A few miles from here an Eskimo gentleman named Artisarlook (people call him Charley) owned a herd of about 100 When Jarvis came along, Charley cheerfully gave his deer to the Government, and he and Dr. Call drove them to Cape Prince of Wales to | join the others. Jarvis, meanwhile, had pushed on and collected the Prince of Wales herd. The natives here were just as nice about it, and Mr. Lopp not only turned over the deer in his charge, but, at great self-sacrifice, left his wife and three children among the natives here, with no wHNite person near them, and started for Point TOW. Jarvis and Call started ahead on dog s following the co: On the next y Lopp left his reindeer station, a back of this place, and set v 400 deer and seven herd- ook no dog teams because the apt to be stampeded by dogs. 530 a deer. d few mil h 0 iers are to receive their services.

From there Mr. Lopp and four natives drove 400 reind all the way to is fact, and not a Arrived at Point Bar- and one other herder were left to take e of the whole herd. The expeditio has been perfectly successful. But in sending out the na- tives to shoot wild reindeer, of which they brought in over 700, Charles Brov agent of the Liebes Trading Company, did more for the whalers stranded there than this whole expedi- tion would have accomplished had they redeived no othe ald. Yet in the States it s not known what resources were at hand there. The fact that, owing to Mr. Brower, there has been no real need of outside assistance Point Barrow. row, Charle should not detract in the slightest de- | gree from the credit that belongs to the members of the Arctic relief expe- dition. Bertholf, Dr. Call and Mr. Lopp, to say nothing of Charley and the other herd- ers, went through great hardships and did wonderfully good work. The rest of us had a very lonesome winter away from civilization and showed our good | intentions, although we could do noth- ing more. | ed the coast Lieutenant Jarvis, Lieutenant | done and Jarvis was disclosed to the astonished gaze of the Lopp family. They lost no time in getting ready, and by the time that Call and Char- lev arrived with the other) herd, Lopp was ready to start. But Jarvis and Call started on February 2, the day be- fore Lopp got underway. They follow- line. Arriving at Cape Espenberg, they thought a crossing was impracticable, so they went on to the next cape and then crossed to Cape Blossom. They they met Bertholf, who had been delayed bv bad weather in which the natives would not travel, and had arrived there only the day be- fore. They got provisions from him and Jarvis instructed him to awalt the reindeer herd. Then they pushed on to Point Hope and from there to Point Barrow, reaching that point on March 29, having been three' months and thir- teen days on the trip from Cape Van- couver, where we landed them on De- cember 16. Bertholf was delayed a few days at Tununak waiting for dogs. But he reached St. Michael the day Jarvis left there. Orders were left, however, for him to get together 1700 pounds of pro- visions and to transport them across country to Cape Blossom, in Kotzebue Sound. Difficulty was experienced in getting dogs, and he had to go over to Golevine Bay to get some there. Returning to his base at Norton Bay, he started across, and, In spite of dis- couraging delays, reached his station on time. He supplied Jarvis, and after- ward Lopp. Then he went on with Lopp, and when the latter turned north he went on to Point Hope, where Jarvis directed him to remain. It was a great thing for Lieutenant Jarvis and Dr. Call to reach the whalers at Point Barrow, but, had they been starving, the whalers would not readily have eaten them, however much they liked them. For that matter they had got too thin to be palatable. Now Bertholf would have been another proposition. He kept his fat and good nature throughout. So the success of the expedition re- lied on Mr. Lopp and his reindeer herd. Jarvis told him that, knowing little of the animals, he would push on and leave the work and the credit entirely with Lopp. And Mr. Lopp came up to expectations and went away beyond them. At Cape Espenberg, learning that Jarvis was stalled about thirty miles to the eastward short of provisions, and, | distrusting the natives there, he char- tered a dog team from the native vil- lage, went down to Jarvis, found him all right, then returned to Cape Espen- berg. There he thought it impossible to cross the ice to Cape Krusenstern, as it was piled into high hummocks and ridges, and he thought the deer would not drive over such roads. The natives thought it could be done, and it was done. They had nearly crossed when the deer stampeded and nearly reached Cape Espenberg again before the seven cowboys could turn them. When they got to the other side Lopp found a sign- board with a letter from Jarvis telling him that Bertholf was at Cape Blos- som. So down there went Lopp, found Bertholf and brought him and his pro- visions to the herd. About the vicinity of the