From Many Sectlons of the Coun- try Come Reports of Partles Be ng Organized. 24 —The Klon- nt, so far as this town is just one weck old to-day, concerned, i and already enough transportation lines are in th with those in existence be- fore, to dispatch of a steamship from Le:e every other day. The Mex co sails . tbe Topeka July the Rosalie Ju'y 3i, the Al-Ki Auzust 2, the Willamette Auzust 3 and the Queen s Avgust 6. By the time the Queen departs the Mexico will be back to load again. The Rosslie is a large steamer, owned by the Northwestern | sportation Com pany, which bas been on the run between here and Victoria for some months past. She has been chartered by Frank E. Burns, for many years coal agent of the, Oreg. Improvement Company at this voint, and has sccommodations for 200 first-class passengers. Mr. Burns has aiso chartered the steamer Edith, owned by Tacoma parties, 1he Edith will Jeave on July 31, but will take no passengers. Her entire cargo will consist seventy- taken np.

The other steamers are regular line boats which have been running for some | months, | While Dy ea is spoken of as the point for which these boats are heading the ma- jority of the nussengers wi'l get off at Skagawa, a few mites lrom Dyea, up an- other inlet. The pass from Skagawa, | called Whites Pass, is now considered better tnan the Chiicoot, back of Dyea. Whites Pass is Jower, much work has been done on the trail and thers is wood all along the route, while on the Chilcoot Puss ronte wood has e carried if packers desire a fire dusing the night necessarily spent on the trails, Moran Bros., provrietors of a shipbuild- ing plant and mactine-shop here, closed a coatract with a British Columbia syndi- cate yesterday (o build three boats for the Brickeen River. hese boats are for a new route 10 the Yukon whicn the Cana- | dians are exploiting. The Stickeen River heads in the Cassiar mining d strict. From the head of navization on the | Stickeen there is now a irail into Dease Lake, at one time a rous mining camp, to which twenty yeurs ago there was a rush sim:lar’'to that on at present to Klon- dyke.

The Morans are to get out all the material here and have it ready to put together, nd ouild the engines and boilers as well. Then the material will be taken to the Stickeen and the boats buiit and launched there, Work commenced on the drafts within an heur after the contract was accepted, and the Loats will be built as rapidly asit can be done. The Mexico sails to-morrow with the heaviest passenger-list and most hetero- genous cargo of freight that has ever been on her decks since she was launcned.‘ Sixty-eizht horses and one solitary burro are stowed in the forward hold. Tempo- rary bunks have been put in between decks to accommodste 100 additional steerage passengers, while her cargo con- sists of the outfits of those going upon ber, averaging about 1500 pounds to the man, Dozens of boats are among this freigcht knocked down and ready to be put to- gether when the mountain pass is crossed, which leads over into the Yukon, She will tnke 350 passenwers, very largely from Sesttls, alihongh many other places in Washingion and all the other Pacific Coast States ate represented aboard. Among the noveities in tue way of out- | fits are a number of handcarts, in which adventurers expect to transpor: their supplies over the pass. Two men havesn comuination cart and sled, with two wheels at ihe center, a pair ol runners and handles at. ezch end. The wheels are to be unshipped when snow is reached. The scattering of the city’s police force by the Kloudyke rush has rosulted in ex- hausting the listof elizible under the civil seryice rules, The Civil Service Commissioners will cail an examination assoon as po-sible, in order to keep up the force. In the meantime Chief Reed has notified them that he will have fiiteen further vacancies on Lis force within a week. Unless pro- vided with men by the Civil Service Com- mission be will make temporary apvoin t- ments at his own disgretion, 24 the newly appointed Col- lector of Customs for Alaska, arrived here from Poriland to-night, and will iake passage to his post of duty on the Mexico to-morrow. Hall a dozen other Oregonians came in on the same train bound for the gold fieids of the Klon- dvke. TG WITHIN OUR TERRITORY. That Is Where a Great Part of the Northwest G ldfields Will Finally Bs Found. BOSTON, Mass, July 24.