They r a tide raises the sunken I be raised from the floor sea. Then the barge with the lander lashed benecath, wi moved shoreward and k finally beached. There is an 18-foot tide in the channel where the Is- lander sank, which will be of much assistance to the saivors. “We expect to leave Seatile Sep- tember 25 for Juneau with our new salvage outfit and be on job from | «w‘ powe one cab 5 nn-i will be| as the er will Ah t wr early in October,” Mr. Curtis 1s quoted as saying by The Seattle| Times in its issue last Sunday ¢ “The tug Seal will tow the Griffsor to the scene of the wreck. Two| deep-sea divers, Capt. C. A. Hayes and Russell Clithero will do the underwater work. “The great depth at which the Islander is lying makes diving in ordinary diving equipment impos. sible, because of the pressure of the water, so we will use the Wiley diving bell, the invention of Carl Wiley of Olympia. It is from 40 to 48 inches in diameter and shap- ed like a huge egg. In it is room for a man to sit up, his head pro- truding through an opening in the top over which is clamped a diver's ‘l\cImeL, with four glass portholes, itwo inches thick. Arm of Steel Extending sif feet from the bell is a slender arm of steel on the end of which are five claws manip- ulated as is the arm, by levers on the inside of the bell. A wire oper- ated by gears, manipulated from the inside swings the arm and op- ens and closes the claws. The arm is capable of lifting a weight of 400 pounds.” The Islander, bound from SkJ.L:- way to Seattle with miners and gold from the Klondike, is believel to have collided with an iceberg She was lost August 15, 19C1. Sev- enty-two of her passengers wers drowned. Her treasure is estimated at $3,000,000. She lies 365 feet be- neath the surface of the sea. | Divers in the past few years haye | penetrated the wreck, and from passenger cabins have recovered gold dust and jewels worth several thousand dollars; but the ship's !strong boxes have not been locat- | ed. Other Treasure Ships If the Islander is beached and her riches are recovered, the Cur- tis-Wiley Company plans to at- tempt to salvage other sunken casure ships. Mr. Curtis men- tioned two of them. “The Brother Jonathan sank off St. George's Reef while bound from San Francisco to Portland with $2,500,000 aboard,” he said. “The steamship Golden Gate lies off the Pacific Coast of Mexico with between $2,500,000 and $3,000,- 000 aboard. We could tackle either of these jobs and might recover the treasure.” ——to——— Old papers for sale at The Em- pire. —— FIRE ALARM CALLS 1-3 Third and Franklin. 1-4 Prcnt and Franklin, 1-5 Front, near Ferry Way. 1-6 Front, near Gross.
