FINDS NO ICE IN ARCTIC
Cutter Reports Remarkable Con.
dition-Possible Heat Cause.
Iron The Tribune Bureau.


Washington, AUG. ia remarkable con-
dition prevailing In the Arctic Ocean IL
disclosed in a wireless message received at
the Treasury Department from the COM
manding officer Of the revenue cutter Bear
at Port Clarence. Alaska. The Bear has
just completed a cruise OF the Arctic
Ocean, going as far north as Point Bar
row. the northernmost point on the West
ern Hemisphere. The invariable expert
ence of revenue cutters on this duty and of
ell other vessels. such az whaers, Is to
encounter great fields OF ice. 1t has always
been possible TO anchor to icebergs and the
difficulty has been to avoid the danger OF
being crushed I'm fields Of ice. This year,
according TO the wireless messages of Cap
tain j. g. Ballinger. the Bear met no Ice
going or coming. This is the first time that
the Arctic cruise has been made with an
open sea and no vestige Of ice.
The event has attracted much attention
on the part of naval photographers and
meteorologists. especially in connection with
the fact that this year there has been
an unprecedented number OF icebergs IN
the Atlantic Ocean as far south as off tho
southeastern coast Of Massachusetts. Tho
fact that there was no Ice In Bering Sea
or In the Arctic route OF the revenue cut
ter Bear coupled with the fact that there
was so much ice in the Atlantic Ocean, ap-
pears To confirm the theory that the UNI
usually hot summer throughout the United
States and in most parts OF Canada Is due
10 the absence Of ice in Alaskan and Arctic
waters.
II is impossible for the photographers 10
explain why there should he this eytraor-
binary trend of the Ice but 1t Is known
that there are many mysterious or erratic
Point Barrow. IT has never been prac-
ticable to maintain Observers so az TO Sc
cure data on which experts could base many
conclusions. but the result of the trip OF
the Bear indicates that there IL a direct
and intimate relation between the preva-
lence or lack Of ice In the Arctic and tho
climate OF the United States

DIX IN UNIFORM.

From The Boston Transcript.
Governor Dix has made a number OF
mistakes since taking office, but vanity and
bad taste have not been regarded as among
his besettng weaknesses. In breaking
away from tradition, however. to the ex-
tent Of reviewing the New York militia In
a nondescrpt military uniform he aroused
some curiosity as to the way In which he
interprets this somewhat perfunctory duty.
Presidents and governors, though COM
manders-in-chief, have hitherto regarded
full day dress as entirely covering the
military hsbIliments. Of apparently his own
design Governor Dix seems to have ex-
