TORIA For Infants and Children, : The Kind You Have ‘Always Bought Bays, Capes and Mountain Ranges Discovered During His Recent Trip Are Given Names=Moun= tain Called After Roosevelt. Commander Robert E. Peary Tee tured before the American Geograph- ical society in Mendelssohn hall at New York the other night on his most recent arctic explorations. He told of the movements of the party from the beginning to the end of the ex- ploring expedition. He said that the condition of the ice encountered be- yond the northern point of Greenland made it impossible to go as far north as he had hoped. Commander Peary said he considered that the expedition had accomplished much in the discov- ery and mapping of the northern coast line of Greenland, and he an- nounced for the first time the names which he had given to capes, bays and mountain ranges he discovered there. He has named these for members of the Peary Arctic club. The northernmost point is Cape Morris K, Jessup, in honor of the president of the club, Then there are E. C. Benedict fiord, Cape H. L. Bridge- man, Cape James J. Hill, and in the interior is Roosevelt range, a noble line of mountains, In the course of his lecture Com- mander Peary did not once refer to his trouble with Dr, Dedrick, and only twice was Dr, Dedrick mentioned, He stated positively that tne diseov- ery of the pole is possible. Referring to this, he said: “It may seem to indicate overeonfi- dence to state boldly that the pole can be reached, and yet it is a fact, even though the struggle for it has been going on unsuccessfully for years and years.

It is said the committee is Hkely to adopt a plan by which engineers now serv- ing will retire with an honorary line rank, but that in the future engineers will be selected from the cadets of the training ship Britannia, under the sys- tem employed at Annapolis, and there- after will hold executive rank. One of the great difficulti way of the plan is the Br of facilities to accommodate a s cient number of cadets to supply both sections of the service. The inneva- tion probably will be bitterly opposed by certain cliques of the navy. BIG BOATS TO BE BUILT. Cunard Company Plans to Construct the Longest Vessel in the World. It is expected that one of the two new fast Cunard steamships will be built on the Clyde and one by Vickers Sons & Maxim. Calculations by ex- perta show the harse power necessary to produce the speed of 25 knots an hour will be greater than had been an- ticipated. It is likely that the boats will have three serews. They will be the largest vessels in the world in length and will have the greatest power of any afloat. A Striking Coincidence.
