ARCTIC QUESTS.

Our kilograms this morning, rs tor
several days past, are full of the de-
tails of the disastrous termination oftbe
voyage ofthe Arctic exploring steamer
"Jeannettc," fitted out jointly by the
United States government and the
New Y York Herald. 1t is gratifying to
know that officers and crew are safe,
and were received with the utmost
hospitality by the ,Russisn officials III
Siberia. where the ship-wrecked party
reached shore. The Russian emperor
himself telcgraphed personal orders
That money, food, clothing, everything
needed by the Americans should be
literally supplied, The departure
of the "Jeannette," under COM
mand cf Lieutenant de Long, is
well remembered. She sailed from San
Francisco two years ago last October,
purposing TO reach the pole by way OF
Behring's Straits. Supplied with
every requisite for such voyage,
great results were contidentially an
ticipated from this expedition. 1t Is
known that Lieutenant de Long has
penetrated the Arctic region further
than other explorers who have gone
by the route he chose, but the results |
of his voyage must be awaited until |
he is heard from in detail. 1t is suf-
fcient now TO know that himself
and party are safe. Mr.. Leigh Smith,
who Is alluded to in another cable
gram this morning, is also an eminent
Arctic ex xplorer. He sailed from Pc
terhead, England, last June, de
signing to make second voyage
10 Franz Josef Land, and ii possible
prosecute further explorations. Re-
Gently grave apprehensions have been
for his safety, but the
dispatches this morning measurably
lllay anxiety. As for Lieutenant de
long and the scientists who accom-
panied him, we shall s0ou nave them
It home agaiu, and the whole story of
heir discoveries and suflerings will
'ecome familiar TO all intelligent
'eopie. The termination OF this ex-
edition will not put an end to simi-
lr attempts. II there is any way to

The Reason Why.

Many persons were at u loss to know
yesterday morning why it was that the
Missouri Pacific engine did not cross
the new bridge as was promised. The
failure is explained by the fact that the
gang who were working on track-laying
on the east side of the river left for work
in another portion of the state, and the
International improvement company's
force, which was to have arrived
at a. N. and finish up what
work was left, failed to put in
an appearance. A F.force was
busy, however, putting in switches and
side tracks on the east side and no doubt
so-day OF tomorrow things will be IN
tuch shape on the bridge as will permit
the tram to cross. Two of the company's
engines were in East Waco yesterday
and some of the officers of the road
came down on a special car TO note the
progress of work.

The Missouri immigration associa-
ton has done big business during
the year just ending. About 100000
families have been induced to settle
in the State through the advertising
and solicitation accomplished by the
association. The immigrants are
largely from Germany aud England.
And yet some people say it is 10 use
to spend money or put forth efforts to
induce immigration. These 100000
families add millions of dollars to the
taxable and industrial wealth of Mis-
souri,. Even go populous and rich

the recent death of Mrs. Hobbs, wife OF
one of the Guiteau jurors, may eventu-
ate in a new trial for Guiteau. While

idea is that the defence will, if neces
sary, make use of it in an efortto get
q new trial, provided the present trial
ends in CONVICTION. The court is de-
