knud Rasmussen
Now on Way Back
From Greenland
Explorer Met With Great
Success in the Far
North

Cable advices just received by Pro
fessor Henry Fairfield Osborn, presi-
dent of the American Museum of
Natural History, bring the first word
to America that Knud Rasmussen is
now on his way back from Greenland
after having met with success in his
polar explorations.
The message, which came from M. I.
Nyeboe, chairman of the committee for
the Cape York station, at North Star
Bay, Greenland, also contained news
OF the death of DR.. Thcrild Wulff, the
Swedish botanist, s.ho was member
OF the Rasmussen expedition.
Rasmussen, according to the advices,
reached De Longs Fiord. The Danish
explorer, the message stated, mapped
the great fiords. 1t added that he had
found no traces of former human oc.
cupancy. Conditions were bad gen.
orally, and he encountered no game.
Established Northern Station
Rasmussen is secretary of the Cape
York Committee, an association of
Danish business men and scientists
who established the station at North
Star Bay in 1910.
Rasmussen went to the Smith Sound
region in 1915. He planned to cross
the ice and visit Peary Land. Reach
ing North Star Bay in June of the
same year, he found that it was i'm
possible to take his expedition over
the ice with any reasonable prospect
OF return that year, so he wintered
there.
Early in April, 1917, Rasmussen. ac-
companied by Lauge Koch, a Young
Danish geologist, and DR.. Wulff, who
had joined the party the preceding
September, and attended by large
party of Esquimaus, with sledges and
dog teams, started northward to fulfil
the original objects of the expedition.
At Etah they met Donald B. Mcmillan.
leader of the Crocker Land expedition,
Just, before he began his journey to
findlay Land. Rasmussen's plan was
as follows:
Rasmussen's Plan
He, Koch and Wulff were to 90 on
the ice fields through Smith Sound
Zane Basin and Kennedy Channel to
Fort Conger, then across the Green
land side, and map the coast north
ward as far as it was practicable to
travel. At the same time they were to
search for signs of former occupation
OF the extreme part of Greenland by
Esquimaus.
Then DR.. Wulff and his driver. Hen
dirk Olsen, Greenlander, were to be
left on the south side of Peary Chan
mel, while Rasmussen and Koch, with
their dog teams and Esquimaus. ad-
vanced into Peary Land.
On returning to Peary Land Ras-
mussen was to pick up Wulff and the
whole outfit. casting away every bit
OF useless baggage, and make a dash
southwark over the ice to North Star
Bay, where they could spend the winter
Of 1918. if it were too late to get
out in 1917.
Professor Osborn's cable advises that
the expeditions enterprises were car
ried out successfully as far as the
first great ford from Peary Fiord
(Peary ChanneD.

Germans Active in Mexico

According to Frank McNenny, of this
city, who arrived at an Atlantic port
from Havana, more than 10000 Ger
mans have fed from the United State
into Mexico since the outbreak of the
European war, and are now employed
as. an active army of propagandists to
stir up strife between the United Sta es
and Mexico.
The attempt to break off diplomatic
relations between Cuba and Mexico, he
declared, was due to German activities
in the latter country 1t was the Ger
man hope that in the event of serious
trouble the United States would have
to take the part Of her ally, Cuba, and
French front to the Mexican border.
Passengers on board the vessel de-
clared that the feeling in Cuba against
Mexico had become so strained that the
city authorities had ordered the Mexi-
con Club in Havana to give up its quar-
ters at the old Mirimar Hotel, because
of its proximity to the Havana water
front

After expressing his appreciation for

OF the accomplishments of the War
Department during the past few weeks.
In May, he said, more American troops
were taken to Europe than were there
when he left in February. 1t was not
only the man-power of America that
was now modified. the general said
but other resources. including the emo

WASHINGTON, May sc.-Nearly
s45,o00,0o0 farm loan bonds of the new
issue, bearing per cent, have been
sold during the last nine days in the
intensive campaign conducted by the
Farm Loan Board through a group OF
bond dealers. 1t was announced to-
day that the campaign would be con-

shortly before the fourth Liberty loan
drive is started, and the board hopes
to dispose ofss75,00o,o0O bonds by that
time to provide funds for farm loans
up to January 1. 1919.
The bonds are sold at an interest
of per cent, the interest going to
bond houses as selling commissions

directed by r. j. II. Won Engelken, has
been created by the Farm Loan Board

Japan's trade with that country has
practically ceased; and if japan is
obliged to undertake military opera

arise renewed demand for copper, an
timony, tin, coal, oil, foodstuffs and

to the value of several million yen
stored in warehouses at Vladivostok,
either sold or otherwise. Big orders
for copper have recently been received

In fact, all goods have advanced enor-
mously, and there is loud outcry Tor
the government to exercise more con-
troll over the profiteers. Negotiations
are still going on with regard to OBJ
tanning supplies of steel from America
for the dockyards Of Japan. Mean,
while, the manufacture of iron and
steel is being pushed with all expedl-
ton. The Mitsu Bishf Company Is
just completing a new 320O0,OO0 yen
($16000,000) steel plant in Corea, which
will begin operations in April, turning
out some 10000 tons annually. Japan
can now produce $1,000 tons OF iron
and 778,000 tons of steel each year,
but by the end of this year she ex-
poets to be capable of turning out
1,150,0O0 tons of iron and 1,165,O00 tons
of steel; and if all her plans are car
ried out, by the year 1928 she will be
able to produce annually 100000, tons
Of iron and 2,140,000 tons of steel and
100000 tons Of steel goods.
The report of the Societe Generate
de Paris states that this institution,
with which number of powerful
French industrial concerns interested
particularly in iron and steel are now
associated, has entered into closer
understanding with several important
American institutions which have pre-
viously acted as it's correspondents in
the United States. 1t has, too, entered
into a working arrangement with the
Banque FRANCHISE ct Italienne pour
lAmerique du Sud, on the board of
which the Societe Generate is now rep
resented. 1t has also established new
affiliated bank, entitled the Banque
