The expedition which was sent out by the University of Pennsylvania to enter upon a systematic search for the sites of the cities of Babylon and Ninevah, of which Dr. Harper of Yale was a member, has been wrecked in the AEgean Sea, near the Isle of Samos. An authentic account of the disaster and of the rescue of the expedition by a Turkish brigantine has been received by Professor James of the U. of P. The accident, however, will not prevent the expedition from continuing its investigation. The party is made up of John P. Peters, Director; Dr. H. F. Harper, of Yale, and Prof. Hilprecht, U. of P., assyriologists, and Prof. J. H. Havnes, J. D. Prince and P. H. Field, of Brooklyn.