Waleek River, Lopp turned to the north, while Bertholf went to Point Hope. He over- took Jarvis and Call at the mouth of the Pitmagea River and they went on together as far as the Kukpowrak. It was found that the dogs and deer did not go well together, although the deer Wwere being driven as fast as the dogs could go. But of course there had to be more time taken for camping each night and herding in the deer than would be necessary to unhitch the dogs and get supper. Every day Lopp sent men ahead to prepare the éamp, and he showed excellent generalship throughout. So, leaving Jarvis at the Kukpowrak River, he struck into the interior, while Jarvis continued along the coast line as before. Mr. Lopp reached Point Barrow on March 30, with 400 reindeer which he had driven over the icy wastes as fast as the others could go alone in dog sleds. His journal shows that he had the deer on the run most of the time. When Jarvis reached Point Barrow | Shortly after picking up Bertholf, thir- he found every thanks to the ment of Mr Brower. There was been any. whalers gave him while he was there. Jarvis did find, however, that the men were too closely packed into two | houses, while the officers were living in comparative luxury. So he took charge of affairs and made the officers take their share of the men into their e. iderable sickness. He reports that two men have been lost. The cook of the Rosario, name not known to me, was frozen to death, and a man named Kelley of the Orca | fell into the stern hole of the Belvidere and was drowned. The stern hole is a clear place which the crew keep around the stern of a vessel frozen in the ice so that the rudder and screw can be worked in case of necessity. There have been two cases of scurvy, now nearly cured. The names of the vic- tims have not been sent down. Briefly told, the story of the over- land expedition is this: Lieutenant Jar- | to see Bertholf In the midst of a howl- | ing blizzard, sitting on a dog sled and vis and Dr. Call left Tununak and went straight to St. Michael, thence to Unalaklik, thence to Golovine Bay. There they met Dr. Kittleson, assistant superintendent of the United States Reindeer Station, and now in charge of the station. He was on his way from Port Clarence to Unalaklik with the Government herd of reindeer, but turn- ed back with Jarvis and piloted him over the moutains to Point Rodney. Then he returned to his herd. At Point Rodney Dr. Call was left to come along with Charley and his rein- deer, while Jarvis lost no time in reaching Lopp. Mr. Lopp’s house was buried in the gnow and the door was reached through & long tunnel. Mrs. Lopp met him at the door and promptly told her husband that there was a native there who spoke English. They let him in and Lopp said, “Who are vou?” Jarvis told him to guess. He guessed “Driggs” from Point Hope. Jarvis told him to guess again. Finally he suggested that Lopn could find out for himself if he would kindly brush the snow and ice off his face.

Only twenty-eight deer were lost by accident and for food Nine of them | were lost on the ice pack crossing Kot- zebue Sound. Jarvis reached Cape Prince of Wales | on January 25. He left on kebruary 2, reached Point Hope on February 20 and Point Barrow March 29. Lopp left Point Barrow on his return trip on April 5, and got home to Cape Prince of Wales in thirty-one days, only twenty of which were traveling days, for he met some weather in which he could not travel, and he would not travel on Sun- day when he was proceeding on his own account. The lowest temperature that he experienced was 43 degrees be- low zero. But he told me that was not half so cold as one day when the ther- mometer was at 40 degrees below zero and it was blowing a blizzard. Bertholf reached Point Hope on March 1. He was in much better con- dition that the others from this ship, and Lopp says it was simply delightful rolling a cigarette. The, deer were left about thirty miles from Point Barrow, at a spot where they could get plenty of moss, their principal food. Lieutenant Jarvis did not think it ad- visable to rigk the lives of the men in an attempt to reach Point Hope. He was_ able to increase their rations a lit- tle, and with this increase they have enough provisions to last until August, when we will probably be able to reach them. The whalers are all in rags and it is doubtful if we can get enough clothing to cover them when they come on board. Jarvis writes that clothing and | bedding will be needed for 100 men. ‘Without doubt these men owe their Ifves to Charies Brower. He has shown him- self equal to any emergency. If we get any more reports of suffering at Point Barrow, the country can rest easily and let Mr. Brower attend to it. The Bear left Unalaska on June 14, having stayed there one week longer than originally intended, because the people there asked for our protection. SANTIAGO STORES LOOTED BEFORE THE SURRENDER GENERAL TORAL BROKEN-HEARTED OVER DEFEAT Starving ,Spaniards Sack the|Every One of His Generals dand - Colonels Fell During the Business Pldces and Residences. SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July 17.