FRIDAY. MARCH 20, 1903. GOLDEN TREftSURE SEA GIVES UP RICHES FROM LONG-SUNKEN VESSEL. Forty Years Ago the Sldewheeler Was Burned at Sea, and All Aboard Per ished. San Francisco, Cal., March 20. Among the passengers on the steamer Newport, which arrived from South and Central American ports Wednes day, was Captain E. W. Johnstone and a party of treasure-hunters, which left here last November in the hope of locating the wrecks of the side wheel steamer Golden Gate, which was burned to the water's edge off the Mexican coast in 1SC2. The Golden Gate carried much treasure in her strongroom, and her passengers individually were credited with having immense sums of money in their possession, the result of lucky strikes in the California gold fields. The Golden Gate was bound from this city for Panama, and was in col lision with an Atlantic liner at Pana ma. She took lire at sea and was sunk, all on board losing their lives. After 40 years, Johnstone's expe dition is one of the many determined to search for and If possible, secure the Golden Gate's treasure. Captain Johnstone reports that the efforts of the expedition met with success; that the vessel, submerged in 80 feet of water, has been located, and the treasure, or some of it found. He exhibits many sea-corroded and partly melted gold coins, in proof of his assertion that the treasuro has been located, and returns to this city to obtain appliances for recovering the gold that he feels assured is in the bulk of the lost Golden Gate.

They regard it as equal n flavor to the best American produc tion. In the opinion of some, It is in some respects better than any other American product they had examined. "The fish seemed to have been packed with care and the oil of good composition, though perhaps not qim sufficient In quantity. The opinion was expressed that your sample was hardly equal to the best French pro duct. It would seem that a profitable snnllno Industry could be built up on the West coast, and I see no reason why you should not succeed in such an undertaking. "GEORGE M. BOWERS, "Commissioner."

When they rushed the house, they found no one there, the misisonary and other occupants being absent at the time. A new volcano is vomiting large quantities of smoke and lava on Riri, New Hebrides. Earthquake shocks were being felt. The residents be lieved the volcano to be caused by submarine eruptions near the island, and large bodies of water were seen to fly upwards at times.