—A Washing- ton special says: “'A study of the map convinces me that the greater part of the goldfields of the Northwest will finally be found within the iimits ot our terri- tory,” said a scientific expert of the Gov- ernment Coast Survey to a correspondent to-day. *Iwentihrough Alaska asa mem- ber of the boundary commission and am very familiar with the valley of the Yukon and the surrounding country. The greatest activity in placer mining is now in the British possessions, about forty miles east of the 141lst meridian, which is our boundary. “But if yeu look at the map and see where gold has been found you will notice that all the lodes seem to lead into Alaska. There is a certain regularity about gold findings. South of the K'on- dyke in British Columbia is the Cariboo region, which was the scene of a former gold excitement. Then directly east of the panhandle of our Alaska Territory is the celebrated Cassiar country. Here are the herdwaters of the Pelly River, and the co.flience of the Lewis and Pelly make the Yukon, The richness of the Cassiar country has long been known, and it belongs to the same general trend, geo- logically speaking, as the Klond vke. ““Whenever the tributaries of these rivers have been prospected gold has generally been found. The Foriy-mile Creek, the Bixty-mile and the Birch Ureek are in- stances in point. The headwaters of all of these streams are in a group of moun- tains, the area of which is probably a thousand square miles. It is mostly un- explored, but largely within the territories of the United States, and it is doubtless rich with gold. Of ihe country further north we know little as yet. It is entirely lik 1y that placer mining can be carried on through this country for a distance of 500 miles. “‘Besides this trend of gold country par- allel to the west coast it will be ocbserved that there i+ another rem rkable region west of tie Coast rangs, ch converges into the same Ala kan territory. Bigin- ning at Juneau there is a great deal of quartz mning and near that town the si stamp mill in the world has been iy AL itat Bay, right unaer Mount St. thera is considerable placer muning and at Cooks Inlet and turther north still more mining.” - LUCK OF A WOMAN. Mrs. John T. Wills of Tacoma Try- Ing to Hcld a Clalm Worth a Quarter of # Mililon. TACOMA, Wasu., July 24—*Jimmy, the D.ver,” who nsed to be known as James McMahon of Old Tacoma, is trying to get something out of his $65.000 Kion- dyke stake. Last night he tacklel” a nickel-in-the-slot machine, raising the limit to 50 cents, and after about three hours’ bucking it was found that the ma- chine was nearly $300 ahead. McMahon returnen early in the week, and has been spencing his money freely at Old Tacoma resorts every evening since. He likes to be called “Jimmy, the Diver,” and all wlo thus salute him are cer of anin- vi n to enjoy his hospitalit A Tacoma woman has struck it on the Klonayke. Mrs. John T. Wilis, wife of a locksmith, went to Circle City two years ago and opened a restaurant. When the Klondyke reports first reached Circle City she went up and staked out a claim, but she has had some troub'e to hold ir, al- though she is confident of succeeding in the end. The claim is worth a quarter of a million. A letter received to-day from Fred Ewen at Dawson City says: “There isa great deal of drinking, and one sulaon is taking in from $1000 to §$1500 per day from the horny-handed miners. There are darcehouses, & sawmiil, four stor two barber-shops, a photozraph gallery, three doctors, and every known vrofession is represented here, and all are after the yellow stuff. There will have to be a great deal of building done before October 1, for there is scarcely a building in town as yet."” The steamer Monte Cristo of Everett will be refitted to run on the Yukon. She will 2o north early in August. Willlam E. Everett has been offered propogitions to go to the Kilondyke by mining men in San Francisco, New York, Denver and Chicago. He will accept one or two offers, in which Califorrians will be interested, and exvects to start north early in Augcust. Mrs. Kverett will ac- company him and they will probably re- msin several years, Dr. Everett firmly believes that several hardpan stratas with rich go!d-besring gravel on top will be found in the aurifer- ons Klondyke streams. He says the Yukon valley is now much higher than informer ages and that gold crush=d out of rock by glacial action formed phrt of the alluvial deposits carried down stream. B — CHARTER OF A SCHOONER. A Party of Elghty Will Sall From San Diego For the Northern Gold Flelds. SAN DIEGO, CaL, July 24 —Harry Robbins, superintendent of Spreckels’ wharf, and a party of local capitalists have purchased the schooner General McPherson, now in the Gulf of California, to take a big pariy of miners tovna for the Klondyke placers, to Juneau, Alaska, The McPnerson will sail from this port on or about Aungust 15 with eighty passen- gersand a fuil cargo of provisions, and hopes to arrive at Juneau within thirty days from date. The rate of passage has been fixed at $37 50, which also includea payment for 700 jounds of provisions and baggage. Already over forty berths have been