MIKKELS0N ALIVE,
LOST TWO YEARS
Danish Leader Of Rescue Party
Survives Hardships OF
Arctic.

NEW YORK, July ga cabicgram
from Copenhagen announces that Capt
Ejnar Mikkelsen, leader Of the Danish
expedition in 1910 to recover the bodies
of Mylius Erichsen and his two COM
rades, has been saved.
The Danish relief expedition of 1911
returned last summer, and all the west
Greenland ships came back without in
formation of Captain Mikkelsep. Hope
for his safety had, therefore, practical
ly been abandoned.
The Alabama reported upon her re-
turn from Cape Bismarck in 1910 that
Mlkkelsen with one companion had
gone North and Westward. with the
expectation that IL he could not re-
turn that way he would proceed
around the northern end OF Greenland
or cross 1t via the Peary channel, re.
turning to the west coast settlements

GAYNOR IS FORCED
TO SHOW HIS HAND
IN GAMBLING CASE
Mayor Must Decide Tomor-
row Regarding Police
Investigation.

NEW YORK. July 2S.-With twelve
days passed since Herman Rosenthal
was murdered, the police have made no
headway in bringing the crime home to
any particular person. II is generally
conceded that this inability to secure
action Is due to graft relations existing
between officials of the force and the
gaming fraternity.
Mayor Gaynor will decide tomorrow
whether he will sign the call for 6
special meeting of the boarti Of alder
men, or wait for a mandamus to be
served on him compelling him to cali
the board TO vote on q police ihvestiga-
ton. Meanwhile Lieutenant Becker,
late chief Of the strong arm squad, will
go before the grand jury on Tuesday
to explain his side Of the case. 1t was
Becker whom Rosenthal accused of be-
which was raided by the police
When Becker, according to Rosenthal
could not collect enough profits from
him he began to oppress him and II
was then that Rosenthal related to

alleged connection with him and prom,
ised to tell more on Tuesday morning

Commits Suicide in Grounds
of Palace Where Emperor
Is Fighting Death.

TOKYO, July 2S.-No important
change in the Emperor's condition was
noted at the examination made by the
physicians at 6 o'clock this morning.
At that hour the Emperor's tempera-
ture was 1904; pulse, 104; respiration,
80.
Vast throngs continue to gather
around the palace. This is more in the
way Of a sympathetic assembly, as the
reports from the sick room are meager.
Among the notabilities who have ar
rived from a distance are representa-
tive Of the former Emperor of Korea
and Count VI, representing the peers
and gentry.
DR.. Kinnosuke Miura, of the Tokyo
Imperial University, one Of the physi-
clans in attendance on the Emperor
said that the symptoms are less acute
and respiration had improved.
The body of young man was found
in the outer palace park at dawn. A
letter in his pocket stated that he Of
fered his life for the Emperor. An au-
topsy disclosed that he had taken
poison.
After the morning consultation OF
physicians 1t was announced that con-
ditions were little changed. Fatigue had
increased and the pulse and respira-
ton were irregular. The Emperor had
little sleep and was restless.

fact that although only 15 per cent
of the total area of Japan is under
cultivation. the rest of the land Is not
available for pasturage. 1t would ap-
pear at first thought that the extern
sive mountainous area Of the country
would afford splendid pasturage for
sheep, but this does not exist except
in the extreme north, as the noun
tains are covered with a dense growth
of bambo grass. which 1t Is impos-
hible to eradicate, and this grass is
wholly unfit for food. Therefore
there are practically no sheep on the
