Lough Swilly, is being conducted by| the salvage. ship Racer The princely cargo, lay at a depth of 22 fathoms. The gold and bul- lion were contained in the strong! chamber amidships rendered almost | impregnable by its thick steel walls’ and heavily bolted doors. At first! portions of the Laurentic’s decks were| blasted away and a passage was made clear for the divers. On June 20,) the retrieving of the treasure began. | The first bucket sent up contained only copper pennies and a few silver coins. Then for several days. bucket after bucket containing three or more! gold bars, each worth more than $5,000 were hoisted to the surface and dumped on the deck of the Racer. | The first of these bars brot lusty cheers from the crew of the. salvage ship, but tossing fortunes about soon came to be merely another form of manual labor to these sailormen. Most of the gold bars were nine, inches long, two inches thick and four inches wide and weighed about 28 pounds. For days not one was found} as many of them were hurled clear} of the wreck by the blasting neces-| sary to make the strong chamber ac- i Several feet of sand have} now been washed away over these scattered bars and neath masses of twisted steel and it frequently re-| quires hours of* patient labor to pry! them loose. The record-day’s haul so far had been 47 bars,—worth ap- proximately $350,000. Thus far sev- eral million dollars worth of treas- ure has been salvaged. The Racer carries eight divers. Their “tricks” are so arranged that one diver is at work thruout the day. Each works half an hour and then must spend. 30 minutes in coming to the surface as otherwise the sudden relief from the tremendous deep-wa- ter pressure might cause partial or complete paralysis. They are brot | up in ten-fathom “hauls,” with ten- minute “rest” intervals. ! When the. day’s work is over, the day’s “catch,” if considerable, is des patched to London with an armed convoy. anne When first built the Racer was a} square-rigged man-o’-war—one of the “Wooden Walls of England,” as the ships of the British navy at that time | were know: — CornULyeag ago. FLIGHT TO ARGENTINA 13 ABANDONED BY BRITISHERS. (iy United Press) ” LONDON. (By mail.)—Plans to fly by airship from London to Buenos Aires have been temporarily abandon-, ed as a result of the government’s commandeering the R80, Vickers- Vimy super-airship, which - several months ago booked ten passengers at} $5,000 each for the trip. i Included among the passengers, were Sir Woodman Burbidge, his wife, | Lady Woodman, and R. H. Griffith. | Burbidge and Griffith are. the direct- ing heads of Harrod’s which has de-| partment stores in Buenos Aires and London, | “We have given up hope of being able to fly to Buenos Aires this year,” | iriffith told the United Pr “The sovernment’s commandeering of the RSO means it will be a year before, another airship can be built to make | the trip. Anyhow, we couldn’t have} made the trip on the R80 this yeat as the landing masts, which anchors; the airship by drawing it’s nose down | until a certain’ height has been reach- | so that passengers can alight and| vend via staireases and elevators, ! have not been completed in Buenos | \ires. Sir Woodman, Lady Wood-| man and myself have booked steame- | passages and will hail for the Ar- entine in October.” = CLOTHES WORN .

It lay there many months before anyone was en- terprising. enough to. attempt to. sal- vage it, in spite of the fact that most, of the people of Archangel were go-! ing arotind in rags. It was finally salvaged a short time after the ar, rival of the American Red Cross mise! sion in north Russia, and the cloth- ing recovered.
