The Star Route Case.
WASHINGTON, March 65h.-The Govern.
| ment has practically closed the prosecution
| in the star route case There is great inter.
est to know what the line of defense will be.
| The announcement was made some time ago
thai Dorsey and Brady would ba put upon
| the stand, il Dorsey recovered his eye-sight
sufficiently &c warrant this. Tne defense as
yet have given no public indication Of their
| purpose. Merriam says : ''If Dorsey and
| Brady are put upon the stand, TIE Govern
mens will have a good deal Of rebutting tes-
timony. One thing you can be sure about,
and that is, that lhey won't call Buell. TO the
stand. There WIS . good deal of cursing
among them when he was called at the last
trial"
An Open Polar Sea Impossible.
New York, March 6sh.-Dr. Thomas
! Antisdel, who lectured on the Pacific Ocean
last evening says the Times, proved to the
satisfaction of geographers present that there
were no warm currents in the Pacific Ike the
| Gulf Stream Of the Atlantic. The only reg.
ularly defined wagm current is one extending
| from the EQUATOR n0rthward along the Asiatie
shore. where il loses itself in the cold cur
| rents from the north. This current exists
! only il warm weather, AID is due mainly TO
| the monscons, A second reason is the fOrms-
! ticn OF the ses bottom. At Behring's Straits
| it is like an oid-fashiozed "peaked" roof OF
| house, with depth-of foFty.fye fathoms
/ of water covs,iDg i5 on the south side
40 ON the north, and only q fathoms on the
| ridge OF land extending between Asia and
America st the narrowed point between the
countries. This ridge, he claims, effectually
prevents the flowing Of warm currents TO TIE
north, Of sufficient volume to have any effect
on Arctic waters, and so makes an open Polar
| Ses impossible. Chief Justice Daily indorsed
! the theory of the lecturer. and expressed him
| self delighted st this confirmation of his
often-expressed theory in opposition TO those
Of Msury, Kane. Hayes and other Arctic ex-
plorers, with whom ne had had frequent con-
| troyersies on the subject.
