A weird and mysterious story
has Just come out OF Asia In the wake of
the failure OF General Charles G. Bruce's
expedition to reach the summit OF Mount
Everest after ascending to within few
hundred feet of the final goal.
The official message which came back
TO civilization stated that the attempt had
been abandoned because OF the unexpoct.
ed early breaking Of the monsoon which
RACED In terrific fury Of wind and icy
rain around the icoclad peak.
But some OF the native Thibetan bearers,
according to an account from Bombay, de-
clare It was not the monsoon that caused
the collapse OF the expedition.
They say II failed because the white
men OF tho party were attacked by "moun-
tain te0r'-that strange psychic malady
which has never been analyzed by western
science, and against which--like she'll
shock ana certain other strange nervous
diseases the hardest bodies and most
courageous souls are at times helpless.
The superstitous natives declare that
this mountain fear was magic spell
cast on the white men by the dreaded
Goddess Mother OF tho Mountains" q Thl
betan deity who Is supposed to dwell amid
the lee and clouds, and to whom the sum

thousands Of years.
She IS the awful "Ice Goddess OF whom

against IL. To have succumbed, II they
did, from this cause, would be no more a
reflection on their courage than IL they had
been struck by lightning"
Whether it was mountain fear or not
that turned them back, other experts de-
clare that whatever It may have been it
was not the monsoon.
The native bearers who were with the
expedition say the monsoon--which Is a
great driving wind and hurricane accom-.
panied by rain that sweeps across Asia
at the opening OF the rainy season--never
reaches the higher Himalayes, and that the
rains and winds which the climbers be.
lteyed to have been the monsoon were
merely passing storm. They assert that
IL the expedition had waited at a height
OF 10000 feet 1t might have encountered
calm, sunshiny days later on, when
the summit could have been reached.
What seems TO have actually happened,
from the reports, is that the party, includ-
ing General Bruce, Captain Finch, Messrs
Mallory, Somerville and Norton, reached
q height OF 26.S00 feet without the use of
oxygen. and that In a final dash from this
point General Bruce, Captain Finch and
one Gurkha made dash with oxygen tanks
for the top, and reached the height Of
$1,000 feet--only 100 feet from the sum.
NIT which Is 29o02 feet high.
Remaining ate26.S00 feet, suffering IN.
credible hardships, other attempts were
made to reach the summit. but without sue
cess. Seven native porters were killed
by an avalanche, and white leaders OF the
party narrowly missed destruction. Even
the failure, however, was a glorious one,
for they had climbed higher than human
beings had ever climbed on foot before
There is much discussion as to whether
q subsequent expedition can succeed where
this one failed. Many believe the failure
The Morning Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Okla.) 1919-1927, 1922-08-06

especially those acquainted with the higher
ranges OF the Ilimalayas, believe there
may be some truth in the story OF the
native guides. II goes without saying that
they do not share the fantastic beliefs OF
the Thlbetan peasants about the Goddess
OF the Mountain" nor do they attribute
any supernatural origin to whatever In
