CHELUSKIN CASTAWAYS
Position Now Serious AEROPLANES FORCED BACK iH.v Telegraph—Press Assn—Copyright.) (Received 24, 10.10 a.m.) MOSCOW, Fell. 23. The position of the Cheluskin’s castaways is now serious, if not critical. Aeroplanes endeavoured to reach the refugees, but were forced to return owing to severe storms and heavy clouds. The broken, floating character of the ice makes rescue by dog teams practically impossible. The ice-field on which the castaways are camped is shifting steadily at a speed of three miles a day.
