TREASURE ISLAND-
Puget Sound Extension Adopted and
a Doable North Bank Track
to Portland.
The seoret of the Wallula Pacific
railroad's intentions are made publio
in au announcement which comes
from Chicago.
At a special meeting of the direc
tors of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
St. Paul Bailroad company the board
formally authorized the building of
the St. Paul extension to the Pacific
Coast from Evarts, S. D. , to Seattle
and Taeoniu. It was specified iu the
official announcement that the work
of construction is to bcgiu forthwith.
It is estimated that the cost will be
about 50,000,000.
It was auuouuced at the close of the
meeting that as yet no plans had beeu
determined on for financing he pro
ject. This matter, iu all probability,
will be decidod upon at a meeting of
the executive committee. It is under
stood that au issuo of couvertablo
bonds has been under consideration,
but that there is uo likelihood of un
increase iu the road's capital stock,
about 25,000,000 of which is still un
issued. Preparations already have been
made for the incorporation of a new
railroad company from Evarts, which,
however, will be eutirely financed by
the St. Paul.
While all the details of tho route
have not beeu decided ou, the liue
will ruu toward the Rocky mountains
through Lolo pass aud ultimately con
necting at Wallula , Wash. , the te r
miuus of the recently 'iueoiporated
Pacific railroad, which runs to that
point from Seattle.
The Orogouian says:
stated ou what seems to
iuformatiou that the Northern Pacifio
will construct a double track down
the north bauk of the Columbia river
from Wallula, Wash., into Portlaud.
Over this liue trains of the Chicago,
Milwaukee aud St Paul will ruu

Company Has Been Formed In Seattle to
Hunt for Hidden Riches.
Millions are involved in a treasure
search to be instituted by a company
which has just organized at Seattle.
The company is known as the Cocas
Maud Hydraulic and Treasure com
pany and has been incorporated under
the laws of the state of Washington.
The incorporators are Captain Fred
Hackett, of Vauoouver, B. C. ; John
W. Lam air, James A. Steele and
Samuel E. Squires. Their object is to
recover the lost Peruvian millions.
A rich reward is offered to the man
who invests iu the stook of the com
pany, according to the incorporators'
statements. For every $100 invested
the confiding "sucker" is to receive
$32,000 iu real money, according to
them. The company expects to find
just $33,000,000 altogether. They ex
pect to find all this money along the
coast of Central and South America
on Cocas Island. The Cocas Island
proposition was started in 1821, when
a Spanish galleon started out iu the
Pacific Ocean, was overhauled by the
British mau-of-war Devonshire, which
was theu a pirate. Aftor the treasure
was taken off the ill fated Spanish ves
sel it wastburied ou Cooas Island, aud
there it is still supposed to be.
The company expects to uncover
this treasure iu a short time. The
other part of the millions was the
property of Peru, uud during the
Chilian war it was taken on board a
vessel and later transferred to another
vessel which stole it. The treasure
was buried ou Cocas Island, which is
getting to be a great place to, bury
treasure. Those who buried the stolen
treasure wore killed by the Peruvians,
but one mau by some miraoulous man
ner got away. He was followed all
over the world by Peruvians, who
wanted his death blood. A man
named Keating helped j him out of a
Scrape and to him was told the secret
of the island. This mau made two
trips to the island, according to the
story, aud brought back plenty of
money. This money' was left with
Thomas Hackett, the broth or of the
uiau who is organizing the company.
Captain Hackett says he has been
ou the island but the exact place is
buried under a landslide. This is
whore the hydraulic pait of the com
pany is to help them get the treasure.
Several expeditious have beeu sent
to the island by interested people, but
the treasure is us illusive us Captaiu

Eegin Next Week.
; After consulting vrtk. Judge W. B.
Gilbert of the United States circuit
court at Portland, it was partially
arranged that Judge Wolvertou should
begin bis duties as United States dis
trict judge early next week, probably
by Tuesday or Wednesday, as there
is a heavy grist of business awaiting
him. He has said that he will not
appoint a new clerk of bis court until
after bis confirmation by the senate,
and perhaps not for - some little time
thereafter. He will probably joiu in
handing down several decisions by
the supreme court next Monday and
partly clear up the pending cases.
