IIU Keval Iltghnejt had the jreet roerit of having persomllf rranlawd asd Cited out the expedition in everr detail, sad an expedition had seldom sailed which had been so carefully and thoroughly equipped. Iu recoils were of great importance, for It had finally dia covered lb northern limits of the Frans Josef group, sad confirmed Nanato's discovery of deep ocean: to tha north while the sledging party tinder Captain Cagni reached the hlcbest northern latitude vet attained. Jf it could be arranged, the Duke of the Abruzxi would bo pleated to gut the society aa account of his expedition in the rioorse of the eexsion. Ike Danish expedition to East OreeoUnd had also returned, after successful! continuing the work of Dr. Nathorst last year, while a Norwegian whaler was able to follow the coast to 73 30" N.

Thus the dotted line which had so lone indicated the Euimoaod position of the East Greenland coast on our rasps would cow give place to a definite surrerod Hoe, thank chiefly toMhe rrwTtnas caoro or lJamsn gvograpcers and explorers since the days of Crash. New of the xfcedltirsns of Sverdrun sad Peary up Smith Sound was still anxiously awaited. The Windward went out to bring then succour, bet she had not yet returned. The two recent expeditions to the Antarctlo regions had both supplied us with valuable information. The British Antarctic expedition was now, at last, asking progress as equipment and other arrangements.

The ship was in an advanced state. Captain Scott, K.N., the com toander of the expedition, was only able to take charge last August, but be had already shown that he poascswd many of those qualities which were essential for so' diflcult and responsible a post. The German expedition was far more adTanced than the British in every depart Bent, of its workr undfr the direction of iu able and ncconplished commander, Ton DrjgaJskl but this was; because hi committees had seen the wisdom of giving him a perfectly free hand. The commsnders of the two expeditious had bad an opportunity of becoming friends aiai of exchanging tiers during the autumn, and Captain. Scott, if not too much trammelled by committees, would soon make up for lost time.

Dr. Sven lledin tad during the past year been actively at work in the Lob nor country and the basin of the Tarun, and his archsological discoveries would throw a flood of light on the past history of that region. In. Africa the greatest amount of geographical work had been done this year. But a renew of it must, alas I commence with a reference to the loss of a valued explorer.

It was only last session that Captain YeIlbyV father read the account of hi gallant son's splendid geographical achievement in marching from Abyssinia to the Nile. All would remember how they looked forward to welcoming him on his return from the front. Now that could never be. Captain AYellbyhad fallen fighting for his country in a most righteous war. (Cheers.) It was a glorious death, fitting close of an adveatnrons and active life.

We were left to mourn the death of a young oflccr Mho was a crest explorer and an ornament to the; Army. "(Cheers.) llis noble example had been followed by others there had been remarkable activity in the exploration of Africa this year. Major Gibbons had followed Mr. Grogan from tho Cape to Cairo, iir. Hoore had returned after his important investigation of, the Central African lakes.

Mr. Harrison had brought; home an admirable nsp of the region between Lake RodoU and Adis Abeba. The society's gold medallist, Lr'ourtatUiad safely returned after his wonderful journey; across the Sahara, of which he had promised to send some account. Last, but certainly not least. Dr.

Donaldson Smith, who was an old friend and known to all from his previous work (cheers), had made very remarkable journeys, involving new discoveries between Lake Budolf and the Nile, lie wss glad to learn that serious steps had been taken under the Intelligence Department to carry out administrative surreys of all those territories in Africa which were directly dependent on the home Govern meat, and that in conjunction with the other European; Towers which had African possessions. Dr. Dcceaumos Smith then gave the account of his expedition from the Somali coast to the Nile. After! considerable diucolties with the local oEcials, which inyclred the fitting out of three distinct expeditions. Dr.

Donaldson Smith started from Berbers on August 1, 1S39. Owing to the desertion of soma of his Sikh followers, he be cm to cross the Hand with 17 Somalia and as many Gurkhas and Sikhs, besides his assistant, Mr. Frazer, and aGoarneso cook. The expedition marched by way of and if a t. 1 1 1 I ooeneii to ute sneoeu river, iu iouovcti oeuig increasea to 43 on the way.

The Shebelt was reached on September 8 at a spot called Godi, over 400 miles from Berber by road and on September II the expedition started west again, and between Uohulle and JJere followed the lice of march traversed by Dr. Smith in 1S95. in tne first journey be saw the worst side or tae Aoyssiruan method of annexation, but his more recent observations showed him that the Abyssinians treatment of tribes once brought thoroughly to submission was In the firrt aUarVi the Abyssinians were certainly very cruel but later they restored to the natives a large pro portion of their belongings and very nearly their original self government, only a moderate tax being imposed. Prom the Somalia to the Boron he was surprised to find the natives quite as rich, apparently, as they were before they came" "under Abyssinian rule. Leaving El Dere, which is shout equidistant (750 miles) from Berbers and the Nile, the expedition inarched through broken and very Wooded country, abounding in elephants, and here the Somali followers gave much trouble.

