STOLE HIS TREASURE A!AP.
did PrcFit ctor Will Sue Capitalists
Who, He Says, Found It.
New York, June 10. After 20 years
spent in organizing and accDrr.paiiyintr
expeditions to the uninhabited Inland of
Cocos, 4uo nitk'S southwest of Panama,
where ho believed he would find the
tens of millions of treasure which tho
Rivat pirate Morgan, is said to hove
burled there, IMchard W. Armstrong,
of an Francisco, has now come east to
rue weiilthy New York and Eoston men
who, he says, stole his map and dis
covered the. treasure. He brought ex
cellent credentials.
In the forties, Armstrong says, his
father liitt at a California mining camp
an old Spaniard who was sick, poor and
without friends. Armstrong's father
provided for hlmuutllhlsdeath, and asa
reward the old Spaniard confessed to
I1I111 that he had Veen one of Morgan's
band, told how they had burled their
plunder on Cocos Island and gave Arm
strong a drawing by which he said the
treasure could be easily found.
Armstrong's frther soon died, leaving
to his son the map of Cocos Island, and
Instructions to seek tho treasure. Two
years ago lie Interested the New York
and Boston men, whom he is now going
to 3uc, and they backed an expedition
of 12 men. Ten of the 12 died or were
murdered. Armstrong and the other
survivor returned.
While he was sick in San Francisco,
Artnstrong tays, an agent of the east
ern syndicate stole from him the map
which located the pirate treasure. Then,
the eastern men fitted out an expedi
tion, went to Caco3 and found the treas
ure, which was worth more than S'20,
00,000. '. Neither Armstrong nor his lawyer will
give the names of the persons they in
tend to sue, but 'say that one of them
is a prominent merchant on Pearl
street.
AND NOW THE TAILORS.
Latest Class to Attribute Their Woes
to the Ubiquitous Bicycle.
New York, June 10. The bicycle hag
made its appearance again as the factor
In labor affairs. A few days ago It was
reported that the Plumbers' union had
declared against it, because one plumber
on wheels could do the work of three
afoot, and now the tailors of the East
Side sweat shops are up in arms against
it, because they find that through its
general use their occupation, to gome
extent, has gone.
A formal report was made yesterday
by the secretary of the United Brother
hood of Tailors to the effect that al
though it is usually their busy season
at this time of year, more than 40 per
cent, of the members of the union are
unemployed. There are about 20,000
tailors In New York. Joseph Goldberg,
secretary of the union, attributes all
the dullness to the bicycle. No more
Sunday suits are being bought now, ..
says, and instead of wearing good
clothes on Sundays and holidays, the
public is dressing itself in cheap bicycle
clothes and going off for long Jaunts
Into the country.

ANTHRACITE COAL. The market
for anthracite coal was in fair shape
lan week, and the cancellation of un
filled orders at the old scale of prices
Wives the situation a more even appear
ance. Stocks have been draw-it down
to a low point in many cases, and deal
ers are buying with a little greater free
dom. The price of coal at wholesale Is
firmly held at the full circular, which
for stove Is on the basis of 14.00. less IS
cents commission, f. o. b.. In New York
harbor. The restriction of production
has enabled accumulated stocks to be
worked off thoroughly, so that stocks
In dealeis' hand are light. Dealers
recognise this, but are hoping that the
circular can be successfully upset by in
ducing Individual companies to cut.
With regard to the future, the situation
is promising. If the requirements of
the anthracite trade this year do not
fall below those of last year, the com
panies will have to mine and bring to
market about 4,500,000 tons of coal per
month for the last half of the year.
This means working on full time. The
market wl'l not merely take this pre
diction, but will call for it, and there is
no doubt that most of it will be mar
keted at higher prices than those cur
rent. As the situation stands, dealer
have about thirty dty In which to
break the circular, If they can. Phila

AMERICA'S BEER TRADE- The
brewers who are now holding their na
tional convention, direct attention to
the faut that they have a quarter of a
billion of Invested capital and that since
lt76 their annual sale have increased
from $8,300,000 to $36,000,000. Striking as
these figures are they are less so than
the statistical exhibit made by the
Treasury department. Official figures
show that the consumption of malt li
quor in 1876 was SO8.336.O0O gallons; of
1SS6, 717,745,000 gallons; of 1895, 1.043.
292,000 gallons. Thus In three decades
the annual consumption cf beer ha
tripled. The present enormous output
of a thousand million gallons annually
gives a consumption officially, stated at
14.95 gallons per head of population,
against only 6. S3 gallon per head in
1876. Thu the consumpt'on per head
has a little more than doubled in the
same time that the total consumption
has tripled. It Is more important to
notice that during this same period the
annual consumption of distilled liquors
haa fallen from 1.33 gallons to 1.12 gal
lon a head, while that of wine Uas also
fallen from 46 to 25 per cent, of fc gallon
per head. New York World.

