IT'S THE MIL WAUKEE
OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT IS
MADE AT CHICAGO.
Puget Sound Extension Adopted and
a Double North Bank Track
to Portland.

The secret Of the Wallula Pacific
railroads intentions are made public
i'll an announcement which comes
from Chicago.
At special meeting of the direc-
tors of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul Railroad company the board
formally authorized the building of
the st. Paul extension to the Pacific
Coast from Evarts, S. D., to Seattle
and Tacoma. It was specified in the
official announcement that the work
of construction is to begin forthwith.
1t is estimated that the cost will be
about $50, 100000.
It was announced at the close Of the
meeting that as yet no plans had been
determined ON for financing the pro-
ject. This matter, in all probability,
will be decided upon at meeting of
the executive committee. 1t is under
stood that an issue of convertible
bonds has been under consideration,
but that there is no likelihood of an
increase in the roads capital stock,
about $40, 900, 900 of which is still un-
issued.
Preparations already have been
made for the Incorporation of new
railroad company from Evarts, which,
however, will be entirely financed by
the st. Paul.
While all the details of the route
have not been decided on, the line
will run toward the Rocky mountains
through Lolo pass and ultimately CON
Meeting at Wallula Wash, the ter
minus of the recently incorporated
Pacific railroad, which runs to that
point from Seattle.
The 0regonian says: 1T has been
stated on what seems to be authentic
information that the Northern Pacific
will construct double track down
the north bank of the Columbia river
from Wallula, WASH, into Portland.
Over this line trains of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and st, Paul will run
under a trackage agreement. This
plan fills in the last link in the cham
of the projected Chicago, Milwaukee

from New York yesterday, which out

TREASURE ISLAND.
Company Has Been Formed In Seattle to
Hunt for Hidden Riches.

Company Has Been Formed In Seattle to
Hunt for Hidden Riches.
Millions are involved in a treasure
search to be instituted by company
which has just organized at Seattle.
The company is known as the Cocas
Island Hydraulic and Treasure com
pany aud has been incorporated under
the laws of the state of Washington.
The incorporators are Captain Fred
Hackett, of Vancouver, B. c.; John
w. Lamar, James A. Steele and
Samuel E. Squires. Their object is to
recover the lost Peruvian millions,
A rich reward is offered to the man
who invests in the stock of the COM
pany, according to the incorporators
statements. For every 500 invested
the confiding sucker" is to receive
$32, 900 i'll real money. according to
them. The company expects to find
just $32, 900, 900 altogether. They ex-
pect to find all this money along the
coast of Central and South America
on Cocas Island. The Cocas Island
proposition was started in 1891, when
a Spanish galleon started out in the
Pacific Ocean, was overhauled by the
British man. of war Devonshire, which
was then pirate. After the treasure
was taken off the i'll fated Spanish YES
sci it was buried ON Cocas Island, and
there it is still supposed to be.
The company expects to uncover
this treasure in a short time. The
other part of the millions was the
property of Peru, and during the
Chilian war it was taken ons board a
vessel and later transferred to another
vessel which stole it. The treasure
was buried on Cocas Island, which is
getting to be a great place to bury
treasure. Those who buried the stolen
treasure were killed by the Peruvians,
but one man by some miraculous man
ner got away. He was followed all
over the world by Peruvians, who
wanted his death blood. A man
named Keating helped him out of a
scrape and to him was told the secret
of the island. This man made two
trips to the island, according to the
story, and brought back plenty of
money. This money was left with
Thomas Hackett, the brother of the
man who is organizing the company.
Captain Hackett says he has been
on the island but the exact place is
buried under landslide. This is
where the hydraulic pant of the com
pany is to help them get the treasure.
Several expeditions have been sent
to the island by interested people, but
the treasure is as Elusive as Captain
Kidd's.

After consulting with, Judge w. B.
Gilbert of the United States circuit
court at Portland, it was partially
arranged that Judge Wolverton should
begin his duties as United States dis
trict judge early next week. probably
by Tuesday or Wednesday, as there
is heavy grist of business awaiting
him. He has said that he will not
appoint new clerk of bis court until
after his confirmation by the senate,
and perhaps not for some little time
thereafter. He will probably join in
handing down several decisions by
the supreme court next Monday and
partly clear up the pending cases.
