st. Johns. N. F., April 6.-Out of the
storm-swept ice floes OF the North At
lantic. where for two days and two
nights the crew of the sealing ship
Newfoundland struggled against death,
lost and starving in a binding bliz-
zard, the sealer Bellaventure Saturday
brought to this port the bodies of six
fy-nine men who perished in the disas-
ter and thirty-oight survivors OF one of
the most terrific trials of human suf-
fering and of heroism in the annals of
the sea
After being missing for an entire
week no reports have been received
from the sealer Southern Cross. 1t is
now feared she certainly went down
with 173 men on board.
Bodies of eight of the Newfoundland
heroes were not found. bringing the
total death list in that disaster up to
seventy-seven.
The Southern Cross carried n crew
of 173 and the probable loss of that
vessel means death toll of 347 in the
blizzard of Tuesday and Wednesday of
last week
While weeping fathers, wives, broth
ers and sisters crowded the Seamen's
Institute where a temporary mortuary
was prepared. endeavoring to identify
the frozen bodies from the Bellaven-
turc. survivors in the hospitals unfold
ed the story of the hours of terror on
the ice which is unequaled save by
tales OF the Polar regions And Cap
tain Robert F. Scott and his brave
men met death in the Antarctic with
no more fortitude than was shown by
the hardy sealers.
BY noon Sunday all but five of the
sixty-nine bodies of the Newfound-
lands hunters brought in by the Bella
venture has been identified.
The bodies of the victims brought in
by the Beilaventure were frozen as
hard as rocks. Some were locked in
each others arms, other bodies were
in a sitting position. or with arms un-
der their heads. as though the men
sought sleep and rest on the ice. 9th
ers We're bent almost in a circle. Many
men in the party became demented
from their cufferings. One group made
a barricade of the bodies of the dead
to protect them from the storm. Many
of these bodies were found almost
nude. the survivors in their frenzy hav-
ing torn away the clothing of the dead.

WAR coRRESPof DENTS.

The day of the civilian war CORE
'pondent seems to be over, and in
future we shall have to be content
with whatever news the commander
of the forces, working through the
censor's office at home, may think it
wise TO impart. 1t is highly I'M
probable that officers who may have
sufficient leisure to indulge in cor
respondence will be allowed to con-
tribute to the public press, as they
have done in smaller expeditions.
During the second Ashanti cam
paign, for instance, two officers who
distinguished themselves ON that oc-
casion, and have since attained a
wider fame-Sir Edward Ward and
Sir Robert Baden Powell-acted as
joint correspondents Of the Daily
Chronicle. They did 80 well that
this journal was able to announce
the fall of Coomassie two or three
days before any other newspaper.
There was a suggestion at the time
that after the message the telegraph
line to the coast had been mysteri-
ously cut, but that, no doubt, was the
result of professional jealousy. -

There Are Some Bigger Themes, svss
~ Professor Bateson has Re-
Gently propounded.

As diversion from war talk, Prof.
William Bateson, the celebrated bot
anist, addressing the British associs-
ton at Melbourne, proposes this the
orem: 1--WE must begin seriously 10
consider whether the course OF evolu-
ton can at all reasonably be repre-
sented as an unpacking of an origi-
nal complex which contained within
itself the whole range of diversity
which living things represent"
Perhaps il this issue had been
clearly before the collective mind Of
Europe such minor matters as pam
Slavism and pan-Germanism might
have paled into insignifcance.
Really, on the intellectual plane it
is much more important. The war
on Darwinism is being strenuously
waged. Professor Bateson fights
hard against the possibility of
change in organic heredity being
controlled from without. He asks
whether it is not just as easy to be-
lieve that 'the primordial- form or
forms of protoplasm could have con-
tanned completely enough to produce
the diverse types Of life" as that
"those powers could have been con-
veyed by extrinsic additions"
The trite saying, "It's a queer
world" surely comes into ones
head upon discovering that while
millions of men, including English
men, are doing their best to kill each
other in Europe, great group of the
best minds extant sit down calmly
and gravely at the antipodes to dis
cuss the secrets of life.
