ANTARCTIC EXPLORATION.
THE MACKAY EXPEDITION,
(Received January 26, 11.12 a.m.) LONDON, Jan. 25.
Dr. Mackay, in the course of an interview, said that he intended starting for Graham's Land about August, and he would be absent two years. The relief ship would meet the party at the great ice barrier or at Hut Point, but if icebound the party will cross the Ross ice barrier for Shackleton's or Scott's huts, and replenish their supplies.
