Anderson, set out from Martin Point, Alaska, March 22, 1914, over the frozen Polar ocean, to search for sup- posed new lands in the Beaufort Sea, is not only alive and well, but has accomplished every purpose for which | the hazardous journey was under- taken, Captain 8. F. Cottle, master of the RRuby, says that Stefansson is now on | Bank’s Land, east of the Mackensie, | cutfitting for continuance of explora- tions to the westward, to ascertain the full extent of new land he dis- covered southwest of Prince Patrick island.

They turned back and landed on the mainland at a point near which the power boat Mary Sachs of the Stefansson expedition was wintering. | Here the three men outfitted for another three months' trip. = They again went upon tho ice, going morth and west and | discovering the continental al . Seven Months on loe. Stefansson spent some time exploring his new find, but at length, owing to soarcity of provisions, was compelled to #et out on the return journey to land. The men had been on the ice for nearly seven months. The return to shore was accomplished with great diffioulty, The men subsieted on the most meager ra- tions, but kept moving day after day, The dogs were almost famished. Finally the party arrived at Bank's Land, thor- oughly worn out. ¥or seven months they had been on seanty rations, traveling al- most continuously. Stefansson and his companions made thelr way from Bank's Land, which s uninhabited, to Balllle Island, which 1s Visited by whalers. Captain Louls Lane, crulsing on his power schooner, Polar Bear, found Stefansson and his com- ' rades making their way along tho south- _western coast of Balllle Island.

OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. 17.—Announce- ansson, Arctic explorer, had been heard from and was safe. Staffansson had not previously been heard from since April, 1914, and it had generally been belleved that he had several companions had been lost. The message from Stefansson was \to the naval department and was dated from Balllle Island, August 31, via Nome, Alaska, Sept. 16, and stated that he was to continue his northern exploration. The extra helpers for s®uthern parts, who have ample outfit for one year and Polar day were generally ascribed to the action of the British prise courts (n ordering the confiscation of American provision cargoes. Traders appeared to take the view that the action of the British courts would tend to hamper greatly the United States export trade in provisions Hog prices here late in the day were 2 cents a hundred-weight lower chan yesterday's average.

The horse, he testified, was Con- nell's, and o then left to go back to Con- nell's body which lay beside the roed.| The fact that Duran spoke HEngiish,| although he understood nothing that had been said at the time of killing was also brought out by the attorneys for the de- tense. Mrs. Anna Jackson, testified, that she had had conversations with J. C. O {#ult in which she was concerned was to| take a new turn. “Cravens told me that Connell would have to be killed,” she sald, “Cravens also told me that in the case of Porter carrying concealed weapons the justice would have to be bribed and renewal of representations made pre- viously.
