recommends that the American citizens
on the Adriatic be sent TO Camp Low for

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 24.-It is learned
that ohm verhoeff, the botanist of the
Peary expedition, who never returned
from one OF his botanizing expeditions,
was last seen alive by Langdon Gibson
on August 1S, while the latter was en-
camped at the head of Mccormack Bay.
Verhoef told Gibson he was to take a
trip to Keokerh and might not be back
for two or three days. As he did not re-
turn Gibson went to the appointed place,
but not finding him, returned to the ex-
pedition and reported the facts where
upon Peary and a number of Esquimaux
made a search for seven days and nights,
but nothing but the missing mans foot
prints and pile Of stones were found,
whereupon the search was abandoned as
Verhoeff had taken only fl We days pro
visions and was thinly clad
Verhoeff's actions from the time the
party reached Greenland are described as
peculiar and as pointing TO an intention
TO live with the Esquimaux. He wore
the scantiest clothes with the thermom-
eter registering 40 degrees below zero
and would protest he was not cold. II is
believed by some that he may have taken
a notion to stay with the Esquimaux in
hopes of making journey to point
further north than any yet discovered
and so win fame.

is an impro cement on what he received

"Mr. Smiths withdrawal will undoubt-
edly result in the dissolution Of the AS
