The ingenuity of Captain Chase OF the

to make his vessel fast to an iceberg and
allow it to pull him toward his destiua-

sailed from Ivigtut, port on the south
west coast of Greenland. on June 81, for
Philadelphia. She was loaded with cargo
of cryolite. She is one of the seven vessels
that are regularly engaged in carrying that
little known mineral froia the far north.
For three days after leaving Ivigtut she
was surrounded on all sides by monster
