SEAECH FOR NANSEN
A CHICAGO SYNDICATE TO
1 nc KtsuUE.
KataorologUt Ttnldwta f rimrj-i rirst Ex
pedition WiU Be in Charge What to
xpeetcd of tha Joarney In an Incidental
lTny The Ina River.
Chicak, Feb. 18.Th recent ro-
porta concerning- tbe return of Dr.
Manaen from the North pole have in
dueed a Chicago syndicate to send a
Prty at once te the Lena river to as
certain the foundation for the ac
counts received, as well as to assist, if
possible, the returning- explorers in
their probable march toward either
Yakutsk or Irkutsk. The man selected
to lead the party is Evelyn B. Bald
win, the meteorologist of Lieutenant
deary's North Greenland expedition
of 1893 and 1894.
In an interview, Mr. Baldwin said:
"Barring- such information concerning1
Dr. Nansen'B whereabouts as would
make the proposed trip inexpedient, I
shall go direct from Ban Francisco to
Viadivostock on the Paoiflo coast,
more than 8,000 miles from St Peters
burg, and from Viadivostock to Ir
kutsk, making the first 430 miles by
railway and the remaining distance
by post. Twenty-two days will be oc
cupied in making the transit The
time to be consumed between Chicago
and Irkutsk will be about fifty days."
"But suppose you should fail to find
Dr. Nansen?"
"Well, that is possible, of course.
Bat If Nansen's party is now some
where in the vicinity of the delta of
either the Lena or the Yena rivers,
it will be impossible for them to reach
civilization by any other course than
by way of either Yakutsk or Irkutsk.
To move Nansen's entire party to
either of these points would require
not less than eight weeks and after an
exhausting struggle to gain the native
settlements at either delta, probably
that of the Yena, Dr. Nansen doubt
less would hesitate to exchange the
safety of his men among the hospita
ble Inhabitants of the coast for the
tryinsr journey southward until
warmer weather and the opening of
navigation on the Lena. Even should
it be demonstrated that the explorers
are not now in that vicinity, it is not
at all improbable that they will be
heard from before the close of the
season in that region.
"What other objects will your trip
include?"
"To watch, of course, for the pos
sible return of Professor Andree in his
baiioon. As Andree'a experiment is to
be tried in July, a close watch is to be
kept at all points in North America, as
wall as in Europe and Asia, for its ap
pearance, Greater interest will prob
ably attach to Andree's novel and
daring undertaking than is now mani
fested in the return of Nansen. I
shall give incidental attention to
other matters of scientific interest,
and I shall return by way of Omsk
and St Petersburg, the railway being
complete between those points. I ex
pect to visit the gold and silver mines
along the route and to investigate the
commercial advantages resulting to
the United States from the westward
route of travel and traftio to the in
terior of Siberia, and which must also
quicken trade between Japan and
China as well."
FRENCH POLITICAL CRISIS.
Senators and Deputies Are Disagreed and
the Constitution Endangered.
Pabis, Feb. IS. The political crisis
which has risen out of the second de
mand of the Senate for a vigorous and
thorough inquiry into the Southern
railway scandals and its second re
fusal of a vote of confidence in the
Bourgeoise ministry is cow practically
a struggle between the Chamber of
Deputies, which has supported the
radical ministry and the Senate. How
ever, in spile of the acute crisis and
the possibility of the downfall of tbe
ministry or even a dissolution of the
parliament, there is little excitement
here this morning outside of tbe
newspaper offices. It is claimed that
the resignation of the ministry would
not alter matters, as it appears to be
bo longer a question of confidence or
of non-confidence in the cabinet. The
Chamber of Deputies in defying the
Senate has endangered the constitu
tion and the result is a condition of
affairs which the extremists believe is
as threatening as any since the trouble
some times of 1 870-71. The news
papers are filled with excited articles
and interviews with political leaders,
asd many of them have expressed the
opinion that a constitutional solution
of the problem is impossible.
The Conservatives and Socialists de
mand a dissolution of Parliament and
the Liberals and Republicans agree
that a dissolution is advisable; but
they claim it should take place under
another cabinet

New York, Feb. 1 8. At the time of

All owners of commercial establish

WILL FIGHT ON FRIDAY
Connolly Posts a New Forfeit for Mayer's
Appearance,
El Paso, Tex., Feb. 18. A compro
mise has been reached and the fight is
now positively set for Friday, Con
nelly posting $1,000 to guarantee
Maher's appearance in the ring on that
day. This is the result of the morn
ing conference. Julian appeared at
the conference at 10:40 and Fitzsim
mons came in a few minutes later.
There was a short conference and
it was declared that Stuart's pres
ence was necessary. Stuart could
not be found and a two hour's
wait ensued. Julian agreed to sub
mit the whole affair to a com
mittee of five. Fitzsimmons declared
he would not fight unless he got a for
feit, which Connelly refused. Fitz-
simmons ana Julian bad the best of
the argument, but they got the worst
of the deal. After Julian and Con
nelly had wrangled lor some minutes
Fitzsimmons broke in with great heat
and declared that as long as he could
not get the $1,000 forfeit money he
would not fight lie said he was
ready to enter the ring at that mo
ment and Maher was not Turning to
Connelly, he said:
"You are all a pack of bloody curs.
You are afraid to fight and your man
has not been able to get into condition
because he has been afraid all along."
Then waving his arms, he yelled to
the crowd of newspaper men and spec
tators: "Gentlemen, the whole thing is off.
I refuse to fight Maher unless I am
paid my forfeit money. I am willing
to fight Maher, Corbett or any man in
the world."
Later Fitzsimmons was cooled off,
the matter was talked over again and
the agreement for a fight on Friday
was reached.
The committee named by Connelly
decided that the articles of agree
ment of December 6 were abro
gated Friday and that under the
circumstances Julian could not justly
claim forfeit The committee con
sisted of Dan Stuart, George Siler,
Louis Housemann, William W. Naugh
ton, Tom O'Rourke and Hugh Fitz
gerald. Nearly all of the prize fighters went
over to Juarez yesterday afternoon to
attend the bull fights. Four horses,
worth about $3 each, were gored to
death, four bulls were tortured and
slain and the arena was covered with
blood. The Mexicans, as uspal,
howled with delight at the spectacle
of a horse being ripped open, but tVe
fighters came back disgusted to the
last degree. Fitzsimmons, Leeds,
Barry, Walcott and Everhardt were
there, and all of them are trying to
figure out how a people who can tol
erate the sickeniDg sight of the bull
pen can object to prize fighting with
gloves.
