THE report of Capt. De Long, of the
Inflated Jeanette expedition, found be-
side his dead body, was recently made pub.
lie. 1t contained 10000 words. 1t detailed
the incidents of the cruise from the depar-
ture from San Francisco, 1879, to January,
1881. Its principal feature was an elaborate
account of De Longs views In regard TO the
expedition. He considered it good iudg-
ment to head for Wrangel Land. His idea
was to adopt that land as support for the
first winters campaign. He embodied the
story of how land was sighted and how he
expected to reach it. He graphically de-
scribed how on the next day the Jeanette
became beset in the ice, never. again to be
released, and said: "The party was COM
PEELED to make virtue Of necessity, and
stay where we WERE"
