ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 8.—VladimirBogoraz, leader of the Siberian depart-

ment of the Jesup North Pacific expedUtion, who returned to St. Petersburg amonth ago after nearly a year and a.halfof exploration in North Siberia, was in-vited to lecture before the Imperial Gee)-graphical Society in this city last night.A large company assembled to hear him,but word came at the last moment thathe had been expelled from the city by thepolice. The cause of this action was saidto be an article published -by Bogoraz, ina local .newspaper.

Instead of Bogoraz' s lecture a letter wasread from his companion, Vladimir Jack-elson, who is still in Siberia. Jackelsonsaid that anthrometric measurements hadbeen made among the Kariaks and threeskulls obtained. Thirty phonographic cyl-inders were filled with Kariak utterancesand songs. Clay objects were found byexcavations. This is held to prove that ahigher civilization once prevailed in Kam-schatka, since the present tribes are ig-norant of pottery.

The • expedition left San .FranciscoMarch 17, 1900, for Vladivostok to gathermaterial about "the origin of the Americanraces and their affinities with Asiatictribes. InJune, 1900, Bogoraz went to theAnodyr country, and July 24 Jackelsonand his companion, Axelrad of Zurich,

\u25a0went to Gijlga. Bogoraz made a study

of the Kam6chatkan and Kariaks andthen proceeded northward nearly to Ber-ing Straits. He sledged about 10,000 vergts,His entire collection embraces 12,000 ob-jects, and a comparative grammar of thenative languages shows them to belong tothe Eskimo group. •

The game of basque ball now beingplayed four days of each week at Centra)

Park seems billed to become a fad in thiscountry. The game was recently import-

ed from Mexico, ithaving had its birth inFrance about fifteen years ago. The Span-iards, then took it up, and experts wentto South America, where itmet with great

favor. It has now been Introduced intothe United States in the belief that it willbecome popular on account of the unusualskill required by tho players in scoringthe various points to fee made under therules of the game.

A large crowd of curious spectators waspresent at the. contests yesterday. Threematches were played by the Spanish con-testants, and Inthe course of the matchessome very interesting plays were made.Even to those who do not understand thegame the spectacle of seein" men scoopup a swiftly flyingbail in an arrangementshaped like a boomerang and then sweep-ing itaway again apparently without ef-fort proved a distinct novelty. Whenevera ball was muffed by a player, or when itflew too hifeh and scraped the wire net-ting on the walls, the bell rang and theopposing players were given a point. Thoplays were fast and furious at times, andon these occasions the applause was gen-erous. That the players are experts intheir line, is incontestable.

Lovers of handball will appreciate thisbasque ball for the reason that the. gamesare quite similar. An inclosure similar tothat of a handball court, only muchlarger, is provided. The wall againstwhich the ball is thrown by the playersIs fifty feet high and, jIs called tho"front!." About 200 feet away is anotherv/all of a lesser height, which is calledthe "rebote," and against which the ballrebounds. Connecting the |walls is an-other of equal height, thus forming acourt forty feet wide, \u25a0which is paved withartificial stone. This court is called the"cancha." 'The players are disposed ac-cording to the requirements of the gamewithin the cancha, each holding "la ch|s-tera," an apparatus- formed of twigs inthe shape of a horn of plenty, open onone side. The ball is caught with clever-ness by the players in the chistera, andwith one sweep of the arm sent forthagain with lightning-like 6peed. The ballmust be caught on the fly as itreboundsfrom the frontis, or on. the first rebound.Should a player fail in accomplishing thishis opponent scores. The manipulation ofthe,ball and the rapidity with which it ispassed about among the opposing teamsfascinates spectators and frequentlyrouses them to tho- manifestation of.con?siderable enthusiasm.It is the belief of local handball men

that the new game will become popularwith the masses after it is once under-Stood. A company has been formed. tQ In-troduce the game, and the constructionof a court in Central Park necessitatedthe expenditure of $35,000.. Fifteen Span-iards who are experts at the game werebrought to this city, and they play inmatches four days of each week. Thecrowds are becoming larger dally, andwhen the beauties of the game are moregenerally realized there can be no ques-tion that the investment by the companywill become profitable.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 8.—Serious de-fects have manifested themselves in themachinery of the battleship Illinois, rowin this port, and it is more than probablethat a board of naval engineers will benamed by the department to examine herengines piece by piece. James Rowbot-tom, superintendent of machinery of theNewport News Shipbuilding and Dry-

dock Company, reached New Orleans to-day to investigate complaints which havebeen made to the department and whichhave b«en referred to the company.

On the Illinois' voyage to New Or-leans great cracks developed in the cyl-inder flanges and heads. Other defectswere located both in the starboard andport engines. It is said that the cylinderflanges are not only badly cracked, butthe cylinders themselves are defective.In the event that the board of engineers

convenes here it is believed the Il-linois will return at once to the ship-yard at Newport News, where she wasbuilt, and the defective machinery berecast.

Mr.Craig declared that by the pas-sage of a land tax the rich were forced toforfeit their monopoly on the land. Thepeople also enacted an income tax, hesaid.In describing the New Zealand Govern-

The party of engineers now in the fieldwill run a line as far as Challis, Idaho.In the spring a survey willbe run to thevicinity of Thunder Mountain, the newIdaho gold camp. This may be the stop-ping place for a time. Later the read wnibe continued toward the northwest fromthis point.

The probabilities are that if a directroute across the mountains to the Sal-mon River could not be located the mid-dle fork would be followed north to themain stream and then the course of thestream generally followed, with such dis-tance-saving variations as the countrywould permit. Itis possible that the Sal-mon would be followed to the Snake andthat stream paralleled to Lewiston.

Another route which is said to be feas-ible is to leave the course of the Salmonneafr the Buffalo Hump Mountains, strik-ing northward across the range at itsme*?: approachable point, probably nearAmerican Creek, and following thatstream and the south fork of the Ctear-water to Mount Idaho. From MountIdaho to Lewiston and thence to GrangeOty Junction, Wash., on the Spokane lineof the Oregon Railroad and NavigationCompany, that road has a survey, madeduring the Buffalo Hump excitement.This survey could be followed or a di-vergence could be made from Lewistonnorth to Moscow. The latter route, iffound practicable, gives a more direct lineto Spokane. In either event connectionwould be made with the Oregon Railroadand Navigation line and the Northern Pa-cific.

Announcement of thisgreat gift to education will be made atthe White House on Tuesday. Mr. Car-negie was here' a few days ago and tookluncheon with President Roosevelt, whendetails of the plan were fully discussed.

Mr.Carnegie has thought best to createa national board to handle this munificentbenefaction. President Roosevelt willprobably name such a board for Mr. Ciif-negie, or at least set in motion the ma-chinery which shall lead to a national or-ganization.

Mr. Carnegie is expected here to-mor-row or on Tuesday and fuller details orthis gigantic enterprise willsoon becomepublic.

Nicholas Murray Butler, who has suc-ceeded Seth Low at the head of Colum-bia College, ha3 been here for two days,a guest of President Roosevelt at theWhite House, and he has aided inperfect-ing the plans. Mr. Butler left for New-York at 4.o'clock this afternoon and be-fore going refused to give any particularsbeyond the information that an announce-ment would be made on Tuesday at theWhite House.
