ARCTIC EXPLORATION.

LIEUTENANT PEARY'S EXPEDITION. [PHESS ASSOCIATION.! NEW YORK, 7th September. , Lieutenant Peary's Arctic expedition left Cape Sabine on the 21st August. It was considered unlikely that he would get far, owing to the ice conditions being very adverse. Spealdng to a press representative just before ho sailed from America, Lieut. Peary detailed his plans as follows :— "From Sydney, Cape Breton, we will proceed across the Gulf of St. Lawrence and through the Straits of Belle Isle, north along the Labrador coast, then across Davis Strait to the west chore of Greenland, then to Melville Bay and the Whale Sound region. Here we will stop to get Esquimaux and dogs and to lay in a supply of walrus meat for the dogs. At Cape Sabine we will establish a sub base, properly equipped with necessary supplies and provisions. At this point my Esquimaux will assemble, those of tho Whale Sound tribe, which are tho best of all Esquimaux. From this tribe I will select twenty or twentyfive of the best hunters and will .take them on board ship with me, along with i their -families. "From Cape Sabine we will drive the I ship through Kennedy and Robeson channels to the northern shore of Grant I Land, where the vessel will be put in I winter quarters. We expect to reach there about the Ist September. , The Arctic night begins then and lasts until February. ' Then, as soon as the long Arctic day begins, wo will alart in our sledges for the Pole. From where we t will leave the ship to the Pole is roughly 490 miles." "What do you expect to find when you reach the Pole?" one of Peary's listeners asked. "I expect nothing," he replied. "Tlxero is .nothing abnormal there. lam sure of that — no open sea, no anything out of the ordinary. Without instruments of precision one might walk .over the exatt spot and never know it."
