“I do not believe that Andree and his
two companions will ever come bacs
from their balloon voyage,” said Dr
Wellington Adams yesterday. “The
chances are a hundred to one against
them. It was a foolhardy expedition,
and the men who made it ran a ct eater
risk than if they had stood a hundred
yards from a rifle and allowed an expert
shot to Are point blank at each.
••Nansen’s, Hill’s, Kane’s and -all the
other Arctic expeditions have brought
back information showing that the wind
rushes into the polar basin from the
south, but that none flows out. That
being the case, Andree’* plans will mis
carry. All things favorable he will ar
rive at ?he pole, but will never get out
during the summer season, because of
the lack of the current which he expect
ed would carry him over and back to
civilization.
“Besides, what is to be accomplished
even if he succeeds ? His adventure will
result in nothing more than the absolute
refutal of the open sea fable. From me
teorological, astronomical and scientific
standpoints the voyage can result in
nothing of value. If Andree returns he
will be able to boast that ne has travel
ed over the pole, nothing more.
•‘There is but one way to reach the
90th degree north latitude with any
scientific results, and that, is by estab
lishing a chain of supply stations, each
within communication of the other.
Soch a plan is the only practical solu
tion of the problem. In that manner
the bold adventurers could travel al
most with impunity in the land of the

Spain WII Also Loose the Phillipioes.
San Francisco, July 26.—Among the
passengers on the steamer China from
.the Orient was H. D. Levinsohn, the
choir representative in New Zeland of one of
the largest cigar factories in Manilla.
Mr. Levinsohn has just come from Ma
nilla, where he fays the insurrec
tion of the natives is etill in progress*
“From present indications and from
all l can learn during my sojourn in Ma
nilla,” he said, “the Spanish authorities
wiii never be able to subdue the insur
rectionists. It is common report in Ma
nilla that the papers are not allowed to
print the truth. They are all undti
press censorship. It is creditably re
ported in that city shortly after a recent
esgagement that the natives h.<d killed
sixty of the Spanish soldiers and lost
only two of their numbers. As w*»n as
rainy weather sets, in which will be very
shortly, you inay have some further re
ports of hostilities, and the victories will
be the side of the rebels.

them wore shoes and others did not.

SCHEDULE IN EFFECT JULY 4,1897.
Be js, however, not so difficult to de
tect as this probably true fable about
Copernicns lias led many to suppose.-
Two impediments to Mercury’s observa
tion stood in Copernicus’ way—the one
that Copernicus lived very far north,
the other that the mists at the month of
the Vistula rose nightly to obscure the
twilight sky. The .latter obstacle is
evident, as it made Mercury the reverse;
the former will be none the less appar
ent when we reflect that the path in j
which all the major planets travel is in '
northern latitudes greatly bowed to the
horizon. In consequence, that path is
subject for a long distance from the sun
to all those atmospheric disturbances
peculiar to the horizon, disturbances
which make observations near it prac
tically impossible, and the farther north
the greater the difficulty.
