Secretary Bliss Of the Department
of the Interior has given instruc-
tons to have the reindeer now at
Teller station, Alaska, which have
been broken to work, forwarded to
st. Michaels to be held there for
use in forwarding supplies to the
Klondike country in case of emer-
gency. There are about eight Of
the deer which it is believed by the
Administration can be utilized in
this way, and that they would be
be much more useful than dogs,
because they travel more rapidly,
draw more, and can live on the lit
tie forage the country produces.
The Secretary says that each rein.
deer will carry about 800 pounds,
and will travel 100 miles day.

AndrOe Heard From,

A dispatch from Hammerfest, the
northernmost town of Europe in
Norway, says that the whaling ship
"Palk" has brought there the third
pigeon dispatch from Prof. Andree,
who left the island of Tromsoe in
q balloon July 18th in an attempt
to cross the polar regions. The
message reads:
July 18th, 1878 P. NJ, Lat 1922
north, Long. 1916 east. Good voy-
age eastward. All we'll.
The report comes from st. Peters
burg that Andree's balloon was
seen in q little village in Arctic
Russia Sept. 14th, but only for
about five minutes. Commodore
George W. Melville, United States
army, the Arctic explorer, scouts
the idea and expresses belief that
Andree has met his death. He says !:
ut il possible that Andres balloon
may have been seen and reported from
the Yenisiesk district of Siberia, but
am inclined to doubt if the explorer ever
reached the vicinity or that the news of
his being there could DO communicated
ct this time to the outside world. am
Of the opinion that the balloon never went
very far from spitsbergen, and I have for
some time feared that Andree has already
met his death in the Arctic, though even
1t be came down on the land in the far
north the chances are be never would BE-
heard from.

the number of men now on the
