QUEST FOR BURIED GOLD
PARTICIPATION BY BANK. Paris, Oct." 3. The Russian newspaper Resurrection reports that a big Paris bank is participating in a treasure hunt in Central Siberia. A group of four men, the newspaper says, is negotiating with the bank, claiming to know the whereabouts of 20,000,090 roubles (£1,000,000), said, to have been in the possession of Admiral Koltchak, “White Russia’s” leader, when he was executed by the Bolsheviks. Knltehak’s friends buried the gold. The group is negotiating for the sale of a half share, the other half, under Soviet law, going to the Soviet. The bank is reported to have sent a special mission to Moscow to investigate the group’s story and to negotiate with the Soviet.
