The government estimate of
the cotton crop of the present
year. showing the decrease in
acreage to be only ia per cent,
clearly evinces the fact that the
farmers have failed to profit by
the advice given them by the
knowing ones, and have planted
almost as much cottCn as in for
mer years. Weather conditions
have, however, been unfavorable.
and on this account it is more
than probable that a para
lively small crop will be har-
vested. We have an all wise God
to thank for meeting an emer-
gency which the farmers failed
to meet, for the salvation of the
South lies in a short crop.

grown so rapidly during the

here on account of an inability to
procure a proper place of domi-

Building and Loan Association.
however, this difficulty will be
removed, and there will be
plenty of houses for all who de-

Nansen's theory, distinguishes the cir cular direction of the current, and shows the course which must be taken in fu- ture by explorers aiming at reaching the north pole.
 The president of the Philadelphia So- ciety remarked that had Nansen had the advantage of the information now in hand, and commenced his operations with the Tram from Boring Sea, there is every likelihood that the pole would have been reached He also surmised that the next attempt would undoubted ly be made fsom that direction
 The discovery of the telltale casks disposes at once and for all of any hopes which may have been entertained of the recovery of the remains of the Franklin exploring party, which vanished on the drifting ice and left no clue The relics of the party have undoubtedly been scattered over tine ocean, disappearing in the warm southern seas when the ice which bore them melted away.

THROUGH THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE
Navigator Within Ninety Miles of the True Philadelphia Society Believes it Will be Reached Before Long-.The VarcIe
 Party May Make Arctic Trial Trip

New Bedford Mass, Oct. 1.-The whaling schooner Era arrived here Monday from Hudson's Bay, after two seasons stay, with 7,500 pounds of whalebone. She reports that the Nor wegian Arctic exploration expedition has been successful in making the northwest passage, Captain Conner of the Era passing his statement on a letter he had from Captain Amundsen of the sloop Gjoa, who was at that time, April p, in King Williams Land.
 Captain Conner says that there Is no doubt of the successful navigation of the northwest passage this time, and that when the party shall return to civiliza- tion it will be found the passage was made with little more than incidental hardship, and required but determi- nation and courage, such as piloted Magellan on his famous voyage into the unknown South Seas

YUKON POLAR INSTITUTE
May Send an Expedition to Heres chel Island as Test Trip and
 to Establish a Base.
From the Dawson News.)


 Should Dr. Varice and party, now outside in behalf of the Yukon Polar Institute, return to Dawson with funds for carrying out the programme of tests on the trail this winter, it is likely that an expedition will be sent from Dawson to IIereschel Island and on to the relief of the American whaling ships now reported in the ice near Hereschel Island
 An expedition of this kind on the part of the Polar Institute would have the double advantage of a practical test of the methods of travel and apparatus proposed to be used in the trip to the pole, and at the same time would be doing service to the imprisoned whalers.
 Should the whalers be found in desti- tute circumstances, or any of the ves- sels wrecked and men in need, the ex- petition would be appreciated the world over, and the institute might attract attention in quarters where much yalua- ble assistance would be secured for the polar expedition.
 Major Wood, commander of the North west Mounted Police, stated that if the Polar Institute cares to send an expcdi- tion out about the time the police expe- dtiou leaves here for Fort MacPherson and IIereschel Island, that he will be- pleased to have the Polar people co- operate with the police expedition as far as IIerc-chel Island.

THE REPORT CONFIRMED
Man Who Made the Passage Came Overland from Hereschel Island
 and is Now on the Yukon.

Dawson, Dec. 9.-The northwest pas sage from the Atlantic to the Pacific, sought for years by explorers of all na- tions, has at last been found.
 Capt. Roald Amundsen, who has made the passage, left Christana June l7, 1903, under the patronage of King Oscar and several geographical societies.
 His purpose was to locate the magnetic pole and seek q water passage around the northern part of the American con- tinent.
 On Dec. ,, Amundsen, in company with Captain Moggs of the whaler Bo- nanza, arrived at Eagle after long, weary mush overland from Hereschcl Island
 The two men lived on the game they were able to kill while en route, of which they found plenty.
 Amundsen's feat in making the water trip from the Atlantic to the Pacific places him in the list of the worlds greatest Arctic explorers.
 This route has been searched for since the days of Columbus, and is, in fact, the very thing of which he was in search when he discovered America. Millions of dollars and many lives have been lost tn the effort to discover this passage.
 Amundsen also locatrl the magnetic pole near the place where Ross had dis- covered it many years aga. He camprl there for two years making observations. which, be- says wili be of great value tp science. tle also declares that the true ls'le is uot over ninety miles from where he vas tocate,l
 lis crew uf seven meu i- naW at tteFssehsl Island Amun,lsgu is very proud ai the crew susl says they are the best usen that e,'uhI I.ssibly be h.pl

Amundsen, says his vessel was caught in an ice pack and he was forced to aban don her. He also reports that his vessel was the only whaler lost in the Arctic this year.
 Anundsen expects to return to his crew by land and finish his journey on his ship, coming out by way of Boring Sea. He is the hero of the hour over the entire world, and all the geograph- ical societies are wing with each other to dc him honor He was on an expedi- tion to the south polar regions several years ago and is well known to the sci entists.

ARCTIC CASKS TURN UP
Sent Adrift Several Years Ago in the Polar Sea, They Indicate
 the Arctic Currents.

Philadelphia, Pa, Nov. 2.-At the meeting today of the Geographical So- ciety of Philadelphia the announcement was made that two of the Bryant Mel vile casks, sent adrift several years ago in the Polar Sea, have now turned up.
 It was suggested several years ago by Rear Admiral Melville that valuable data concerning the speed and direction of the Arctic currents might be obtained by setting adrift some specially con structed casks in the Arctic ocean. Ac- cordingly some fifty casks have been thrown overheard by United States rev enue cutters and whaling ships
 As one of the results of the experi- ment, the geographers regard the direc- tion and speed of the Arctic currents as perfectly established and of such perma- hence and uniformity as to presage the discovery of the pole for surety in the near future.
 The casks were set ahoat at a number of widely separated points, and it will only require the picking up of few more before the society will be able to accurately map the polar regions
 Each cask of the fifty was numbered and contained q message in four lan- guages, requesting the finder to notify the Philadelphia Society.
 One of the recovered ca. ks was thrown overheard by the United States revenue cutter Bear, August 2i, 1901, at a point S5 points northwest uf Wrangel Island. IL was recovered August l7, 1902, near the mouth of the Kolyuching river, on the coast of siberia.
 In one year, less four days, it had travelled 3SO miles to the southeast. probably influenced by locaI currents.
 The other recovered cask was placed on an ire flee northwest Point Barrow Alaska, in latitude 5l .A3 north and Iuugi- tu'ly lGl10 west, ty the steam whaler Alexander, on september l3. lssr. and was recovered one mile east uf Cape i'au'la NuPr, on the northern coast of ieehnd. June z. lsD5.
 The position of this -rcond c,i-k proves thc exi-teuev oi direct current from Barring strait aruun,i The eirlamp"ltF basin su the Atlantic asvan.
