CHICAGO, Sept. is believed to
be convincing evidence that William Hoop
er Young is the murderer of Mrs. Anna
Pulitzer, whose body was found in the
Morris canal, near Jersey City, last Thurs
day, was discovered here to-day by the
police in a trunk that had been shipped
to Chicago from New York. The Chicago
police were notified by Chief of Police
Titus, of New York. to watch for the
trunk, and it had scarcely reached the city
when Lieutenant Rohan was at the station
waiting for the owner to claim the trunk.
1t was consigned to &C. 8. Filing" and
bore the inscription, Hold until called
for" AS no such name is in the Chicago
directory, the conclusion was reached that
the name was fictitious, and the express
officials gave Lieutenant Rohan permis-
sion to examine the package. When the
trunk was opened there were found a
blood-stained dagger, several articles of
feminine apparel and nearly 100 letters adj
dressed to William Hooper Young. Among
the articles of clothing found was a linen
petticoat, marked with the initials "A.
p" a chemise marked "A. K" and a cor
set cover bearing the name Pulitzer. The
runk was a cheap affair and bore no
marks of previous travel. Its contents
evidently had been thrown in loosely with
out any attempt at packing. After a thor
ough examination the trunk was resealed
and reshipped to New York over the Erie
Railroad.

Stanley Spencer Tells Of Flight

CHRISTIANIA, Sept. 20.-Captain Otto
Sverdrup. who reached Stavanger yester-
day from the arctic region on the steamer
Fran, in an interview gave the following
details Of his expedition:
81 spent the winter of 1S9S-99 in winter
at Ellesmereland, whence scieD-
tific expeditions were started with sledges.
The summer of 1899 was unfavorable and
the Fran was obliged to return and pass
the winter at Ellensmereland. A great
part OF the surrounding region was mapped
out. There was a serious fire on board the
Fran in May, 1900. 1t was started by sparks
from the funnel, and spread to the keyaks
(arctic canoes), which were smeared with
paraffine for their protection. The rig
gings and masts caught fire and the total
destruction of the vessel was threatened,
but we succeeded In mastering the flames.
In August, 1900, We traversed Jones sound
and Cardigan strait and took up winter
quarters at 76:4S north and SO west. The
region was rich in reindeer and polar
wolves, Of which we brought back living
specimens. The following winter was more
than ordinarily cold and stormy, the aver
age temperature being 40 degrees below
zero. Sledge expeditions occupied the
spring and summer of 1901, and the early
part Of 1902. On Aug. 6 the Fran succeeded
In breaking away from the ice and arrived
at Godhaven Aug. Is. We left Cape Fare
well, homeward bound, Aug. g." Captain
Sverdrup added that the members of the
expedition met no Eskimos in the regions
visited, but he said that many of their
dwellings, belonging to former periods,
were seen.

FIRST DIP in THE SEA
CRUISER DIES MONIES LAUNCHED AT
FORE RIVER SHIPYARD.
Unusually Capable Ship of Medium
G~rade-Great Effective Power and
a Large Steaming radius.

QUINCY. Mass, Sept. 2O.-The cruiser
Des Moines was launched from the yards
Of the Fore River Ship and Engine Com
pany a little after noon to-day. Hundreds
of people saw the ship plunge into the
water. and for some time after their cheers
echoed along the river banks. Miss Elsie
Macomber, of Des Moines, with Governor
Cummins, Of Iowa, and Mayor Brenton, of
Des Moines. standing by her side, smashed
the traditional bottle of champagne against
the steel PROV of the cruiser, and Miss
Clara N. Carleton, of Haverhill, Mass, cut
the ropes which held the last keel block
and started the ship down the ways.
The Des Moines Is the largest vessel ever
launched in the waters of Massachusetts
bay. and is the first of the government
ships under construction by the Fore River
Company.
Although the weather was cloudy and at
times threatening, the day was practically
a holiday, while the attendance of a large
company of distinguished guests. including
a delegation from Iowa. many government
and foreign naval attaches, made the coca
sion a notable one.
The launching party and other guests left
Boston on a special train. Soon after noon
the party mounted the launching stage
right under the massive bow of the shin.
Owing to the illness of Governor Crane Of
Massachusetts. he was represented bv
Lieutenant Governor John l.. Bates and
several members of the Governors staff.
The Des Moines represents what her de-
signer, Admiral Hichborn. regarded as the
most useful of the medium-sized TYNE of
warship. 1t was never intended that she
should be a racer. nor yet that she should
be a battleship IN resisting Qualities. bur
the Des Moines was planned to combine 2
fair rate of speed, a moderate but still for
midable armament, good sea-going qualities
and a coal endurance rather above the ay-
erage. All these qualities have been got
together in a vessel of 300 tons dispIace-
ment, SS feet 8 inches long. A feet beam
and 10 feet 8 inches draft. with a speed of
sixteen and one-half knots.
The DeS MoineS has a protective deck
two inches thick and her sides are lined
with c~ellulose to exclude water in case thev
are pierced by a shell. She has no other
armor. She carries five ten-inch ranid-fra
guns, eight six-pounders. two one-poundere
and four Colts automatic guns. The in
Dictated horse power will aggregate 4 900
the engines being triple expansion. Sly
water tube boilers will supply the neces-
sary steam. The coal supply. zoo tons win
give this ship a radius of action ar ten knots
of 1000 knots without coaling: thns sbs
could steam from San Francisco to Naniie
without stopping for coal. Her crew will
consist of 263 men.

Evelyn b. Baldwin in London.

LONDON, Sept. a.-Evelyn B. Baldwin,
of the Baldwin-Zeiglar expeditions, arrived
in London to-day on his way home. He
had little to add to what has already been
cabled regarding his experiences, but he
gave extended details Of the technical
interest to arctic navigation on the work
accomplished, and the stations established.
Mr.. Baldwin gave an interesting account
of his journey to Cape Norway, where he
came upon DIR. Nansen's hut. the place
where Nansen n Johannsen spent their
historic winter. The hut was partly
gnawed by foxes and bears. DR.. Nansen's
record was intact. 1t was found in a brass
cylinder and was dated May 10. 1896. and
written in pencil on half a sheet of note
paper. Mr.. Baldwin has the Nansen record
and left his own record in the place.
While in the arctic regions Mr.. Baldwin
released three hundred balloons which
were driven northward and may later fur
nish data regarding air and sea currents.
Each balloon has attached to ii an auto
matte buoy addressed to the nearest
American consul"
The expeditions start for home was at
tended by exciting incidents. 1t was neces-
sary to charge the heavy ice-drifts, blast
through the ice. The America was caught
in a violent ice field. her screw and rudder
were twisted and her propeller frame was
broken. The expedition had another ex-
citing experience in a pack further south.
Two members of the expedition, unarmed
and on a pony sledge, were set upon by
huge white bears. The pony bolted and the
men were defenseless. With great presence
of mind they clambered on top of an ice
berg and escaped on the other side to the
ship.
Mr.. Baldwin described fights between
dog teams and herds of walruses and in
conclusion said: The old idea of an open
polar sea is baseless. We know that land
extends as far as 81 degrees on the Franz
Josef Land side and from there | believe
the pole can be reached. l agree with
Peary that the most practical way of
reaching the pole is by shedding from that
point"
