No Word From Grselsy-Return of the Yantic Without TIdings-The Proteus Crushed in the Ice.
 ST. JOHNS, N. F., Sept. 13.-The Greeley expedition relief steamship YRntic has just anchored here Her tidings are lamentable. No word has been received from Greeley or any of his party. The steamer Proteus was crashed in foe ice at the entrance to Smiths Sound on July 23. Captain Pike, his crew, and the scientific party are passengers by the Yantic. The Proteus was recently fitted out and stored with two years' provisions for the signal service party under Lieutenant Greeley and great anxiety is expressed for the safety of the men unless other provisions can be sent to them, Rs they have not more than enough provisions to last through the season The Loss of the PrOteua-An Official Ae-
 count of the Disaster.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-Secretary Chaud- Ter late this evening received the following dispatch from the commander of the Yantic, giving particulars of the disaster to the Pro teus and the rescue of her crew by the Yan- tic:
 ST. JOHNS, N. F., Sept. 13.
 To W. E. Chandler-The United States steamer Yantic has arrived here, bring ing Captain Pike and the crew of the Proteus, Lieutenant Gar lington and the Greeley relief party. All well. The Proteus was crushed in the ice six miles north Of Cape Sabine on July 23d. The crew and the relief party, after deposit ing the records at Littleton Island and Pan dora harbor, retreated southward in six boats to Upper Navik, suffering much hardship in Melville Bay. The Yantic reached Littleton Island August Sd without much difficulty. She found the records and immediately pro- ceeded southward, searching the coast and island thoroughly down to Summer Island. The ice pack then closed in and we could not go around or through and were obliged to re- treat under the lee of the Northumberland Island. On the 9th of August southward gale having loosened the pack we were able to get through and continued the search The coast about Cape York is filled with ice packed close so that we could not get within twenty miles of land. On the 10th, having ice in all diree- tions but southeast, proceeded to Upper Navik and sent 15O days rstions to Lessinsak and whale boat to Cape Shakeeton. On the 22d we sailed for g coal mine, thence to Godhaven. On the 31st Lieutenant Colewell arrived in launch, having been thirty nine days in an open boat. He had separated from us under orders at Cape York. We sailed the same day for Upper Navik and found the relief party had arrived there. On September 2d we proceeded homeward and had rough passage.

The Territory ofNs.v nrs1ieo


 WASHINGTON, Sept. Ex-Governor Sheldon of New Mexico has sent to the Secretary of the Interior g very full report upon the af- fairs, progress and development of that ter : ritory. His report contains 8 number of suggestions upon subjects relating to the ter ritory which he desires to have laid before Congress. The territory he says has an ad- mirable climate, great natural resources, an orderly condition and 8 population. especial ly the natives, kindly and hospitabiy dis posed It lacks thoroughly systematized government. While the country is old, still it is new and the innovations of 8 different civilization upon the old system have intro ddced confusion and complications. The greatest want is an effective and uniform common school system. The census of 1880 shows that the greatest precentage of illitera- cy in the United States is in New Mexico and Governor Skeldon thinks. if the territorial legislature delay action on the question much longer it will become the duty of Congress to legislate upon this subject. He crit ieises unfavorably the operation of the homestead laws in New Mexico and thinks the present methods for settling land disputes intrinsi- cally dilatory and should be improved.

 SIOUX FALLS, Sept. 13.-At to-day's ses- sion of the constitutional convention the committee on State, county and municipal indebtedness reported a clause forbidding any county or town ever to vote aid to any corporation.

Anxiety for thu Members of the Expedi-

Anxiety for the Members of the ExpedI- tiOn.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-There is some
 diversity of opinion here tonight among
 navy officers and others concerning the ulti
 mate fate of the Greeley exploring expedition
 now that the Proteus with the Greeley relief party has been crushed in the ice. The lost
 Proteus was the vessel that took the Greeley
 party up into the Arctic regions and nothing
 has been heard from Greeley since the Pro-
 teus, after landing them at Lady Franklin
 Bay two years ago, returned.
 The party were provisioned for only one year. This leaves the Greeley party, in view of all the circumstances, in a very precarious situation. Commodore Walker said this evening: 'No vessel in the navy, no vessel in the world, could reach Greeley before next summer. He and his
 party are in 8 very bad fix" The common comment here tonight is that the failure of the Proteus and Yantic to reach the Greeley or to bear any word from them will causes forebodings as to their fate Even if alive and in health it cannot be doubted that they need very much the sup plies carried by these vessels. It is hoped Greeley and his party have been long enough in the Arctic region to become inured to it's hardships and so may have acquired g knowledge how to use the products of the barren land to advantage.
