Texas. April 4. Governor' Milliam A. Ferguson tonight said that she did not remember the case of Gregorio Guerra of Laredo, who received a proclamation granting restoration of his citizenship when he had not been tried or convicted for any offense, but that she was certain the proclamation must have been misdirected and reached the wrong man.

Keating and his party returned to Los Angeles on Friday night. For tho present, visitors to the camp should take their own water and food.

Claim holders camped on their claims. White tents could be seen for miles. Locators' stakes and monuments are in rows upon rows across the hills and extending for a distance of nearly seven miles north and south of the Herkelrath claims. Kramer Hills' highway is paved with gold. thought one ambitious but probably inexperienced locator who erected a monument and drove stakes in the county's gravel pit, where gravel for grading roads is excavated.

"It's government land, by golly," the locator said defiantly, "and you can't tell what's down there under the ground." Emery B. Tyler, San Bernardino attorney, is "in the money." Two claims adjoining the Herkelrath property were located for Mr. Tyler by Ed Herkelrath. Values are soaring and Mr. Tyler has fixed his price.

The lone ice cream peddler was a forlorn figure. Standing behind a wooden box, he nearly froze when a light, misty rain began falling. Wrapped to the neck in his overcoat, he continued to shout: "Ice cream. The only place In the camp where Ice cream, is sold." Gold Is wherever you find It; and so are hot dogs.

"Oh, I can't tell everyone who I am, for I am simply pestered to death with foolish questions," she bald. "A woman stopped here this morning and wanted to know how in the world I live away out here.

"The tide of popular resentment and revolt Is flowing even more rapidly than I then anticipated," Dr. Butler said. "Even tho politicians and the office holding class who pride themselves upon their sensitiveness to public opinion, but who are. In fact, usually the last to understand it, are everywhere running to cover.

Communication Sorely Needed "If this camp is to have a great boom, then there will be vast business possibilities. San Bernardino should get a truck line established and likewise make arrangements to have a telephone station opened at the camp. Tho telephone line runs right through tho camp." Thfi route from San Bernardino Is via the Ca.ion pass to the Adel-anto-Randsburg road, about three miles north of Summit. Tills is CS miles of pavement. The remaining 41 miles Is a dirt road.

To Adel-anto the dirt road is in excellent condition. North out of Adelanto there is a rolling stretch that is sandy. Then there are alternating pieces of good and bad road. It is what would be called a fair road, but apparently much better than the route via Mojave, which, judging from the criticisms of travelers, is in very poor condition. Mr.

lKran and other San Bernardino men denied that the Herkeiraths had refu-ed permission to mining enjlneers to go down the shaft.

S. Cunningham, Santa l''e traveling freight uncut, who returned from the gold camp yesterday after spending a week at. that point making a survey of the new gold strike.

In the territory described, the vein of gold ore Is more than 15 feet wide, he declared. The ore is a composite of rliyolite and porphyry, the lack of quartz shattering the theory of perma nancy for the. camp. Ore ill to $3,000 Ton There may be other rich strikes in the Kramer district, asserts Cunningham, but the main vein Is at least three miles long and although the formation is a rliyolite it is rich in gold ore tlif.t will go as high as J3.000 a ton. The dumps alone, he declared, will net from $35 to $50 a ton.

In the opinion of the Santa Fe traffic official, the Kramer camp Is due for one of the biggest booms since the early mining days. "During the week I spent In making a survey and study of the mining conditions at Kramer I saw considerable high grade ore in tho six shafts that have been sunk up until this time," said Cunningham. Proposed, to Put Shaft 45 1ct The Herkelrath property Including 340 acres has a main shaft down to a depth of 65 feet. It is proposed to go 75 feet in order to reach tho main vein and to cut rifts In four directions. Surveyors, mining engineers and financial interests from Los Angeles are at.

the camp and several large deals are expected to be made during the coming week, it was predicted by Cunningham. The Herkelrath mine is nine and one-half miles southeast from Kramer or three and one-half miles south from Jimgrey, a Santa Fe siding. Improvements are being made and plans have already been started for a hotel. Water has been secured by drilling to a depth of 400 feet and will he piped to the Herke'rath mine, a distance of one and one-half miles.
