During the past summer large feet,
laden with railroad iron, machinery,
and heavy freight, from England and
Russia, made the voyage and carried
them 1900 miles up the Yenissei river
into the very heart of the great grain
district This fleet was commanded
by Capt Virgins One powerful
steamer of 2, 500 tons burden assembled

loaded, and returned to England,

demonstrating to merchants and
sailors alike that Virgins northeast

the surprise ef the Siberiansa graceful
yacht entered the river carrying n
yachting ensign and pleasure party.
Next summer the Russian govern
ment will ship 1900 tons of steel rails
for railroad in Siberia. This alone is
proof that Capt. Virgins theory
which has stood the test of twenty
years, is no tale of the sea, no yarn
spun by the mariner bold.
Siberia is not the place the romantic
novelist, playwright and traveller has
told us of; it is n rich, magnificent
country. fast developing under Rus
sian influences. True, it has its penal
life, but, like Australia, that feature
has waned into insignificance with the
march of imperial progress. New
marts, new fields of industry will de-
velop, and speedily, too, since Virgins
has found the northeast passage.
