COMMANDER PEARY
WILL TRY AGAIN
A Telegram Indicates That He Fled
Southwark Only for Badly Needed
Repairs and Supplies.

Lenox. Mass Nov. 3.-That Com
mander Robert L. Peary encountered
unusual difficulties in his search for
the North Pole, was indicated in a
telegram received today by Mr.. Jes-
sup. president of the Peary Arctic
Club. Buffeted about, in a field of ice,
his ship without coal, his dogs poison
ed by impure food, and a portion of the
interior of the vessel torn apart TO pro-
vide fuel for the boilers, were some of
the trials which the explorer was forced
TO face. The most significant portion
of the telegram, however, was that
containing an intimation that Com
mander Peary would again try to find
the North Pole. The telegram follows:
"Hopedale, Labrador. by way of
Twillingate, New Foundland. - The
steamer Roosevelt is now here. We
are repairing her rudder and stern,
taking ballast and awaiting the arriv-
al of a mail steamer to secure coal.
The return voyage was an incessant
struggle with ice, TO Cape York, on
Sept 18th; then, with storms and head
winds to Labrador coast. On October
23rd, the storm carried away the two
rudders. the stern post and two blades
of the propeller, the fOretop mast and
the spanker boom; we lost one boat,
burned all the coal and some OF the in
terror beams, using wood and blubber
along the coast.

It is reported, says the Boston Alaskan, that the Guggenheims the we'll known copper operators have offered $5,OOO.OOO for Beatson mine on Latouche island Prince William sound, and also that they are to build smelting works at Valdez for tl,e reduction cf the ore from their mines in the vicinity.
 With President Roosevelt, Gov ernor Hoggatt and the maj jority of the influential senators opposing territorial government for Alaska it is not likely that Delegate Gale and the Skagway Alaskan will be able to get the measure through congress. The president and gov ernor will probably be dubbed as "tories" now by the papers which ride the territorial hobby.
