especially pleasant for Moore who on
the day after Andree started, after a
careful examination of his chart Of
the atmospheric conditions and
pressure in the arctic region for this
month, predicted that Andree, if he
reached the pole, the air currents
would carry him out on almost the
lCrgitude indicated and land him
eventually near Point Barrow on the
north coast of Alaska.
With regard to Andrees means of
locating the pole, Prof. Bigelow. the
magnetic expert Of the weather bu-
rCau, says that he would unquestion-
ably use { navigator's sextant. The
sun is always above the horizon this
time Of the year and there would be
no difficulty in getting observations.
Commodore Melville does not at
t2ch much Importance to the results
o. such expeditions as Andree's, even
if it succeeded in passing the pole.
His expedition. however, would solve
the question of the existence of an
open sea, which has been the subject
OF much controversy between Arctic
explorers.
Assuming that the pigeon message
is genuine. there is grave reason TO
fear for the safety of the bold aero
raut If the balloon should have
crossed the coast range and landed
in the interior there would be little
chance of the explorers reaching civ
iliZatiOn again.

TO TEST THE VITALITY.
Object of a Spirited Campaign of
National Democrats.

New York, June 23.-The national
democrats are organizing for a spirited
campaign to test the vitality Of the
party. This was the chief subject Of
discussion at the conference of the ma
tional executive committee just held.
Mr. Halderman presented a long
communication from A L. Carroll,
chairman of the campaign committee
of Kentucky, in response to which the
committee resolved to support the
coming campaign in that state to the
utmost ability of the national organi-
zation Mr.. Linn addressed the COM
mittee upon the situation in Ohio, say
ing that it had been decided at a con-
ference on July to nominate full
state ticket and make an aggressive cam
paign in that state. A communication
was received from l.. w. Martin of the
national democratic committee of the
state of Iowa, announcing the purpose
of action in this state similar to that
promised in Ohio. The executive COM
mittee decided that it was important
that vigorous campaigns should be car
ried on in the states mentioned and
declared it's intention to secure the
services of all speakers of national
reputation who could be got and send
them to those fields of effort.

which amounts annually to 1,240, OOO.-

WHAT SCIENTISTS THINK.
THEY DOUBT THAT ANDREE
CROSSED NORTH POLE.
Explorer Greedy Says 1t Is Hardly
Probable Stockholm Paper Says
Pigeon Wasn't Andree's.

Washington, July 23.-In reply to a
telegraphic request Gen. A. w. Greedy,
the arctic explorer, sent the Associated
Press from Linden, Va, the following
signed statement regarding the Andree
expedition LIT is possible that Andree
may have reached the north pole or
it's vicinity. He started with a south
would blow 600 miles straight to the
pole, is, however, very small, as it
would be an extraordinary meteoro-
logical phenomenon such as has never
accompanied any storm. Should he
reach the pole, he could hardly expect
across the pole for 1000 miles as a
north wind His chances of attaining
the north American coast are infinite
ly small, as observations at Lady
FRANKLIN Bay, GrinneH Land and
Point Barrow show that the summer
winds are almost constantly from the
south, while strong north winds are
almost unknown. While believe that
Andree will never return, yet exper-
itnce teaches US that miraculous things
occur daily
Stockholm, July 23.-The Aftonbladet
which has close relations with Andree
says that Andree could not have des-
patched the pigeon recently caught in
the neighborhood of Soevede and near
TrOmsOe island, because it was ar
ranged that his pigeon should be
marked with the words "Andree ex-

although he believes sufficient time
has elapsed for the receipt Of such a |
message, is inclined to look upon the |
report as a canard. If the bird had |
been freed by Andree he thinks the |

A BOAT BLOWN UP.
Four Killed and a Dozen Seriously In
jured at Bridgeport.

Bridgeport, Conn, July pat $50
p. m. Friday nigh a terrible explosion
occurred on thG steamer Nutmeg
States while lying al the dock at the
foot of South street and as a result of
which four men are dead, three others
are thought fatally injured and num-
Der more are in a serious condition.
The steamer was damaged about

unknown man. The injured are:
Michael Reardon, not expected to live;
Patrick Glennan, thought to be fatally
burned; Michael Mcguire; Edward
Lynch; John Hartwell; John Connolly.
The men were all connected with the
boat. At first it was alleged that light
ming struck the boat, but later it was
ascertained that a deck hand went in
to the hold to light his pipe and it is
believed that the lighted match in the
closed forecastle caused some naptha

The signing of the bill was an interest

the ceremony was at an end.
