REGAN'S GROUND
PROSPECTS WELL
Was Offered $25,000 for Ruby
Holdings a"d Refused to
Close Deal
Mall Regan, well known here,
writes to Al. Dowling from Ruby
creek, saying tlint while pay has
been found in widely scattered
areas of the new district, yet
comparatively little actual de
velopment work has yet been
done owing to the fact thai but
few Hubyilos had any nvoney or
outfits and that credit was very
hard to obtain. Quite a number
of locators who owned good pros
pects were compelled to leave the
camp temporarily in order to earn
«n grubstake with which I«> open
their properties. He says that he
l'ound good prospects in an as
sociation claim in which Mr.
Dowling is one of I lie locators
and expects to let a number of
lays on the ground in order to
have it opened up. <>n another
association claim a number of
holes have been sunk, hut no pay
found, although the ground pros
pects well, light pay having been
found a half mile above.
During the winter Regan re_
f -sed to bond his properly for
*25,000, ha\ ing been olVercd S I,
O00 down, lie says I hen* is new
pay being struck every few days
and says lie has great confidence
in I In- camp. There, are about

to he placed oil prospected ground
which runs from *i to sf» in |||<>

good pay has also been uncover
ed. Mr. Ilegan asks to be remem
bered to all his old Yaldez friends
and advises the boys to slay away
from Ruby until such limes, at.
least, as the camp is opened up.
