ASSOCIATED PRESS TUG
REPORTS AT POINT RICHIE

Point Richie Newfoundland, Sept.
13.-The tug Douglas Thomas, char
tered by the Associated Press to meet
Commander Peary returning on the
steamer Roosevelt from the north
pole, reported here from Bone Bay
last night after dark. From the wire
less telegraph station here 1t was
learned that Commander Peary and
the Roosevelt were still at Battle
HarbOr, Labrador. The Thomas has
covered a total of 355 miles from sgd
ney, almost due north. The run from
Bonnie Bay to Point Richie, a distance
Of SIS miles, was made Sunday after
noon in a gale Of wind. The tug
skirted the western coast OF New
foundland and those on board could
see the SHOWS CT last winter cleaning
in big white patches on the mountain
tops as mile after mile was laid be-
hind.
The Thomas came to anchor mile
from shore. The correspondents land
ed in a dory and with lantern and
guide, walked three miles through
the shrubbery and swamp to the Mar
conf wireless station, where he was
informed that the Roosevelt was still
at Battle HaTbor. Coming north from
POnne Bay. the Thomas expended
every possible pound of steam against
the head seas. There had been no
direct word of Commander Peary'
whereabouts for several days and
there was the ever-PTesent liability
of passing the Roosevelt at sea, an
occurrence that would have made the
trip useless. As the tug neared the
strait of Belle Isle, the coast of Labra~
dor came into view This contraction
of the waterway made it Impossible
for the Roosevelt TO pass without
being sighted The information
cleaned at Point Richie was reasSur-
ing. il WIS certain that the trip had
not been in vain
At Point Richie the additional in
teIligence was CLEANED that the steam
er Tyrian had been turned over by
the Newfoundland government to the
newspaper men to go out and meet
the Roosevelt.