en- gaged. The Kiondyke craze seems to grow daily, and many prominent citi- zens are preparing 1o depsrt for the new Ei Dorado. Among those who have lef: aiready is Howard B. Crittenden, a well- known real estate dealer, who will sail Wednesaay on the Excelsior. Others are W. A. Basset of the Merchanis’ National Bank and Edward und Charles Beven, cattle-men. Among those who will leave m three days are Csptain W. R. Forns- worth, A. L. Myers, Police Oflicer Dow, Dr. R. G. Hulbert, Dr. E. J. Fratt, Fred Samborn, C. E. Strehle and others. All are either men of means or are well staked by lccal backe: - — MANY OBSTACLES. Cecnsequently Some Who Start for the Klondyke Will Sufier Great Hardships. PORT TOWNSEND, Wasn., July 24.— Among the passengers who departed on the Queen yesterday were several resi- dents of this city. In many instances the go!d-seekers have sold the last of their possessions for fare and a grnb stake, and instead of a merry crowd, the Queen’s list was made up of a lot of gloomy, de‘er. mined men, who hzve thoroughly studied the hardships and dangers of the Klon- dyke trip and what ill luck means to them, Residents here, who have made the tip, say this unprecedented rush will result in a hiockade at Dyea, which cannot possi- biy be raised until spring. The Indians there, utilized as pack animals, are tradi- tionally lazy, and cannot, after aceumu- lating enough money for a debauch, be wheedled or forcea into working longer. Neighboring Indians cannot be pressed into service, as the Chiicats, whose home is near there, positively refuse to allow other tribes to do the work. ~ In 1889, when the first prospectors went over the pass to Lake Linderman, an at- tempt was made to use Sitka Indians for the packing. A tribal war was nearly pre- cipitated, a Sitka chief and four young bucks being ncsussinated while the white men comprising the party were forceld to barricade themselves in a loghouse until 150 men from Juneau arrived and drove off the Chiicats. As the entire tiibe, if wilting to work, s not capabie of packing over the divide the immenss outfits now going in, many of the miners will be forced to remain at Dyea, consuming sup- s until spring. Many men going In have barely enough provisions for the trip under the most favorable circum- stances, so the prospect of much suffering is apparent, even before the fortune- seekers are well started on their journey. Au appreciation cf this factis deterring the start of many who were all ready for the journey. Another setback resulted to-day from the announcement that the Canadian Government has sent officials to the north for the purpose of coliecting duties on all goods taken into the Klondyke. Asare- sult of this announcement many poorly provided prospectors have abandoned all hove of going in, but are disposing of their ouifits at a profit to others better supplied with funds. SRR FORM A COMPANY. Thirty Stockton Men Organize to Secure a slice of the Kon- dyke Fields. STOCKTON, CAL., July 24 —“There will be a stock company formed in this city to exploit the geldfields of Alaska. The project is now quie well under way. There haye been several conferences and the organization wiil take place before long.” The foregoing was given out to-day by a well-known professional man, who is one of the prime movers in the scheme. He did not want his name divulged, and mentioned some of the persons who were interested in it. Soon alter the labulous tales of wealth reached here, with the gold to back them up, there was a good deal of tulk. It was not confined alone to men of little means nor to any one voca- tion. Men of all callings, from the pick and shovel wielder to the professional man, talked of the wonderful finds and of some way to get at them. The outcome of this has been the proposed formation of a stock company here to bring some of the wealth to tuis city, The plan of proceeding is to get thirty men together. IEaich one will put up $200, making $6000 in all. The stockholders will not go io the Klondyke region, but will send other responsible men there. There will be a couple of practical miners, and the rest will be men who have a good knowledge of affairs in general, This party will be fitted out with clothing here and enough money given to the head ot the expedition to buy the otherneces aries in Alaska. C. A. Slack, E. M. Stehley, James G. Murrell, Heury F. Brink and Abe Gru- nauer of Tracy yesierday formed a co- partnership to send Granauer to the Klon- dyke god region. They will raise $1000 for the purpose, and what he makes is to be divided with his partners. A berth on the steamer Excelsior has been secured for him. L3 A Farty of Two Hundred. PHILADELPHIA, Pa. July 24—A party of 209 for the Kmm‘rko is forming here, Eich applicant is assessed $300 to cover