Dispatches received here from different
parts of the continent say that the Same
newa from the north is sent throughout
Europe aud IN also generally CREDITED at
European capitals. although even DR..
Nnnscn's wife and relatives did not believe
the announcement which came through
kouchnaref, the agent of DR.. Nanaen
near the mouth OF tho Lena river, resi-
iients Of which locality frequently visit
New Siberia.
