Norwegian Explorer Started North to Greenland In the Sum mer of 1003. . SEATTLE, Wash., Dec. 6. Ronald Amundsen, the first man "in history tct succeed in making the Northwest Pas sage from cast to west, is still at Fort Egbert, Alaska, waiting for an answer to the message he last night sent to Nansen. In Chrlstlania. His appeal for funds and assistance has borne fruit. The Norwegians of this city have wired, him money. From the fact that Amundsen and his expedition are in Winter quarters near the mouth of the Mackenzie River, his object, which he made public be fore leaving Chrlstlania, in May, 1903, has been fulfilled. In an article pub lished In the Terrestrial Magnetism, In March, 1303, these excerpts are taken from Amundsen"3 statements of what he hoped to accomplish: He proposes to start North during the early Summer, stopping- at Codhaven. Greenland, for dogs. Amundsen's first base station -Kill probably b In the vicinity of .North Somer set. In Leopold Harbor, from, which he hope to send news of hl work In 1004. by means of whale hunters. Then he proposes to maks absolute magnetic observations and also oper ate his self-registering Instruments for a time. From thlfl base station he likewise proposes to make sledge trips on which magnetic ob servations wilt be made. In the Summer of 1905 he .may locate hl base station on King William Island and again set up his self-registering Instruments. The following Summer, 1006, he will attempt to locate his base at Herschel Island and open communication with Fort McPheraon, of the Hudson's Bay Company. His return trip will be made by way ot Bebrlng Straits, and he proposes to stop at Sitka and make hit final observations there at the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey observatory, for ttat determination of Instrumental constants. Mr. Amundsen thus contemplates making st complete and systematic xnagneUc survey ol the region about the magnetic pole. from, which: not only an accurate location of the magnetU pole may result, but other most important re sults will follow. The determination of the north magnetic pole by Captain James Clark Boss In June, 1831, rested on a, single deter mination. Owing to local disturbances', which may be expected In that region, there im na telling how close his determination was tat the actual magnetic pole. His position was on Boothia Felix, in north latitude 70:05:1? and west longitude 00:45:43. It Is generally believed that the magnetic pole is subject to a fluctuaUon in Its poet tlon. and It Is bopd Amundsen's work wilt throw some light upon the rate and direction ot motion.
