ten days full rations left for crossing Smith
sound to Littleton island Unfortunately,
Smith sound remained open the entire winter,
rendering crossing impracteable Game failed,
despite daily hunting From early in February,
before the sun returned, only five hundred
pounds Of meat was obtained Minute shrimps,
procured In good weather, sea weed, sassafras,
rock hchens sealskin were resorted to for food,
with results as shown by the number of
Survivors. The last regular food was issued
on May IA. There was only 150 pounds Of meat
left by darlington, which compelled me to send,
IN November, four men to obtain 144 pounds of
Engllsh meat at Isabella. During the trip Eli
son troze solid both his hands and feet aud lost
them, all the men surviving, however, through
our terrible winter and spring until July g.
me survivors owe their lives to the indom-
liable energy of Captain Schley and Lieutenant
Emory who, preceded by three and accompa-
med by five whalers, forced their vessels from
north water at Cape York with
the foremost whaler. They gained a yard when
ever possible, and always held it. Smith sound
was crossed and the party rescued during one Of
the most violent gales have ever known. The
boats were handled only at imminent risk of
swamplng. -Four of us were then unable to
walk, and could not have survived exceeding
twenty-four hours Every care and attention
was gwen US. We saved and will bring back
copies OF meteorological, tidal, astronomical
magnetic, pendulum and other observations;
also the pendulum, Yale and standard thermom-
eters, forty eight Photographic negatives, col

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON July 17.-About 10 o'clock this
morning dispatch was received at the Navy
Department from Commander Schley, command
ing the Greedy relief expedition, announcing the
rescue of the remnant of Lieutenant Greely's
party, and the bodies of the dead. Within an
hour the news was transmitted to every quarter
of the city, and before noon the department was
filed with anxious friends and relatives of mem
bers of the expedition, eager to learn all the sad
particulars. Secretary Chandler is away, and
Admiral Nichols is acting Secretary of the Navy.
The scenes in and around his room were inde-
scribable kilograms came flying in from all
directions; brothers, mothers, fathers and sisters
of Greely's party thronged into the room, from
which the red tape barrier had been, for the
time, removed; the voice Of the old Admiral
grew husky as he replied to the questions which
he says it was one of the worst experiences of
his career
The success of the relief party is naturally
the only topic of interest discussed on the streets
here to-day. Nearly all the members of the ex-
pedition are well known, and the success of the
relief party is applauded on all sides.
Still, the dispatch announcing that
the eighteen men who perished all
died since the first of January, and that
starvation was the only cause of death, has furn-
ished food for a great deal of reflection 1t is
stated now that had another relief party started
from St Johns last fall. Immediately after the
loss of the Proteus, there would have been a
good chance for saving those who are now be-
yond relief On the other hand, officers of the
navy assert that it would have been utterly i'm
possible to approach Cape Sabine after the news
of the loss of the Proteus was received before
winter set in.
One point in Lieutenant Schley's dispatch
must stir some of the Democratic members who
persistently opposed the passage of the relief bill
last winter That is the point in which he says
that forty eight hours delay would have been
fatal to all those who are now alive. The only
reason why opposition was made to the bill was
that members professed to fear that the money
would be misapplied. Those newspapers which
assailed Secretary Chandler because he pur.
chased vessels before the bill became law will
probably regret their hasty action after reading
the dispatch to-day.
This sad affair will doubtless lead to a long
and disagreeable investigation. The Proteus
trouble, those dispatched orders and General
Hazen's connection with the Proteus expedition
will undoubtedly be aired before a court of in
quiry, pending which it would be unjust to as
sert whom lies the blame for this terrible loss

Lieutenant Ellison was very badly frost bitten,
and died at Godhaven, on July 6, after under

Thetis and Bear, with the survivors, are now at
St Johns, Newfoundland. The telegram is as
follows:

representation.

DENVER, Col, July 17.-Malcolm Hay Of
Pennsylvania, who was chairman of the commit
tee on resolutions of the Democratic national
convention during the whole deliberations, and
which is now here states that Henry Watterson,
in his Louisville speech, last night, reported by
the Associated Press misrepresented the motion
of Mr.. Hay to strike out the word exclusively
from the platform as being protectionist move.
1t was, at the time the motion was made, ex-
pressly stated that all agreed to the truth of the
constitutional doctrine that federal taxation
should be exclusively for public purposes and that
the motion was made solely to avoid any possible
injury to the party from misunderstanding or
misuse Of the particular word: that it was un-
necessary to a full and complete statement of
the truth in the sentence in which it occurred
and its retention could therefore only be harm
full and unnecessary The only protection
sought was from Watterson's pride in phrases.

