It nlll be fol lowed In a weak by the Peary Arctic club's steamer Olatm , Captain Samuel Bartlotl , also from itah. The Windward report * that nl ! on board the Diana were well at the Unit the vessels separated. The tno steamers met at Etah August 12 and vorked In company under the per sonal dlicctlon of Lieutenant Peary In col lecting supplier for winter and equipment for next spring's campaign. The Wind ward wa.'i Ice-bound In Allraan bay on the west sldo of Kane basin about fitly mile * north ol Cape Sablnc , from August 18 , 1S9S , to August 2. 189I > , being In a sort of eddy undisturbed by wind or current. The season was ono of continuous calm with very little snow , the minimum temperature at the hhlp being 70 degreea below zero. All the Windward's company , Including ten Esquimaux , were exempt from Illness , ac- cldont or casualty of any kind , Lieutenant Peary and the sledge parlies were In the field almost continuously from October , 1S98 , until August this year , have executed a large amount of work , not only hearing on this expedition , but adding to the geographical knowledge of the coast and. the Interior of Ellesmereland and the south coast of Orlnnclland His sle'lclng Journeys aggregated more than l.OOU miles , Including several trips repeated over vor- tlons of the track. As foon as the young Ice cuuld bear n sledge Lieutenant Peary nialo a careful reconnalsaanco of the coast line southwest of Allman bay and caicfuily J'jflncd the lands and wate- between that point and Cape Sablne. The coast line of PilnreiU Marie hay and Buchanan strait , heretofore unknown , was accurately de'iivd , and Hayes sound was tiemons-MMtcd to bo n myth. This work being completed , Lieutenant Peary noxc nalc sevcia ) rtJr.liug trips and laid In atmple supply or fresh Jie.U. Including m 's'h ) \ 'u , Etals nnJ birds for the winter. Utilizing the December moon , ho sledged along the Ice for 250 miles rorth , over almost Impassible Ice to Fort Conger , the headquarters of the Orecly expedition. Ho had the misfortune to have both feet frostbitten , which caused six weeks' delay and confinement until ho could make the return trip. Lashed to a sledge ho was hauled all the way to the Windward , where several toes were ampu tated. Complete recovery followed rapidly , an3 he now walks as well aa ever. Tiiblc Stood Sixteen Ycnrn. Lieutenant Peary found Fort Conger ex actly as Greely left It. The table wa standing from the last meal and all th other appointments had remained undis turbed for sixteen years. The buildings were in fair condition , though some of them would not bo serviceable much loncer. He took possession of all the property , real and personal , In the name of the United States government and posted notices to that eftect. Ho brought away and is sending home the original Greely record , the sextant of Lieu , tenant Baumant , U. N. , of the Harcs-Mark- recovered by Lieutenant ham expedition of 1876-8 tenant Lockwood and many private letters and papers of members of Greely's party , all of which are to bo forwarded to the Peary Arctic club ot New York. A con siderable quantity of provisions was also found and protected for future emergency. Ho also pushed a reconnaissance beyond Fort Conger to Capo Berehy , finding prac tically the same conditions of Ice and sea as south of the former point. Subsequently ho made a second trip to Fort Conger and In all 'our parties from the Windward reached that point and returned without further accident. As a result of the winter work four tons of provisions , two at Con ger and the others distributed between Capo Sublne , Durvllle , Louis Naprleon , Frazer and other points not more than flfty miles apart , have been deposited and both natives and whites engaged In the work have been made BO familiar with the route and caches that all risk to life and limb along this path Is practically ended. A boat Is also cached nt Cape Louis Napoleon. Lieutenant Peary's last sledge Journey was an overland exploration westward from the winter quarters of the Windward , completely crossing Ellesmere land nnd connecting his work with that of Lieutenant Lockwood of the Greely expedition at the fiord bearlng- ' the latter's name on the western Do'rd. Ellesmcreland was found practically Ice free and to contain much game. The water to the west coast , as for as could bo seen , was comparatively clear of Ice. Hl winter headquarters Lieutenant Peary has established nt Etah , ono of the eligible points on the east side of Smith sound. It ia a mlle or so north of Hayes' winter Quarters In 1861 , five miles south of Life Boat Cove , In which the Polaris wintered , and six mllea north of Cape Alexander. Ample supplies for the remainder of the time of the expedition , not less than fifty lees , have been landed , forty tons of which went by the Peary Arctic club's steamer Diana nnd the sloop yacht Sonta , the gift of Benjamin Hoppln of Baddock , C. B. , to Lieutenant Peary , Is anchored In the bay , but will bo hauled up before winter sets In. Ho haa built a commodious living and work ing room for himself and companions In which they will bo thoroughly comfortable duilng the winter , and ho has nearly levonty-fivo walrus for the natives and the dogs , when the sledging begins. The winter will bo spent In rest. In Febiuary a reunion of the natives will be held , when the dog teams for the northern trip will be selected. The picked natives of tlio Wlndwcrd will remain with Lieu tenant Peary during the winter. Ths Fram wln'ered ' near Cocked Hat Island , ten miles ucst of Cape Sabln , U got out of the lee about August 1 , reached Ktnh Augu&t 12 , and left the same day for Capo Babln. It Is reportbd that it will go to Jones sound for the winter , unless It .iicctooa In getting beyond Kennedy ctian- nel and landing Captain Otto Svordrup for a sledge trip atross nnd around the northern enJ of Greenland , o bo picked up on the east coast by the Windward , The Peary Arctic club expedition In com mand of Herbert Brldgman , eecretary of the club , was at Etah , August 21 , All were II and rxpeoted to leave for home August I " fi" i > sr v \\ar successfully landed August 5 At a point of Ita own selection , harbor , tie mlle south of Cape Sablne , where tbo members expect to w Inter. riincrnl of I/ee 1'orliy , An Informal conference was held Monday night * between representatives of the Thurston IV.ttee and Knlghtu of Pythlaa over arrangements for the funeral of Captain l.ee Forby , which will take place from the Hided armory next Sunday after noon It will be In charge of the two organizations mentioned , according to the w'.sh of the parents of the dead E > td ! r.

