Finding of 'a lifeboat containing the frozen Yody of Michae! Paytosh, one of the eight members of the crew, dispelled any. belief that the Cornell is safe. T'he Yawl and its contents were picked up yesterday by the Q. A.

Potter saw whal they believe was the Cornell three miles off shore between Ashtabula and {Conneaut, Ohio, Thursday night. This is the only record of the Cornell hav- ing been sighted since she left here Thursday afternoon for Buffalo where she was to have been delivered to her new, owners, a Syracuse firm, Tug's Fate a Myst'epy. What happened to the missing craft after that ig purely speculation and conjecture. H. B. Shaver, superintendent of the air mail flying field here, said three pianés would be dispatched to Erie to fly ovér the lake between that point and Long Point, Ont., provided tugs are so stationed as to guarantee the safety of the aviators in the event of a forced landing.

EXPLORERS HOLDING, | OFF WORK IN CAIRO Egypt Refuses to Let Them Share in Treasures Fonnd London, Dec. 27, (By Associated Press).—Dispatches from Egypt to the London newspapers today stress the growing anxiety of foreigh explor- ers over the new law which M. La- cau, the Egyptian government's econ- servator of antiquities, is drafting, providing that all relics henceforth discovered shall belong solely to the government and that the discoverers shall be denied the right to a share in them as heretofore. Americans Opposed. American explorers are reported as participating in opposition to the law and are said to have signed with the English a joint document of protest which will be presented to King Fuad, the Egyptian cabinet, M. Lacau and Field Marshal Viscount Allenby, the British high commissioner. The arch- aeologists are quoted as predicting that the adoption of the law will terminate exploration in Egypt, inas- much as the British and American public whose contributions support the work will be likely to discontinue their help unless they see tangible re- sults for their respective museums. Spend Large Sums Yearly. The Telegraph's Cairo correspond- ent quotes H. E. Wintlock, an ex- cavator of the Metropelitan Museum of Art in New York, as saying that institution spends 5,000 pounds ster- ling annually in the neighborheood of Cairo alope and that if similar sums are spent throughout the Nile valley it will be seen that the Egyptians will lose an important source of revenue if the explorations are stopped. Mr. Wintlock asserted that the exhibition of Egyptian $ntiquities in foreign museums was the best possible ad- vertisement for Egypt as each new discovery added to the number of winter visitors who spend money freely in viewing the relics of that country's anclent civilization. The correspondent says that Mr. Wintlock and Prof. James H. Breast- ead, the eminent IEgyptologist, have already held up their plans for this winter until theé government's position is clarified. Daily reports on the progress of the work of excavating the outer cham- bers of King Tutankhamen’s tomb for clearance emphasize the important help of the American archaeologists.
