NEARER 70 THE NORTH POLE
Dr Nansen Advanced Further
Than Previous Explorers.
AZ AND PARTY SAFE AND WELL

mr.. Sansen Has Been Gone Over Three
Years Now, and His Expedition Is a
Great Success Will Soon Return.
Malmo, Sweden, Aug. 1.-THE
newspaper Dagensnyheler has received
communications from DR.. Nansen and
Lieutenant Shottansen, from the island
of Vardo. These communications state
that they abandoned the Fran in the
autumn of 1895 and resorted to ice.
The steamer Windward, carrying
supplies to the Jackson -Harmsworth
expedition, picked them up near Franz
Josef land. They expected that the
Fran would eventually drift to the
east coast of Greenland. DR.. Nansen
failed 20 reach the pole, but he touched
point four degrees nearer than any
other explorer has done.
The steamer Windward took letters
for Nansen when it started to the relief
of the Jackson. Harmsworth expedition,
as Mr.. Jackson expected to find Nan
sen, and was convinced that his idea
Of drifting across the pole in the ice
was impracticable. He was also con-
vinced that Nansen would return in
the direction of Franz Josef land.

Free Silver Platform.

I'VE believe that the widespread
prostration of our industries. the de.
cline in agriculture, the embarrassment
of our commerce and the ever-increas-
ing distress of all our producers, the
conditions and existence of which is
admitted by all, are directly traceable
to contraction of the currency result
ing from the demonstration of silver,
and we demand the immediate restora.
tion of silver by law requiring its
free, unlimited and independent coin.
age at the present legal ration of 8 to
1 at our mints. We call the attention
of the public to the fact that the people
of the United States produce and con.
sumo of all the important products of
industry more than one.half as much
as all the balance of the earth com.
bined; that the tonnage of our rail.
roads exceeds by $4,000, 900 tons an
nually the tonnage of all the foreign
railroads added to the entire water
traffic of the world, and that as con-
sequence of such enormous industrial
energy our people annually transact
fully one.third of the entire volume Of
the worlds business, ana we therefore
denounce as cowardly, pusillanimous
and un-American the declaration of the
national Republican platform that this
country cannot regulate its own finan-
cial system without foreign aid or in
reference, and regard the suggestion
of an international agreement as in.
sincere and contemplate, and we de-
mand the repeal of any and all laws
authorizing the destruction of the legal
tender quality of money by private
contract.
1--WE demand the foreclosure of the
mortgage held by the government on
the Union Pacific railroad, and should
the government. through such fore.
closure come into the ownership and
possession of the same, we favor its
operation by the government.

THE WEATHER RECORD.
Seven to Ten Hundred Have Died Of
Heat in New York.

Seven to Ten Hundred Have Died of
Heat in New York.
New York, Aug. 14.-This was the
eighth day of the hot weather. The
number of deaths in Greater New York
during the past week, as result of
the torrid wave, is estimated at from
700 to 1000. In many cases the heat
has been given the credit for causing
deaths that in reality are due to other
complications. On the other hand,
m any persons have doubtless perished
from unknown causes when an autopsy
would have shown "suustroke" as the
cause of death. Since Monday over
100 bodies have been sent to the potter's
field from the morgue, and forty more
will be hurried away tomorrow morn
ing. Estimates of today range from
forty to one hundred for New York,
the total number of dead officially re.
ported to 1O:30 tonight amounting to
sixty. seven. The total number of pros
trations reported in New York city to-
day was $50. The total deaths Off
cially reported in Brooklyn today was
twenty-five. The total deaths reported
from Jersey City and surrounding
towns during the day was about fifty.

Six Men Compelled to Stand Hope
lessly By.
Denver, Aug. ia special to the
Republican from Pocatello says: Word
is received from Montpelier, Idaho,
that about 3 o'clock this afternoon,
three masked men rode into town on
horseback, stopping in front of the
Bank OF Montpelier. They dismounted
and compelled six men who were
standing in front of the bank to 20 in
side. Two of the desperadoes then
covered the men with revolvers, while
the third went behind the counter and
emptied all the cash in sight into three
sacks. The robbers then mounted their
horses and rode out of town.
Sheriff Davis organized a posse of
men, who are in pursuit of the robbers,
thirty minutes behind. 1t is thought
they are heading for Jackson Hole, and
if they are, their capture will be uncer-
tain, as the Hole is known to be filled
with desperate gang, who will resist
their capture. The bank officials re.
fuse to disclose the amount secured,
but it is believed to be fully $4,000.

"Wednesday to walk to st. Louis,
where she is to meet B. A. Stencil, of
Denver. The long overland journey

old. Stencil advertised in a matri-
monial paper for wife, and Miss Rem
sor was the successful applicant for his
affections. The novel agreement that
they should meet in st. Louis was
made in lieu of Miss Rensor's inability
to go to Denver. She expects to be
assisted on her journey by persons en-

were converted into raging torrents,
sweeping away cotton, corn and other
crops, causing heavy losses to planters.
