Rival Salvage Ship Captains Wage War for Treasure
Of Millions Locked in Sunken Liner on Sea Floor
Both Claim Right to neIve
in Ocean for Gold Lost
in Wreck.
By z SerUtce

By AEA SerUice
NORFOLK, Va, May ga vivid
new chapter in the history of
maritime treasure hunts is being
written by the prows of two wealth
er beaten salvage ships in the
cnoppy Atlantic waters off Cape
Charles, Va.
Part of the stirring story, too,
will flow from the fountain pens OF
official reporters in Norfolk courts,
where grizzled leaders of rival expe-
ditionS will finish their bitter con-
test for the g~littering $4,000, 900
treasure locked in The sunken liner
Merida'S hull.
Capt, H. L. Bowdoin and his crew
on the Salvor insist that by all the
ghosts of salt water sailors they have
the first right to dive for the treas
ure.
Captain John Hall, Gloucester
fisherman, and Klass EvartS, noted
Norfolk diver, and the crew of six
IN their boat, the Theresa and Dan,
claim an equal right to search for
the bullion that has been locked IN
the Strong-room of the Merida since
1911.
All the drama of an old sea yarn
surrounds the recent conflict at sea
between the two Salvaging parties.
On May II Captain Hall and Evar5S
Glass gave up their attempt at SAL
wage and returned to Norfolk 20
take legal steps for redress through
courts.
They claimed that they had been
prevented from engaging in lawful
salvage operations and suffered a
severe financial loss-possibly $50, 900
because the Salvor didn't have
sea-manners.
1t developed that Captain Hall
and EvartS had placed six anchors
over the place in the sea where
they judged the Sunken treasure re-
posed. Their ship was bobbing
about in the middle of the circle.
When the Salvor crew sailed up
the Theresa and Dan group warned
them to move off the marked an
chorage. Captain Bowdoin and his
men refused to sail away.
They came within the circle,
dropped their anchors, and pre-
pared to stay.
Captain Hall Sensed danger. He
sumoned the coast guard and asked
for protection. The Destroyer Davis
was sent to the scene, but was for
hidden to take action unless an &C
tual fight took place between the
two crews.
One night passed. Northing hap
pened. But on the second day the
trawler Sea Gull of the Salvor came
alongside the Theresa and Dan.
Captain BOwdoin announced that
he was coming in to sweep away the
anchors. He was reported to have
thrown his cable over the cable of

$40 FINE SET FOR LEVY
IN BEER LICENSE CASE
Judge Allows Thirty Days for Pay
ment to Be Made.

Martin Levy, proprietor Of Levy's
Kosher Kitchen, 1856 South Meridian
street, was ordered to pay a $40 fine
Thursday for selling beer without a
license.
Joseph Markey, special judge in
municipal court three, found Levy
guilty some time ago, but allowed
him time to decide on an appeal.
Levy defied police to arrest him
after Criminal Judge Frank P. Ba-
ker ruled several parts of the state
beer control act unconstitutional.
Baker, however, did not touch on
the license sections.
Markey allowed Levy thirty days
in which to pay the fine.

also had received a SIS, 1000 setback

also had received a $4,000 setback
on their chances at getting to the
sunken gold. A trial vas scheduled,
while the Salvor stayed in the water.
The Merida, whose hull is weight
ed with silver bars, gold bullion and
precious jewels, went down on May
II, 1911, when a dark fog swept the
sea. There were 200 passengers on
the boat, all of whom were fleeing
with their fortunes from the Ma
dero revolutionaries who had
Stormed Juarez Cruz a few days
before.
The people had put their treas
ureS in the strong room. When they

reached shore they would be safe
and rich.
But the Admiral F%arragut, a boat
of the United Fruit line, collided
with them. The Merida went down.
No lives were lost, but the exiles
couldn't rescue their money, gold
and gems.
The position in which Captain
Hall reported that he located the
Merida is approximately nine miles
from the position where, records
show, the Salvor group claimed to
have found the Sunken vessel.
This difference is expected to
figure Importantly in the court hear
ing of the rival claims.
Captain BoWdoin, who is backed
by the Subocean Salvage Company,
has been %perfecting the mechanism
of a deep sea diving apparatus for
sixteen years. When it was per-
fected he would find the lost treasure

said.

of position, cut its anchor cable,
and cast the ship adrift.
Meantime, Captain Hall and
Evarts had told Captain Bowdoin
they were willing to work with him
and share the treasure. The latter
had declined.
The Theresa and Dan went back
to port. It's 900-pound anchor was
lost.

The Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company has been
ordered by the Public Utilities
Commission to submit data on
rates of depreciation used on va

in washington.
After receiving the data, the
commission will fix the date for a
hearing to determine If the rates
now used are proper.
This move of the commission Is
seen as a continuation Of that
body's effort to take control of
telephone depreciation rates out of
the hands Of the Interstate Com

part Of the commissions fight to
lower telephone rates here, which

rate Of approximately $1,500,000

which has sustained loss Of
$30,000,000 since 1921. e..
Use of Muscle Shoals for sale
of retail power likewise is

be duplication of power trans

INSTITUTE TO TAKE UP
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

A tentative plan for the formation of
an American institute Of property man
egement will be acted upon IN the near
future by the board of directors of the
National Association of Real Estate
Boards.
The proposal was approved by the
Property Management Division of the
realtor body at the annual business
meeting of the association here last
week.
The institute would concern itself
chiefly with the problems of manage
ment agencies and for the present at
lccst would give immediate attention
primarily to apartment building matters
The objective of the institute would
be to create proper standards and units
for the collection of operating exper-
fences so that comparisons could be
made to improve the efficiency of many
operations and to provide a source of
material and data to enable appraisal
on an income capitalization basis to be
made more accurately than is possible
on piecemeal data now available
A number of the larger banks, mort
gage concerns and insurance companies
have expressed interest in the formation
of such an institute, it was reported.
