The Charles Foster to SuppIant the

ing, and will bring the Foster here

SEARCH FOR TREASURE.
An Expedition to COcOs Island to Find

An Expedition to Cocos Island to Find

From the Seattle Daily Times.
Fitting out in the port of Victoria, B. c.,
Is an expedition thousands of the like Of

ing for Kidd's booty. The destination Of
this expedition is Cocos Island. little
patch of land four miles square lying out
in the broad Pacific. $50 miles north Of the
equator and about $50 miles westward from
CaIlao. Peru. On this island, according to
Capt. Fred Hackett, who Is to command
the expedition, is buried In the neighbor-
hood of $32OOO,0O0. The tales Of how so
vast an amount of treasure comes to be
there take one back to the days Of the
struggle of the Spanish South American
deeds of the Spanish Main and bring from
out of the shadows Of the past crimes un-
known to the living generation Captain
Hackett was on the sound for two weeks
looking for a suitable vessel for his expe-
dition and finally heard OF the Blakeley. He
came and inspected her and closed for her
purchase from Captain Woodin Of this
city Immediately.
The Blakeley has an interesting history
of her own She was built on the sound
ley Mill Company, fitted with machinery
and used as a tugboat. Some years later
her owners took the machinery out Of her
and put her in the carrying trade to San
Francisco. Some sixteen years ago she
was engaged in a filibustering expedition
during the war between Chile and Peru,
and there are those who think she Is about
to engage In another of these ENTERPRISES
now instead of searching for stolen treas
ure. Two years ago she was purchased by
Captain Woodin Of this city and sent to
Nome with cargo Of lumber. She went
on the beach there during a storm. but was
saved from destruction.

Concerning the next democratic platform.
he thought 1t too early to forecast such a

plank would be included in the platform.
Regarding his own possible candidacy for
the presidency, Mr.. Bryan said he was not
candidate for anything.
Asked II he considered Mayor johnson
the logical candidate for the democratic
nomination In 1904 he said:
There Is nobody in the United States
who Is at present qualified to name the
democratic candidate. 1t would hardly be
proper for me to assume the right to dis
cuss any particular candidate at. present
This is because 1 am not prepared to dis
cuss the relative merits OF men who might
be associated with the democratic nomina-
ton. AS far as Mr. johnson is concerned
every well-informed man in the country
knows of him and his work, but when you

dier; he knows no other trade. As q farmer
the sheep is all in all to him, food and
clothing and companionship. He lives in a
hovel, does not understand why he should
be taxed and makes his women slave In
the fields. He is called close-fisted.
churlish and suspicious. and has some OF
the virtues that often go with those quail
ties. When Bulgaria became practically
free Of the sultan there were many Turks
left In the country. These are gradually
being crowded out, but there IL still a
mosque In Christian Sofia, and in the pal
ace of the Sobranje, or parliament, where
the members have better accommodations
than the lords Of Britain on the Thames
embankment. some twenty Turkish depu-
ties always sit together and exert an infiu-
ence that they never could do In their own
power. Every Saturday the members of
the Sobranje are paid at the rate Of Is

Choice of Routes.

Whether the United States should adopt
the Panama route or the one across Mica
ragua and Costa Rica is question to be
decided by considerations of cost of con-
struction and acquisition, expenses of
maintenance and operation, and of the use
fulness of the routes to the commerce of
the United States and foreign countries.
The engineering works of construction
would cost about S45 100000 less at Pan
ANA than at Nicaragua, but there Is no
reason to believe that the rights and prop
erty OF the Panama Canal Company could
be secured at price that would make the
cost or the Panama route less than the
cost or the Nicaragua canal. The eX-
penses of operation and maintenance are
In favor of the Panama location. A study
of this question by the commission indi-
Gates that these expenses would be about
S2OO0,OOO year for the Panama line and
about $3350.00O for the Nicaragua canal
Against this difference In expenses Of oper-
ating and maintaining are to be placed the
greater advantages of the Nicaragua route
as a highway for the commerce Of the
United States.
The Panama canal being 1900 miles IN
length. and the Nicaragua canal 1886
miles long, ship would be able to pass
through the former canal in less time than
1t would take to steam from Greytown to
-Brito. AS stated in the final report of the
commission. "The estimated time for

Former Heiress Abandoned by Hus.
band Arrested on Paris Streets.
Paris April 21.-Laura de Verneuil,
who was arrested Friday for vagrancy,
is only "a years of age. Five years ago
she married a young man of Boston
named Willard, who was earning a
modest salary as clerk in one of the
American banks in Paris.
Laura was a great heiress, the only
daughter of an aristocratic family in
the provinces. The match was opposed
by her parents, who disinherited her.
Three years afterward, when Willard
was finally convinced that his wife's
relatives would never relent, he cool
~ abandoned his wife, leaving a letter
saying that he had no fault to find
with her, but his salary was not suffi-
cient to keep both, and he had counted
on his wife having a fortune, which
was not forthcoming. He wished her
luck and returned to America. For the
last two years the poor woman, too
proud to return to her parents, had
sewed in various sweat shops" to sup
port herself Finally she fell sick and
a week ago was driven out of her
rooms, being unable to pay the rent.
When she was arrested she had been
wandering ceaselessly for two days
without food. Her parents were notifiel
of her arrest and came to her post
haste, but Laura, worn out and delir-
ious, is not able to be removed.
