would suggest the use of a small hand
dynamo in preference top batteries. The
dynamo would be lighter and would
give less trouble on account of the tenn
perature. The batteries are liable to
freeze. The hand dynamo can be op-
Grated by four or five men, as it is
necessary only to generate about one
half horse power. This, of course, is
obtained by mechanical contrivances
multiplying theHoriginal power. No in
telligence is necessary for producing
this power, and Eskimo muscle is as
good as that of the white man if prop
erly applied.
by proper regulation a steady cur
rent can be obtained in this manner.
The apparatus could be taken aboard
sledges and set up at the winter base,
and communication could be kept up
between the party and those in the
ship. If we are able to reduce the
weight, and I am confident we shall be
able to do so, it would be possible for
the party to take two sets of apparatus
in addition to that on board the ship.
One set could be used at the main base
and another be taken by the pioneer
party and put in position at the station
whence they intend to make the final
dash for the pole 49,

party did not care to be burdened with
200 pounds they could carry receiving
apparatus, and this could be put in
ones coat pocket. 1t would enable
them to hear from those at the winter
base, but they could not send word of
their progress.
There is the question of operators.
1t would be better, although not abso-
lutely essential, to have an expert on
the ship. The question of commissary
at this point would not be so vital. But
the operator at the main or winter base
could be one of the members of the
party chosen by Commander Peary for
other purposes, and the same could be
said of the man to work the apparatus
for the pioneer party. Either or both
could be instructed in the use of the
apparatus, and man of intelligence
can master al THAT is essential for this
purpose in few weeks.
1.-The main base would be on land, &C
cording to Commander Peary's plans.
The farthest north base would be on
the ice, and this, of course, is moving
all the time. For this reason it seems
to me it would be of great value for the
pioneers to be able to communicate
with the main base They could take
calculations and thus tell their friends
exactly where they were in case it
should be necessary to send relief
There are no other technical difficult

paratus must be- on board the ship to
send messages as far as Glace Bay, at
Cape Breton.
"As for the apparatus necessary for
communication between the explorers
and the ship, thatscan be simplified.
A year or two ago it would have been
necessary, perhaps, to use batteries
and cumbersome equipment weighing
no less than 1000 pounds Now this
can be reduced to 200 ;pounds 1t would
insure communication for a distance of
at least $50 miles. and under good con-
ditionS it would reach 200 miles. 1 place
the weight at the outside limit 1 be-
ieve by the time the expedition starts
this will be reduced considerably. The
main items in weight would be the in
duction coils, a small hand dynamo
and wire.
What would be used for aerials at
the stations? OF course iron masts
would be out of the question on ac-
count of their weight. Great height is
not absolutely necessary in this case,
and bamboo poles il sections reaching
a height of forty feet would be suffi-
cient A kite or a small balloon could
be used, but 1t would be better to re-
sort to these on board the ship, in case
the masts are not high enough.
There are several reasons why

good men listened. Then, just as the
attack was to occur, Buck covered
Castro with his six-shooter, and the
old judge held off the Indian.
Buck told Castro to throw up his
hands, and Castro declared that he
could not be taken without a gun.

upper hand and finally locked Cas-
tros wrists together.
Just then the old judge made a mis-
take. He turned aside for an instant.

Wall Street begins the week much in
doubt The continued strength of the
recent sessions, followed by an easily
reaeting market with the mixed con-
dition of news and the uncertain out
