New York,-The United States now
holds the record of "farthest NORTH

was accomplished by Commander Ro,

had confidently hoped to do with his
specially constructed vessel, the Roose-
welt, but he penetrated nearer to the
pole than the Duke Of the Abruzzis
expedition which had held the Arctic
record, SO degrees, 81 minutes. What
Commander Peary did and his exper-
ience during the past year in the
frozen north are rather briefly, but
certainly vividly summarized in a COM
munication received by Herbet L..
Bridgeman, secretary OF the Peary
Arctic club. This communication fol-