They were never satisfied unless they had over ten pounds of camel'meator mutton a day each, and when food was scarce Dr. Smith' bad to be on the alert constantly to prevent them from poisoning transport animals or stealing sheep. But the Somalia were not such miserable thieves as most of the and their superb physical condition, swif footed ness, endurance, and intelligence were remarkable. Of the titw Qurkhas four only were pure blooded, and these were among the best men in camp. But the others, together with'some of the Siths, continually tried to hide; if the march were and had to be hunted up.

Two who evaded the search parties were never heard of again. After leaving Goff the expedition reached an altitude of over in the Boran highlands, when suddenly the caravan was brought to an abrupt halt by a precipice that sheared oil almost perpendicularly to a broad plain below. Five marches were occupied in crossing this plain, where Dr. Smith obtained a specimen of a tiny gazelle which had been proved tofce new to science. On November 26 the valley of Lake Stefanie was entered, and here the expedition ecauredmnch hardship by the burning of the camp and the shortness of water, lor the water of the lake was found to be so briny that it wss undrink able.

Lake Rudolf was reached on December 10. The formerly rich tribe of Ilusia was found no longer to exist, and no human beings were seen until the river Nianam wss reached. A remarkable change in the fauna was now observed. Between the Nianam and the Nile there was not only si completely different set of birds, but scarcely any of the mammalia were the same as had been found a this eastern section of the journey. On January 3 the Omo river was left behind.

It wss now found that, as the expedition approached, the natives fled to tho hills and seemed, inclined to fight. They sppeared to be a branch of the Turkaca. One day a number of them attacked two of Dr. Smith's camelmen, and were only driven off by firing, but this was the only case of attempted hostilities on the whole journey. After leaving i tha highlands and crossing at right angles the line of march of the late Captain MTellby, the Magois were encountered.

These were quite different in appearance and customs from any tribe previously met with. They had the heavy build and large features of the Sudanese, and the lines of raised tattooing which are so character datic of the people about the Nile. They seemed to care principally for small red beads, which they wore worked In gorgeous patterns. They were the only people, too, whom Dr. Smith had seen wearing a xebra's tail suspended from the elbow.

Contrary to the advice of these natives the expedition set out "into the plain westwards, tnd here they suffered considerably from the difficult ground and the scarcity of water, and many transport r.H nioch valuable baggage were lost. After searching for a better route for many days, a branch of the Magois calling themselves Katna were encountered, and Dr. Smith was surprised to find them cow worshippers, Indulging in certain rites supposed to be peculiar to the Hindu religion. On reaching the most northern extension of the Uganda highlands on February 15 the Akara were met with. Many of ties natives were agriculturists as well as stock raisers and had substantial wooden.

hrellings. Villages were passed which might easily have contained 1,500 inhabitants. Dr. Smith secured at this stage of the Journey the only sredmens ever obtained of the spotted bush buck. On March 2 Lockall was rseebad, and there Dr.

Smith received a visit in Stale from King Amare, who commanded perhaps 25,000 warriors. "Fort Berkaliiv mm marlyvi on March 14 last. Aa bo steamers had however, the followers of tW expedition had to be sent down to Mombasa after waiting a month. But on May 5 a gunboat arrived, and Smith and his collections were carried down to Cairo. That city was reached Just ten months after tho departure of the expedition from the Somali coast, was illustrated by a very Interesting series of lantern tildes.

At its conclusion, who has travelled in apart of the couadeecrfbed I ta the paper, congratulated Dr. Donald Son Smith on the (access of his expedition, sad Dili BowDLia Buxsn, on behalf of the cthorities of the British Museum, thanked him for the interesting collec xJops which he had presented to the PBESTDxar, in proposing a cordial vote of thanks to Dr. Donaldson Smith, said that Dr. Smith's papers could sot possibly giro an adequate Idea of the very important geographical work which he had done, Ifi had sot only thoroughly explored a large tract of Africa, but be bad made a most valuable, series of suite; a and some ytrr Interesting collections. Dr.

