LESS GOLD SOLD IN OREGON IS YEAR E WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. 20. Although the receipts from Oregon at the mint and smelters at San Francis co show a falling off In output of gold for that state of some $75,000 for the first five months of 1917, as compared with tho corresponding period of 1916, it la not an Indication that the mines, as a whole, are less prosperous this year than last says the U. S. geologi cal survey. While the general mineral Industry! of California has shown exceptional activity for the first six months of 1917, as compared with the conditions In the, first half of 1916, gold mining has been suffering a period of depres sion. The United States mint at San Francisco, and local smelters and re finers, are In receipt of about the same quantity of gold and silver in the first five months of 1917 as in the corresponding period of 1916, proving that no advance In output has been made, notwithstanding the opening of new gold mines and reopening of old ones.