transportation and two years’ sup- ply of provisions. A large number of employes of sireet railways have joined the band. As all tbe regular steamers have been completely sold up to the end of the season the plan for the 200 is to charter a steamer at Seattie to transport them and their provisions to Juneau, They will then be taken through Chilcoot to the head of navigation on the other side of the mountains, where they will be left to raft themselves to the mines. Another party is plannirg to go to San Francisco and charter a steamer from there to St. Michaels. — Golng From Santa Barbara. SANTA BARBARA, Cavn, July 24Tt rumors can be relied on there will be a number of persons leaving here next month and next spring for the Alaska gold fialds. Among those ot prominence who are preparing to go are Dr. Sidebotham, Luke Baxter and Frank Newman. Dr. Side- botham is a resident of Montecito, where he has a very pretty country sea‘, and is very prominent in* the social circles of Santa Barbara, This gentleman says that the gol 1 strike on the Kiondvke has not been reported fully, as he ias reason to know through United States officials. ——— “scout’” Ailison Going. WASHINGTON. D. C, July 24—Cap- tain E. H. Allison, known generally as “Scout’’ Allison, having served as a scout in the Department of Dakata Irom 1880 to 1885. is wrgan’'z'ng an expedition to the Alnskan gold fields. He has spent two years in Alaska and was on the Upper Yukon with a Government expedition several months. Captain Allison says there 1000 men in Washington who desire 10 go to the Klondyke. He says he has received many applications. e PESTERED BY VISITORS. Troubles of the French Canadlans Who Struck It Rich Up On the Klondyke. The party of French Canadians, just from Klondvke, have done as well on the whole as any other party of the same number who have as yet come down. Though quite reticent as to the exact amount of gold each one has brought out with him, they admit that they have each made good stakes and are well satisfied, besides having one or more valuable claims to make further drafts upon. They have been so continnally besieged since their arrival with questions that they are compelied to resort to subter- fuges to elude rcporters and other ques- tioners, the latter bging with few excep- tions entire strangers to any of the party, and many of them moved by no other mo- tive than curiosity—a desire to gaze upon and talk with a man who has *‘struck it rich’’ on the Klondyke. These gentlemen were at first very com- plaisant, and even when somewhat wear- ied of the increasing flow of cards und callers, beginning before they rose and only ending when they later retired to rest, they exhibited great patience; but it has now become unbearable, ana they are determined 1o have a rest and enjoy the privacy to which they are entitled. 1t assured that a man had some idea of making the journey to the Yukon they are not averse 1o answering all proper questions that wilt afford information useful to him, and even volunteering some advice on points that an inexperi- enced man wonid nevsr think of, but their lives have really been made burden some by the ceareless reiteration of foolish questions that only find birth in the brain of the idle gosips, who only seek to build foundations for tales to be told again and again 1o others like themselves who have nt had the priviiege of interviewing a Klondyke placer prince. While these gentleruen are entirely ready to vouck for the richness of the Klondyke mines and the returns that have been gathered and what is in sight to be yet taken out, they are seriously concerned lest their representations should lexd some one to rush off to the north with tho expectation of picking up a fortunein a season, without proper con- sideration of the difliculties to be en- countered, and the hardships to be under- gone before they make a sirige. Said one of them: ““There i3 not a foot of ground on Bonanza or any of the other creeks emptying into the Kiondyke for miles up that has not been thoroughly scrutin zed, and everything of promise already wken up. Some of the creeks, T Dorado and Victoria for instarce, have been located from the moutn to th: head. At first the men would not stop to mark aclaim where the dirt d.d not pan vut at least $5 a pan, and sfter some $400 and $500 pans had beea got outfrom down next to ‘bedrock,” “The rule on El Doradoand the Bonanza branches generally was to dump the up- ver strata off to one side and look only after the rich pay streak at the bottom. “Later on, however, when the men from the upper parts of Forty-mile, Birch Creek and other places began to get into the Kiondyke. and all the good-paying ground was taken up, the later-comers either went prospecting farther up the river or contented themse.ves with