— Bince 4 o'clock this morning a stream of refugees has been pouring into the city, some naked and all hungry and footsore. Many have fallen by the wayside. The town of Santiago presents a dis- mal sight. Most of the houses have been sacked and the stores have all been looted and nothing to eat can be had “for love or money.” In the streets of the city this morning, at the entrenchments, at the breastworks and at every hundred feet or so of the barbed-wire fences were the living skeletons of Spanish soldlers. Among the arrivals to-day were the German, Japanese and Portuguesa Con- suls and their families, the British and French Consuls having arrived day be- fore yesterday. General Pando was never here, but 3500 men from Manzanillo arrived on %:)lgr 8, making the total garrison here The contact mines in the harbor were removed the day Admiral Cervera left, but two chains of electric mines, one from Estrella Point and the other from Socapa, are down yet. The armament of the shore batteries of Santiago consists of five brass 6-inch muzzle-loaders in the Morro fortifica- tions, two 6-inch Hontorias from the cruiser Reina Mercedes and three 21- centimeter mortars, never used, in the Sccapa upper battery; two useless 21- centimeter mortars, two 8-centimeter muzzle-loaders and four 8-centimeter fleld pieces in the Estrella battery; one 57-millimeter and one 25-millimeter Nordenfeldt and one 37-millimeter Hotchkiss in the Socapa lower battery, and two 6-inch Hontorias, two 9-centi- meter Krupp and two 15-centimeter mortars at Punta Gorda. Four Spanish merchant steamers— the Mortera, the Reina de los Angeles, the Tomas Brooks and the Mexico—and the gunboat Alvarado are now in the harbor. The market place has been sacked by the troops. Twenty-two thousand refugees are quartered at El Caney, 5000 at Firmexa and 5000 at Cubitas el Boniato, where they have been living for a fortnight. In one case 500 were crowded into one building, which was a regular pigsty, with a horrible stench. The Spanish troops lald down their arms at 9 o'clock this morning. They will be camped two miles outside of the city limits, under guard, until their embarkation takes place. The docks are crowded by incoming refugees in a starving condition, await- ing the arrival in the harbor of the Red Cross steamer State of Texas, as there are no eatables to be bought in the city. The entrance of the refugees was quiet and peaceful, they viewing their wrecked homes philosophically, as the fortune of war. Admiral Sampson’s last bombardment of Santlago wrecked fifty-seven houses in the city, causing heavy damage. SPAIN MAY ANOTHER FLEET ACROSS THE SEA Proposes to Divide the Remain- ing Squadron Under Camara. NEW YORK, July 17.—The Wash-| arrive on Tuesday night or Wednes- ington correspondent of the Herald sends the following: Information has reached the Government that with a view to protecting her own coast and embarraseing this country in its oper- ations against Porto Rico, the Spanish authorities are thinking of dividing what remains of the Spanish navy and sending a portion of it to American waters. This Government, however, expects to be able to divide its forces s0 as to not only dispatch Commodore Watson to Spain’s coast with a formid- able force, but to retain under Rear Admiral Sampson’s command a fleet Wwhich will protect the blockading | squadron off Porto Rico and Cuba, the North Atlantic Coast and the troop- ships which will convey the army of in- vasion to Porto Rico. The effect of the formation of these two squadrons will be to cause the authorities to retain a stronger force in Western waters. It was positively announced by Secretary Long before the fall of San- tiago that as soon as_that clty‘was occupied Commodore Watson would sail east. It 18 expected his departure will occur the -atter part of this week, although the new Spanish plans may put a new aspect on the matter. The auxillary cruiser Yankee, with ammunition for the battleships Oregon and Massachusets, left Norfolk this afternoon for Santiago, where she will SEND day. Commodore Watson will send one of his ships to Hampton Roads to convoy colliers to rendezvous near the coast of Spain, which has been selected. It is evident that in any event the fleet cannot possiblv leave before the latter part of this week, by which time, the authorities say, Spain’s naval plans will have developed and thev will know whether she intends to divide her squadron or keep it intact for the pro- tection of her coast. In the latter case, as already stated, all of the battle-ships under Rear Ad- miral Sampson’s command may accom- pany Commodore Watson, but should there be any danger of a force being sent by Spain to the westward it will be necessary to retain several of them under Rear Admiral Sampson’s com- mand, as it is appreciated by the au- thoritles that a~ force will have to be kept at a