denies tho reports of discussions and SCAN
dsls regarding the shortage of supplies
and seaman Evans's insanity. Nevertheless
there IS uneasiness regarding the full dis
closures of the glorious aud tragic expedl-
ton, which IS reflected in the scant response

cd up to the present is under ten thou-
sand pounds, the Gaekwar of Baroda be-
ing near the top of the list. A partial ex-
PLANTATION of the poorness of the response
IS tie laundering method used by the An
