Another source of trouble to tho pool was re ferred to in tho Journal a fow days ago—tho ar rangement of tho Fort Ecott Road with the St. Louis & San Francisco, establishing a now line to St. Louis from all points on tho former.

FJORD AND FELL. pir. Leo Howard Narrate* III* Travel* In luoluml—A Terrible \Vlntcr-l»orll» Which Uio Jeuiiuotto Was Forced to Encounter. ■ t „ ~ (few York lltmUt. LopfnoN, Bopt. C.—l yesterday Interviewed Mr. Leo Howard, who baa Just returned from Ice land, whither bo went In the early summer at the request oMUo American Geographical So ciety, with a view of settling some disputed points In the topography of that island. Mr. Howard intended to return borne by the Spain to-duy, but at the last moment ho received a communication from Judge Daly informing him that be, together with Judge Daly and Gun. Mo- Cullum, wore appointed delegates of tbo Geo graphical Congress at Venice. He accordingly left for Paris lust nlgbt. Mr. Howard informed mo that the last winter in Iceland and Green land was unprecedentedly severe. Snob a season bud never boon known. Ho could not got men to join him In bis explorations, and was conse quently thrown ontlrelyupon bis own resources. This, I should soy. Is Mr. Loo Howard's tblrd season in Iceland, and last year tbo ponies bo left behind alt died in consequence of tbo scarci ty of food. As be Jnunieiud through Iceland be found wbolo Hocks of ptarmigan dead. He also shot a lino Polar bear weighing over 000 pounds, wblob was so weak that bad it came up to him It enuUl nut have hurt btm. I.ntcr he found an other bear dead in tbo mountains. Tbo Ksqnl tnauxfn Greenland told Mr. Howard that they bad never known snob a season. They had been forced several degrees further south In conse quence of tbo cold. There was hardly any sum mer either lu Icelander Greenland. There were snow-storms all tbo tlmoot bis stay, from Juno 0 to Aug.-7. Tbo lust was the hardest winter since ItiuO. There is In consequence so little for age that tbo Govormnontaf Iceland itself thinks that tbo burdy native ponies will nut live through the winter, nor will any cattle faro bet ter. With reference to tbo Jeannette, regarding which I put sumo questions, bo said that ho bad but Utllo hope of net surety, on account of the severity of tbo winter. U was a bad lookout for any ship wintering In tbo Arctic. Tbo Jeannette could have wintered through nny ordinary win ter, but after learning what tbo Greenlanders said bo/oarod for her, o«|K?clally taking Into ac count tbo evidence of mo Corwin. The season bud been so severe that he was nr opinion that it would bo vary Into tietoro tbo Arctic leu broke uwav to form Icebergs, oven If tho usual quan tity broke away at all. , . Mr. Howard's explorations in Iceland have re sulted In some discoveries important to science. He succeeded In climbing to the top of llcrdu field, which Swedish geologists bad tried in vain to much. Mr. Uoyton also tried for It. but gave it up. Ho bad settled tbo question us to Its be ing a volcano, having found recent lava, Vottr years ago tbo nearest natives, four days Jour ney distant, saw it smoking. Mr. Howards tmrney to the mountain was beset with much urdsbip. Tbo natives ho bad with him bad to be wuicbod constantly to prevent them letting loosetbo ponies. On reaching llerdufreld tho natives relnsod to follow him, and he had to iiiuku tho ascent alone. Some of tho elhts were so precipitous that be bud to scale them by means of ropes secured by anchors, which ho threw over tho clitfs with tho help ol kites. Ho considers this preeminently tbo volcanic region of tho world. . ~ Ho discovered threo new orators right ut tho level of tbo lava, forty tnllos north of Hecja, ••If you do not sic op a lump of Ice," said Mr. Howard, “you sit trn a blook of hoi lava. , Ho discovered some beautiful lakes, one from twenty to thirty miles long, which does not ap pear in any map. Another feat which he suc ceeded in accomplishing was to cross tbo HprcogUundo, literally “ bursting sands." which extend from tbo north to tho south of the Island. Ho traversed It from cast to west and from north to south, and found It nil boulders, evi dently of glacial origin. Ho made Interesting observations respecting tho . movements of glaciers. Mr. Howard Is of opinion Unit Iceland will before long bo depopulated. Formerly huts were found right through tbo Island. Now you cannot tlnd buis fifteen miles from tho shore, and Urn Hue Is gradually narrowing. L«« Bum mer forty Icelanders sailed In o Loltb ship for Manitoba, and there will probably botMOmoro next year. Thu Alliance when sbo called ul 100- I laud left Mr. Howard provisions. He wits lu tbo Interior at tho thoo and did not see her. —— “ Tlio Omnibus Service In Loudon* Wfumvh. , r London, Aug.

