cowboy.
Found Gold in Cave.
A strange story was brought to
Oklahoma City by an old hunter who
asked for a grub stake to search for a
treasure cave in the Indian country of
the southeastern part of the state He
declared that this cave contained five
barrels of gold coin which he believed
was stolen from the Spanish govern
ment i'm Texas The thieves fought
over it until the last man was killed.
The old trapper died before his story
could be Investigated without leaving
la further clue to the location of the
treasure cave.
Loot Of Train Robbers.
Bandits and train and bank robbers
figure in many hidden treasure stor-
les of the west For years it was said
that the bank of the Little Blue near
Independence was dug over by seek
ers for loot buried by the James gang
The scene was transferred two or
three years ago to Indian Springs, on
the Kansas side, and thrifty farmer
made a neat little amount by renting
digging rights for S25 and half of the
treasure if found" It is generally be-
lieved that loot taken from a train in
one of the James early raids in Okla
homa was really found by a member
of the gang near Tulsa 25 years after
ii was cached. Another reported find
of bandits wealth was the uncovering
of a pot of gold year ago along the
old Chisholm trail near Lexington,
Okla.
