Nov. 4 Wil liam Grady, who started the gold Htampede to the Casslar district of Ilritish Columbia last spring and who has arrived in Sfitile with i poke containing $10,000 worth of gold. the result of two months work on his claim, is II k?* * lie li*- ; tie lioy who hroke his drum to see what made the noise. The. loea- 1 tion of a paying spoiled al. hi* fun. j "The thrill is in the hunt" said Grady. "Mining itself is no fun. It is Rood hard work. It's the fev erish pursuit of something allur ing. always ahead beckoning you. which makes gold hunting worth while." Preferring adventure and eitemeul to mere wealth Grady Is thinking seriously of disposing of his Interests in Gold Pan Creek nextvsprlng so he can have the fun of locating more gold. "I know there is plenty on my claim to maki' me rich for life." he says, "hut its finding lias taken away the zest of adventure." The bright lights, cafes, and theaters of the city do not inter est the lucky prospector. Fresh from the enjoyment of the most exciting game In the world, the search for gold, everything e|n?* Mcenis to pale into insignificance. Now that he can enjoy ease and luxury he longs to he back once mure on the rugged uncertain trail. Grady and his partner. Hugh Ford, discovered Yellow metal on Gold Pan Creek iu the autumn, of 102-1. but owing to the cold weath er they wcro unable to begin op erations until last spring. Word of the discovery spread and start ed a rush which threatened to be come a stampede. Grady pro nounces gold pan creek not the richest field he has seen, but one that will produce plenty of money. During fifty days he says he took out gold at the rate of about $30 per shovel. II I c; II OFFICIALS ARE NOT SUMMONED Washington. Nov. 4. ?

AIR INQUIRY i BADLY NEEDED Colonel Mitchell Expects to Show Public That Hi* Charges Caused Presiden tial Action FIGHT TO FINISH Flying Colonel Believes He Can Succeed if Presi dent's Secretary Pro duces Correspondence lly ItOllKRT T. SMAI.I, I?Z?. TH. Atvtaetl Washington. Nov. 4.? The real secret of the Mitchell defense Ih out at last. The fly in k colonel is seek lug permission to prove if he ran that the "offeusea" for which he I* being tried by general court martial, moved President Coolidge to institute the general air In quiry under the direction of Iiwlght F. Morrow, classmate of the President, and member of the firm of J. P. Morgan and Com pany. Colonel Mitchell will show, if; he can. that far from bringing the military service Into disrepute or public contempt, his statements given to the press at San Antonio., contained so much of the elements! or truth as to Impress the Prea- j ldent with the vital necessity off sifting the aviation problem In the 1 most thorough manner possible i Colonel Mitchell believes he 1 can prove this contention if Ev erett Sanders, secretary to the | President, is directed to produce j before the court martial all of the correspondence between Mr. Cool idge and Mr. Morrow. Failing to J obtain the presence of the Presi- ; dent's secretary. Colonel Mitchell j believes he can get the necessary proof from Mr. Morrow himself. In further substantiation of the truth of his chargea Colonel Mitch ell would introduce In. proper form virtually all of the evidence given before the Morrow board. Colonel Mitchell and hla coun sel are confident that if they can prove by certain letters of the President that the Colonel was In strumental In bringing about the Morrow inquiry, they will con vinced the country. If not the court martial, that the flying colonel Is being made a "scapegoat" by the persons most involved In his charges of neglect and incompe tenre in the handling of the coun-] try's aviation services. Already the defense has shown by a military witness for the pros ecution that nothing Colonel Mitchell did in Texas caused riots, mutiny, secession, slaughter or mayhem. When It was brought out that the fiery statements failed to do any of these things the expression on Colonel Mitch ell's fare was a study. It was dif ficult to tell whether he registered satisfaction or disappointment. Hut whatever disappointment he may feel as to the lack of sensa tion created In the eighth army ,v>rt>n area around San Antonio, is more than made up for by the ex plosion which resulted In Wash ington and which was recorded on nelsinographs as far away as the Antipodes. It will be recalled that in sum moning the Presidential board of Inquiry, the first official state ment by Chairman Morrow an nounced that Colonel Mitchell would be heard In full. This state ment Is regarded by the defense as further evidence that Presi dent Coolldge was galvanised Into action by the Mitchell charge*. It Is the desire of the defense to prove that the President ex ' pects great constructive good to come of his airplane Inquiry, and It Is proposed that Colonel Mitch ell shall get the credit for bring ; Ing about this constructive move. Then It will be asked how he can ho condemned as destructive by one bit of government machinery and extolled In effect, by another bit of machinery for doing the country a great service. It has been the effort of the court martial not to concern Itself ; with the good effects of the Mitch ell statement but to consider only Its possible gnawing effect Upon military discipline. In other words there Is not so much a disposition In Washington to quarrel with what Colonel Mitchell may have had In mind, but It la the nasty i way In which he did It. And It Is further claimed the Colonel knew he was doing It In the nastiest pos sible way. for. after giving out the statement, he told the reporters he expected to be placed under ai7 rest toute de suite," as they uaed i to say In fhe A.
