MacKeniie Can Live Until Sprint,
' But Expedition Would Be Useless.
Seattle, Sow 19,-That ih twelve
whaling vessel Imprisoned in the ice
somewhere in the , Arctic ocean are
doomed to destruction and the crews
t face terrible hardship is' the belief
of Capt Francis Tuttle, former master
of the revenue, cutter Bear and one of
the greatest living authorities on Are
tic lands and waters. Captain Tuttle
does not favor rending a relief expedi
tion. In bis opinion it would be im
possible to reach the fleet s 5
Vben in San Francisco, CapUin Tut
tle talked with Capt Bodftsh, of the
whaler William Bayliss, who brought
the first . direct news of , the perilous
portion of the fleet In speaking of the
matter. CapUin Tuttle said: "From
what I learned from Captain Bod fish
do not think there is a possibility
of the fleet ever leaving 4 he Arctic.
When the Baylies left, the other ves
sels they were about sixty miles off
Banks land. Banks land is about 500
milet Eeast of the Mackenzie river. The
Bayliss bad no sooner left the fleet than
the ice started' closing in and they were
caught. ; The Bayliss succeeded in keep
ing ahead of the moving pack, and with
great difficulty and many narrow es
capes succeeded in getting out
When the ice begins to mill in the
spring the vessels will be crushed like
eggs. The only thing for the crews to
do is to -make for land, taking as much
food as possible, and then strike out
for the Mackenzie river.
"When they finally reach shore their
most serious troubles will begin. There
is not a single native in or around that
country. Neither is there any bunting
save a few, and a very few, yaks, a
species of oxen. Seal are as scarce ii
hens' teeth, and all they can depend on
for food is what they take with them
from the ships and a few fish they may
be able to cath." .
"It will be a 500-mile trip to Iler-
schel island after leaving their vessels,
and this trip will be attended with the
grcatet hardships. The two women who
are with the whalers,, and who are per
sonal acquaintances of mine, will un
doubtedly suffer terribly. I doubt
they survive. .
The only thing to do is to wait till
spring and then send the revenue cut
ter Bear North to pick up the surviv
ors. II the men succeed in getting away
from their ships they will undoubtedly
make) for HeJf-4iel b-lutil and Uienq
hey will be found.
"I learned from Captain Bodfish that
there will be enough food to last the
men all winter by dividing it up. One
of the greatest danTs is scurvy. It
is bound to break out and deaths are
sure to result"
Caotain Tuttle was in command of
a
fie Bear when lie was ynt to the re
l-f of the whalers in 1807. He baa just
been atcined to command the revenue
cutter Perry.

Portland Journal of Saturday, it would

fare far better if he comes minus a
growl. Here is what he saysi
"Captain JacC Recti, owner of the
temer Fox, says that the Columbia
river bar pilots would K've s better
service if they did not put in so much
of their time soliciting trad for .a
private launch they own and inducing
hip captains to patronize certain As

all the pilots of engaging in this bu-i
ness, but declares that some of them do,
Iiefore I rame to Forttand, says
Captain Reed, "I was running the Fox
between Astoria and the ships which
were anchored in the harbor carrying
the captains . ashore ami back to the
vessels and charging them so much for
the service. The pilots bad a controll
ing . interest in a gasoline launch they
called the Pilot which they ran in op
position to me. It was given out that
the craft was operated by James Keat
ing. but as a matter or fact the pilots
were back of the venture. At last they
began cutting the rates to suck a low
figure that I was forced out of business
and came to Portland.
'But I am going back to Astoria with
the Fox in a couple of weeks and will
show the pilots a thing or two. After
left they raised the rates for carry
ing ship captains back and forth."
"The captain says that be has known
the pilots time and time again to re
main on the inside of the bar during fine
weather when a ship was waiting for
them on the outide."
