Cunninghame was in terrible shape and
neither he nor any Of his poTters or
bearers had tasted food or water for
day. When be was rested and given
food and water. Cunnlnghame told Com
mander Attenborough that the Roose-

short Of both food and water, and that
the entire party was coming on TO the
Attenborough estate, while Cunning
hame had come ahead with extra speed,
TO secure a small amount of water and
provisions to last the party until It ar
rived

and his pOTters started across the de

with the result that they were IN bad

borough estate.
No Questions Asked.
In Africa it is the rule TO give succor
first and talk later and that was Com
mander Attenborough's attitude toward
Cunninghame. He did not ask IL the
Roosevelt party was actually short Of
food, or II, by meager meals, they could
get along uEtil they reached the Atten-
borough estate. Instead, as soon as the
CunnInghSme party was sufficiently

borough supplie1 them with a la-Rc
amount of supplies from his own larder

NEW YORK, n. V, Feb. 22.--An

coal and water. the average being well
below the guaranteed mean amount
The consumption tests of the North
Dakota thus far have been in keeping
with the remarkable speed shown in
her special mile trials. all tests having
developed better performances even
than her builders expected.
Up to the present stage the North
Dakota has far eclipsed the showing
of her sister ship and rival, the Della
ware. Her turbine engines during the
trials thus far completed have devel-
oped greater top speed and have gen
Grated power for a low speed at less
expense to coal and oil supplies than
did the reciprocating engines of the
DelaWare's trials of a month ago
But in exceeding the Delaware's per
formances the North Dakota sacrificed

test was 22.7 pounds per horsepower

tract figures Of 90 pounds per hour.

being derived from the horsepower
