Third Attempt to Reach Pole.


Walter Wellman, who twice has
undertaken the effort to go to the
north pole by airship, announces
that he is now in the midst of prep
arations for the third attempt, which
he hopes to make the coming Aug
ust. He is now in cable communica-
ton with the agents in Paris, where
his airship is, concerning the posi-
bility of making preparations in time
for the summers undertaking.
Mr.. Wellman is in no wise dis
couraged, but believes with a fair
chance under favorable circum-
stances he can reach the pole-and
return. He has not the least ambi-
ton to go there and have his re-
mains brought back by the next
discoverer, fifty years hence, frozen
as hard as Siberian mastodon. He
wants to go to the pole and get back,
and expects to do so. The feats of
the Zeppelin airship have given him
great encouragement. The Zeppelin
ship is about 40 per cent larger than
the Wellman ship, America" which
in turn is about 40 per cent larger
than the next biggest ever built.

Athens. Oct. 21.-Government by ulti-

day Some thirty naval officers, sup
ported by the Military League. have
been for some time demanding the elm
ination of number of the highest off,
GERS in the navy, on the ground of in
competence. as a preliminary to the re-
organization of the navy. The Minister
of Marine has constantly declined to ac-
cede TO this demand. and the league last
evening presented a twenty-four hour
ultimatum, requesting the enactment of
an ordinance suspending all promotion
for five years, the abolition Of the post Of
rear admiral, heretofore held by Prince
George, together with two vice-admiral-
ships and fifteen places of lesser rank
The Premier tried to meet the case by
promising to submit bill altering the
age limit for superannuation from
sixty-five to f1fty-eight years. The Mill
tary League declared that this was in
adequate, and tonight thirty naval Off
GERS, in imitation of the tactics of the
officers of the league at the recent mill
tary revolutionary movement, quilted
the capital and repaired to Salamis,
about ten miles from Athens and not far
from the arsenal
Although their number is small. they
are backed by the Military League. and
are thus all-powerful. 1t is believed
that the Cabinet will be compelled to
grant their demands intense excite

Havana. oct. 27-The dispute between
Justo Garcia VeIez, Secretary of State,
and Matthias Duque, Secretary of SAN
itation, whose designations from the
Cabinet were accepted by President
Gomez late last night. eliminated this
morning in a duel with pistols. The
men exchanged four shots, but neither
was injured.
The action of the President in sud
denly accepting the designations of the
secretaries is believed TO have resulted
from the decision OF the court of honor
to which the matter was referred, that
a duel was necessary for the vindica-
ton of the honor Of both, in conse-
quence of insults exchanged in the dis
cussion relative to matters connected
with Secretary Duque's department.
IT is rumored that Senor Velez will be
reinstated as Secretary of State or ap-
