New "York. Oct. 5. The Sun bias al
ready reported the failure of Profes
sor Nathorst's expedition from Norway
to find any traces of the lost Arctic
aeronaut, Andree, and his two compan
ions, on the east coast of Greenland.
Since the news came of his ill success,
word has been received from Lieutem--ant
Andrup of the Danish navy of the
explorations he has just made along
the east coast just south of the region
Tiitprl bv Nathorst. He found no
signs that Andre had landed on any
part of that coast.
The chief importance of the news he
sends is that nothing had been heard
of Andree at Angmagsalik, in 65 d
grppa 50 min. N. Lat., the most north
ern Danish post and Eskimo setttle
rnnt on the east coast. It was well
known that if Andree had landed safe
ly in this part of Greenland he would
have made every effort to reach that
settlement. Where all his needs would
have been supplied.
Sufficiently careful investigations
have been made on both the west and
east coasts to justify the conclusion
that if the balloon party landed any
where in Greenland it would not be able
to reach a place where food was ob
tainable. There is scarcely any rea
son now to hope that any news will
ever be 'heard of the fate of these three
m -.,icS their bodies are found.
In 65 deg. N. Lat., Lieut Andrup
found traces of habitation by extinct
Eskimo tribes and secured a number of
skeletons and ethnographical objects.

London, Oct. 5. A despatch to the
Daily News from Bloemfontein ays
thalt all Burghers of the Orange Free
State have been commanded and mobil
ized in different parts of the republic.
They have been ordered to act on the
defensive and will probably be kept six
miles from the border to avoid collie

response to a summons from the queen.
ARp BOERS ADVANCING?
London, Oct. 5. The Daily Tele
graph published in its second edition
this morning a despaJtch from New
Casitle, Natal, dated yesterday, an
nouncing that the Boers' advance be
gan yesterday with a double movement
of artillery. News is contradictory.
Side by side wilth the announcement
that the Boers occupied Laings 2eck
is printed a despatch from Pretoria
saying the Transvaal government is
sued a strict injunction to command- '
ants that British territory must not De
invaded, and General Joubert issued a
proclamation threatening to snoot any
man who crossed the border.
While it is not neceeary to accept an
sensational Statements regarding the
advance of the Boers, there is not a jot
of evidence to show that the Burgners
contemplate receding.
CONTRADICTORY NEWS. f
Up to 9 o'clock this afternoon noth
ing arrived ltd confirm the despatch
from New Castle to the Daily Tele
graph announcing that a general ad
vance of the Boer forces began yester
day. The war office and the colonial
office profess enJtire ignorance.
- Another New Castle special, forward
ed later to the Telegraph, contradicts
the first and declares all is quiet on the
border and no sign of a Boer advance.
tv,q. -nan-a T-ocmirr? i n er the allesed in- "
vasion of theNatal is awaited with anx
ious interest. It id a distinctly serious
and ugly look in the statement in items
from New Cafe tie to 'the effect that

manrs. This would be absolutely a
bright for tflbreaclh af conditions supposed to gov

and if true presages scenes worse than-
