Auckland Gold Returns.
DECREASE IN THE OUTPUT.
[BV TELEGBArn—PRESS ASSOCIATION.] Auckland, last night.
The Auokland gold returns for tho year 1900 reaohed a total of £635,033, as compared with £041,150 for the year 1899. This decrease must not be taken as a sign of deterioration, as it is more than accounted for by the fact that in 1899 a larger number of companies were engaged in ore treatment, most of which during tho year 1900 devoted their time to development, and consequently the output had more sources of supply in 1899 than in the year just closed. The dotaila furnished show no sign of a falling-off ip the returns from the great majority of the regular bullion producing mines, but an excellent average is being maintained. The year has been a very prosperous one.
