Poaching tiic Pole l>y Balloon Not a New Idea?Some Margin Should he Allowed for the Venturesome Trip of Prof. A11 dree?Capt. Mortensen's Theory Disproved. * Mon in scientific circles herej who have been following the do-1 volopment and progress or Ilerr Andree's balloon expedition to the North Pole, do not place the least bit of credence in the rumors being circulated n< to the fatal ending of the venturesome trip and the reported finding ofj his balloon by a whaling bark oil the north coast of Norway, says a New York special to the l'hila-i w delphia Times. Five days ago a sailing caption started abroad the news that ho had discovered a collapsed balloon floating in the' sea. A day lat"r another cs ptain,' cruising ovor the same course,I \ discovered the supposed balloon,! which turned out t<> be nothing' more than tli" carcass of a sperm' whale, which floating on the' I. .. 1 r - X1--I <1 iiivi, i;ui\ uji, (JililtJ IHC ! appearnr.co of a balloon partially' inflated. No sooner had these' report? been made than t'aptnin Mortensen, of the hark Ansgar, came into port on the White Sea with the information that when about two days' run from the' North Cape east he had sighted a balloon floating on the water and' he believed this balloon to bo the' one in which l'rofessor Androo sot sail. Taking all things into consideration. the llow of the current, the distance which \ndree'fl balloon had to travel in order to got to the point claimed, the obstructions standing in the way of a nwift passage, the probability of; the gulf stroam tukiag it in uti al-. | together different course, aiul particularly the date upon which | Captain Mortenson i1- said to have Keen the balloon, it is rather clearly disproved that the supposed balloon wud Androe's, if, iudeud, it was a balloon at all. ScientifitH hore say that in no caso could tho balloon have been that of Herr Atidrco. Captain Morten8on'8 bark was, us he! < claimed, two days' ?ail oast of >v North Cape. Taking 75 miles as <i 1 poor average day's sail would ( have made the spot where the i supposed balloon was sighted at ! least 150 miles from North Cape, or about b00 miles from where t Andree's balloon rose on Spitz- c bergen is approximately 600 miles t from North Cape, and at least t 800 miles from where Mortensen \ is said to have seen the balloon c The Captain of the Ansgar claim- 1 ed that he saw the balloon on t July Id, two days after Andrea 1 C0f OOll f- * nw non imiui opivt.oergon. in r order to have reached the point s off Norway the balloon would 8 have had to lloat in the water at the remarkable speed velocity of c twenty miles an hour, allowing j that Herr Andree and his coin- 1 panions simply rose high enough i to clear the cliffs and then itn- 1 mediately dropped into the ocean. 1 But. as all the dispatches t showed, Andree's car rose to a i an altitude of several hundred I j feet and then headed north be-j 1 fore a stiff twenty-two-mile I breeze, and was watched by those 11 left on shore until out of sight, i As it is a question of how far a;< balloon so large as 100 feet. ini.1 . 1 height can bo soon with a tele- i scope, the impossibility of its j i drifting back in two days be- (i comes even more pronounced., i Even had the airship dropped in- i to the ocean it is most natural 1 that it would have drifted into f the current and ilow of the gulf stream, which washes the Green- i land coast, and in this current!) drifted in a much different direc- I tion. Another point scientists ' make is that Mortensen, would i have at least picked up a portion I of the balloon to prove the con. j I elusion of Andree's trip, since the 11 King of Sweden had sent circulars | ] all over the northern country toj I aid in any possible way the ex- j I pcditon, and deriving all that,* would have been of scientlie value j I to the Swedish government. j' Those circumstances, together [ I with what Andree himself had.1 said before starting on his trip, ( are taken as good foundation for t the firm belief that Andree ia still J alive, though whore and under 1 what circumstances there isnoth-jt nig but speculation. I Although on every side there , i is tlie greatest concern and ap-j* prehension felt for Andree and > Ins two companions in tlieir dar- t ing trip, tliere is a great deal of !: hope that they will turn up safe, ' hiit not for several months. An- dree himself said there was a l possibility of his not being heard from lor six weeks or perhaps tin-11 til next year. He has now been 1 gone one month and several days. '1 Me declared there wa? a possi-U hilitv of his being able to make U the polo in six days, which seems jt credible, an.l to continue across 1 and make head southward and j t land himself in North America. < From Spitsbergen to tho pole is 1 almost in a due northerly direc- t tion, and upon Andree's theory (i of a steady northern current! ? carrying him across into North America, he would land some- i where near tho gold fields of the'j Yukon in P.ritish Amerca. j I: While allowing some margin | a for the venturesomeness of the V trip, thero aro no two ways of I li looking at tho pluck and detormi- p nation of Ilerr Andree and liin , <1 co-exnlorern.

The steering cear of the balloon is a somewhat recent indention, and acts upon the principle of a rudder of a ship.

Ho is unmarried, but eaves a mother behind him at Jothenburg who anxiously awaits j lews of the success or failure of! 11 ler son. j About twenty years have i 'lapsed since Ilerr Andree con- j :eived the idea of ballooning to 1 lie pole, forming at that time he impression that the trade vinds blew with regularity at :ertain seasons of the year. In 87b his first intention of getting o the pole took hold of him. Jut at that time he was a young nan and lacked the influence ind the command of financial as- < istance, without which such an jnterprise as he contemplated, .

He used a small balloon, md was fairly successful in a lumber of ascensions. The great ourney upon which he had set lis heart, however, was the trip :o the North Pole, for which he leeded about $40,000. Mr. Alfred S'oble.the dynamite inventor,who lied recently, gave 11 err Andree MS,000; King O'car of Sweden! tnd Norway added ?.>,000, and J md Baron Oscar Dickson, a .voalthy Swede, deeply interested j n ail tiiat concerns arctic expio- j ation, and whose death also late- I y recorded, contributed a like' I mm The balloon in which Andree' made his lirst ascent was 75 feet; ligb, or 07 feet Irom the cap to I the bottom of the car, and cost j Mo,0(H). It is tlii^ airship, with! modifications, which was used in iiis most recent attempt to travel to the pole. It is made of three thicknesses of silk as to the upper part, and two thicknesses as to the lower, the whole being fastened together with varnish. 1,, ..-r r .1 . .

This sleeping car goes through without change, leaving Washington every Saturday morning at 11 :15, and is accompanied by a Personal Conductor and Pullman porter, who go through. The Pullman fare for double berth is $7.00 from Washington to San Francisco. This service is especially for the convenience of the parties holding second-class tickets, though firstclass Tickets are good in the car.
