-By Telegraph — Copyright).
Sydney, Nov. 22. Mr. C. G. Gibson, a S,ydney mining engineer and geologist, expressed the view, following what he termed a good general overhaul of the country, that the Granites goldfield in Central Australia 'was an absolute washout." He added that nearly all the Victorian companies interested in the field had abandoned their options. A message from Alice Springs says that unemployed men, wliose resources have been exhausted in an attempt to reach the Granites, are increasing in number there. They are anxiously awaiting a reply from Canberra to their requests for free railway passes to return to Adelaide.
