PLAN SIBERIAN SEA ROUTES
Russian Authorities Seek to Establish
Communication From its
Pacific Ports.

Contrary to previous reports. 1t now
appears that the plans of the English
captain, Webster, to establish regular
steamship communication between Eu-
ropean ports and northwestern Siberia,
by way of the Arctic ocean and Kara
sea have been disapproved by the Rus
sian government, obviously for the rea-
son that this bold undertaking, which
appeared to be entirely feasible, would
have diverted considerable traffic from
the Trans-Siberian railway. On the
other hand. the Russian authorities are
furthering in every way the establish
ment of communication by sea between
Pacific ports and northwestern Siberia
via Bering strait, says writer In the
Scientific American. A surveying party.
under Captain Grunfield, has proceed
ed from 'Yakutsk to Nishni Kolymsk.
at the mouth Of the Koyma river, to
make thorough investigation Of that
port, and the geologist, ]. P. Tolmat-
schew, will study the conditions of
navigation between the mouths of the
Kolyma and the Lena. including an
examination Of the Lena delta, with a
view to establishing sea route to the
latter region. The icebreakers
Taimyr and Waigatsch were to leave
Vladivostok in May for a surveying
expedition along the coast Of Kam-
tchatka, after which they will proceed
via Bering strait to. the arctic coast
of Siberia for a cruise at least as far
west as the Lena. II ice conditions

Beware the Death Flower.

Scientists setting out to solve the
mystery of the mammoth statues OF
Easter island have been cautioned-
more or less humorously-to steer
clear of FL Banoer. another island OF
the Pacific. One of the early English
explorers, Hugh Arkwright, who sailed
the Pacific in 1881. warns travellers
against visiting El Bancer-the home
of the death flower. This flower. he
says, is so large that man can stand
upright inside one of its blossoms
But II he does 80 he will surely fall
