Immense Fortunes Known to Be Buried
Beneath Seas Waves.
From jewelers. Circular Weekly.
Readers have heard of the search under

ish government, and the treasure discov-
cred In the Russian admirars ship. sunk
at Tcherman at the time of the nava, bat
tie of ITO. when the Turkish feet was COM
pletely destroyed.
The search has continued with striking
success. These fortunate divers have be-
come rich, but the Turkish government has
also obtained some large amounts, mas
much as 1t has reserved for itself the lions
share.
The fact is that the Russian vessel. which
sank in a depth of thirty fathoms. abounds
In pieces. of gold and silver. At first the
divers only paid attention to the former, of
which they found full sacks. These pieces
are mostly single. double and quadruple
ducats.
1t has already been announced that on
the first shipment to Constantinople the
divers obtained for their part the sum of
276,NOO francs. The daily work of the div
ers amounts to from 5000 to 10000 pieces
of gold. special boat of the admiralty,
manned by officers of the Turkish navy
and by a government inspector, Is sta
toned continually at this point Each sack
drawn from the water is registered, the
pieces cCunleu anu a receipt given 10 tne
divers.
1t appears that the bottom of the sea is
strewn with silver pieces, which have the
dimensions and the weight of French
crowns of five francs. Besides this money,
the divers have drawn up various other
precious objects. gold and silver crosses.
Jewels. images, swords, canes, especially
an evangel, of which the binding of gold
is Ornamented with precious stones of great
value.
This is not the first time that such en-
terprises have been undertaken for the pur-
pose Of discovering riches buried in the sea.
but they have seldom yielded the desired
results. 1t would be difficult to give even
a summary of the innumerable fortunes
engulfed. Among others an English bark.
which foundered in 1893 on the coast of
Holland. had on board ingots of gold and
silver valued at about thirty millions, of
which very small part was recovered.
The Royal Charter went down near the
Moelfram with cargo worth two millions.
The greatest fortune engulfed was in the
shipwreck OF a French sailing vessel on the
coast of Trafalgar. 1t carried a ton and a
half of gold plates and five tons of silver
plates, whose destination was the famous
Cathedral of St Jean de Matte. There
stones, designed to embelish some relics
contained in the cathedral, well to
adorn various religious objects belonging
to chevaliers of the order and kept by
them in their chapel.

RACING WITH A MOOSE.
A Maine Man Well Mounted Tries to
Run It Down and Fails.

From the Bangor Commercial
Ernest G. Judkins, bookkeeper for the
Kineo Company. had a remarkable expert
ence with bull moose on the carriage road
to Deer Head farm two miles from Kineo.
|, Mr.. Judkins was taking morning ride,
galloping along a level stretch, when the
horse came to standstill with jolt and
snort. Looking ahead, Mr.. Judkius saw
bull moose feeding ON the tender sprouts
of the bushes growing by the roadside, not
sixty yards away. Mr.. Judkins' first i'm
pulse was to ride the moose down. but he
thought better of this and hooted TO attract
the animals attention. and possibly to
frighten him from the road, SO that he
could proceed, but the moose fed calmly on
At the end Of few minutes the beast
moved down the road in search of more
food. and Mr.. Judkins followed at a re-
spectful distance, hooting until his throat
was hoarse, but he might just as well have
whispered as far as the moose was con-
cerned. This proceeding was repeated over
half a mile Of road.
|: At the end of that distance the moose
faced about and began feeding toward the
horse and rider casting unconcerned
look In their direction every now and then,
and Mr.. Judkins' steed did the backstep
for a few rods. This was little too much
Tor the horseman and, becoming impatient,
he gave tremendous yell to attract the
attention OF the moose, which was success
1ul, plunged spurs into the horse, and
made for the impudent highwayman, pell
nell.
With the first leap of the horse the indif-
ference Of the moose changed to concern,
and turning abruptly about, he started
down the road at a great. clumsy trot.
This put new and interesting phase to
the situation, and urging on his horse Mr..
Judkfns proceeded to have his turn at the
sport. only hoping that the moose would
keep to the road. The moose obliged in
THIS particular and the horse was a good
one and entered into the spirit of the chase
but try as he could the distance between
him and the fleeing animal did not lessen
materially.
Il never saw anything like it, said Mr..
Judkins to the correspondent. That great,
ungainly animal trotting on ahead as clum-
SHY as a razor-back runs, and maintaining
his lead with apparently no effort what
ever, while my horse was logging it for all
that was in him. 1 had heard that moose
had speed, but when I started after that
bull would have laid 10 to / odds that l
could overhaul him inside of 200 yards
that could have ridden all around him.
After a hot race covering fully half
mile, the moose turned into the forest and
disappeared. From the 18th on Mr. Jud-
kfns will carry carbine when he rides.

Resolution introduced At Meet
Ing Of Aldermen Last Night
Ito Sell II.
ACTION GOES OVER.
AIderman-at-Large Eckert Makes Strong
Speech Against the Resolution Says
II Is Unlust-Dr. Ramsay Tells Some
Of hIs Side Of the Natter Much
Money Paid to WorkIngmen.

An unsuccessful effort was made at
the meeting of the Board of Aldermen
last night to have resolution passed
whereby the Wet Dock property could
be sold. the city relinquishing all
rights OF claims to the title of the
land. Ihe resolution was introduced
by Alderman Cannon, who afterward
said he had not investigated the mat
ter, but had only introduced the reso-
luton to get the question before the
aldermen.
The resolution was bitterly opposed
by Alderman Eckert. In speaking on
the matter he said
"This resolution is one of the most
iniquitous acts that has ever been
perbetrAted in the city. Sixty CT
seventy years ago that land was Writ
ualIy stolen from the city. Before
this is passed l desire the citizens to
know what that tract is. 1t is COM
posed of so acres Of the most valuable
land in the city and it is proposed by
that resolution to vote it away. When
Jersey City and Elizabeth are both
striving for some of their water front
we. by passing that resolution, would
be virtually throwing ours away. +"
Mr.. Eckert's motion to have the
resolution laid over was passed with
out further remarks.
DIR. W. e. Ramsay. a member OF
the Perth Amboy Engineering and
Shipbuilding Company, which now
controls the land, said this morning,
that their title to the property had
been favorably passed upon by the
best lawyers of the State. He declared
that it had been leased for 80 years
with the privilege of new lease for
i the same time for an annual rental OF
81.
DR.. Ramsay showed where over
81 900, 900 had been paid to the work
ing men of this city in wages since
the Ramsays took hold of the plant
and asked which was doing the most
good, thousands of dollars to the
laboring men, or vacant property in
the name of the city?
DR.. Ramsay says if something is not
done by the aldermen to settle the
matter his company will proceed fur
ther to end the dispute.

not exceeding $25, 900. when seen
would say little, but it was evident
he was doing lots of thinking. Mr..
Cannon is determined that his hard
work at Trenton shall not amount to
nothing and it is possible he will

for publication it would not be sur
