from Acting Secretary Newberry, in re-
Spouse to q protest by the association,
stating that no work will be transferred
from the Washington navy yard A
letter from Postmaster Barnes was read
setting forth that the combination mail
box for a long. time on Nichols avenue,
has been removed to Portland street ana
Nichols avenue. where, it was stated. it
is expected to be of more service to the
public.
Letters were also read from the Com
missioners with reference to the request
for the cleaning of the cutters about the
village and it was stated this work Is
now being done. The secretary was di-
rected to communicate with the chief of
the fire department., and request him to
have the exercising Of the horses attach
ed to the Congress Heights fire engine
company along the road in the morning
before 8 o'clock stopped, as it was claim
ed that children going to the schoolhouse
about the same time are exposed to dan
ger from the speeding horses. The mat
ter of securing through street car serv-
ice for the suburb instead of having to
transfer at Anacostia, as Is now the case,
was discussed The members of the rail-

tinued

STRANGE CRAVE IN LABRADOR
COPENHAGEN !. SUSPECTS AN
DREE IS BENEATH.
But DISCOVERIES Story Suggests
Canadian Fisherman Lies
Buried There.

COPENHAGEN, November D:-There is
reason to believe that the body of Prof. s.
A. Andree, arctic explorer who, in 1897,
made an attempt to reach the north pole
in balloon, has been found on the
coast of Labrador.
A letter received here from the captain
of the Danish steamer Inga, dated Lab
rador, September 30, reports that Capt.
Chalker, skipper of the American schoon-
er Pelope of Conception bay, Newfound.
land. discovered in northern Labrador a
cross bearing the name 'Andree. and
that beneath this cross he found a body
and a box of documents.
ST. JOHNS, N. F., November 12.-Capt.
James Chalker master of the fishing
schooner PHO: of Brigus. Conception bay,
said Tuesday that, while his vessel was
cod fishing in Mugford bay, northern
Labrador about August 10, he started
overland across the cape to Black Duck
bay three miles distant, and came upon
a grave surmounted by a cross bearing
the inscription ANDRE Ansty, November
I, 1897"
The lettering was faint. 1t was difficult
to tell whether the date of the month was
November 1 or T. He decided it to be the
latter
Capt Chalker did not disturb the grave
and did not discover any documents. He
does not know who is buried there. lie
is positive the first word was ANDRE,
French for Andrew. and not 'Andree.
1t is thought that a possible explanation
of the grave may lie in the fact that
fishermen from Notre Dame bay of the
name of Ansty fish near Cape Mugford
every summer, and that one of these
may have died and been buried there.
Against this theory is the fact that New
fouudlanders always endeayor TO bring
home their dead from the fishing ground.
The point where the grave was found
is about three-auarters of mile from
the coast. Capt. Chalker says he could
easily locate the grave again. There was
no wreckage nor any other objects near
the cross The nearest settlement to it
is twenty miles away.
Capt. Jackson master of the Moravian
mission steamer Harmony which arrived
Yesterday from northern Labrador, was
unable to throw any light upon the mat
ter. Neither he nor DR.. Hutton, who also
was on board the mission steamer. hay
ing spent three years in charge of the mis-
sion hospital in northern Labrador. was
aware of the existence of any grave
where Chalker says he found one.
