PIRATE TREASURE NOT FOUND
WeIi-Furnished Expedition Returns
Without the Riches II Had Been
In Search OF.

The ure-hunting party from
Plymouth, England. which has been
searching Cocos island in the Pacific
for treasure supposed to have been
buried there by pirates many years
ago, has arrived at Panama on board
the steamer Melmore without the
hoped for pirate spoils. The Melmore'
sailed from Barry in September last,
carrying in addition 10 the officers
and crew, two London ladies and
three gentlemen financially interested
in venture which was fondly hoped
to return 100 per cent. profit.
Two other unsuccessful attempts to.
locate the buried gold and jewels OF
the buccaneers made by Earl Fitz-
william and Mr.. Harold Gray did not
diminish the faith of the members OF
the Melmore expedition, who declared
they had specific information Of the
exact position Of the accumulated
