Lane, in the power schooner Polar Bear, took Stefansson and two companions from Banks land to Herschel Island last August, and afterward sold the Polar ‘Bear to Stefansson, who returned to Banks land with this boat and the small power boat Gladiator, intending to pass the winter in expioration of Banks land, and then, on the breaking of the ice this qprlnx making further exploration of the new land which he discovered last year, north of Melville Island. Cuptain Lane is now in Seat- tle supervising construction of his schooner. Captain Lane is going north, not under contract with the Canadian gov- ernment, but under a verbal agreement with Stefansson. Lane's new power boat, which probably will be named the Great Bear, will be of wooden con- struction, and the strongest ice-re- sisting vessel ever built on Puget sound. Lane will take with him gaso- line and other supplies for the Stef- ansson fleet. Stefansson has asked the Canadian government to permit his parties to continue their work a year longer, but it is believed that on ac- count of war conditions the explorers will be ordered home. The expedition was planned to continue three and a half years. Unless ice movements are unfavor- able, Captain Lane expects to reach Banks land at the time fixed upon. If he has good fortune, he will call first at Herschel Island, where he may re- ceive word from Stefansson. If he does not get instruttions there, he will proceed north to Panks land, making stops at points agreed upon last year, | where Stefansson may have letters or men waiting for Lane. It may be that the explorers will choose to return to Nome in their own boats, the power schooners Polar Bear, Alaska, Mary Sachs and North Star, but the vessels probably will be out of repair and un- able to make the uick hat erous ice, which closes upon the coast rapidly in early autumn. K Nome soon after the middle of Sep- tember. The Stefansson expedition from the beginning was divided into two par- ties. The northern, under Stefansson, planned to seek new Jand in the Beau- fort sea, and succeeded, notwithstand- ing the loss of the principal boat, the whaler Karluk, which was crushed in the ice the first winter out. The southern party, under Dr. Rudoiph An- | derson, has been exploring and chart- ing the delta of the Mackenzie river and the country to the east, and also making a geological survey of the isl- ands and mainland at the mouth of the great river, making especial search for copper and coal. Copper nuggets abound along the waterways, and the Eskimos make their weapons and uten- sils of beaten copper. Stefansson, who discovered the blue-eyed Eskimos in the Coronation gulf country, east of the Mackenzie, some years ago, these people being, he believed, descendants of the ancient Scandinavian settlers in Greenland, is not revisiting these Es- kimos during his present journey. Stef- ansson and Anderson have a large amount of information and material, and will make a complete report to the Caradian government. Stefansson will pulbiln'h a book describing his discov- erles.

Russian Expedition Has Made Vi Western Siber: Petrograd, April 18.—An expedition sent out by the department of agri- culture to study supply of fur-bearing animals has just returned from an exploration tour covering 7,450 miles of territory along the Yenisel river in Western Siberia. As a result of his investigations, the chief of the expe- dition, M. Solovieff, recommends a. pro- hibition of kiiling of the sable for an additional three years, the first period of three years, waich will end in Octo- ber, 1916, having proven insufficient to replenish the supply. Without such Drotection, in his opinion, the sable Will very soon become extinct in Rus- sia. The expedition suffered extreme hardship and encountered many perils, to in crossing streams on rafts. The ex- pedition broke up into parties, and it was estimated In all a total of 150,000 square versts of territory was covered, traveling on skis, with horses, reindeer and on rafts, mapping the route tra- versed and collecting specimens, M. Solovieff made an interesting report on the Karagaz tribe of Turkish origin inhabiting the Sayan mountains in the governments of Yeniseisk and Irkutsk. which 88 are warriors. The explorers witnessed the trial of a man and wife growing out of a domestic row. The warriors acted as judges and decreed that the couple be separated, the wom- an to receive 80 lashes and the man 60. The evidence appearing to show that the woman was at fault, M. Solo- vieff inquired why the man was pun- ished also. The reply was that it was punished by the tribunal the woman was sure to take her own revenge. A fine of three reindeer against the pair, the animals being killed and eaten on the spot by the members of the tribe. DESIGNS FOR NEW ISSUES OF GREEK POSTAGE STAMPS Have Been Approved and Will be Issued. Soon Athens Greece, April for a new issue of Greek postage stamps have been approved and unless the Serbian occupation of Corfu in- new stamps will the United States, Corfu. Greece has become complicated by the fact that during the holidays, such as those around Easter no letter posted for delivery in Greece will reach its destination unless it is stamped with a “National Relief Stamp,” in addition to the regular postage. These rellef stamps are in two denominations— two-fifths of a cent and one cent—and the proceeds goes to the aid of fam- ilies of those killed in the Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1813. The design of both these stamps shows a dying soldier in the foreground, while a white robed figure in the background takes a wo- men and child to her bosom. From an artistic point of view they are very ugly designs. In addition to the obligatory Nation- S., . |al Relief Stamps there are Gi Greek Red Cross stamps and stamps of the Wo- men’s Patriotic League on sale in all postoffices. The use of these is so Strongly urged by the postal clerks, that the average Greek ends by believ- ing that, they, too, are obligatory. with the result that he covers the good part of an envelope with stamps. The Patriotic League of Greek women is under the presidency of the Queen, nd its stamp bears a crow circle, with. in which Is a Greek letter § for Sophie, the Queen’s name, intertwined with 4 red cross. These, as well as the Red Cross stamps, are issued in one denom- ination only, one cent each.

