Russell E. Dunn, a mining engineer, who has juat returned from Slberia, declares that the mineral wealth at the head waters ol the Amur rlver Is very large. He developed some mining properties for a French syndicate in the mountains from which flow four streams that feed the Amur. Near that place placer miners were taking out iortunes that make the Klondike seem poor. Out of one gulch not over two miles long coarse gold and nuggets amounting to $10,000,000 were taken. The country is no place for prospectors, however, as only a company can get a concession. AU placer mines are worked by the government.
