Macmillan, Arctic explorer, who has
arrived here with his schooner Bow

He declared he believed it i'm
possible for any vessel to make a
trip through the Funny and Hecla
straits in the Arctic regions. Large
ice fields block the passage in Fox
channel and reverse tides made the
journey a feat which no vessel could
perform, he said.
According to Captain Macmillan,
observations of the entire west coast
of Baffin Land cannot be made un-
less the voyage is made through
Cumberland Sound and thence across
land to the coast.

fraud perpetrated on the court as part
of conspiracy to have receivers ap-
pointed for the Greene concerns.
He denied that the Greene Company
sought out persons of limited means
as subscribers to its stock or that he
or any person authorized by him ever
made false and fraudulent representa-

He neither admitted nor denied the al
legations that the Greene Company re-
ceived s5,512,200 from it's subsidiaries
and that the subsidiaries received S.

called upon the plaintiffs to prove
them. He asserted however, that none
