Fate of WeIIman Party.
LONDON, July 25.-Mr. FieIden, owner
of the yacht Saide, which succored Prof.
Oyen, the geologist of the Wellman arctic
expedition, left at Danes Island, writes re-
ferring to the report of the loss of the
Wellman party and their steamer, that
he has learned from Spitzber-
gen that the Rahnevald- Jarl, the
vessel which was used to convey the ex-
plorers to the edge of the ice pack, was
an old Whaler which had been fitted up
as a steamer and that she was in no way
fitted to encounter the ice.
Dir. Fielden adds that he is led to be-
lieye that in the whole of Wellman's COM
pany there was no one possessed of prac-
teal experience in polar explorations.
Mr.. Siewers, who gave the Information
yesterday about Wellman, showed the
Associated Press representative a bundle
of letters received on Monday last from
arctic sealers who had returned to Nor
way from the extreme northern waters.
The writer's said that they were con-
vinced that not only were all of the
members of the Wellman expedition lost,
but that Captain Nansen's ship was also
crushed in the ice.
Mr.. Siewers believes that the Peary
party VIII return in september after hav-
ing sailed open Polar sea. Peary's
and Jackson's expeditions, Mr.. Siewers
declared were the only ones of all of
those now out that were scientifically
planned.
