NORTH POLE
NOT REACHED.
An Authentic Report from Peary
Expedition.
EXPLORER REACHES SYDNEY-
Lieut. Peary Reports Upon HlsTrlp
—He Says He Has Made Dis
coverles of Interest
North Sydney, N. S., Sept. 18.—
Lieut. Robert E. Peary arrived
here today on the steamer Wind
ward from the frozen north. He
did not discover the north pole
during his ti ip ot four years, but
he says that in his last dash with
that object in view he made im
portant discoveries. He says he
feels certain that the pole can be
reached and furthermore that if
he were a man of independent
means he would persevere until he
succeeded. The most northerly
point reached was S4 degrees 17
minutes in latitude, northwest of
Cape Hecla. Lieut. Peary says
that the pole can be reached from
Grant laud in latitude 83 degrees,
if the winter quarters are establish
ed as far north as possible. He
says that he would just as soon
winter at Cape Hec'la as at Sabine
or Etah.
On board the Windward also
was Mrs. Peary, who is just re-
covering from a fortnight's illness
and who is glad in reaching land
once more. She is expected to re
cuperate quickly on proceeding to
a more congenial climate.
Little Marie Peary and others of
the party are in good health.
Lieut. Peary is recovering from
an accident to one of his legs from
which he suffered last winter. He
is slightly lame although this is not
especially noticeable.
Neither Peary nor Dr. Dedrick
would make a statement pertaining
to their reported quarrel some time
ago. The Windward’s crew sav
that the two men have had no in
tercourse whatever since the doctor
was taken on board at Cape York,
where he spent the winter. Dr.
Dedrick leaves tomorrow for his
home in New York.
The Windward’s cargo includes
many cases of relics from the north
and a number of live animals for
Central park, New York city.
PEARY S REPORT. ,
Peary sent to the club the fol
lowing report of operations of the
expedition since Aug. 9, 1901:
“Left Erik harbor, on the Elles
mere coast, Aug. 29. The party
reached Payer harbor Sept. 16,
crossing Roose bay partly by
sledges and partly by boat, then
walking across before Pirn. About
a week later my Eskimos began to
fall sick, not one escaping. By
Nov. 19 six adults and one child
were dead, nearly all the others
very weak but out of danger.
“Early in January Eskimos
came across from Anvilak, bring
ing news of the ravages of a fatal
epidemic through the tribe. Word
was sent back by these scouts for
as many of the survivors as could
come to me and by the end of the
month they began arriving. In
February a large depot of dog food
was established near Cape Louis
Napoleon, some sixty miles north
of Sabine. On March 3 my ad
vance party of six sledges in charge
of Hensen left for Conger. March
6 started with the main party of
eighteen sledges, leaving Percy in
charge at Payer harbor. Conger
was reached in twelve marches,
arriving within an hour or two of
the advance party. My supporting
party of Eskimos returning from
Conger brought down the instru
ments, chronometers and arctic
library. Eight marches more took
us to Cape Hecla. The north end
of Robinson channel was all open
across the Greenland coast. From
Hecla, the supporting party re
turned. April 1 started northward
over the Polar sea with Hensen,
four Eskimos and six sledges.
Old floes covered deep with snow
and intersected with rubble ridges
and lanes of young ice were en
countered from the moment we
left the ice foot.
“The same kind of traveling,
except the lanes of young ice, as
found by the English expedition in
1876. After six marches, open
leads, floes in motion were encoun
tered. As we advanced the floes
became smaller, the pressure ridges
on a grander scale, and the open
leads more frequent. Each day’s
march was more perilous and our
general course deflected west by
the character of the ice. Finally
at 84.17 north latitude, northwest
of Hecla, the Polar pack became
impracticable and further efforts
to advance were given up. New
leads and pressure ridges with
foggy weather made our return in
some respects more trying than
the advance. Hecla was regained
April 25 and Conger May 3. Leav
ing Conger May 6, Cape Sabine
was reached on the 15th. A few
days later went north as far as
Cape Louis Napoleon to complete
the survey of Bobbit bay, returning
the Ist of June.
ICE BROKE UP EARLY.
‘‘The ice broke up earlier than
in 1901 and Payer harbor was
blockaded almost continuously.
“The Windward bored her way
through the ice and entered the
harbor the morning of Aug. 5 and
got out again the same afternoon
with scarcely fifteen minutes to
spare before the harbor was closed
by the ice. Forcing her way
across Smith Sound, my Eskimos
with their belongings were landed
in Ughfield gulf. Then the Wind
ward started south, reaching Cape
York the afternoon of Aug. 28.
The Windward arrived at Chateau
bay, Labrador, Sept. 14, and sent
dispatches. The year at Payer
harbor was passed comfortably,
though an anxious strain caused
by the ravages of disease among
my faithful people was not light.
Food was abundant. The northern
sledge trip in the spring was
arduous but not marked by special
exposure, suffering or danger more
than is necessarily incidental to
such serious arctic work. Equip
ment and personnel were satisfac
tory and further advance was ve
toed by insuperable natural condi
tions. The Windward has on
board the instruments, chronome
ter and the arctic library abandon
ed by the Greely expedition and
numerous specimens of natural
history, bear, musk ox, reindeer
and walrus skins.
“The skeleton of a two-horned
narwhale, a rare arctic specimen,
also living specimens of the musk
ox, arctic hare and Eskimo dogs
also are on board. The anchor
and chain lost by the Erik last
summer is on board. The Eran
left Godhoun about Aug. 20 home
ward bound. She has been in
Souer Sound, from whence it is
understood explorations were made
to the northwest. One death (a
fireman) is reported since. Others
on board said to be well. The
little schooner Forget Me Not,
which was caught in the ice at
Cape Haven last year, is now on
her way to St. John.’’
This report, signed by Peary,
is addressed to Secretary H. D.
Bridgman of the Peary Arctic club.
Peary will sail for New York to
morrow.
The square man measures the
same each way and hasn't any
crooked or cheap lumber about
him. He is free from kuots and
sap and don’t warp. He is clear
stuff and it makes no difference
what you work him up into, he
won't shrink. He is among men
what good kiln dried boards are
among carpenters, won't season or
crack. It doesn’t make and differ
ence which side of him you come
up to, he is the same size each way,
and the only way to get at him
anyhow is to face him. He knows
he is square and he never spends
any time trying to prove it. The
square man is one of the best shap
ed men in the world. He is one
of those kind of chunks you can’t
alter to fit the spot, bin must alter
the spot to fit him. —Ex.
