The Jeannette investigation.

APPOINTMENT OF THE COMMISSION OF INQCIRY-THE
RELICS AND RECORDS OF THE JEANETTE.
In accordance with the act OF Congress Secre-
tary Chandler to-day appointed the following
board OF naval officers to investigate the crcuuD
stances OF the loss OF the Jeanette: Commodore
VIM. G. Temple, president; Capt. Joseph N. MIL
ler and Commander Frederick V. McNeir; Master
Samuel G. Lemly, judge advocate. The board
will hold its first meeting on Thursday, october
5th at the Navy department. The survivors o:
Danenhower, Engineer Melville and Seamen Nia-.
derman and NorOs, will appear as witnesses b.
fore the board, and will be thoroughly examined
concerning all the particulars OF the expedition,
from the sailing OF the Jeanette until their re-
turn here. The report OF Lieut.. Danenhower,
which has been submitted to the Secretary.
and the report OF Engineer Melville, which is in
preparation, will be considered by the board.
THE RELICS AND RECORDS.
Secretary Chandler gave an interview OF some
length this morning to Engineer Melville, Lieut..
Dahenhower, and the seaman Nlnderman. All of
the relics and records OF the Jeanette expedition
which have been in the custody OF Engineer Mel
vile were formally turned over to Secretary
Chandler. They are Of considerable bulk COM
pletely filling what Is known as musket box and

TEXT BOOKS OF LITTLE USE.
''Text books were OF little value to U.S." said En-
gneer Melville in the course of a conversation
concerning the cruise OF the ill-fated Jeanette.
"We had two Of what are regarded as standard
authorities on dog sledging, and they failed in
almost to agree with our actual
experiment. The revenue cutter Corwin," he said,
"had been remarkably successful in getting as far
north as she did. but Capt Hooper was favored
with an unusually open season, whereas the JEAN
nette had to contend with one Of the hardest
winters on record, even In that region"
