THE SOUTH POLE.
TRIBUTE TO AMUNDSEN AND SCOTT By Cable—Pr'ss Association —Copyright. Received 17, 5.5 p.m. London, November 16. Lord Curzon, at the Queen's Hall, presiding at Captain Amundsen's first lecture, said that Englishmen did not grudge the Norseman his success. He was the descendant of explorers and pioneers. Our brave countryman, Captain Scott, had doubtless reached the same Pole, a ftw weeks later, and was now gathering a harvest of scientific spoil, rendering the expedition the most notable of modern times.
