He also brought numerous and rare specimens of natural history. Peary's Report of Ills Trip. Lieutenant Peary sent to the Arctic l Club the following report of the opera- tlonsof the expedition since August 9, j 1901: Left Frlck Harbor, on the Ellstnere Coast, August 29. Tbo party reached Payer Harbor, September It, crossing R008Q Bay partly by sled and partly by boat, then walking across Bedford Plm. About a week later my Eskimos began to fall sick, not one escaping. By No vember 13 adults and one child were dead. Nearly all the others were very weak, but out of danger. Early In January Eski mos came from Anvlllk, bringing news of the ravages of a fatal epidemic through the tribe. Word was sent back by these scouts for as many of tho survivors as could come to me, and by the end of the month they began arriving. "In February a large depot of dog fooa was established near Cape Lculs Napo leon, some 60 miles north of Sabine. Op March 3 my advance guard party of six sledges In charge of Henaer left for Con ger; March 6, started wth the main party of IS sledges, leaving Percy in charge at Payer Harbor. Conger was reached In 12 marches, arriving within an hour or two of the advance party. My supporting party of Eskimos returning from Conger brought down the Instruments, chronom eters and Arctic library. Eight marches more took us to Cape Hecla. The north end of Robinson Channel was all ope,n across to the Greenland coast, lakes of water extending northward as far as could be seen from Black Cape and Cape Ransome. From Hecla another support ing party returned. "April 1 started northward over the Polar Sea with Henscn, four Eskimos and six sledges. Old floes, covered deep with snow, and intersected with rubble ridges and lanes of young Ice were encountered, the same kind of traveling, except the lanes of Ice, as found by the English ex-pedltion-of 1876. Floes in Motion Encountered. "After six marches, open leads and floes In motion were encountered. Two natives were sent back. As -we advanced, the floes became smaller, the pressure ridges on a grander scale, and the open leads more frequent Each day's march was more perilous, and our general course de flected west by the character of the ice. Finally, at S4:17 north latitude, northwest of Hecla, the polar pack became Imprac ticable, arid further efforts to advance were given up. New leads and prossure ridges, with foggy weather, made our re turn In some respects more trying than the advance. Hecla was regained April 29, and Conger May 3. Leaving Conger May 6, Cape Sabine was reached on the 15th. A few days later went north as far as Cape Louis Napoleon, to complete the survey of Babbitt Bay, returning the first .. of Junp. "My proposed trip across Ellsmere Land westward was prevented by open weather in Buchanan Bay. The Jce broke up ear- ller than In 131, aod Payer Harbor was blockaded almost continuously. Windrrard Bares Way Threads' Ice. "The Windward bored her way through the ice and entered the harbor the morn ing of August 5, and got out again the same- afternoon with scarcely 15 minutes to spare before the harbor was closed by the Ice. Forclnsr our way acroas Smith Sound.- my Eskimos, with their belongings, wro Jn jneriefleld Gulf. Several aays were aevoiea to hunting walrus ana the Windward started southward, reach ing and leaving Cane York the afternoon - of August 23. Calling at Godhaven. Greenland, and Cape Haven, .Baffin Land, the Windward arrived at Chateau Baj; Labrador, September 14, and sent dis patches. "The Summer voyage has been with out mishap, and the Windward, with her engines, has made as good time as the larger and more powerful ships that have been- going North the last 10 years. The year at Payer Harbor was passed com fortably, though an anxious strain caused by the ravages of disease among my faithful people was not light. Food was abundant, and our supply of musk ox and aeer meat continued throughout the year. The northern sledge trip In the Spring was arduous, but not marked by special exposure, suffering or danger more than Is necessarily Incidental to serious Arctic work. "Equipment and personnel were satisfac tory, and further advance was vetoed by Insuperable natural conditions. The Wind ward has on board the instruments, chro nometers and Arctic library abandoned by the Grcely expedition, and numerous specimens of natural history, bear, musk- ox, reindeer and walrus skins, the skele ton of a two-horned, narwhal, a Tare Arc tic specimen, also living specimens of musk-ox, walrus, Arctic hare and Eskimo aog, arc on Dqard, "The anchor and chain lost by Frlk last Summer Is on board. The Fram left God- haven about August 21, bound for home. tsne nao Been in Bonier Sound, wjience it Is understood explorations were made to the Northwest Ono death (a fireman) Is reported since. Others on board said to be well. The little schooner Forgot Me Not, which was caught In the ice at tape Haven last year, Is now on her way to St. John's." Peary will go to New York tomorrow and the Windward will nrobablygo to Newfoundland for the Winter. WENT FAR UP THE NILE. American Covers Ground Hitherto Unvlslted by Europeans. LONDON. Sept. 18.
