Abstract
THE head of the German Antarctic Expedition, Prof. Dr. Drygalski, has sent from Cape Town to the home authorities a number of full reports on the work which had been carried on by the expedition up to the date of their despatch. As is well known, the ship, which had been specially built for the expedition, was long overdue at Cape Town, and her protracted non-appearance gave rise to some anxiety. We give the following extracts from the official report, which will shortly appear, in order to furnish evidence of the activity of the staff, and of the reasons for the great protraction of the voyage.
