her towards the western extremity of this com- 
paratively smooth area. I therefore had to steam 
towards the eastern side, stop the engines, drift 
down again towards the west, and so on the whole 
day long. By this means we were enabled to keep 
our position with the least possible consumption 
of coal In the evening the gale had abated ee 
much that we ran up into Robertson Bay, while 
the sea was still too heavy near the peninsula to 
make it possible for us to land more stores. To 
utilise the valuable time as much as possible, I 
decided to steam up to the end of Robertson Bay, 
where a big, broad, magnificent glacier descends 
into a cove ‘terminating the bay. This оо 
descended at a slope of about 50° from a height of 
2,000 feet, and is crossed by numberless crevasses. 
I named this glacier Sir George Newnes Glacier, 
and the glacier between Cape Adare and this place, 
which we passed running up towards this cove, 
and which forms a kind of saddle in the ridge 
stretching from Admiralty Range down to Cape 
Adare, I named Warning Glacier, because I noticed 
that ‘before every gale Шош ine Se иша 
of snow swept over it into Robertson Bay, 
giving a timely warning of the approaching gale. 
Immediately to the westward of Sir George Newnes 
Glacier a bold cape terminates a land some 3,500 feet 
high, which I named Cape Klóvstad, after the medical 
officer on my staff, and to the westward of this land a 
broad glacier descends, which I named Sir John Murray 
Glacier, after my good friend the eminent scientist 
of the Challenger Expedition. 
At the end of Robertson Bay, Mr. Hanson,