BIGGEST WINE TUN At Fresno,
Cal., on the St. George vineyard, has
late'y been erected a gigantic wine cask
or tun, beside which the famed great
tun of Heidalberg sinks into Insigni
ficance. It is the biggest In the world.
For about 130 years the great tun has
been celebrated Xar and wide for its
immense size, and nothing on the globe
could compare with it. It was built In
part 01' t'ie picturesque captle of Heidel
berg, the finest In all Germany. Itself
erected at the en J of tiie. thirteenth cen
tury. Tbe great tuti holds 49.000 Gor
man gallons, or 42,000 American gallons,
while the St. George tun holds no lens
than 79,0000 gallons, or almost twice as
much ns the tun which hns for 130 years
been figuring in history. It took two
carloads of stoel to hoop the gigantic
cask, end ih-re is enough lumber In It
to construct an elegant manslcn. The
lumber Is all redwood, obtained from
the forests of Humboldt county. Not
one stick in ten from which the ma
terial was selected would" answer. Ab
solute freedom from any flaws was re
quired. When the redwood was select
ed it took almost two years for it to
dry and undergo the preparation for
the cask. About two complete rail
road trains of this California redwood
Is used in the Fresno great tun. The
tun towers to a height of no less than
30 feet and it is 20 feet wide. It can
contain 30 carloads of wine.

THE SUEZ CANAL. The Sues canal
passed in 1893, says the Journal of Com
merce (New York), 3,434 steamers,
which is not quite ten a day. The St.
Mary's canal, open last year 231 days,
passed 12,495 steamers, 4,790 sail ves
sels and 671 unregistered craft. The
average number of vessels that passed
through the canal on each day that It
was open was over 72, and the average
lockages per day was a fraction over 80.
The 16,793 vessels of every class that
passed through tbe "Soo" canal last
year had a registered net tonnage of
16,089,778, which Is an average of not
much less than 1.0C0 tons, and the
freight carried amounted to 14,'171,648
net tons. The number of vessels that
passed through the Suez canal in 1891
was only S2 less than the number in
1895, and the net tonnage was 8,039,105.
The tonnage In 1895, then, very lightly
exceeded one-half the tonnage of the
"Soo" canal, carrying almost entirely
coarse bulk freights and open less than
eight months. Two and a half million
tons of coal, nearly nine million barrels
of flour, over forty-one million bushels
of wheat and other grains, nearly eight
million tons of iron ore, and three-quarter
of a million thousand feet of lum
ber, board measure, were the larger
Items of freight.

sale by auction and withdrawn, the
highest bid being only 7800.

Pittsburg has Just eclipsed all records
for large gas meters ty turning out one
capable of measuring one-half million
cubic feet a day. That was not necos
sary to hold tho record, for the largest
meter previously made was also con

meter was made necessary by the move
ment to utilize the gas produot of coke
ovens.
More steel is used every year in the

week. The majority of the workers in
these factories are women.

SWAM FOR HER LOVE.
Rival Lovers Decide Their Differ
ences by a Swimming Match.
Dover, Del., June 10. Joseph Hearn
and Ernest Doe have been rivals for
the hand of Mollio Jolls for two years.
Their Jealousy reached such a point
yesterday that Miss Jolls decided to
settle It in a novel way. She modo i
match between the men to swim uei-ivs

hand in murrlage. The lake Is about a
quarter of a mile wide. Both men are
good swimmers, and it was neck-and-neck
up to the time the men emerged
from the water.
The conditions of the match required
the men to go from bank to bank. Fate
was against Hearn, for his foot caught
in tho thick mud, losing him the race
by a yard. Miss Jolls refcreed the race
herself from the east bank. Hearn tooV
his defeat good-naturedly, and after
tendering his best wishes bade Miss
Jolls an affectionate good-bye.
