SANFRANCIsCo, Jan. Gloon tract
ors employed in government construc-
tlon work on Goat island unearthed
eight skeletons. IL Is a mystery how
they came there, and there are several
wild stories anoat. One is that Goat
island, which Is now government
reserve, was the haunt Of pirates, aud
that much buried treasure Is hidden
on the island. Another is that the
island was used by the Spanlards In
the early days as a battle-ground.
Several attempts have been made TO
locate the hidden treasure, but with
out success. The unearthed are Of
enormous proportions, few being less
than six feet six inches long.
