Treasures cf the Polar Seas.

In 1899 Count Romanzoff sent M.
Hedenstrom to explore the New Sibe.
rian Islands, fitting him out nj his
own expense. Hedenstrom reached
LaikoG's first island, and was amazed
at the prodigions stores Of fossil ivory
it contained; for although the ivory
hunters had for forty years regularly
carried away each year large quantities
of IVORY from the island, the supply Of
ivory in it appeared to ba not in the
least diminished.
In about half mile Hedenstrom
saw ten iusks Of elephant sticking up
in the sand and gravel, and a large
sandbank on the west coast Of the
island was always Covered with ele-
plants insl,s after 4 gale, leading him
TO hope that there was an endless
amount Of ivory under the sea! He'd
cnstrom and Sannikoif went on to
Keteinoi anu -siberia, and they
found the hills in the former island
absolutely covered with the bones,
tuaks and teeth Of elephants, rhinoce-
roses and buff5loa, which must have
lived there ii counties numbers,
although the f,iand is now an icy
wilderness. without the slightest vege-
tation.
They also found That in New-Sibe-
ria-the most eastern Of the islands
the quantity of mammoth ivory was
still more a4undant and in 1909
sanaikoff bropght away 10, 600 pounds
Of fossil ivory from New-Siberia alone.
