Kentucky:
CmLLICoTHR, ONO, February IS
Mr.. Gerard Fowke has just returned to
his home in this city after accomplish
ing successfully one OF the most dinlcult
Journeys ever undertaken by an Ameri-
can scientist. lie made the journey
absolutely alone, saw for a native inter
prefer and guide part Of the way, pene-
trailing many hundreds Of miles into the
interior Of Asia, and adding much 70 the
scientific knowledge OF that region.
The object OF his expedition, which
WAS undertaken at the instance OF the
American Museum Of Natural History,
OF New York City, was a noble one.
For several years past the museum has
been sending expeditions along the
Pacific slope, up through British Column
bia and on toward the Bering Straits
for the purpose, primarily, OF determin-
ing the truth or falsity Of the theory
that America was originally peopled
from Asia; that the Mound Builders
and perhaps the Indians crossed from
the eastern to the western hemisphere
by way OF Boring Strait, and made their
way southwark through this country
and anally into Mexico.
Ii was Just about a year ago that Mr..
Fowke left this city for Japan. He
went first to New York City, where he
secured the necessary scientific equip
ment, then to Seattle. Yokohama and
Yladiyostok. AT Vladivostok he took
the trans-Siberian railway to Kharba-
rovsk, on the Amoor river, The rail-
way, by the way, Is still 1900 miles from
completion and is progressing very |
slowly. At Kharbaroysk, between 600
and 100 miles from the mouth Of the
Am0or, his investigations began.
From q scientific point Of view, II
said Mr.. Fowke to the Enquirer, II
consider the expedition a success in
eyery way. OF the exact scientific
| made l am not yet per-
TO speak. My report will be
published by the museum, and they
'tipulate that no other disclosures shall