Smith had earned a TBB BOBBS AND THZ TO TUB EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Blr, I' bar Jnsi retomod from 6U Helena, where by the kindness of the last Secretary of State for War sad the onclais ox Deadwood Camp I have been allowed to rtsit tUtlsriners of war and hire free iourwurt with them. Reflecting over what have beard here sines ray return, th question has forced itself on me whether the time has not come when a serious effort to enter into communication with the Boera might be mad 'with advantage. Th war hat entered on new and regrettabl stag As the sray rsnoot b'ffd without the nllwsy, andaa th railway can be cut anywhere by a Tew mounted men, and it Is Impossible to guard every yard of this extended eomrnunicatJon, it has been found necessary to endenvoer to make tli Boers afraid to meddle with by barnlnc their farma and deporting their women and children. The various proclamations with this object are not oreasant at home, while mis son 01 worx must be profoundly distasteful to the army at the front moreover, they bid fair to characterize the war for all time as a cruel war, and to gain for us a hard reputation amongst nations who may not have the will or desire to take into consideration the circumstances under which th ri tVen: The military severities may be necessary, but they are, of course, disastrous to both sides Great indignation is felt in England that the Boers should still carry on a desperate struggle which causes ererr dav the deaths of ben on both side who would ba better alive, as their loss confessedly makes no differ ence in the final result.

We must remember, however. that extreme misery has never yet taught, and never wil teach, wisdom to men.lt drives men to desperate counsels. How many Boers continue to fight, end will continue to tho last to fight, because they aro hopeless either of the final result of the war or of their prospects of ever again makinc: a livelihood out of their farms They believe the best they can expect is to be put back on a ruined farm without stock or capital, and that if they do not starve there they will soon be sold up ss bankrupts and have nothing before them but work in tho mines. No one who knows the Boer but will recog' nlzo that to them death in the field is preferable to this fate. Desperate men who have no hope simply fight till thrv are killed, and the Boers now in the field are desperate men.

The correlative of submission has always in war been protection. But owing to the immense extent of country the English army has found it impossible to give any pro taction whatever to farmers who took the oath of neutrality. "I have marched with the Boer army all along tho western frontiers of tho Transvaal and Orange a very intelligent man said to me, and I hare seen the utterly defenceless condition ot those noor farmers." Unless one has been among the Boers it is scarcely possible to realise the calamitous results of this lack of the usual protection where the oath has been administered. Under these circumstances we have the greater obliga tion to take all possible precautions that the Boers should certainly and clearly understand whst are tha intentions of the English people. For the sake of the money We should save of the dis credit we should avert to leave out of the question any charitablo feelings towards the people with whom we have fought a hard war, would it not be wise to enter into direct communication without loss of time with Botha, Do Wet, Delarey, Theron.

or any other leaders in the field, and state to them the dispositions which the Government must have already decided on for settling the country when the war is over Tha English neoDle will certainly desire that the utmost efforts should be made to pacify the country by generous and liberal methods in repairing the inevitable destruction of war. It Is important that this shall be thoroughly understood on both sides, and as soon as possible. Any one. who knows the actual position of the Boer farmer would especially desire to see the consideration, among other things, of a definite offer to provide a sum lor me burgher returned to bis farm, sufficient to start him with a roof over his head and the means of beginning work, wherever such help is made necessary by the ruin of the farm or the loss of grain or stock. Capital will in any case be wanted to restore life and activity through the country and it would no true economy to begin in this wsy rather than settle strangers on the land, as nono knowjtottor tban the Boers how to make the earth in those regions yield its crops, and South Africa will badly want those crops.

There is talk of a vast population ready to stream into the centres of industry, and for these a supply of food win be needed No one. moreover, can desire that a second ruin should fall on the land in two years' time by a general asri cultural bankrcDtcy of new men unfitted for South African farm life. As to tho sum required, a month's cost of continuing the war would make a great start. It would not be all loss savings would commence in a hundred directions savings directly attributable to a cessation of hostilities. There is no reason for England now to fear misrepre sentation of acts such as this.

She announces that the war is over, her generals are sent home, the countries definitely annexed, and English officials appointed over them. Most of the inhabitants are prisoners, and will not be returned till peace is assured. Those in the field are few in number. Even for our own sates it is evident that may without loss of dignity make proposals for the settlement of a struggle of which the nation is weary, and which has now entered on the stage of mere extermination. Cruelty is disliked by English people.

No doubt, if they wish to do it, they can destroy and annihilate the whole Boer people. England will conquer the country," an acute foreign observer from the Trans ysal said to me, but she will have taken a dead country." A great Empire, wjth the overpowering force of four hundred millions at its back, may, however, justly and with prudence, shrink from the extreme measure within its power of sheer extermination. England would surely rejoice to see the problem, till now given over to soldiers, taken up by statesmen in their turn. In her overwhelming strength the country has no need to abjure a pacific disposition, propitious to others and to itself. I remain, Sir, yours faithfully, ALICE STOPFORD GREEN.

"A PR0 B0ER AUTHORITY." vyifr high' position as an explorer of unknown countries attd deserved tae wanness praise gcopspqwav t. Tim raoceediaa thai temiiated, TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir, Mr. F. E.