convenient point to protect the blockading squadrons off Porto Rico and Cuba and the North Atlantic Coast. Should Spain send a fleet to this side of the Atlantic it cannot possibly ar- rive under three weeks. By this time the authorities hope to have the army of invasion landed in Porto Rico. Even should a force come to this side of the Atlantic no great danger would follow, for the simple reason that there are no counling depots at which it could ob- tain fuel and it would be placed in the :lame position as was Admiral Cervera's leet. When the tide of travel st;irr(ted toward ichael, however, we left. St he Toth, we reached St. Law- rence Island, at the west end, having seen no ice whatever. On the forenoon of that day we tried to reach Indian Point on the Siberian coast, but turned back on account of ice. The next day the same thing happened. Then we worked through the ice to St. Lawrence Bay, Siberia, reaching there on June 22.” 'We met the steam whaler Willlam Bayles there, all well on board, and from them learned that Lopp had re- turned from Point Barrow. So we left there this morning and came over here, arriving just after noon. On his return to Cape Prince of Wales Mr. Lopp sent the news over- land to St. Micahel. The steam whal- ers Jeanette and XKarluk also had stopped in here and then had gone to 8t. Michael. We are to leave at once for that point, but the news will have gone down on the Bertha, in all probability, before we arrive. DESPERATION OF THE MADRID AUTHORITIES Pleading for Morocco’s Neutrality, Which They Threaten to Enforce If Necessary. K don Bennett. GIBRALTAR, July 17.—Senor Emilo O. Jeda, Spanish Minister at Tangler, who returned there to-day, states that he has received instructions from Madrid to use every effort to force Morocco to declare itself neutral. His excellency will to-mor- row call together the representatives of other powers in order to bring as much pressure as possible to bear on Mohamed Torres, Moorish Minster of Foreign Af- fairs. 3 It has been resolved to enforce neu- trality if necessary, and if Americans should try to disembark they would be massacred by the Spanish population. An appeal will also be made to the powers to make a naval demonstration in Moor- ish waters. This proposal Is said to be favorably viewed by the French, Rus- sian and German Governments. o HOW TORAL’S ARMY IS TO BE SENT TO SPAIN Programme So Changed That Bids of American Ship Owners Will Be Entertained. NEW YORK, July 17.—The Herald's ‘Washington correspondent telegraphs: There have been two charges in the pro- gramme first contemplated for the trans- portation of General Toral’s army from Santiago to Spain. American ship owners may send in bids, although Colonel Hech- her told me yesterday that only mneutral ships would be considered. Colonel Hech- ner believed then that American vessels would necessarily require convoys. To- day, however, he sald the bids of Ameri- can trnn?ormtlon companies would be considered with others. The second change in the programme is that the feeding of the prisoners will be turned over to the transportation com- anies. The problem of transportation of hese prisoners seems somewhat con- fused. Should American vessels go to Spain with the prisoners the ports of Spain might, for some trumped-up rea- son, refuse the landing. This also was discussed at a conference this morning ‘which Secretary Alger and Colonel Hech- ner attended, but bids from American ship owners will be considered. DISCUSSING PLANS FOR PORTO RICAN CAMPAIGN Important Conferences at the White House Between the President and His Advisers. NEW YORK, July 17.—A Washington speclal to the Herald says: Rear Ad- miral S8ampson and some of the vessels under his command will leave Santiago the latter part of this week for Porto Rico, as President McKinley and his ad- visers believe no time should be lost in operating against the Spanish force there. Rear Admiral Sicard, Captain Crownin- shield and Captain Mahan were at the ‘White House this morning discussing} naval plans with the President and again to-night they weére closeted with the Chief Executlve, Secretary Long and Sec- retary Alger, perfecting plans for the Joint action of the navy and army. These plans will be communicated to fiear Ad- miral Sampson before his departure from Santiago. Secretary Long, after the con- ference to-night, admitted that general plans for continuing the war were under discussion, but what their nature was he naturally declined to state. The first measure to be inaugurated will be the enforcement of an effective blockade. RESIGNS AS PRESIDENT OF BROWN UNIVERSITY Dr. Andrews Accepts the Position of Buperintendent of Schools in Chicago. PROVIDENCE, R. L, July 17.—The res- ignation of Dr. E. Benjamin Andrews as | president of Bro'vn University, to accept the position of superintendent of schools in Chicago, has been recelved here by Rev. Thomas D. Anderson, secretary of the Brown University corporation. The resignation is to take effect at once.

