Arthur Conan Doyle - Jellands Voyage

The short story is first published 1892 in the Magazine "Harper's Weekly" and later in collections like "Round the Fireplace Stories (1908)".

I've the impression, that there are two different versions of the Story:
- a more detailed one, probably the "original"
- and a shorter Version, which is published in all Story Collections.

The shorter Version starts with "Well, said our Anglo-Jap as we all drew up our chairs ..." and can be found everywhere.

I'm looking for a source of the detailed Version (and will not hesitate to publish ist as E-Pub, if I only can get it ).

Can anybody point out a source?
