MILLIONS IN BURIED TREASURES GOAL OF FOUR SEARCHING PARTIES By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 22.—Directly after news that gold diggers were seeking a lost Jesuit treasure in the Wye river, Canada, and that an expedition had just left New York for the Belgian Congo, there to search for precious metals, an- nouncement was made today of two new treasure hunts that have been organized and will soon be on_their way. Five men, one from Elizabeth and two from Newark, N. | | during war between South Ameri countries many years ago the national treasure of one of the participants was put on a ship to save it from capture. The vessel escaped and on reaching the Canadian_coast the treasure was buried. Bowne said the Caliror- nian convinced him that he-held the secret of the treasure and de- cided to lead the search. ‘The other treasure hunters -will sail July 1 on the steamer Balkely, which has been especially equipped to raise $6,000,000 in coin and bul- lion.which went down on the Lusi- tania when it was sunk by a Ger- man submarine.

Sullivan wired from the San Francisco convention of the In- ternational Association of Police Chiefs vesterday that: “Criminal identification bureau goes o Washington. Immediately consideration is being given on the part of the District | Chiamber of Commerce and VArious| . .. s ciated Pre trade bodies here, as well as by offi- cials interested in police protective work, to the details of establishing the bureau. g Photographs and fingerprints of very criminal in the United States will ‘be kept In the national bureau here. As soon as an arrest is made in another city in the United States the photograph and fingerprints will be forwarded to Washington. At the criminal identification clearing house here the fingerprints and data will be checked up with a view to placing the criminal. The advantages of the sys- tem are apparent. Immediately after receipt from an- other city of information regarding a criminal the checking-up process will be instituted, with the result that within a very short period of time the entire amount of information col- lected regarding the criminal in gues- tion, gathered in every section of the country, will be sent on its way back to the arresting forces. The decision to establish the bureau heré is re- garded as a victory for Maj.

HAVANA, Jume 22. \ i | —La Nacion, an lyaf[ernoon newspaper, today launched another bitter attack against the| nited States. The attack, which is! { printed on the first page of the news- ! paper under a seven-head column, de- jclares “that hatred of the American | must be our new religion.” | The newspaper says that gratitude i for American co-operation during the !last years of revolution against Spain, which would have been won anyway, has blinded Cuba to the sin-. ister moves of the United States, which only intervened in the revolu tion to secure control of the island. This newspaper’s attacks, which followed the recent cabinet recon- struction, have accused the Washing-i ton government of imposing the re-| form cabinet on President Zayas. They also have contained the charge that Carlos M. de Cespedes, minister at Washington, was ‘chosen as secretary of state in the new cabi- net so that when President Zayas and Vice President Carillo are deposed. Cespedes. a friend of the United States, would ,become president of Cuba. 3 | logg believe that while his chances for the United States Senate and pro- claimed thereby as virtual leader of the democratic party in Minnesota, Mrs. Peter Olesen declared that she would have to forget politics for the | next two weeks and devote herself to a belated spring house cleaning. “It will take at least two weeks to put my house in order,” she said when informed that she was the choice of Minnesota democrats to lead the fight on Senator Frank B. Kellogg. “I have been away from it so long that it is! trightfully out of order, but I aim to put it right and then open my cam- paign. Mrs. Olesen also wants to make a tew gingham dresses for her fifteen- year-old daughter and preserve some strawberries before she climbs into her Ford sedan to start her swing around the state. Campaign a Speculation. There is still much speculation here as to just how Senator Kellagg will meet the whirlwind campaign that Mrs. Olesen has in mind. She is a per- sonality to be reckoned with in any political fight, and she is going to make a personal appeal to the voters from one end of the state to the other. Many friends of Senator Kel- of election seem as ten to one to any possible chance for Mrs. Olesen, nev- ertheless he may feel compelled him- self to take the sturap before the bal- lots in November, m i | i very proud to be the first paign that w en of the country. Win or lose, Sena tor Kellogg will know he has been in| a fight this fall.” 3 Mrs. Olesen doesn't look much like a fighter. She weighs only 120 pounds, but she has time and she doesn’t appear to be} afraid that she will be confounded by the legal technique of her adversary. Receives Wide Support. One significant feature of Mrs. Ole- sen’s fight is that she has been of- fered the help of nearly every promi- nent democrat in the country. Tele- grams have poured in upon her from | every section. Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippl. former Gov. James M. Cox, William G. McAdoo and Willlam Jennings Bryan are among the oratorical lights who have pledge their personal sup- port. The democratic national com- mittee will arrange at once to make its influence felt in the campaign, while the National Woman's Party has notified Mrs. Olesen that the full strength of that organization will be thrown in the balance for her.