Several members were lost|for ordinary consumption in the Argentine is now $35 gold per ton, and hard to purchase even at that figure. To prevent the reduction of the pres- ent meagre supply, the national gov- ernment has ordered the principal steamship companies not to put on board any outbound vessel more coal than necessary to carry it to the near- est Brazilian port of call. This coal is the pfoperty of the steamship com- panies stored here as a precautionary measure and the fact that the govern- mert has Leen obliged to place an em- bargo oa this private property is in- dicative of the seriousness of the fuel problems in this country. The rallroads likewise have been forced to economize by cutting down the summer time-tables of trains, and in the meantime they have placed or- drs for 1.560,00 tons of hard wood for fule. But even wood has gone up $6 a ton within a week, and is now quoted at $33 paper, or $14 gold. Charcoal which is largely used for do- mestic purposes is also $5 a ton dear- er, The sitvation is such that even the ships_of the Argentine navy are de- clared to he impotent owing to the lack of coal. The American-built battieships Rivadavia and Moreno were constructed to burn oil, but ap- parently the oil problem is nearly as sericus as the coal situation. Crude petrcleum from the Argentine wells is beint offered in limited quantities at $80 paper, $84 gold, per ton.

An oflicial report of conditions pre- vailing in and around the Comodoro. Rivadavia oil area shows some ineffi- cient ccnditions under which the de- velopment of the field is being under- taken. Water is lacking In that re- gion and has to be brought form a place more than thirty miles away, and labor is also scarce. Being a government monopoly, and heavily fiscalized, the operations have been elaborate and costly, but, it is charg- ed, extremely inefficient. It is said to be doubtful whether the oil fields will ever respond to the elaborate hopes Lased upon the casual discovery of them in 1907. A Sovernment inspec- tor, just returned from the district, ex- presses his surprise that the locomo- tives rlving to and from the petroleum zone are still being fired with costly coal. The peat deposits of Tierra del Pue- g0 arc declared to contain inexhaus- tible supplies of that fuel, but with scarcity of coasting vessels and the difiiculty of securing labor for that bleak region. it is more than doubtful whether it will ever pay. Of wood there is an enormous supply, but it grows in the remote and generally in- selubrious regions. As for American the freight charged, 90 shillings per ton, rules it out cf consideration, in view of the fact that the British product is ship- ped at $30 a ton. This can be done becausc freighters are sure of picking up profitable charters in the River Plutte for England or France.

Greeresfle W%M PREPARATION OF SHARK MEAT AS A FOOD Experiments Are Being Conducted by U. 8. Bureau of Fisheries. ‘Washington, April 18.—Prellminary experiments are being conducted by the United States Bureau of Fisherles in the preparation of shark meat as a food. Fisherles experts say there is good ground for the relief that a demand for the article will be cre- ated. Even now, they say, sharks are more universally eaten than is gen- erally known as trap fishermen off the Massachusetts coest ship all of the large species of shark, with one ex- ception, caught in thelr trap. The head, fins and tail are removed and the sharp then looks not uniike a deep water swordfish. They ars ship- ped to Boston and New York and sold as deep-water swordfish, the fisher- ! men receiving from three to eight cents a pound. In the United States there is a pre- | judice against the use of sharks for | food that results in waste of what | rightfully should be a resource, fish- eries experts declare. In England and Wales almost 6,500,000 pounds of dog- fish, valued at more than $100,000 landed in 1913.
