LOST TREASURES WOULD PAY DEBIS $154,000,000 Buried or |G . Surken Wealth Exceeds Today’s Instaliment. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, December 15.—Buried and sunken treasure, some of it the goal ©of adventurers for more than a century, would more than take care of today’s installment of war debts due the United States from France and England. ‘After payment of those obligations, there still wold remain a sum sufficient to permit Santa Claus to fill a few mil- ion additional stockings this Christmas eve. For the total of the treasure—that part of it which is known or has been estimated—reaches the impressive fig- ure of more than $154,000,000, compared with $114,811,438 due today from Franee and England. $60,000,000 on Cocos Island. The largest treasure is $60,000,000 in {sh-nk gold reputedly buried in Cocos land and the goal of a Canadian ex- pedition which set out last Winter. The source of this treasure has been sttributed to various pirates, including Capt. W. L. Morgan, but investigators generally agree it was part of the loot of the city of Lima, Peru. Another Tich treasure was carried to the bottom of the Atlantic off the Vir- ginia Capes in 1911 when the steamer Merida sank after a collision. In her hulk are reported to be $4,000.000 in gold and silver, part of the Mexican state treasure, and $15,000,000 in rubies sald to have been once the property of the tragic Emperor Maximilian of Mexico. $10,000,000 Off Delaware. The British sloop-of-war De Braak sank with $10,000,000 in treasure in 1793 near Cape Henlopen, off the Dela- Wware coast. Only recently divers were yeported to have discovered the ship and brought parts of it to. the surface. Preparations are now under way to salvage some $10,000,000 in treasure from the-Lusitania, sunk off the Irish coast by a German U-boat 17 years ago, and work is continuing on the liner Egypt, off- Brest, France, from which about $3,000,000 of her $5,000,000 in gold already has been recovered. Another treasure for which dozens of companies have searched in vain was said to have been buried on Oak Island, off the coast of Nova Scotia. Historians state it was known to have been there in 1795 and apparently had been there a great many years before that time. Tts. value has been estimated at $50,- 000,000. I NAVY ORDERS l Comdr.
