The Vice. president of the railway has decid- ed against. the sale of these cars as being unprofitable, as it would be necessary to send out a crane to re_ move the cars from the rails.

DETAIiS or IJISA_§TER

Have Been Revealed By Examination of Diary Found On D e a d Explorer's Body.

(Associated Press)

STOCKHOLM, Sept. ilk-Details of the disaster that overtook Salomon August Andree's pioneer polar bal- loon expedition 33 years n80. have been revealed by examination of the diary found on the dead explorers

_ body in White Island by‘ Dr. Gun-

ner Horns party. Came Down Ou lce

The balloon. it is now definitely established, came clown on the ice July 14, 1897, three days after And- ree set out from Danes Island, Spits- bergen. The explorers landed on the ice in latitude s3 north, longitude 30 east. The diary, however, leaves ob- scure the cause of the landing. The position given is almost due north of ‘White Island. it is on a line between the Island and the North Pole, goal of the heroic pioneers of aerial polar exploration. It is less than half way between the two points, being nearer (he Island. The distance from the Pole is roughly 500 miles and White Island, roughly 200 miles. The cx- plorers therefore covered a 200 mile trek back to the camp where they died.

Balloon Caught Afire

Fire broke out on the balloon, the d1"? reveals, at seven p. m. on the day previous (July l8). ‘This was immediately crtlnxuishbd. Appar- ently it caused little serious damage, for the last entry in the diary re- ferring to the bailoonb voyage says "The balloon again rose but both valves were then opened in prepar- |ation for a landing." Previous en- I

tries show that wet weather, ice and ‘hear frost had weighted down the |bis ans bag, and that the gondola |had been dragged along the ice many times during the latter part1 of the flight from Spitsbergen. The: bumping against the rough surface, 10f the ice completely exhausted the? 1 explorers.