Every where on the downtown ctreets could bo teen thc souvenirs which all those who hal wisely taken time to visit the great store were carrying , and by night fully 18,000 of these had been given out , to be taken home and used to help beautify a rcom. Never before , at an opening of this Im mense store , has such a number oflsltors been entertained , nor so handsomely , n > t even nt the Informal opening held a week .r two ago , when the new departmenta added during the summer were thrown 'pen to the public The reason for this was doubtlesa the many lines < t new fall goods shown In practically every department. It wai noteworthy that the management of the store and all the salesmen and ealcsw men made th TC who came merely to examine new styles as welcome as those who caino to buy. This served to make hun dreds of women familiar with the new Ideas of the season In a way which dayd of or dinary shopping would not have accom plished. The most popular department In thc store Is that of fall and winter wraps and womenVi suits. Here wan every conceivable need of the most fattldlous woman In the way of outer garments , nnd , needless to say , the fastidious woman was" represented there from loon until late at night , stud ) Ing the latest cuts and the handsomest products of the looms to her heart's content. Supple mentary to these was a line rf the most expensive furs , which every visitor admired 1-ng and ardently. Fall styles In furniture sounds tvomevshat odd , but It Is a fact that certain lines of furniture experience a renewed activity at this siacon of the year , and consequently the effort of the factories Is to meet this demand with new and more handsome pieces , than havn before been on sale. The Pco- | pie's Store showed yesterday some mag- ' nlllcent parlor and bedroom sets , which may be classed PS fall furniture. Tbo sale of furniture from this store has never hern so heavy as nt present The shoe department , thnugh not n new department It appeared to be new yesterday by reason of the new goods displayed. The constant Inquiry was : "What will bo the right thing In shoes this winter ? " and by way of answer the goods themselves are shown. The china and crockery , occupying the entire basement floor , constitute a store In themselves , with beautiful nnd really artistic wares to show , and some of the daintiest , tableware Imaginable.

FEW CARPENTERS AT WORK AVnltltiK to llrnr from tlip NntlonnI Uxcontlvr Committee In I'hllnilclpliln. In cplte of the positive assertions on the part of the carpenter lendcrn that at least one-half of their men are at work , n cau- \an of the many contracts shown that > cry few men , cither carpenters , bricklayers , plumbers or painters , arc working , and each day from now until the tnattcr Is settled ono way ot the other will see less men nt work. A number of carpenters have left the city to find employment elsewhere , pending the trouble. Some have gone to South Omaha , others to Council BlufTs , whiro others have gwie still further from home. But In all Instances they are re ceiving no higher wages than they did be fore the "walk-out" occurred. As near an can be learned the carpenters nre now relslng upon what they hear from the national executive committee In Phila delphia as to how to proceed. The facts leading up to and causing the "walk-out" have been laid before that committee and Its sanction asked for If the committee gives Its approval of thu cour c taken by the carpenterb , then they will be In a posi tion to order a general strike and thereby attempt to foroo the contractors , who nro now holding out , to pay the demands made upon them. Should the committee dccldo that tLe carpenters have not given the con tractors sufficient time In which to pay the Increase asked for there is nothing left for the carpenters to do but to return to work at the old scale glvo another notice for an Increase and commence the fight over again. It Is thought the carpenters will hear from Philadelphia today and that the communication will bo read at the meeting of the carpenters to be held In I abor twn- ple In the evening. The Building Trade * council will cnect Thursday night and It Is expected that that body will take some ac tion. Up to date , the council has refused to sanction the action of the carpenters and the appeal to the national executive com mittee was as much to get Its sanction over the head of the local organization on It waste to receive the financial aid of the national council which assistance local unions are entitled to when out on a legitimate and recognized strike.
