THE ANTARCTIC EXPEDITION.
Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. London, July 30. At the Geographical Congress Dr. Murray said he believed the Antarctic interior was a great Continent, and he suggested the landing of a party of young scientists, who should stay two winters in exploring. Dr. Murray proposed to establish an observatory, and maintain a watch on the antarctic continent for two winters. Scientific men willing to undertake the duty could easily be got. The ships would return in the summer. A Government subsidy, however, would be essential to the success of the enterprise.
