PLAN FOR RELIEF OF
 ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
Ship Will Leave London by August 1 for Weddell Sea and Will Follow
 in Path of sthaa Aurora. s.

London, May 19.-Plans for the relief of Lieut.. Sir Ernest Shackleton, who with a number of his men is marooned in the Antarctic, were completed today at a
 meeting of a committee of the Royal Geographical society The plans involve the departure of D relief ship from Lon don by August 1, for weddell sea by way
 of Buenos Aires and the Falkland Islands.
 The relief ship probably will follow the plan of the Aurora, the auxiliary bark of the Shackleton expedition, which drifted from her moorings, and will be fitted out in Buenos Aires.
 Apprehension of the food supply avail able for the Shackleton party is felt by persons familiar with polar expeditions. They point out that the limited carry ing capacity of Sir Ernest's steamship Endurance made it necessary to displace a considerable portion of the food to make room for coal.
 Dr. w. S. Bruce, who has explored this region, doubts if the expedition ever be- gan land exploration in any but a prelim- mary form.
 It is calculated that the voyage from London to the Falkland Islands will re. qusre 90 days with another month tc Weddell sea, which would thus be reached as the ice was breaking
