Letter from Fram, Bound for Arctic,
Reports Changed Plans.
CHRISTIANIA, Oct. 2.—According to a letter received here from Capt. Roald Amundsen, on board the Fram at Madeira, Amundsen has decided to proceed on an antarctic expedition. He promises to send details when he arrives -at Punta Arenas. This change in plans has occasioned surprise, as it was the original intention of Amundsen to start early next year on a drifting voyage for the north pole.
The Fram was first to go to San Francisco, where it was to be fitted out, and it was calculated that the drift through the polar ice would occupy not less than seven years.
