(UP)-An old Span ish gold mill, presumably used by the Spanish conqutstadores when they ranged the southwest In. search-of gold, haa been discovered on a lonely ridge north of here. The errastra, as it was termed by the Spaniards, apparently was work ed by forced Indian laborers, who trudged wearily around a circle, pull-'l lng a heavy beam which, in turn, dropped heavy boulders over the gold ore placed in a trough beneath them. The old mill was found by a pros pector. Robert Dnpuy. The arrastra. he Said, was at the top of a pass known to have been used by the Spanish adventurers 400 years ago. Dupuy said he believed the Span iards had a mine in the immediate vicinity of the arrastra. possibly pointed out to them by the Indiana they later enslaved. However, no truces of the mine were found, he said. He aaidlt was possible the Spaniards had abandon ed it end concealed evidence of Its presence, or that the Indians, en raged at their treatment, had killed the white men and then concealed the mine to prevent Its attracting other adventurers.
