London Syndicate Seeks
 Treasure Sunk 100 Years
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Apr. 13-Searching for sunken treasure in Navarino Bay, off the Greek coast, where a fleet of Turco-Egyptian and Tunisian ves- sels went down nearly hundred years ago, was begun recently by a London syndicate of insurance brok- CTS. Specially designed salvage ships were sent to the scene with the hope of being able to carry out their pur- pose. Members of the expedition have come to London for additional supplies and diving apparatus and, according to their reports, 63 ships were lost on which there were gold, precious stones and statuary which the Turks had removed from Greek towns.
 The treasure had been taken on board the fleet for transport to Tur- key when Admiral Codrington in 1927 engaged the vessels in battle and sank most of them. The bay where the work has been started is about four miles square, with rocky bottom and a maximum depth of water of approximately 1S0 feet. It has been estimated, however, by divers, that the sunken ships have been covered with several feet of mud washed down with the waters from nearby mountains. A conces- sion for carrying on the salvage op- erations was granted by the Greek government, which is to get from 15
 to 20 per cent of the proceeds of l the expedition.

Son Tells How Dying
 Father Liued Another
 World Several Days
FAMILY REFUSES TO DlVULGE RECORD OF WORDS SPOKEN BY MINISTER WHO APPARENT. " AWOkE FROM DEATH.

ROCHESTER, N. r., Apr. 11.-How his father awoke to life after his family believed him 9ad and for several days thereafter, until death actually occurred, lived in another world has been told by the Reverend Albert w. Beaven, of this city. The mans father was the Rev. Samuel W. Bcaven, D. D.
 Relatives of the dead man said that he apparently died and then re- tuned to life, believing that he was living in another world. He des. crihed to his family the beauties and ,r,.es of living in the cth.'. word th2 ssa said, and the wC.ls were recorded. The son refused to make known the statements of his father however.
 Relatives do not believe that the Rev. MT. Beaven died at first but they are confident he really saw the beauties of another world. The Rev. MT. Beaven described his ex- perience after several days of sus. pended animation which at first led the family to believe him dead, it was said.

Euen the Pay Increase Won't Get the Solons
 Into the 400" Glass
RARELY CAN A SOLON AFFORD TO TRAVEL WITH THE ELITE, THOUGH HE GETS $10,000 A YEAR.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Apr. H. That $2,500 a year pay increase may help out with the campaign expenses and apartment rent, but there is one thing it won't do for nine out of every ten senators and representa- tives in Washington. It won't get them into real Washington society.
 Except for mere sprinkling in both houses, the men sent to Wash ington to help run the government seldom get into the inner social circle. Usually the trouble is a lack of funds necessary to play the so- cial game. The $2,500 a year raise would hardly hire social secretary, the first essential for any one wish ing to break into society.

He stated that the tourist trade to Alaska was dis cussed and they are planning to han dle any sizen party expeditiously and cheaply. MT. Cunningham and family visited a short while in Portland, his former home. Mrs. Cunningham and two children are now in Portland and will return north about May l.
 Active work will start near Seward just as soon as the snow is of the ground, said MT. Cunningham.

The shortage in the 1924 corn
crop was a final blow to the indus
try, already Frustrated, and l be-
lieve cost the cattle producers of
the West from $40 to $40 per head
on their feeding cattle, that were
sold at market during 1924.
The financial difficulties of the
various big packers, also hurt the
cattle market and the many failures
of various cattle loan companies
has made it difficult to carry cattle
paper. We have little faith, how
ever, in any of the proposed Gov
eminent financial institutions being
much help to the producer.
Another element that is hurting
beef is the weight of the immense
hog receipts. For the seven big
markets in 1924, hogs totaled 3d.
651,S8r as compared with 1872
0ol in 1914. While it is true that
there are large exports of pork
products, still some of this excess
pork displaces beef in this country.
In the mean time I believe a big
old-fashioned corn crop will do
more towards putting cattle back on
the map than all else combined.
Notwithstanding the high price of
orn, cattle-feeders are reported to
rave done we'll as a rule in the past
tx months, but this has been gen.
rally due to getting the feeders at
DIV prices. Young cattle have had
decided preference.
Cotton Prospects
The outstanding features of the cot
on situation this Spring have been
he drought in Oklahoma and Texas
nd the high volume of exports.
Rainfall has come in the southwest
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1925-05-19

in the last two' weeks, sufficient to
greatly improve conditions and the
effect has been seen in lower prices.
Even yet, however, there is question
whether moisture enough is in storage
to carry the plant through the sum-
mer heat and dry weather In the
absence of that supply the dependence
must be upon timely rains through
out the season, and experience is that
large crops are not often produced
under these conditions. Elsewhere in
the cotton country the soil conditions
are good. An increase in the use of
fertilizer is predicted. The acreage
is estimated by Jay & Co. at 1880
600, against 100000 in 1924, which
was the largest acreage on record.
Summing up, crop prospects are ex-
cellent except that Texas prospects
are handicapped by less than the usual
Winter and Spring rainfall.
Exports continue to run we'll above
those of the corresponding weeks OF
last year. Since August 1st last the
excess has been approximately $780,
900 bales. With domestic consump-
ton and exports at high rate it
looks as though the carry-over July
31st would be little if any larger than
last year. Speculative opinion, how
ever, of late has tended to the view
that there will be cotton enough at
the prevailing price; in other words,
that the price of cotton goods is linn
iting consumption and that higher
prices would limit it still more. The
recent rains have had the effect of
depressing prices, which are now IN
der "a cents.
Decline in Wool
The wool market has been weaker
in recent weeks, the chief influence
apparently being evidence that the last
Australian crop has not been moving
as readily as was expected. When
the last of the war-stocks was moved
a year ago the situation was thought
to be very strong, but there is some
question now as to whether all of
those stocks actually moved into con-
sumption. Symptoms of weakness in
