T YET DISCOVERED NKV YORK, Sept. 18. -Satisfied by Viljalmiir Stefansion's announce ment that he is alhe and well on Hanks hind in the Arctic, explorers and geogiaphcrs liiectcd attention to day to tho new land he icports he has discovered in the far hortlr. In'Hlofifnvs'ohVdwn report tho newly discoveied land is located near 78 degrees north latitude and 117 IcgiccK west longitude. He actually saw about 100 miles of coast line run niilgjn nn easterly direction and ap imrently penetrating to n'disttinct'of 20 miles inland where from a hill tpo explorer saw mountains at a distance of ,r0 miles. Cyrus C. Adams, president of the Association of American Geograph ers, declared in n statement today that HtoTansMon's new laud lies about 100 miles to the north of Prince Patrick island nml that the most southerly part of the land which the explorer visited fs considerably to the east of the most castwaid exten sion of Prince Patrick is.lnud.c Tlio lands nearest to it. Mr. Adams said, nro the Polynia islands. Mr. Adams said the most northern part of the new laud as far as Stefan- sson sow it uppenred to be farthei: north, than any other land in the great Parry archipelago, to the north of the American continent. Mr. Adams expressed the opinion that tlje land discovered by Stefansson rises from tho continental shelf on the shallow waters that surround the Parry archipelago and that its dis covery shows that this part of the Arctic ocean is comparatively shallow.
