The two steamers met at Etah, Au-
gust 18th, and worked in company un-
der the personal direction OF Lieuten-
ant Peary in collecting supplies for
the winter and the equipment for next
springs campaign. The. Windward
was ice-bound in Altman bay, on the
west side of Kane Basin, about fifty
miles north of Cape Sabine, from Au-
gust 1S. 1898. to August 2, 1899, being
in n sort of eddy, undisturbed by wind
or current The season was one OF con-
tnuous calm, with little snow, the
minimum temperature at the ship be
ing 20 degrees below zero. All the
Windward's company, including ten
EsQuimaux, We're exempt from Illness
accident or casualty of any kind.
Lieutenant Peary and the sledge par
ties were in the field almost continu-
ously from October, 1898, to August
of this year, and have effected an ex-
traordinary amount of important work
not only bearing on the future of his
own expedition, but adding much to
the geographical knowledge of the
coast line and the interior of Files
mere Land, the southern portion of
Grinnel Land. His sledging journey
aggregated more than 1000 miles, not
including several trips repeated over
portions Of the track.
AS soon as the young ice could bear
n sledge, Lieutenant Peary made Il
careful reconnaissance of the coast line
southwest of Altman bay, and careful
ly defined the lands and water be-
tween that point and Cape Sabine. The
coast line of Princess Marie Bay and
Buchanan Straits. heretofore unknown,
was accurately defined, and Hayes
sound was demonstrated to be Il myth.
This work completed, Lieutenant
| Peary next made several successful
hunting trips and laid in an ample sup
ply of fresh meat. including musk
oxen, seals and birds, for the winter.
Utilizing the December moon, he sledg-
ed along the ice for twenty-five miles
north, over almost impossible ice, to
Fort Conger, the headquarters of the
Greely expedition. He had the mis-
fortune to have both feet frost-bitten,
which necessitated six weeks delay
and confinement until he could make
the return trip. Lashed to sledge,
he was hauled all the way to Wind
ward, where several toes were ampu-
tated. Complete recovery followed rap
idly and he now walks as well as ever.
Lieutenant Peary found Fort Con-
ger exactly as Greely left 1t. The ta-
BILE was standing from the last meal
and all the other appointments had re-
manned undisturbed for sixteen years.
The buildings We're in fair condition,
though some of them would not be ser
viceable much longer. He took posses

al, in the name of the United States
government and posted notices to that
effect. He brought away, and Is send
ing home, the original Greely records,
the sextant of Lieutenant Beaumont,
II. N, of the Hares- Markham expedi-
tion of 1SI6-S, recovered by Lieuten-
ant Lockwood, and many private let

Greely party, all of which are to be
forwarded to the Peary Arctic Club of

to oppose Albert ID. Shaw, of Water

The features of to-day celebration
were the illumination of the North At

the Union eX-prisonerS of war, both of
which occurred tonight. The lighting
up of the fleet drew large crowds to
both the Pennsylvania and New Jersey
shores of the Delaware river. The
ships We're literally covered with cleo
trio lights and presented Il magnificent
picture. The big searchlights on the
vessels We're also in operation, making
the Illuminating more effective. The

attention from the crowds by reason

EFFECT OF DReYFus VERDICT.
Paris Quiet Just Now but Riots May Come
Rt Any Time.


Paris. Sept. 12.-EXcept for slight
street disturbances tonight Paris has
remained unexpectedly quiet, but this
condition of affairs is not likely to
continue. The long heavy rain yester-
day, combined with the fact that the
leaders of the opposing parties were all
Mt Rennes, preventing any organized
demonstration. Then. too, the general
public were delighted with the verdict
us confirming the chose jugee. Now,
however. they are beginning to see the
want of logic in conceding "extenu-
nting circumstances to convicted
trnitor, concession which excites
doubt as to the strength of the case
against Dreyfus.
Moreover, public opinion is being Sob
cred by reading the comments of the
world at large, and by the prospect,
however remote, that the exhibition
Will be boycotted, which would mean
loss of millions to the country.
There is little doubt that the trial of
the Derouledists next Monday, at
which 1t is asserted sensational eyi-
dence will be developed, and the re-
opening of the Chamber Of Deputies
will be signals for fresh troubles. At
present both parties are taking breath,
but the latent animosity is undimin-
ished.
1t is estimated that the last years
proceedings have cost the Dreyfus
party at least 100000 francs. They do
not intend to let matters rest, and
rumors are revived of the impending
arrest of General Mercier. He declares
that he does not care what happens,
being quite satisfied that he has done
his duty.
1t Is understood also that President
Loubet opposes such an extreme course
as prosecuting Mercler or the other
generals. He is rather inclined to n
conciliatory policy, extending even to
pardon for Dreyfus.
Nj. Demange has been blamed for
conceding so many points IN his speech,
but 1t appears that he did so in the
hope of winning another wayerer
among the judges, who, however.
finally Joined the majority on condition
that the verdict would be accompanied
with the proviso as to extenuating cir
cumstances.
