by his own gun and neither his men
nor his dogs missed a meal. He is
the greatest hunter I ever heard of
and will live where the natives will
starve. Why two trappers w-ho have
been in the Arctic for years made the
last trip with hini, and one of them
had to quit. He is now on the Arctic
coast trading and trapping. 'It was
too strenous for me.' was what he told
me. That-is the best kind of proof;
that Steffansoon is on the square. He I
is the greatest man In that country
that the world has ever known."
Made Fast Trip.
Captain Lane made a very fast and
a very early trip. He left Hersehel
island on the 30th of September. The
25 miles to the mainland he made in
an open boat. He was accompanied
on the trip by two prospectors who
had been In the Arctic for years and
who are bound for the outside. They
came down the Old Crow and the
Porcupine rivers, hiring dogs until,
tney reacnea t ircie. rrom mere nej
got horses to bring them over to j
Chatanika, and from there he came to!
Chitfna In an auto. Captain Lane will j
leave for the outside tomorrow morn- (
Ing. He is going direct to Seattle |
where he will get another boat and a
new outfit.
The trip he made from Herschel
Island is a record one both for time
and for the earliness of the season.
His wife was waiting for him in Nome
and went to Seattle on the last boats i
from there.
A Great Man.
“I have met a lot of men in th*. j .v
Arctic, but Stefannsson is without:
doubt the greatest that I have ever}
met. He can live here where most1 $:
men would die. and is a wonder for j
traveling. He has some important i S
discoveries and believes that he will!
make others this winter. And his be-j
lief is shared by every man who j £:
knows the country and knows Stef-:
ansson.” :|':j
What He Left.
Captain Lane said that the Polar i
Bear had on board about 165 tons ;ij:
"f supplies and fuel when he turned jj:
her over to Stefansson. That is an j:j
outfit big enough to last the party for x
two years with comfort and for three
years if necessary. "Of course, they
would run short of some knieknacks. j.x
such as butter, but they have a dandy tit
outfit.” said the captain. x::
Referring to the boat. Captain _
Lane said that the Polar Bear had
probably bucked more tough ice than ;X
any boat of her size, or, in fact, any t-t;
X*
other size, that had been in the t-t
Arctic. He has had her for five years.
When he turned her over to Stefans- ;:j:
son she did not leak a drop. The boat | -t-i
had been pumped out but twice this gi
season in her forward hold, and each
time only; about two barrels of water
was pumped out, and this got through
a broken hawser plate, which could
not be mended by cement.
X;
Captain states that the boat is so g;
constructed that she can stand freez- :£
iMK m wiiiiuui uuiua^c. oicicimaoun
was well pleased with the boat and
tickled very much over the outfit. $:
Back Again.
Captain Lane knows where he can :£
get just the boat he wants to make his •$
annual trip to the Arctic and says §:
even if he cannot get it he will have
time to build before he has to start
again for the north. Captain Lane
leaves Seattle about the first of April
Jj!
and trades along the Siberian coast g
first. He cannot get past Point Bar- j|i
row until between the 25th of July
and the 5th of August. Asked how :|:j
the war had effected h$s Siberian ^
trade, the captain stated that it had jjjj
been benefited by it.
The Russian traders do not operate ^
along the coast new, and the goods ^
from Russia are not shipped to the $i:
Siberian coast. Therefore the de
niand for American goods is greater :•:!
then ever, although the demand has ^
always been good.
