md other oriental products. There
was no treasure aboard as at first re
ported.
OF 200 sacks of mail only IL have
come to the surface. An investiga-
ton into the loss of the steamer will
probably be held this week. Graham
Coghlan, the senior surviving officer
of the i'll fated vessel, called on Cap
