FINDS TREAGURE BURIED IN 1862 Junk Man Said to Have Unearthed Wealth on an Island. Hidden During the Civil War, Find Is Now Valued at $25,000. peal 155 5k 1 Epecial Dispatch to The Call SAVANNAH, Ga, Aug. 2—Has the treasure of the Starke family of Virginia, known to have been buried on Warsaw Island, thirty miles from this city, in 1863, been discovered? There is certain circumstantial evidence to hand which indicates that the treasure trove has been found and taken by J. H. Haslip, a Phila- delphia junk dealer. Haslip was much in evidence here two weeks ago, accompan- fed by his son. He talked freely and gave the newspapers some good stories of sea chases, buried gold and the like. So talk- ative was he that the reporters made light of his narratives, which he sald he | had from an old Confederate blockade runner, whom he had befriended and who on his deathbed confided to him the secret of wealth hidden in the sands of Warsaw. Hasllp came provided with canvas bags and steamer trunks in which to trans- port the recovered gold and plate. He made three trips to Warsaw Island. On the first two trips he declared that he had verified certain landmarks shown in an old parchment drawing alleged to have been made in the Libby prison, where the old Confederate was a guard after having left the navy. Haslip was enthusiastic after his second trip and d the newspapers that he would have a sensation for them when he returned from the island again. But on his third return he arrived in the night and toow the train for Philadelphia. He engaged a hack at the wharf and drove rapidly to the station with his son. The hackman who transferred them says the two men had with them a small trunk that was so heavy that it took both of them to lift it and two canvas bags that would apparently hold about eight quarts He did not know the men, had never heard of treasure hunters and hence did not suspect anything. At the statio | it was learned that the man had checked | in town or country, tokens of loyalty and affec- tion proffered by every section of the commu- [ y have made an enduring impression on our - < oo BURNING THE BALLOTS IN THE CONCLAVE HALL AFTER A FRUITLESS VOTE.

The scene at St. Peter's to-night was by far the most impressive that has occurred in Rome since the late Pope became fll. After the fruitless morning ballot a bellef spread that a new Pontiff would surely be elected this evening. All roads during the afternoon, therefore, led to the Vatican. The regular Sunday lelsure was forgotten in the anxiety to see the new Holy See. The streets converging into St. Peter's plaza were black with the thousands who entered the square with the ceaseless regularity of an incoming tide. From the barracks came large reinforcements of troops, which marched across the plazza and lined up at the foot of the steps of the basilica, leaying only a small space between the companies, in order to pre- vent a sudden rush to get inside St. Pe- ter's to witness the new Pope give his blessing to the Catholic world. A strong force of cavalry was picketed near by, to be called in case of a riot and more than 2000 soldiers were posted in the square. But the troops made only a significant, thin, blue line, compared with the vast multitude around them. By 6 o'clock it was estimated that 50,000 persons occupled the vast ampitheater. From the steps of the basilica, which were black with those tanding or sitting, across to the outside of the square there stretched as far as eye could reach an undulating sea of Then silence fell like a spell while the thousands watched a tiny stream of light gray smoke curl lazily downward from the thin smokestack of the Sistine Chapel. With o wind to carry it away, the smoke hung heavily in the hot air and then gradually disappeared. For a moment the crowd believed that the signal meant an election, for there is a tradition that the Cardinals are allowed to send up a little smoke as a notification of an election and much smoke in the case of a disagreement. Any such hcpes, how- ever, were almost immediately dissipated when a cloud of very thick smoke emerged and continued for five minutes. With manv ejaculations of iisappoint- ment the populace watched the last trace of the ballots disappear and then dis- persed, although it was a long time before the square of the basilica resumed its normal, quiet appearance. To-day’s fail- ure to achieve an election was a great dis- appointment . to Rome, and it is doubtful whether such an immense crowd . will again assemble unless the conclave should continue until another Sunday. FUTILE MORNING BALLOT. The mute signal, showing that the morn. ing ballot had been fruitless, was seen at 11:20 o'clock by many thousands, also, but the watchers in the morning, owing to the intense heat of the sun, were compelled to shelter themselves behind the colon- were sent into the Camerlingo, who does as he deems best about delivering them Some of the Catholic newspapers also were sent in, but no non-clerical papers. CARDINAL HERRERO'S ILLNESS. The number of telegrams for Cardinals Herrero y Espinosa and Langineux, who are 1, was so great that they made a large package. The Spanish students, who are anxious about Cardinal Herrero, asked Dr. Lapponi through the wicket how he was and the doctor replied that he was a little better, but still confined to his bed, and that the condition of Car- dinal Cretoni was unchanged. That Car- dinal s now filled with doubts as to whether he should give a vote, being affiicted with a sort of mania, due to his {liness: that he is unworthy to interpret the divine will by casting his vote for any one. Cardinal Gotti, as far as known, is the only one of the Cardinals who has not made some complaint about his cell. Be- ing a monk, he would consider demands for eomfort against his ideas of auster- ity. To a member of the Noble Guard, who wished him success, Cardinal Gotti replied: “Thank you, but I shall not be rhade Pope.” Prince Chigi, the marshal of the con- clave, i3 rather disconcerted because he has no electrical contrivance by which he can be notified from within the conclave the moment the new Pope is elected. He communighted with Monsignor del Val on the subject and the latter informied him that measures would be taken to no- tify the marshal instantly when a decis- fon was reached. Several attempts to establish communi- cation with the conclave have been dis- covered in time. L e e R ] ) To Make Bordeaux a Free Port.

COWES, Isle of Wight, Aug. 2.—The royal yacht Victoria and Albert reached here this evening and King Edward im- | mediately ordered the lssulng of the fol- lowing address: To My Irish People: T desire on leaving Ire- land to express to my Irish people how deeply I have been touched by the kindness good will they have shown to the G my- seif.

EDWARD, R. and I, August 1 Coples of the address will be posted throughout Ireland to-morrow. The King and Queen received a great recéption on their arrival here. They re- mained aboard the royal yacht, where they were visited this evening by the Prince of Wales. Cowes is already very gay with people who have come for the week of yachting. Among those here are many prominent Americans. The Ameri- can yachts include Mrs. Goelet's Kamaha and the Margerita, under charter of James H. Smith. King Edward's Britan- nia and Emperor Willlam’'s Meteor, which are to race during the regatta, are both here. The King will have a busy week. En- tertainments, either aboard the royal yacht or ashore, have been planned for each day. LONDON, t Aug. 3—In replying to an address presented to the King and Queen | at Queenstown on Saturday, the King said- that the Queen and himself “looked forward to renewing in future years the happy experience of the present visit.” This promise of another visit to Ire- land has given the greatest satisfaction | throughout the country and the morning | papers here all pay tributes to the ines- timable service which the King has ren- dered the realm by his tactful conduct. The visit is commented on as a great success, which will open up a new era of prasperity for Ireland, and the ad- dress {ssued by the King at Cowes yes- terday Is welcomed as a felicitious end- ing of a memorable journey. Even the Irish papers are enthusiastic in declaring | if only the King will pay a yearly visit or send the Prince of Wales if he can- not come himself, Ireland’s troubles will soon begin to disappear. Before leaving Queenstown summoned Horace Plunkett, dent of the Department of Agriculture and Technical Instruction for Ireland, aboard the royal yacht and compli- mented him on his work in Ireland's be- half, conferring the homor of knighthood and presented him with 4 knight com- mandership of the Victorian Order. —————— the King Second of Ohio’s Quadruplets Dies.