ON BOARD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH-BOAT WANDA, OFF JUARAGUA, July 16 (via Port Antonio and Kingston, Jamalica, July 17).—The formal sanction by the Ma- drid Government as to the terms of the capitulation to-day unraveled the | skein of demands and counter-demands between the opposing commanders, which threatened yesterday to end the negotiations and compel a return to arms. The agreement is of nine ar- ticles. It declares: First—That all hostilities shall cease %eot:ldlng the agreement of fingl capitula- Second—That the capltulation includes all the Spanish forces and the surrender flf'n l’xtlé ‘war material within the prescribed Third—The trnnsrortulon of troops to Spain at the earliest possible moment, each force to be embarked at the nearest port. Fourth—That the Spanish officers shall retaln their side arms, and the enlisted men their personal property. Fifth—That after the final capitulation the Spanish forces shall assist in the re- moval of all obstructions to navigation in santh\%o harbor. Sixth—That after the final capitulation the commanding officers shall furnish a complete inventory of all arms and mu- nitions of war, and a roster of all the soldiers in the district. Seventh—That the Egmlsh general shall be permitted to take the military archives and the records with him. Eighth—That all guerrillas and Spanish irregulars shall be permitted to remaln in Cuba, if they so elect, filvlng a parole that they will not again take up arms against the United States until properly released from parole. Ninth—That the Spanish forces shall be permitted to march out with all the hon- ors of war, depositing their arms, to be disposed of by the United States in the future, the Américan commissioners to recommend to their Government that the arms of their soldiers be returned to those “who bravely defended them.” The articles were signed yesterday afternoon after a four hours’ session of the commissioners, who agreed that the terms of capitulation should await the sanction of the Madrid Government. General Toral, the white-haired com- mander of the Spanish forces, was present throughout the session and ap- peared to be utterly heartbroken. He spoke bitterly of the fate which com- pelled him to sue for peace, but had no word to say against the gallant men who had conquered his army. He de- clared that he had little chance to win. “I would not desire to see my worst enemy play with the cards I held,” he said to one of the commissioners. “Every one of my generals was killed or wounded. I have not a single colonel left and am surrounded by a powerful enemy. We have counted sixty-seven ships off this port. “And besideés,” he continued, wearily waving his hands toward the city, “I have secret troubles there.” Speaking of the battle of June 24, in which the Rough Riders and a part of General Young's command parti- cipated, General Toral said that less than 2000 Spanish troops were engaged, his loss being 265. He would not say how many Spaniards were killed at El Caney and before Santiago. “Heavy, heavy,” he said, dejectedly. In response to an inquiry he sald that transportation would be required for between 22,000 and 25,000 men, there be- ing that many in the capitulated dis- trict. He informed the officers that Santiago harbor had been again mined since Admiral Cervera left. General Miles remained at Juragua during the completion of the agreement yesterday and a copy of the articles was sent to him by General Shafter this morning. “That is splendid,” he said, “we have everything we came after.” General Miles went to Guantanamo to-day, and it is repcrted he will re- main there until the Washington Gov- ernment definitely decides about the Porto Rico campaign. A large number of troop ships are lying off here, and it is believed that a large part of General Shafter’s army will be moved soon. : .noooOOOooo% S o ., COnqe == cn0® BRIGADIER-GENERAL CHAMBERS McKIBBIN, TEMPORARY MILITARY GOVERNOR OF SANTIAGO.
