SPOKANE MEN WILL

SPOKANE, WASH. July 19. (P)
 R. w. Elsom and F. M Handy,
 mining engineers, have returned
 from the Lardeau district in B. O.,
 where R. w. Elsom and Co.,, of
 Spokane have acquired 10 miles of placer ground following MT.
 Handy's favorable report.
 There are from 1O0,000,00 to
 125, 100000 yards of dredgeable
 gravels in this property along the
 Lardeau river and I estimate that the values run from g to 50 cents per yard, in gold with some plat inum," said MT. Handy. Fifteen cent yardage is profitable. These large gravel beds are estimated to average from 50 to so feet thick. They are so situated as to be workable by any sluicing method but are ideal for dredg- ing. Modern dredges have devel- oped an efficiency of 12,000 to 15,00O yards per day and to a depth of 84 feet below the water line"
