The revenue cutter Corwin has returned
from Alaska with the annual story OF dis
aster TO the Arctic whaling fleet. Twen-
ty.two Of the crew OF the whaler Napoleon,
which sank in the Arctic Ocean, perished
in their boats, and the others were picked
up by the Corwin nearly dead OF hunger
and cold. Lieut. Ray, who spent two
winters at Point Barrow. believes the Gov
ernment should maintain permanspt sta
tion at this place, the most northern point
of Alaska, a. refase Of shipwrecked sail
ors, who, he thinks. could almost invari-
ably reach Point Barrow in their boats or
over the pack Ice Supplies could annu-
ally be renewed at Point Barrow, and
hardly a year passes that some ill,faied
crew does not perish because there Is no
succor within reach. The best whaling
grounds ia this region are now north of
Behring Straits, and the whalers push in
to the Arctic Ocean 10 spite Of the prob
ability that some OF them will be caught
and crushed 10 the polar ice pack.
Lieut.. Cantwel announced as the most
important result OF his explorations
in northern Alaska last year the discovery
Of indications that there is on available
route by which sailors, icebound on the
north coast Of Alaska, may retreat over
land along the Colville river to the settle
ments on the Yukon. He has just return
ed from his second seasons work in the
same region, and perhaps brings further
information on the question. As long a'
there are commercial prizes to win in thu
waters Of Behring Sea and the Arctic
Ocean our whalers will face the peril and
run their chances. IL seems reasonable
that Congress should make modest ex.
tension OF the life saving service IN thu
direction. II has been shown that TN
cost would be comparatively small, ane
that such an enterprise would probabl.
