SCOTT LAST 70 DIE.
POSITIONS or BODIES OF DEAD
EXPLORERS SHOW CAPTAIN
WAS ALIVE AT END.
WERE DELAYED BY ILLNESS
Leader Of Expedition Found With
Head Resting on Dlary-Focd Sup
ply Exhausted Long Before Death
Came.

London, Feb. 17.-According to the
Daily Nails Christchurch Dispatch
the position of the bodies when found
proved that Captain Scott was the last
of the three comrades to die in the
antarctic disaster Wilson and Bow
ers were lying dead in their sleeping
bags, but the leader was seated with
his head leaning back against the
tent pole. In that position he bad
breathed his last. and between his
head and the tent pole, with his last
feeble gesture. he had placed his diary
with the records of his journey and
his last message to the public.
Every ounce OF food was exhausted
long before death came TO SCOTS par
ty. Only small quantity of tea was
found with the bodies. Possibly an
expedition will be sent for the bodies
next summer. A memorial cross TO
Scott, Wilson and Bowers was erected
on Observation Hill
Members of the expedition indicate
the possibility of disappointment at
Amundsen forestalling them took the
nerve out of SCOTS party for the re
turn journey
First, the party was delayed by the
illness of Seaman Evans" Command
er Evans states, and Captain Scott
dates the beginning of the failure of
Evans from the time of reaching the
pole. For month after the pole was

anxiety regarding him even greater.
His final collapse came on February
IL. After Evans death the party
pushed on. but once again the condi-
ton of one member of the party
tOatesl caused delay"
Commander Evans again states that
this failure to maintain a higher speed
was due to the falling condition OF
poor Captain Oates, who was a con.
slant tax on the energies OF the party
and was rapidly weakening them. DIR
Atkinson, one OF the search party
found traces of scurvy on the three
dead men.
New light is thrown on the mystery
by Commander Evans, the successor

long cable message from New Zealand
to the Daily Express. He describes
in detail the final dash TO the south
