ONE OP THE PARTY DIES Vtntien, a NorwafUa Cotnridc Suc cumbs to tbe Cold-Miay AdvcB turn Met Wirt on tne Trip. 1IITU Eng.. Aug. tt.-Walter Well- man, the l-adrr of Dit Wollmau polar expedition who rut ur ned to Tromose, Norway, August ITtb. after having successfully completed operation In Fran JiHwilauJ haa arrlvod her. He walka with tha aid of crutclici, hli right leg, which waa artuuly Injumd by a fall Into a anow covered crevaue, wblla Mr. Wellman waa leading hit party, till being uteleaa. Tba tx plurvr waa accompanied by tha Ameri can membera of lb expedition, who are well. In an Interview with a repreaenta tlva of the Aeeoctated Preaa, Mr. Well man aald: Tha object of tha expedition waa two-fold-to complete the exploration of Krani Joaefland, of which tha nurifi and nurtheaat parte were practically unknown, and to reach a blgh latitude, or even the pole Itaelf. Tha Brat ob- e;t waa lUcceaifully accompllihed. The aecund would have been achieved at leaat to a greater extent than by prevloua explunra, but for tha acci dent to myeelf." Mr. Wellnun recounted the atari Ing of the expedition from Tromeoe, June ISM, how it reached Klnwood. the headiuurtera of tha Jackaon ex pedition July Wlh, and holnted there the atari and atrlpea underneath the ITnlon Jack which had been (lying over tbe deeerled aettlement for nearly two yeara. The provlsl'jiii left for Prof. Andre. the nilaalng aeronaut, were found by Mr. Wellman untouched. After leaving letters about hla ex pedition and taking a collupelble house with Mm, Mr. Welluun proceeded due rnel tor Capa TegelboS and arrived there July ttt, 18M. Tba party ;lunded all the tore and the steamer rvKimed to Norway. ' ' ' We t'talllhd our beadijuaHer In the little hou brought from Jackaon's headquarters," continued Mr. Wellman, "over which flew tha Stars and Stripes. . i": "Deelrlng to push further nortka-th tha greatest speed, I dispatched 'Bald win August 5th, with tha Norwegians, sleigea, dogs and boats, myself and others Intending to follow In a few days. "Shortly after Daldwtn'a depyture, I discovered that, owing to a iaudden break up of the Ira I waa unable to proceed, but I aent two Norweglana to Inform Baldwin to build hla outpost, leave tha two men In charge of it and return to my headquartere." Hera Lieutenant Evlln B. llaldwln, of the bureau told of tba doings of his expedition. Ha aald; September list my party reached Cape Hvllar, In latitude II, where we decided to make an outpost. From the very outset, we had a constant fight with tha high aeaa, loa and wind and there waa a continued fog. The lea underneath us parted with terrific trashes leaving ua adrift on small floaa. Here wa built a station and called It Fort McKlnley. Wa stocked it with blubber and meat .and .leaving there two volunteers. Ventsen and lljortvlg, I started to return October M, to Mr. Wellman'e headquarters, arriving there October 30th, in safety, In spite of great hardships, cold, darkness and Ice. "The party spent tha winter comfort ably in Harmsworth's house, whloh waa completely burled In snow.' They killed many bear. ' Mr. Wellman, February 18, 1899. with Norwegians, with sledges and dogs, started north." Mr. Wellman, continuing, said: "February it, 1899, I arlved at Fort McKlnley,, BJortvlg, rifle in hand, stood at the mouth of the snow tunnel, He rung my hand and with tears In hla eyes said: 'Poor Ventsen Is dead.' " 'Of course you have burled him.' I aald. "'No,' BJortvlg said, 'he lies there,' pointing to the house. 'I have kept my promise.' , "The two men had a compact that in case of death, tha survivor should keep tho body until help came. In the little hut the quick and tha dead had slept side by side through two months of Arctlo darkness. "BJortvlg, said he had managed to keep up his spirits by reciting Ibsen's pootry. "The next day we gathered stones and under these we burled our denj comrade. A few fitting words were spoken as we stood around In 70 de grees of frost. "After a delay of ten days the party, Including BJortvlg pressed north In sledges and by March until we reached S2 decrees east of Rudolph island. "The prospects then were reinsuring. We had three months of the best sea son before us and were confident of reaching 87 degrees. Though, of course, we had suffered from cold, we were all In fine form. ' "Then, a seemingly trivial accident turned the advance Into a precipitate reirnat. Whlla struiisllng with the sMici'S In rough Ice, my right leg was bruised and sprained By my falling Into hidden crevloe. For two days I went on, and, unless other circum stances luid not occurred, I should have presM d onward so fan "that I would never have been abl tT return alive. At midnight, March it, we were awukened by tho cruahltig of the fee under our feet, It swayed end deep crevices yawned about ua Moverul dogs and sledges were cruahed. In tha darkness anl storm It waa Impossible to see a path of safety. Expecting to Ixi overwhelmed at any moment by the Ice we scrambled over the field of lee and ssvel most of our equipment except the dog food, reaching a pluca of u My In half an hour. "Our brave Norwegian comrades did not express the slightest fear. Whlla It wm pontile to go on fr a time, my e n w demanded a retreat. For two cr three days I stumbled along until I fell. There was nothing to do then but get on a slcdsje and be dragged to headuusrters by the men and the dons. Kore-d marches by my dvotM comrades ssvel my life.' "The point at which We turned back was Zi miles northwest of Freeden Isl ands, where Dr. Nanoen landed In 195. North of these Island, we photo graphed three Islands and some large land, uns-wn either by Payer or Nan- sen. Wt also found that Payer's so- called Dover glacier does not exist "I still believe It is possible to reach the pol by Frans Jowjfland. But I cannot say If I shall n.ie another ef fort." i After Mr. Wel'.man's return to llurmswnrth house April 9, Baldwin and four Norwegians went out to Wll riekland. charting the unexplored east coast and discovering a new Ice cov ered Island extending to (4 degrees esst. almost as large as Wllrfckland. They named It Graham Belland. after the president of the American aeosjrsphlcal Society. Baldwin returned to the base April JOth. A. Ilarlai, of the United States coast surv-y also took a separate trip before the re-unlted exiedition sailed July 27 on the steamer Capella. A fairly com plete survey of the archipelago has been prepared by Mr. Wellman and his party. They all show traces of hard ships. Their faces are pale and drawn and Wellman Is much thinner than formerly. His right Irg la drawn up u foot from the ground and it Is not known yet whether he will ever again turn It. He will consult a specialist In London Immediately. Otherwise, he Is In good health and spirits. On board the Eldorado, the Nor wegian mall boat which brought the party to Hull. Mr. Wellman was the center of attraction and on arriving at Hull, the passengers gaVe him S cor dial send ofT. The party proceeded Immediately to London. " where they arrived this afternoon.
