WRECKED FOR MONEY
PROOF THAT 4SlRIO WAS SUNK
= =, = = 10. HIDE ROBBERY.
STRONG BOX FOUND EMPTY
italy Asked to Find Mysterious Party
Which Landed While Ship
Was Sinking.

Cartagena, Spain, Oct. S.-Proof wa:
obtained Monday that the Italiar
steamer Sirio was wrecked to hide the
theft of 100000 from the vessels
strong box.
The Sirio sank off Romigas island in
August, and $50 lives were lost Sur
vivors, picked up at sea, told sickenins
stories of the last scenes on board the
doomed ship. Men and women fought
for the lifeboats, with oars as weap-
ons. The sailors escaped, but the
passengers perished.
Monday the strong box was found.
1t was hermetically sealed, but was
empty. For some time there had been
suspicion that the sailors had ritled
the box and them had deliberately sent
the ship to the bottom.
Whether the robbers actually es-
capped with the great load of gold IS
yet a mystery, but the authorities have
ascertained that a small boat landed
several men near the scene of the
from the wrecked steamer reached the
shore
1t Is believed they were the rob-
bers. and that they had the gold in the
boat and everything else in readiness
for departing from the steamer the
moment of the wreck, thus escaping
the panic and crush that followed. The
Italian government has been asked to
find these men.
The Sirio was wrecked during a
voyage from Italy to New York. It
carried several hundred Italian immi-
grants. In it's treasure hold was
strong, steel box, In which $500,000
was being transported to the United
States. The box was Theoretically
sealed on leaving the Italian port and
was supposed to be proof against rob-
bers, even if, perchance, they were
able to get it.
When the box was reached by the
divers the seals were found intact.
When the box was raised, however,
and the seals were broken, the gi-
gantic robbery was discovered. 1t is
believed the robbers figured that their
disappearance would raise no suspicion
If tle steamer was wrecked and others
were lost, and that they deliberately
drove the vessel on the rock.
The authorities have learned half a
dozen men escaped from the island
while the horror of the disaster was
or everybody's tongue.

and on one of the heaviest trav-
eled thoroughfares in that
county.

difference.
