EXPLORERS DETAIL FEAT.
Tell of Hardships in Scaling Peak
Kun of Himalayas.
Correspondence Of The Star.

Foreign correspondence OF The Star.
MILAN, November 20, 1913.
The members Of the Italian expedition
to the Himalayas, who scaled the virgin
peak Kun. 23.4O0 feet high, are now near
ing home, with the exception of DR..
Mario Piacenza, head Of the party, who
has undertaken a long caravan journey
across India and Persia.
Letters just received at Turin b. the
families Of the explorers narrate the as
cent OF Kun. This occupied twenty-seven
days. The party traversed six valleys,
and crossed the remarkable Drundrung
glacier. twenty-five miles long. They ex-
plored practically the whole Of the un-
known region bordering the scene Of
the Duke OF the Abruzzi's exploits. Very
bad weather and extraordinarily heavy
snowstorms were experienced while on
the roof of the world
The explorers suffered terribly through
difficulty In breathing. and the famous
Alpine guide Savoys fell seriously i'll.
The party, which numbers several noted
scientists, was hard at work in this high
region for four months, and the largest
and most important collection OF scientific
material yet collected in the Himalayas
is being brought home as result.

TWELVE WEDDING GUESTS DIE.
Many Others Made Violently Ill as
Result Of Feast.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

FofclSn correspondence OF 1ne otaf.
PARIS, November 10, 1913.
An extraordinary story is told by the
Journal OF the fatal termination to
double wedding celebration at Cholet-
After the dinner about forty persons
were taken violently H. and twelve OF
these have since died. 1t appears that
they had all eaten a special dish. in which
the chief ingredients were eggs, cream. cit
ron and macaroons. The victims who have
died are NJ. Eugene Loiseau. farmer
Mile. Landvan, a woman employed AT the
hotel where the festivities were taking
place. Nine. Mallet, the mother OF two OF
the young married people, and two OF her
granddaughters: a farmer from Nalette.
two young women from Montaign, Gus
tave Pofrier. one of the two bridegrooms
(brothers) who had been united TO two
sisters, and the wife Of the hotelkeeper.
Medical experts are of opinion that the
cream had deteriorated. and that there is
no ground for believing that a poison had
been introduced into IT. Some OF the
confection WAS administered to a guinea
pig by analytical experts. which died
forty-eight hours afterward, but an ex-
animation OF the blood did not support
the theory of q poison having been in
troduced into the cream.
