BAN ON VISITORS
LUCKY GOLD MINERS OPERATIONS DELAYED (Pur Press Association.) DUNEDIN, last; night. Messrs. Percy Bell and William Kilgour, since they struck it rich at Cromwell, have many visitors and progress consequently has been slow. The men have aiot had the opportunity of getting but. any quantity of dirt, but loz. to the dish lias not boon an uncommon return. On Thursday, for a broken day—one of the partners being absent all the morning—the wash-up was 9oz. ISdwt., making a. total for three days of 20ioz. The miners have now wisely decided that in future visitors will not be admitted.
“This continued entertaining of visitors is delaying our work,” said Mr 801 l yesterday. ‘‘Our output is not what it could be, and we are handling less than half the dirt we should be.”
