London vit Bombay, 2nd April.
All three Antarctic vessels, the Discovery, Morning, and Terranova, have arrived at Lyttelton, New Zealand.
The Morning and Terranova reached the Discovery on the 14th of February. All on board the Dis-' covery were well. The explorers continued their scientific work throughout the winter of 1903, and the spring found them all in excellent health and spirits.
They ascertained that the interior of Victoria Lind is continuous at a height of 9,000 feet above the sea. It is evidently a vast continental 3rd April.
The Discovery has achieved important geographical and other scientific results.
It was found that Wilkesland has no existence, the Discovery sailing over the region where Wilkesland is placed on the chart.
The work of extricating the Discovery was a gigantic task. They had to cut through eighteen miles of ice to reach open water.—Reuter.
