IS STILL A MYSTERY
Officially Denied That Dr. Nansen
Has Reached the North Pole.
NOTHING HEARD OF THE EXPLORER
Ivory Seekers on the New Siberian Islands
Have Seen No Signs of His Ship
The Rumor EncctuaIly
Disposed Of

London, April 21.-The Daily Graphic
to-day publishes dispatch from Chris
tiania saying that the governor of
Yakutsk reports officially that the in
habitants of Ust- Yansk have not heard
anything about DR.. Nansen, the Arctic
explorer, who was recently reported to
be returning after having dis
covered the North Pole. The governor
adds that the ivory seekers on the New
Siberian islands did not see any ship
between May and November of last
year. This dispatch pretty effectually
disposes of the report that DIR. Nansen
was returning to civilization after
making discovery that has so long
batlled so many explorers The ru-
NOR of DR.. Nansen's return came
from Ust-Yansll, near the coast of
the Arctic ocean, east of the Lena
delta, and the trading post nearest to
the New Siberian islands. An official
was dispatched some weeks ago from
Yallutsk to Ust -Yansk to inquire into
the truth of the of the report which
was circulated by a Siberian trader,
an agent for DIR. Nansen. He informed
the prefect of Kolyask that he had re-
ceived information that DR.. Nansen
had reached the Korth Pole, where he
had found land, and was on his way
back, but no details could be had.
Hence the Russian government sent
man to make inquiries, and the official
report of the governor of Yallutslt, in
which the province of Ust-E EanslI is
located, presumably contains the re-
suit of this government agents inves-
tiga tions.

AWYERS
Senator ThurTton's Address at the
Congress sof Religious Education.
ALL LAWS FOUNDED ON MOSAIC CODE
No National Prosperity Separate From the
Influence of Religion-Immorality
and Crime the Only Enemies of
Good Government.

Washington, April 21.-The first ses-
sion of the first National Congress of
Religious Education was held last
night in New York Avenue Baptist
church Gen. John Eaton, ex-United
States commissioner of education,
president of the American society of
Religious Education, presided. The
theme of the evening was "ReligiouS
Education and National Prosperity
the speakers being Rev. w. II. Milburn,
the blind chaplain of the United States
senate; Rev. j. f. Grammar of Balti-
more and Senator Thurston of Nebras
ka. The latter delivered an eloquent
address frequently punctuated with
applause by the enthusiastic and APP
preciative audience. He said that the
body of American lawyers, almost
without exception, were sincere be-
levers in the truths of Christian re-
ligion. They might not be regular in
attendance upon church, nor fire.
quently plead the cause of Christianity,
but none the less, he said, they hon
estly believed in those principles be-
cause they knew that all law was
founded upon the Mosaic code. lie
believed In the overruling provi-
dence of God in the affairs of ma
tions, and hoped that it would be
taught the children of the United
States. There certainly could be, in
the senator's opinion, no national pros
perity separate from the influence of
the Christian religion in the life CT the
nation. The only enemies of good
government, he said, were immortality
and crime, leading to anarchy. There
was no school for either of these agen-
cies of destruction in the home of the
family protesting the religion of Jesus
Christ. A feature of the programme
was a hymn written for the occasion
by president j. E. Rankin of Howard
university. The sessions of the con-
gress will continue over Thursday.

WORK OF CONGRESS.


important IN tne mouse.
Washington, April 2l.-Now that
Senator PETER has consented to
permit his bond sale investiga-
tion resolution to be laid aside
temporarily, although it is still the
unfinished business and as such is
entitled to be called up every day in
the senate at . o'clock, the senate is to-
day considering appropriation bills.
The Indian appropriation bill is tho
immediate bill under discussion, but Sc
far has not advanced a single step, the
cause of delay being debate on the
amendment for the payment of the
fees of some fifteen attorneys for legal
services, characterized by some sena-
tors as lobbying, rendered to the 'old
settlers or western Cherollees.
House of Representatives.
There is nothing of Importance on
the programme of the house to-day.
The passage of the general deficiency
bill takes the last of the general APP
preparation bills out of the hands of
the house. In the consideration of the
general deficiency bill prolonged de-
bate was occasioned by the paragraph
appropriating Ss5O,OoO to supply a
deficiency in the collection of the Gus
toms revenues. The action of the
secretary of the treasury in increasing
the customs force at New York was
criticised by Mr.. lie )burn, rep, Iowa.
This increase was due, according to
Mr., Dingley, rep, Me-, to the change
from specific to ad valorem duties
made by the WilsonGorman act. A
general comparison of the tariff laws
of 1890 and 1894, both as to the reve-
nue. produced by them and the cost of
collecting the same, and comparison
of the appropriations of the past four
congresses made lively debate, which
lasted nearly three hours.
