Expedition in search of Rare
Animals Mav Push Into
Chinese Section
AMRITSAR, India The Roose
velt expedition, in qnest of rare
animals ot the moantains and
jungles of j Asia, had -not decided
when it passed through Kashmir
oa its way; to the Pamirs, by Just
what route it would return or
how long ! its trip would last.
There was! some prospect, it "was
eaid. that 'the tour might be ex
tended to January and that it was
possible the expedition might be
continued ir'.u China and not re
turn, to India.
The expedition, including Col
one! Theodore Roosevelt; Kermit
Roosevelt. I George Cherrie and
Mr. Cutting, a cinema operator,
made the first' part of .its trip Into
India without incident. The mem
bers traveled - over the - well-
nown route from Srinagar to Leh
and Ladakh. There fs abundant
game in that section of. the coun
try, but the expedition was inter
ested in 'getting the ovis poll, on
the lofty heights of the Pamirs
and the long-haired tiger in the
Thianshan! mountains of Chinese
Turkestan. ,

is not so rare as some may think,
but as; it habitates the high part
of the Pamir range, the shooting
of it is made-difficult. This ahl

In a corner of his dressing room

A new business has been estab

Cal., where he operated, a similar
' enterprise.

into a spiral form, five to six feet
around the curve. The long-haired
tiger is found in the Chinese
Turkestan regions, often grows
to a length of 12 feet.
The ovis poll, or Pamir sheep,
is Rawalpindi by train in the
blaring heat of May and reached
Punjab : when the thermometer
registered 115 degrees in the
shade. From Rawaplindi the par
ty went by automobile 202 miles
up and down the mountainside.
The travelers while In the Kash
mir valley were guests of Sir and
Lady John B. Wood but they re
mained only sufficiently long for
their transport arrangements to
be-made. Their haste In getting
away was due to the fact that
this year there is a cholera epi
demic of more than ordinary pro
portions. Deaths have been oc
curring at the rate of 1.500 to
1,700 a week since April.
In the preparation of their
equipment Colonel Roosevelt and
his associates were ably assisted
while Kashmir by Major A. J.
Ilinde, assistant resident of Kash
mir and British joint commission
of Ladakh. In the' transportation
of. their equipment and supplies
coolies and yaks ; were used dur
ing the first stages of the Jour
ney throughout the Leh regional
Coolies are hired for .24 cents a
day and ponies for 30 cents a day
as far as Leh.
During the first 100 miles tp
Leh the expedition met Rev. and
Mrs. Heber of the Moravian mis
sion; Mr. and Mrs. Owen Jonen of
Chicago, and Major George Va
B, Gillan, consul general at Kash
gar, who represents the America
a .well as British interests. j
In order to go Into Chinese
Turkestan the Roosevelt expedi
tion was obliged to obtain per
mits from the Peking government
which enabled them to enter ter
ritory which" is truly a sports
men's paradise and very little
traveled by white people. '
Only 12 passes a year are given
to travelers ' to visit Leh and
Ladakh. six for the first half and
six for the Utter half, thb being
necessary because of transit diffi
culties and also because of food
problems, much of the food hav
ing to be taken from Srinagar."
I In addition to their Interest in
the hunting of rare animals mem
bers of the expedition always
were confronted with food prob
lems and some of them, especially
Kermit Roosevelt, took every op
portunity to' help solve these, lie
always had ready his fl9hlng rods
and used them tp good advantage
for the entire party In the Dras
and Tarkand rivers.
The progress and success of the
Roosevelt expedition bt being
watehed with considerable inter
est by English sportsmen now in
India, although the new; that fil
ters through is very meager. It
is much the same as it was on the
last Everest expedition when the
news Indian received of J.he moun
tain climbers was dated London.
Most of the dispatches that have
come through up to this time
merely said: "All s well with the
Roosevelts," or words to that ef
fect. '
