Arctic not only is alive and well but has discovered a new land in the north and accomplished practically every purpose for which his hazardous journey was undertaken according to word brought here by the power sehooner Ruby. which arrived yes- terday from Herschel Island.
Stefansson, with two companions,
Storker Stokerson and Ole Anderson, set out from Martin Point, Alaska, March 22, 1014, over the frozen polar ocean to search for supposed new lands in the Beaufort Sea. Captain S; F. Cottle, master of the Ruby, says that Stefansson is now on Bank's Land, east of the MacKenzie, outfit- ting for p. continuance of the explora- tions -to the westward to ascertain the full extent of the new land he has discovered southwest of Prince Pat-
rick Ialand.
Stef nsson discovered a oontinuance
of the continental shelf several de- grees west of Bank‘s Land and even determined its southern limits, but was unable to continue his explora- tions to the north and west.
Stefansson told Captain Cottle that
on the ice north of Martin Point, he and his party companions set their faces to the north, but after continn. ing their journey ninety days they decided to come back. They turned about and landed on the mainland at a point near which the power boat Mary Sachs of the Stefansson exped- ition, was wintering. Here the three men outfitted for another three months trip. They again went upon the ice, going north and west, and. discovering the' continental shelf. Stefansson spent some time explor- ing his new i’lnd, but at lenght, owing to scarcity of provisions, were com- pelled to set out on the return journ- ey. The men had been on the ice for nearly seven months.
Seven Nl'onths on Scanty Ratlons. “The return to shore was accom- plished with great difficulty. The men subslsted on the most meagre rations, but kept moving day after day. Tile dogs were almost famished. Finally the party arrived at Bank’s Land, tlloroughly worn out. For seven mon- tlls they had been on scallty ratiolls, travelling almost continuously. -Stefansson and his companions made
their way from Bank's Land, which is uninhabited. to Bailey Island, which is visited by Whalers. Captain Louis: Lane, cruising on his power schooner foulld Stelansson and his companions making their way along the south- western coast of Bailey Island. They were in excellent health and spirits and eager to reach the southern wing of tlle expedition that they might obtain supplies and 'continue their explorations. Stefansson had expected to _fail _in _with _tha _1?oler_I3_0_ar_._ Just, H9 he did. He immediately chartered the

It is the intention of Stefansson to
establish a base on Bank’s Land and continue `his exploration from' that Point. The time of the return of the expedition cannot be foretold, as Stef- ansson-intends to continue until he 1105 fully ascertained the limits of the new land he has discovered. He will also seek new lands.
Suffsred Few Hardshipa.
Stefansson told Captain Cottle he
and his two companions suffered no particular hardships, although on very short rations during the entire seven months on the ice, they always had enough food to keep hunger away. They did not miss a meal during the whole journey, yet they lived seven molitlis on food designed to last three molltlls.
Captain Cottle reports that the south
ern party, of which Dr. Rudolph An- derson, of Iowa, is commander, were all well at last accounts. The only misfortune experienced by the Ander- son party was the death of engineer D. Blue, of the power boat Alaska,` which occurred at Bailey Island in early spring. Blue was one of the original members of the expedition.
Before departing from Herschel
island for Bank’s Land with the Polar Bear alld Gladiator, Stefansson es- soutltern party and also sent a man east with the power boat Mary Sachs for future operations of the southern party. ~
Jack Hadley, a member of the Kar-
iuk party, rescued from Wrangell Is- land last year, has again joined Stef- ansson.
The southern wing, commanded by
Anderson, is engaged in surveying the islands and mainland about the north of the MacKenzie, charting channels, studying the natives and prospecting for minerals, especially copper. Stefansson, whose despatch indicates that he will take the Polar.. Bear into high latitudes, is devoting himself to exploration, seeking the Polar- coiltlneilt, which nearly all Arctic explorers say will yet be

PARIS, Sept. 17.- “Serbia has
dons her duty fully as nn ally, said Premier Pachltcli. as quoted by '-110 correspondent at Nisll of the Petit Parisian. "First, she has soundly beaten the Austrians in the field. Soc- ond she has made tho concession ask- ed of her by her great Allies in Order to bring Bulgaria into the Balka_n cn- tente. .Whether Bulgaria will 001110 into the entente is another question.
"The Balkan States are deeply con-
cerned over the reported concentra- tion of the enemy north of Serbia for the purpose of going to the assistance of the Turks. As a mutter Of fact- no army of the enemy has assembled on the Danupe. We have continuous and detailed reports from French uviators on`thls point.
"Moreover," the Premier addcd in
a tone of deep conviction, “tho Ser- bianarmy has been recognized and is well ‘supplied with munitions. it would render most dlflicull. for tho enemy the crossing of the mountain- ous country. He would require at least 450.000 mon to make the nt- tempt. Where would the Germans find them now.

Bucharest eays that the leaders oi' all 'the oDD0° sition parties in Bulgaria have held a meeting at which it was decided to publish an appeal to the country ox- plaining the international political situation as affecting that nation._'l‘h0 appeal ‘will be mass on the around that under present circumstances the