UNCLE RUFUS HATCH. , The Wall-Street Phlloaophor Develop* a Now Political Idea* Oats’* HmcMl tn Cincinnati Jingalrtr. Ilclng nt Long (leach, an enormous hotel about Hrtccii ralles from the city, yesterday, I mot Unfits Hatch, who has considerable notoriety nS an operator and broker. Ho Is n rather low-set, chunky man, with a largo, square head, eonsld -1 oroide adroitness, and, ns 1 have hoard, of bus ordinary education. He camu from tUoState of Maine, and was active In speculation in Chicago till Just before the Hobolllon, when be came to Now York City, and has figured hero for twenty years. Hatch was otto of tbo originators of n company which built five Iron steamboats to run to the beaches arfd piers along the ocean front of Now York. Ho is not now, I believe, connected with the company, and, therefore, an unprejudiced speaker. He said: ••Those ves sels probably average over fcWO.UUO apiece. Two or tbreo of thorn may possibly bo used In South ern waters during tbo winter, hut ns a general rule their work Is done boro during tbo summer. When you take out tbo rout of tbo bar, etc., tha daily expenses of those boats are only 9*l apiece, and some days they will carry 2.WW pas sengers at W coma n bond. Consequently, al though wo have had a very bad season here, very cold weather nt the son-const, and a mimlt smaller concourse of people, yet those boats have made their mark, have got the Inside oC tbo business, and arc alt ready fur years amt year* yet to come.’* Mr. Hatoh then said to me: “ I drew up yes terday, In my crufie way, some political Ideas to be printed. If you had luien along hero I would have uad you do It for mo. You see. the Presi dent of too United Hiatus has boon down on bis back and unlit to attend to bis business for sixty days. Although wo have had no President, no evil has happened to tbo country, everything has run along Just ns If we bad a President giv ing away unices, cutting ulf men's beads, unu in venting a policy. Now, I reason from that thus wo du nut want any President In this country* My notion Is that Senators and Congressmen pe riodically elected by Urn people shall have tha formation of n Cabinet taken out of their own members, and tho departments of the (invert« tnent shall bo operated by this Cabinet, and mi is general policy thuCubluet will assemble and net tle tbo point. Then I would have tbo oillecbold urs selected by tho delegations In Congress ami nominated by each delegation according to ltd itiito patronage to tho Cabinet. What patron ago did ttot belong to n State or any particular Hlnte would Ito reserved." . •• Well, suppu-e the delegations quarrel, and cannot cornu to any agreement*’* •• I do mil mean to go Into the mlnutlie,'* said Mr. Hutch, “but it seems to mu that a good deal of ournoUo and combustion eomo out of Individual ambition pursuing tho I’nwldenoy, Under my plan a Hemttur would bo content to bo n Senator utidja Uuresentatlvu a Ilcpresentatlvu, unless by their talents thov reached the Cabinet, and oven then they would ho. In u degree, ab sorbed tn tbu law-making power. I think." mid Mr. Hatch, “that the limemof the President might inset men thinking how to hotter our (iovernment. and wu mint not follow our tno nienlnry prejudices Hlmply ns to how a cluing* would help or hurt Mr. Colliding, or help or hurl Mr. lllalnu. All we want la composure ami steadiness In tho country, mid it mincing of po litical ambition. The mixes of politics are imv so great that everybody wuuu to have a baud, it." .
