EXAMINATION OP CHIEF ENGINESR MELVILLES—HIS ACCOUNT OF THE DISASTROUS VOYAGE. ‘The examination of Chief Engineer Melville was begun at 10:30 this moraing by the Jeannstte doard of inquiry. »He was as ed to give a nvra- tive account of the voyage of the Jeannette and any important incidents connected with her management up to the tme of her loss, and began his story with the departure of the ship from San Francisco July Sih, 1879. His narrative of the voyage up to Au- ust 31st Was in the main a repetition of Lteut. Banenhowers story. "At this thne the ship Was In the Arctic ocean, heading north and west. Th ice became heavier and hi About September 5th THE SHIP WAS FORCED INTO THE ICE as faras we could go to the westward and an- chored to a place that night, We had passed through open water and some young tce that had made. ‘The top satls had been set to assist the steam in forcing through. The pack at this time was in motion to the eastward, and as we passed Buon it, closed behind us. There were open fo the westward that we were endeavoring leads toreach. On September 6th the young ice bezan tomake around us and freez> fast, the old ice cementing the whole mass, 80 that it was IMPOSSIBLE TO MOVE THE SHIP. Capt. De Long stated to me at that me that he had put the ship to the westward in the hopes of reaching Wrangel Land, which was then in sight. He also sald it was ils intention to work along | the coast water to the northward, and in case he could not get the ship along to use sleds when the sledding season set in and explore along the coast to see if Wrangel Land Was a continent, as he had been led to suppose. At this time the general routine of the ship was carried on from day to day. Witness then de- scribed the dally occupations and amusements of the officers and men, and added all things were cheerful and happy On board the ship. ‘THE ATTEMPT TO REACH HERALD ISLAND. ‘Witness gaveran account of the ineffectual at- tempt of the sledge party (of which he wasa member) to reach Herald Island, an open lead of water from 700 to 1,000 feet wide all around the isiand barring their further progress, after hav- ing traveled about 2% miles over the ice. Witness read Capt. De Lonz’s orders to Lieut. Chipp, (who commanded the sledge party) which Were to construct @ ealrn on the island, and to find if possible a suitable spot for winter quarters for the ship If they could chance to drift down upon the island. At this time whole pack was In motion. Witness’ account of the daily routine and occupations, games upon the ice, bear hunting, &c., corresponded with Lieut. Dahenhower's evidende, a3 also huis account of the NIPTING OF THE SHIP by the ice November 14th. Witness was ordered by the captain to carefully examime the condition igines and coal bunkers, and found that the slip had sustatned no of the ship in the vicinity of the en material damage, and gave no signs of leak Ing. Mr. Melville continued his narrative of the ex- periences of the Jeannette’s crew during the tm- prisonment of the ship in the Ice, -He stated that prior to November 25 preparations had been made to abandon the ship ff It became necessary to do so. The crews © were assigned to the boats and the men were drilled; | sleeping bags were made and fur clotaing Prepared. From January 10th to 19, wituess sald, there was great motion in the pack, ACCOMPANIED WITH LOUD GRINDING NOISES. At this time the siip was ina solid bed of Ice, and her botto:n was continually struck and ham- mered by the ice passing underneath her. The surface of the pack seemed quiescent, and but for the noise and under-running of the ice, it would hot have been known that the ice was in motion atall. On the 19th the ice seemed to be piling in toward thée*ship from all directions. About 10 a.m. water was found tobe running in at the bottom of the ship. Previous to vats she had recelved several severe Jars fore and aft, Dut no damage was detected until the people went be- low to get out tho supply of coal for the day. When it was found th: THE DAMAGE TO THE SHIP. Witness described the improvising of a steam pump under his direction, by which the water Was reduced so as that the carpenters could work, and then detailed the further measures that were taken to stop the leaks and make the sbip water- tight. This work occupied about ten days, dur- ing which time the steam pumps were kept’ con- tinually in motion, The damage to the foreport at this time was caused by underrunning ice, the ship belng firmly imbedded in the ice, so tht it was impossible to use a sail or thrummat for the purpose of stopping the leak. By January aist he leak had 80 far been reduced that the ship could be kept free of water by using the auxillary puraping oilers instead of the main boilers. The boiler and engine of the steam cutter was adapted to the ‘work of the bilge-purnp attached to the main en- gine. While this work was going on the pump in the engine room was kept going all day long at the rate of 35 strokes per ininute. Upon trying the engine and boiler of the steam cutter it was found t the main engine Diige-pump was too ge, 80 a new pump was made to fat them. By February 9h it wis found that the water could be kept down by Tunning the engine room pump only about 15 minutes each hour. On February 13th the fires were hauled in the main furnace, as tt was found possible to do the pumping entirely by the aux- lary apparatus. The court adjourned at 2 p.m. until 10:30 a.m. to-morrow.
