Halifax, y. S., Nov 15.-Fears are
expressed that Lieutenant Peary, the
Arctic explorer, has been lost at sea.
The ship bearing Lieutenant Peary
was due at Sydney last week. She
was last reported at Battle Harbor,
on the Labrador coast, by the steamer
Virginia Lake. The explorers ship
was badly battered by storms and the
officers Of the Virginia Lake said that
all her beams had been cut for fire
wood With two blades of her pro-
peller gone the ship was able to
make only four knots an hour. More
than a week severe storms have
swept the Newfoundland coast, and,
in her damaged condition, the ship
may have been unable to weather the
gales and seas.