A GREAT OFFER
The WEEKLY JOURNAL
for the Campaign at
% CENTS

In order to place the WEEKLY INDIANA
STATE JOURNAL in the home of every Repub-
lican in the State, and thus do good campaign
service for the Republican party, we have de-
cided TO send the paper till after the presiden-
tial election for 25 cents

of the matter appearing in it is especially pre-
pared for the wants of the weekly readers. It
is compendium of the NEWS OF THE WORLD
from all quarters; it has full and accurate mar
ket reports; its editorials are political, social
and general; it has the news of the State
and of the city. It's literary and miscellane-
GUS features are of the best.

mittees cannot do better than to see that

in the hands of those persons in their
counties who are not now readers of
some sound Republican paper. The
tariff question is the one issue which
is likely to be most prominently dis
cussed, and to this the Journal pays especial
attention, advocating the maintenance of the
principle of protection to American industry
in whatever revision of the tariff laws may be
made necessary in the future developments of
business and labor. In this question the
farming community is deeply interested, and
the discussions of the journal will be
largely directed to the agricultural aspects of
the question.
The WEEKLY JOURNAL is the only paper in
Indiana that publishes regularly Ten Pages,
and this will be continued throughout the
campaign, despite the low price Send in
names at once, either singly or in clubs, and
thus get the full term for the money.

Last night another immense audience
filled the opera house to witness Sherid-
ans masterly impersonation of "The
Merchant of Venice" Mr.. Sheridan
fully sustained in this very difficult part
the enviable reputation which he has
gained here. The audience throughout
tho whole play was en- rapport with the
star and he was interrupted by frequent
bursts of applause. His rendition Of
Shyiock, allowing his avarice, always his
ruling passion, to be overcome and over.
shadowed by his desire for revenge,
revenge not alone for insults put upon
himself, but upon his whole tribe, was
grand aud he was followed with the
closest attention. Sheridau's support on
last evening was even better than at
previous performances, that is to say the
minor actors seemed to put more heart
into their lines. Altogether his Shyiock
was very acceptable to his hearers and
they will no doubt go to hear him during
the remainder of the week.
Tonight he will present for tho first
time in this city Bulwers matchlessdr

II tappears that the books in the list
recently furnished to the Public Library
were purchased in San Francisco. Why
this is done is what the people want to
know! The booksellers in this city can
buy books in New York, London or Paris
at as low rates as the dealers from San

as it is to San Francisco. The book.

furnish them in San Francisco, and by
purchasing here all the freight from that

An Instance OF How chickens Pay
Quickly.

Anyone who passes along the Arroyo
Seco road to Pasadena may have noticed
a chicken ranch in the valley of the Ar.
royo Seco, on the south side Of the road
aud about three miles from this city.
There Is nice residence. large house,
used for ten incubators, and lath fence
enclosing about half an acre. which is
divided into several enclosures. The
owner has been there but about ten
months, aud yet hAs made q success Of
the enterprise. He only uses half blood
ed eggs for Matching into chicks, which
he keeps separate until they are large
enough to go through gate to another
enclosure, and next TO the final one,
where the hens are kept, with the usual
number Of roosters. The fowls nre kept
for eggs, or fatteDed for sale, as the case
may be. At any rate. there is a
steady trade in the city, both for
regular customers for both eggs and
fowls, while good many fowls. breeded
up, bring fancy price for breeding. AT
this rate, in about O year more the
chicken ranch will either have to be re-
moved or enlarged. This is great suc-
cess for three quarters of year. but as
chickens always pay in suitable local
ity with care, it may induce more fanci-
ers to go into the business. Eggs are
imported into Los Angeles from the GEN.
trail part of the State. as also are fancy
blooded fowls. This is an anomaly
which should not exist. There
is no place known where there is so
much money in fowls as there is here,
and the local markets should be sup
piled with imports, but with exports
over the local demand.
