The ice broke in the beginning of August. formed on the lst of Oc- :ober, and was sometimes not visible.

The intention was to examine. the narrowest part of the strait around the Eta island and to establish a depot for the projected sleigh journey in the spring of 1905. to the west coast of Victoria Land.

In accordance with It's plan to pre- : sent . full and complete report of the voyage of the 0joa. The Daily Nugget publishss the captains own reports of what bsfell him in the Arctic. This information is unique. It was difficult to 0st the captain to speak of his achievements He s e modest as he is brave. His expedition was. one of psaos. and yet 1t is stirring the whole world In his littls sloop he set out to enrich the worlds store of knowl- edge. His particular mission was to wrest. from the heart of the Arctic the magnetic secrets for which the world has been longing for many a year. Millions of. money have been expended on Arctic travel and re- search. and no single expedition has ever accomplished 90 much as Amund. sen hss lone 50 at 70 small . cost and with such . handful of men. He has lifted the veil that has obsouIed many of the great problems in physics. and has furnished the scientific and geo. graphical worlds with information concerning the magnetic phenomena ot the earth that will be of incalcu- labls value.
 Captain Amundsen has been the ob- server and recorder of these phenom- ena. and other men will now set to work on them and deduct from them the conclusions that will be of vast bene6t to the whole human race. Every man who sails the seas will benefit by them. and incidentally every traveller iD the world
 The iirst report from Amundsen rsaohed Norway Nov. %. 1904. having been found cached at the foot Of the Franklin monument on Bsechay island by the captain of .

 pr. .NaIisen says: ,rCaptain Amund- zen possesses all the qualities neces- ,ary for Q first-class leader of the ex- petition. He has thoroughly studied and made himself familiar with the matter in hand. He is one of those who has made the most important dis covery that the success of a polar ex- petition principally depends upon the preparations made hefore the expedi- ton starts out. Already as a boy the polar regions attracted him. and he has continued to educate himself in the thought thereof. In 1890 he took his bachelors degree. In 1894 he made his first trip to the Arctic ocean in the sealer Magdalena. In 1895 he passed his examinations for mate. In 1896 we find him again in the Arctic ocean. this time in the sealer Jason. In 1897 to 1899 he took part in the Belgian south pole expedition with the

 GJOA. King William Land. May a2. l9O5.-Since my last letter lNOvember. 1sO4) l have nothing of particular in terest to mention. The EskimO I sent south with the mail. In November. 1904. ~found the Arctic. formerly the Gauss. at Cape Fullerton. In Hudson bay. Major Moody. Of the Northwest Mounted Police. who Is In command of this vessel. has written to me that the mail will reach Ottawa about August 10. and will be sent on from there. As the Eskimo. who halls from the vicin- ity of Cape Fullerton. is going south again, I send this letter with him. This winter has not been by far 90 severe as the previous one. The sea ice, that last year at this time meas ured about 3so cm. (lah feet) Is now only about ITO en- In February We had the lowest temperature-minus 4s deg. A great number of Netchilli Es- kimos spent the darkest part of the winter here. The spring commenced liO be noticeable already by the end of March The temperature has already now been above zero several times. Gu health has been excellent the whole time. commenced in February to encircle the magnetic station. and have just finished. Lieutenant Hansen and Sergeant Ristvedt left here On the 2d of April to chart the east coast of Vic- toria Land. They were attsd out for seventy days. with two sasighs. with six dogs for each We have had fresh food all the time-caribou and salmon. The magnetic observation house ha: been in uninterrupted activity. Ar. Wiik has managed this work. and has done excellently. Furthermore. might add that every member has done his duty to the utmost. Absolute mag neitc observations have been taken daily and In all temperatures. The meteorological registration instruments have been working all the time. The geological and ethnological collection has been steadily enlarged The mag netic variation house win b. tAke' down in the beginning of June. after uninterrupted activity of nineteen months.

When Amundsen reached Eagle hc had sent him out on the expedition aware of the success that had attend ed his efforts. This information was sent to the outside world in the shape of letters and cables to Dr. Nansen and others. These letters and cables follow. They are Captain Amundsen's official report in full as far as he has made 1t to the public. Captain Am undsen was good enough to give this matter for publication to The Nugget:

After some search got out into the north water on ths I%lh. on tho 18th and 17th took OH board the depot left by Captains Milne and Adams OH Dalrymple island. Sailed west. at once. Arrived at Beechey bay on the 22d without being hindered by ice. Took here the ob- servations to determine our further voyage. These denoted that the mag netic pole was in a sOutherly direc- tion. On the 24th held sOutherly with the course set for Peel sound. Got our bearings of land in Peel sound on the .eth. Ders. fcc VI the Way from the entrance of Lancaster sound. Could use the compass till we got to Prescott island (Peel sOund). Here 1t refused to act. In dense fog. with calm. with out compass, navigation is somewhat uncertain. However. we advanced. We escaped fighting impenetrable ice. and passed Bellot strait on the 26th. Sneaked down along the west coast of Boothia in open water along the land. Grounded On the Ed of September be- tween IMatly and BOothia. Had to throw the deckload overheard. and sailed off during a storm on the Sd. with loss of the false keel.

as the prominent magnetician Prof. A Schmidt has stated. at present the most important matter at issue in the domain of terrestrial magnetism. To find Q man who has so many Qualifi- cations in the different respects. to solve the question. would be difficult
 "When Amundsen has also though, of trying for the northwest passage. he evidently thinks 1t will be an achievement. Scientifically considered. this part of his plan is not of so much interest as ;he first, but 1t fits so beau lifully into all of it that 1t would be almost Q sin to exclude 1t. especially as this continuation of the voyage will not fail to give important scientific re- suits also."
