Carlow arrived in the District this
morning after an extensive trip through
the western states and thence down
into Mexico. His favorite method of
travelling is on the bumpers of freight
trains and as stowaway on steamers.

Defends Admiral Wilkes.

IN our expedition we found that Ad-
miral Wilkes had to a large extent
mapped correctly the coast line of the
Antarctic. I found his map showed
Norths Land, Tottens Land, Budds
Land, Knoxs Land and Termination
Land, but he had made mistakes. due
undoubtedly to the deception caused
by the mirage. and had charted in his
log book as land what only appeared to
be land. There is nothing SO deceptive
as the mirage OF the arctic or antarc
tic Admiral Wilkes unfortunately was
tried by court-martial on charges pre-
ferred by some of the members of his
party and this in my judgment was
wholly wrong, for there can be no
doubt that Wilkes was entirely honest
in his observations.
On the Mawson expedition the two
companions of Sir Douglas, Lieut.
MINES and DIR. MertZ, died, the former
being lost in crevasse and the latter
dying from exhaustion. For two days
Sir Douglas, who was 100 miles from
his base, contemplated eating DR..
Mertz, because he had no food, prac-
tically but he determined instead to
bury his late companion. For thirty
one days he lived on the meat of one
dog.