attitude taken by the government is perilous.
The Bulgarian government's deci-
sion to make terms with Turkey has met with considerable opposition. Ad- vlces from Bucharest recently repre- sented a majority of Bulgarian states- nlen as favoring a rapproachement with the quadruple entente, Serbia and Greece. '
BUCHAREST, Roumania, Sept. 16
(via London, Sept, 17.- "The Allies know that in no case may they count on Bulgnria’s help on the Gallipoli peninsula," says the semi~ofiiclal ln- dependence Rounlaiane in an article dealing wiiqh the Turco~Bulgarlan agreement. They have lost that part oi' their diplomatic contest in the Balkans. it remains to be seen how the other part will come out. King Ferdinand will leave tomorrow for a week’s vacation on the Danube. This fact completely disposes of reports concerning the activities of Itouman- ian troops on the frontier, which in reality are nothing more than the annual manoeuvres."
EMPLOYMENT 'IN CANADA
AFTER THE WAR.
OTTAWA, Sept. 20.-The names
of the commission decided upon by the Government for the purpose of investigating and reporting upon con- ditions of production, transportation aild employment ln Canada will be announced shortly. This is the com- mission of which the late Sir Wil- liam Van Horne was to have been Chairman. liis death will necessitate the seleclon of a new commissioner conversant with_ transportation and kindred subjects, as the railway faci- lities of the Dominion provide one of the most important aspects of the pro blem which is to be solved, particu- larly the` question of a proper svstem of branch lines to support the
est east and west trunk lines al- ady constructed. . It is understood that the commis- Jn will be a fairly large one and st it may work in groups so as to equately and at the same time ex- ditiously cover the very large field investigation which has been may- d out by the Government. The order-in-council under which e commission will work, provides r an investigation of matters relat- g to scientific production, increased reage and improved methods, the isting facilities of marketing both home and abroad, the desirability providing proper highways still ld storage facilities and the import- ice of_co-operative action by pro-, icers. _, " The question of unslhployment and lnligrstipn, particularly with regard the expected influx wlilm the war over, is to be reported upon and a, etliod advised for handling tgin |m.» igratioli so as to promote th ciilti- ltlon of the great areas of idle land the Dominion.

NEW YORK, Sept. 17.- The over-
running of the United States after the _war by Germans, who will swarm' here when peace is declared, is pre- ,dicted in a letter received yesterday by Alexander M. Hudnut of Hasley & Huneut, stock brokers from their London correspondent. a well-known broker of that city.
The letter echoes _ the opinion.
which, according to recent arrivals from the other side, is coming to he wdely shared, that the United States in spite of its course as to the Lu.sit- anla and the Arabic incidents, has not fulfilled expectations in its pol- icy in regard to the war. The writer says in part:
"Tlls hour; that __the__lirst German
soldiers set foot in Belgium was the commencement of Germany's defeat. In fact, I go further than that. and say the ultimatum (if it can be nalned lhblll which was sent by Germany through Austria was the beginning of the death of German strength and might. ~
“Germany, by revoking hor honor
has met her doom-and we must re- member tllat in the far frontier have no bearing; only men, munitions, and money count. We have nearly as many men as our enemies. We shall soon have a greater supply of muni- tions (thanks a great deal to the Unit- ed States.) and as to money, Ger-- mlny is bankrupt. and our credit is hardly traded upon. This is the whole osition
If .
"Germany, in her snakellke fashion
had poured out millions to stir up re- bellions and trouble in all her enemi- es eolonles_ She totally failed. india , was to rebel. Africa was to rebel. ln the Far East her influence was to be paramount. Millions of pounds spent in f0l'UliIlE her empire all gone.
"We know we must suffer muchand
mourn many, but we have saved and refreshed our honor, and algthe wick. edness of the Great War Lord will have its _lust retribution. The Russi- an retreats she wins, and I only hops and pray that Russia will continue to retreat and contain the German army in Russia for the winter. The Grand Duke knows his land and his people, and a willing retreat means many things besides defeat. If Russia can do this there can be no support for the west.
“Remember also Italy is daily en-
croaching- killing, maintaining, and taking prisoners. All a nihbling, weakening, and Germany has her limlt. It is near at hand.
"The German soldier that is losing
his life today is commercial Germany Where. When. and how can she resus-
citate? She cannot do it.
"l am confident that the Germans
are becoming hard pressed and des- peration of Belgium will be starved and used as a threat, and that our mcn who are prisoners will be like-
\visc treated. " Before"th'i's' letter' reaches' you"l'an7 ticipatc' big events in the Near East. Greece has to make up her mind now or never. Her decision will help to clear up the differences with the other Balkan powers, and, with this settled, the beginning of the end will be in sight. But we shall never get a thing from Germany. She will have nothing for us- not a gold piece, For. tunately for u.s, her colonies can re- pay us ill some degree for the treas-
ilrc we have spent.
“But there is a grave danger tllat
America will be swarmed with ller people. America has, I think, her troubles to come after peace, and silo will need to give more attention to the defence ot’ her real people. I am not sure but what America has failed in her mission as an Englishapeaking nation. It is a grave and great ques-
tion.
"One day when the world reads of
Germany's dastardly and unspeakable acts against all the sundry, I think the best of the Americans will that they did not bestlr their manhood in the protection of humanity and as- sistance in punishing their vile war
party of Germany."
EXERCISE IS LIFE
The arm chair will get you if you
don’t; watch out! Mark Twain proved by statistics that lying in bed was the most deadly of occupations. Now the United States Public Health Service tells that cvery chair upholstered or plain is rife with germs tllat kill. Pri- mitive man was very much on the jump. He was so spry‘ on his-feet that heart and kidney diseases, ap- pendicltis and indigestion were not able to work him into a corner and land a knockout. Superb footwork saved our ancestors from degenera- tion at 40. Walk. Don't stroll; go at a pace that will stretch the stag- nant muscles and rock the vital or- gans that were not intended to sleep twenty-four hours a day. The iirst sign of life is action, the first symp- tom of death is sluggishness. Fifteen active minutes in the open air daily is the best insurance against doctor’s bills. Anrl for most city persons a walk of twenty blocks is a perfect rest. "I am tired" means I need a change." Try walking.-Philadelphia Telegraph.