taking and working claims which, thovgh poor in comparison with the bes’, yet paid them fairly well As vew finds would be reported they would abandon these to try for something better elsewibere, and their place would be taken by iater arrivals, who accustomed to the cowmparatively woder- ate returns in the older diggings, were well satisfied until they, too, caught the ‘big strike’ fever, and moved on farther up the river. In this way some of tne claims in the lower Bonanza Val.ey have had from three to seven owners from the time they were first located,” There are many men working on the “lay” (on shares) during this season, but there will be very little of it hereafter, as most of the claim-owners are expecting to sell out when they get their price, and lay-working hurts the sale of the prop- erty. The men are not satisfied to work the ground as it eomes, but burry down to the pay streak to quick fortune, dumping the dirt taken out over the ground as may be most convenient to their object, necessitating 1ts rehandling to reach the ground on which it rests, which will be an objection in the eyes of a prospective purchaser. Hereafter most of the claims will be worked systematically without ignoring everything above to get to the pay streak. All of this party yet hold their claims, having left them in charge of men who are working them, with the exception of Mmr. Mocin, who will go to his home at Riviere du Loup, Province of Quebec, with a jortune sufficient for the res: of his life. He has had enough of the Yukon coun- try, and unless compelled by business in- terests to make the journey again will be satisfied to have his property—No. 22, El Dorado, and No. 26, Hunker—in the hands of agents. Mr. Picotte has a half interest in two clums on Bonanza and one on Ei Dorado Creek, and will return next season after he has had sometfiing of civilized life to compensate bim for the hard life he has led for nine years past on the Yukon. Mr. de Roche will return next seascn, after a visit to his home in Montreal, to his claim—No. 20, El Dorado. The ers will also return after visiting their homes in Canada, as will an Amer- ican, Mr. Orr, who is with them. While Orr has brought out sometking bstween $20,000 anc $40,000 he will return next season for more, naving & good claim on El Dorado Creek. A young German who came out with :h's party brought something like $20,000 with him which he earned by working other men’s claims on the ‘‘lay,” having no claim of his own. WANTS T0 B:Z A Retired Presbyteran Minis‘er Claims to Have the Fower of Risur- rec..cn. BOSTON, Mass, July 24—A Portland (Me.) special says: Dr. H. A, McLean, well-known retired Presbyterian minis- ter, who was for a time at the Salem Wi lows this summer and who while there delivered lectures attacking Ingersoll and other exponents of free thought and also zave exhibitions of faith-healing, is now at Portland. He claims to have power of resurrection and announces that he will repeat the resarrection as performed by Christ. He claims to have gone from here by divine direction to Old Orchard, where he has been attending Dr. Bates’ lectures and also those of Francis Murphy. Frcm Oid Orchard he cla:ms to have been divinely led to Portland. He hopes to be buried alive at Riverton, a populardeering resort. He said that if given the necessary per- mit he would demonstrate to the most skeptical that what Curist had done could be done again, and that he would suffer himself to be buried ina cotlin under taree or four feet of earth, and there he would remain for forty days without food or water, and he specifically stated that there will be no tube or communication with the oven air, such as has been used where persons under hypnotic influence have been interred. *‘1 shall arrange, provided the necessary permit is granted, for the construction of a coffin under my own direction,” he said, “There will be apertures in the swes of this coffin whiak will admit what air that may percolate through the porous ground which I will select and wherein the grave will be dug. As a guarantee against any trickery or subterfuve I wiil deposit the sum of $1000 as a reward for the discovery of any trickery. ““And do you expect that life will be sustained all that time?”" was asked. “Yes, but not by food. The Spirit and the belief in God will sustain me.” He will make a strong effort to obtain the necessar y official consent to his being buried alive. BURIED ALIVE. —_— Murdsvei by « Masked Man. WALOQ, Tex., July 24 —John B, Danial, the weli-known Populist publisher and sclicitor for fraternal orders, was murdered this morning. Hearing a noise in the woodshed, ne advanced with pistol in hand. He was met in the doorway by a masked man. Both fired simulianeously. Daniel’s heart was merced by a bull-t.

