OTTAWA, Oct. 5.-Captain Bernier
of the Canadian steamer Arctic, which
arrived today from cruise in Arctic
regions made public a letter written
to him by DIR. Frederick A. Cook, May
23, and delivered to Captain Bernier
on September /. at Upernavik. A por-
ton of the letter says: II have to
write you the first letter after having
been sealed behind ice barriers for

kindly left in charge of Mr.. Whitney
which aided me greatly in getting to

had been taken by Peary under the
gufse of a relief station. Murphy,
the man in charge of the station. how
ever, was instructed not to engage
In any relief efforts, nor to allow Es-

fortunately We were able to work out
our problem without relief efforts ex-
cept as you offered We have pushed
into the boreal center and picked up
the polar prize, but the effort was
dangerous beyond conception. The
splendid assistance which you have
given and the liberality of the Cana
dian government in sending the ship

and injustice of one of my own coun-
trymen.'

ROSLyN MINE
FIRE STOPPED
HICKMAN TELLS OF DISASTER
Debris Can be Removed ard Immense
Shaft Worked Again, Says its
Builder.

p. Y. Hickman, who directed the
Fuel Co. mine while its superinten-
dent some years ago, returned to
North Yakima Tuesday after visiting
the scene of the terrific explosion and
fire on Sunday, bringing back the re-
port that the fire. had been stopped
and that the mine. ownefs would start
to clear away the debris Immediately.
THE Roslyn mine will be- worked
again, it is not as badly damaged as
might be expected after such a terrific
explosion of fire damp" said the
North Yakima man on Tuesday. 1.-The
newspaper reports relative to the
disaster are about accurate, ten were
killed and one badly injured. No
others were in the mine.
"The shaft is choked up with debris
from the burning shaft house and
from the explosion, and it will take
two months to clear things away. I
believe that this work can be done in
that time, and the mine will be ship
ping out coal again.
ut was lucky the disaster occurred
or sunday, when few miners were at
work. One can hardly imagine how
terrific a disaster there would have
been had it been a working day."
DR.. George Sloan accompanied Mr..
Hickman to Roslyn and also returned
on Tuesday.
No Rescue Yet Possible.
ROSLYN, Oct. 5.-As yet rescue
parties have been unable to effect an
entrance into mine No. 4. where 10
men were killed by an explosion of
fire damp Sunday afternoon. This
morning a party attempted to enter
by way of mine No. 1, but a rumbling
far back in the mine led the officers
to order the withdrawal of the party,
an explosion being feared because it
was believed that the noise was
caused by -cave-in resulting from the
weakening of supports caused by
Sundays explosion. Six bodies are
still entombed in the mine.