Garrett pursues familiar tactics in seeking to narrow down our controversy to a single challenge, which he is quite aware that the 6,000 miles between this country and South Africa render it impossible for me to meet. Be asks me to name credible persons in South Africa who will vouch that what I have said regarding certain members of Sir A. Milner's entourage is knowledge." My reply is that I received certain explicit information from many men in oHicial and business circles the conclusion that what they told me was common knowledge was my own judgment based upon the number and variety of the sources from which the same statements came. But this question of credible persons is a purely factitious one. Mr.

Garrett knows quite well, as do most well informed South Africans, who are tho par ticular Johannesburgers to whom I refer, and I am not to be deterred from making mention of a very serious factor in the past and present situation by the fact that I am at present precluded from giving names of the undesirables and of my South African informants. Mr. Garrett's rhetorical denunciation of my statement for the sordid snggostiveness of it, ita calculated injuri ousnces, the nigh character and omce against which it is directed," is designed to make readers suppose that I had accused Sir A. Milner of submitting himself consciously to the sinister influences I describe. Not merely did say nothing to justify such an interpretation, butl.

expressly guarded myself against it by the terms of my Contemporary article. Thet unfortunate judgment of Sir A. Milner in the selection of his entourage may, however, be illustrated in a single instance, which serves also to throw some incidental light upon Mr. Garrett's journalistic methods. In his eulogy of Sir A.

Milner in the August Contemporary Mr. Garrett quotes, to support his assertion that the High Commissioner enjoyed much popularity among the Dutch, a solitary witness, wbom. be describes as a preacher of high repute in the Dutch Reformed Church," the Rev, Adrian Hof meyr. This clergyman, according to Mr. Garrett, was chosen by Sir A.

Milner to instruct him in the Dutch language, and according to his own account enjoyed opportunities of intimate acquaintance." be is quoted by Mr. Garrett assaying of the High Commissioner that bo believed him to be fair and impartial, true and honest a John Ball from top to bottom." Now who Is this witness to character? Is it possible that Mr. Garrett, writing this automn.was unaware that in the summer of last year the Ring, or committee of tho Presbytery, appointed to investigata certain serious charge of misconduct against Mr. Hofmeyr accepted hU resignation la tho following terms Th Ring eonsidera the conduct of the Rev. A.

J. L. Hofmeyr as a raiaderoeanour of as serious a nature as it BlUlt.l. I I am uecwMB io aim miiniuaa mm IcJurjoatbelBiB to hla th fsmlsbmetit detod Article 387 (of the Church Laws and Regulations) that rrrpeosioa foe the service of the Church or aa ladsanlu period." Until th facta bcam notorious, and even altarwarda, a very successful attempt was mad by the Rhodesiaa Press, both in South Africa sad In this country, to represent the Bev. Adrian Hofmeyr as a political martyr driven from hit Chorea, cn account of his strong loyalist sympathies.

Did Mr. Garrett, the editor. of a paper in Cape Town, which Mr. Hof; merr himself wrote, know nothing of all this, or must we conclude that, knowing it, he also knew that It had not reached readers of high class reviews on this side of the water, and that the Bev. A.

Hofmeyr might Still safely be described as a preacher of high repute in the Dutch formed I would further ask whether Mr. Garrett knows who gave the Rev. Adrian 'Hofmeyr the introductions which be brought with him on his recent mission to this country. One additional testimony bearing upon the financial influences which are moulding the policy of the British Government I may add. The latest publication of the Refugee Committee of the Uitlandera at Cape Town alludes to the alarm and unrest among the Citlander refugees at recent capitalistic legislation and capitalistic appointments in the and explains bow the alarm became consternation when, it became known that the representatives of the great mining Interests, who for years persuaded the Pretoria Government and officials, are now surrounding the new administration of the Transvaal." Apparently It Is common knowledge among these men, who are not irresponsible nobodies, but men whose cause is openly espoused by leading Progressives such as General Brabant, Major Crewe, the Hon.

WUmot, that the arts of ''persuasion" which were formerly directed against the Republican Government are. now transferred to the British. This, after all, la the real issue between Mr. Garrett and myaelf. I am not concerned to discuss the exact amount of the proprietorship of Dr.

Rutherfoord Harris in the Cape Timet, or to defend the veracity of the Boer Press.whlch, in my book, I have admitted to be hardly more reliable than the British Press in South Africa. Unfortunately British rress, including the most influential papers in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Kimberiey, and owned by tho little group of men who control the Rand, De Beers, and Rhodesia, had a monopoly of the public ear in this country, and Its mendacious and provocative statements were not balanced by similar statements from the other side. No individual is so well aware as Mr. Garrett of the peculiar nature of the efforts employed by that Press to drive England into this disastrous snd unprofitable war. Yours, J.