Pacificos Yet Dying From Starvation, Fever and Smallpox. Condition of the Spanish Troops Sont Azalnst ths Insurgents Is Alzo Pltifu’. LONDON, Exc., July 24.—The Chronicle orints details from its correspendent in Bagua, Cubs, of the unspeakable cruelty of Weyler’s attempts to repress the revo- lution. Itsays: Weyler ignores the dis- tricts where Cuba libre is an es:ablished iact. Itistrne he nolds a few towns there at great cost, but they are in reality be- sieged. In the west of Cuba is a Lowling waste, though once the best portion of the island. The insurgeuts roam at pleasure, | dodging leavy columns. Pacificos are still dying of starvation, yellow fever or | smallpox. I: szems impossivle to finda | redeeming feature in the barosrous order | which compels peciticds under pain of death to abandon tneir homes to the torches of soldiers and seek ‘‘protection’ in Spanish towns. Tuis vprotection, so called, provided reservations of any waste land near the cities, where pacificos could build “pala- tial’” residences as they liked with paim- leaves. This act ot compulsory starvation of thousands will add another blot on the ready disgusting many of the leaaing officers in the coiony, who are not slow now in condemning the fatuous policy of the captain-general. The condition of the Spanish troops is nearly as pitiful. Poor, ragged Spanish boys are plodding wearily along in nearly soleless shoes and torn suits till they fail exhausted and perish by the road-ide for lack of medical stores. Lastly, the msur- gents, driven to desperation by agzres- sion, have perhaps a better time than the | 8] ish soldiers, but when captured there is little left for them, neither mercy nor quarter. “Weyler has caused every day prisoners to beexecuted for the *crime of reb:llion.” Before the final scene I hear, on the authority of eye-witnesses, that inguisi- torial tortures are resorted to, if the vic- tim i< suspected of withholding informa- tion,"” N SEBASTIAY, Sparx, July 24 —In an interview to-day Prime Minister Cano- vas, who was here with the court, re- marked that Woodford, the new Ameri- can Minister, had displayed no haste to | reach Spain and present his letters of | credit. He added the Government was awaiting a dispatch from Weyler, giving his opinion of the proposed customs re- forms in Cuba. HAVANA, Cusa, July 24.—Dispatches from Madrid say that Sagasta bkas de- clared the Cuban situation very grave and fears the reception by the Quecn Regent of the new American Minister may give rise to hostile demonstrations in Spain. General Pundo has declared the Cuban war must end soon for Spain’s own sake. General Pando nas joined the Conserva- tive faction. In answer to such talk by his opponents Canovas has declarea the Cuban war will certainly end in the tri- umph of Spain in December or January next, and that by force of arms without any cessions to tine insurgents. The official declaration of Spanish losses in engagements since February 24, 1895, shows 22,700 Spaniards have been killed in attle. DIEVAD PaSHA Al CANEA, The Mew Turkich <ommander Legarded With Li favor. CANEA, CreTe July 24 —Djevad Pasha, the newly appointed commanler of the Turkish forces, landed to-day anl was ssluted by the Jurkish fort. Theaudmirals commanding toreign fleets declined to either salute or visit him, declerinz that there no need for such formality on sion of « mere chaoge in the com- of the Turkish troops. The Consus ave a similar exense, but said they would return his visit in a civil capacity. Itis feared that Djevad Pasua will prove an evii influence in tue settle- ment of the Cretan question. The Cretan delogates have again in- formed Admiral Canevaro, commander of the allied fleets, that they will accept no arranvement until the Ottoman troops have departed from the island. : The insurgenis consider that the arrival of Djevad indicates the intention of the Porte to retain a garrison in Crete in de- tiance of the powers, LONDON, Exe., July 24—A dispatch from Constantuinople says tire rec 1fication of the Turko-Grecian frontier consists of the concession of 400 :quare kilometers ot territory to Turkey, —— .

LONDON, Exa., July 24 —The greatest rossible interest is felt throughout Eu- rope in the Andree polar expedition. All the pigzeon stories of the past two days have now been rejected as mistakes or hoaxes. Both geographers and seronauts whose opinions are entitied 1o respect ex- press strong hopes of the success of the exped.tion. All agres it will be almost impossible to receive authentic news yet; and there is a probability of a long delay. An expert aeronaut whom Andree fre- quently consulted says: *The polar regions 1n summer offer the best imaginable bailooning opportunitie | Tkere is continuous daylizht and lis w | variation of temperature. If Andree were to start from the Mediterrancan o make a balloon journey to the Baltic he would not have a task less easy than the journey. on which he has departed. He would not have the same risks, certainly, in a jour- ney over Europe, because if he fell bhe would always be within civilization, biit be would have the change grom dav to night to contend with and an infinitely variable temperature.” | Tne meteorological conditions under which the start was made cause interest- ing comments from experts. The balloon when it started rose 600 feet and appeared to travel north-northeast aboul twenty- two miles an hour. This is declared to be a normal rate of speed. The suriace wind of ten miles becomes twenty miles on ris: ing a few hundred feet, It is calculated the wind doubles in speed as the balloon rises from 100 to 1000 feet. There is no reason why such a wind shou'd not ¢on= tinue to the pols and some distance be- yond. Whether the path is cury d or straight a balloon would take is most.un= certain. A point of wind might curve roand an area of low barometric pressure | and carry the bailoon, if it maintained the same clevation, until it traveled along the meridisn of 140 degrees west longi- tude. This, however, is unliksly. If.the balloon rose, as was likely, into loftier strata according to well known laws of at- mospheric motion its path would tend 1o diverge to the right ana carry it either siraight over the pole or toward Eastern | Siberia.
