NEWPORT NEWS, Va., May 1% —The black wooden ship Blakeley, treasure hunier, today was well treasure hunter, today was well on her way on the first leg of a trip that recalls the blackest tragedy of the great war. She is en route to the Irish coast on a voyage that may make of her backers, her officers and her crew millionalres. Capt. Charley Rickards !s In com- mand. Capt. Charley, master mari- ner, threw his hat into the °ring of the sea at $5 a month thicty years ago and is today gambling the meager savings of 2 lifetime against enormous wealth. For the Blakeley will seek to salvage the gold and val- uables in the strong room of the ill-fated Lusitania. Grinning like a happy boy, the veteran navigator, as the lines were being thrown ashore yester- day afternoon, declared that he was very hopeful of the outcome. “Laughingly, 1 have told .my wife that when I come home we will bulld 2 mansion in Paris and another on 5th avenue,” he shouted to & group of his old cronles. ‘*“Now - that sounds good. But I don’t want a mansion. I want a farm, and Cows and horses and chickens and a Jit- ney to go to town to See the movies.” . Carries Full Equipment. The Blakeley, of 1,750 gross ton- nage, Is on her second voyage. Her first stop will be Philadelphia. On the first voyage she carried gen- eral merchandise to England. This time it Is to be adventure, real ad- venture, for in her “glory holes” she carries skilled divers; in her cargo hold, tons of dynamite; while on her decks are affixed pow- erful derricks to be used in lifting salvage from the sea. Adventure, Indeed, for on her return she may carry gold bullion recovered from the purser's strong room; jewels and gold and silver coin ownad by the men and women who essayed the war-time voyage, seven years ago, this month. “Look at my men,” fairly begged Capt. _Rickards. “There's Glass and Templeton and McKay—all good men, and all of them, like me, with their life's blood tied up in the expedition. There's New- man, my engineer, and Gz:orge Carter, his assistant, more goed men. ‘Sure, they're in on It, too. We have taken this ship on a bare boat charter, and we'll bring her home loaded with more money than—more money than He shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands in an expressive gesture. Then, smiling, he gazed across toward the Virginia capes and the tossing sea lying beyond. Will Work 250 Feet Down. “We will send our men down the 250 feet to where the Lucy is sup- posed to be lying,” tinued, “there to dynamite a pas- sage through the decks to the pur- ser's strong room. We will drop over glant hooks to drag away the wreckage. Then we hope the mammoth steel octopus tentacles of our especlally constructed ma- chine will fasten themselves about the treasure and rise higher, high- er, higher, until they finally drop upon the deck of our ship. They tell us that our divers cannot suc- ceed. But we have tested our men and our suits. One may remain 1,000 feet below the sea level in them and not be hurt. Leavitt, who will have charge of tho div- ing operations, himself worked on the Pewabic below the Lusitania mark In Lake Huron and recov- ered a part of the cargo. “I tell you we will succeed, and by Christmas we all will be rich.” One officer—McKay, the third mate—is after the adventure as much as the gold. - “I have been gold-digging be- P NEGRESS IN SENATE RACE.
