Eskimo Town Visited. Late at night a visit was made to the town of Oomanooi. There were seven triangular sealskin tents, conveniently placed on pict: uresque rocks. Gathered about these, in large numbers, were men, women and children, shivering in the midnight chill. They were odd looking specimens of humanity. In height the men averaged but five feet two"inches and the women four feet ten inches. All had broad, fat faces. heavy trunks and well rounded limbs. Their skin was slightly bronzed. Men and women had coal black hair and brown eyes. The nose was short, and the hands and feet were short but thick. A genial woman was found at every tent opening. ready to re ceive the visitors in due form. We entered and had a short chat with Mr. Bradley and the writer as passengers. each family. There was not much news to exchange. After we had gone over the list of marriages and deaths, the luck of the chase became the - topic of conversation. It was a period of monogamy. Myah had exchanged a plurality of wives for a larger team of dogs, and there was but one other man in the tribe with two wives. women were rather scarce, several marriageable men were forced to forego the advantages of married life because there were nºt enough wives for all. By mutual agreement several men had *hanged wives; in other cases women had chosen other partners, and the changes were made seemingly to the advantage of all, for no regrets were expressed. with no law, no literature and no fixed custom to fasten the matrimonial bond, these simple but intelligent people control their destinies with remarkable success. There was an average of three fat, clever children for each -family, the youngest, as a rule, resting in a pocket on the mother's back. Dwellings of the Eskimos. The tent had a raised platform, upon which all slept. The edge of this made a seat, and on each side were placed stone lamps, in which blubber was burned, with moss as a wick. Over this was a drying rack, and there was other furniture. - The dress of furs gave the Eskimos a look of savage fierce ness which their kindly faces and easy temperament did not war- rant. on board the yacht there had been busy days of barter. Furs and ivory had been gathered in heaps in exchange for guns, knives and needles. Every seaman, from cabin boy to captain, had suddenly got rich in the gamble of trade for prized blue fox skins and nar- whal tusks - The Eskimos were equally elated with their end of the bargain. For a beautiful fox skin, of less use to a native than a dºg pelt, he has secured a pocket knife that would serve him half a lifetime.

A Tragedy of the Arctic. Both had been condemned by the Eskimo law of the su of the fittest, the first,because of insufficient senses and the sec because it was under three and still on its mother's back when father passed away. They were not to participate in the strife life. But an unusual mother loved them. A few days before the previous winter the old father, anxiou provide warm bearskins for the prolonged night, had ventured al far up into the mountains. His gun went off accidentally and never returned. The executor of the brother of Manee's former husband was to her for the long night and kept famine from her door. In summer day she had been able to keep herself, but who could vide for her for the night to come. Her only resource was to s the chilled heart of her former husband, and we were performing unpleasant mission of taking her to him as wife No. 2. When we later saw Ikwa he did not thank us for the trouble had taken, but we had expected no reward. The speed of the yacht increased as the night advanced. A squali frosted the decks, and to escape the icy air we sought warm berths early. At four o'clock in the morning the gray glo separated and the warm sun poured forth a suitable wealth August rays. In a few moments the winter frost was changed summer glories. At this time we passed the ice battered and storm swept ch Cape Parry. Beyond was Whale Sound. On a sea of gold, stre with ice islands of ultramarine and alabaster, whales spouted walrus shouted. The grampus was out early for a fight. Large floº of little auks rushed over on hurried missions.

The wind was light, but the engines pulled us along at a pº just fast enough to allow us to enjoy the superb surroundings. the afternoon we were well into Inglefield Gulf, and near Ittil there was a strong head wind and enough ice about to engage the e of the lookout. We aimed here to secure Eskimo guides and with them se caribou in Olrick's Bay. While the yacht was tacking for a favoral berth in the drift off Kanga the launch was lowered and we soug to interview the Eskimos of Ittiblu. The ride was a wet one Mr. Bradley had the first important use for his raincoat, as a sh choppy sea poured icy spray over us and tumbled us about wi vigorous thumps. There were only one woman, a few children and about a scº of dogs at the place. The woman talked quickly and explained some length that her husband and others were away on a carit himself and one for his prospective bride. All of this glitter had been received in exchange for an ordinary ivory horn worth about ninety dollars. The Yacht Again Afloat. The midnight tide lifted the yacht on an even keel from her makeshift drydock on the beach, and she was pulled out into the bay and anchored for a few hours. oomanoi was but one of six villages in which the tribe had divided its two hundred and fifty people for the current season. To study the people, to further encourage the game of barter and to enjoy the rare sport of yacht |ing and hunting in man's northernmost haunts, we prepared to visit as many villages as possible. In the morning the anchor was raised and the yacht set sail to a light wind headed for more north- ern villages. It was a gray day, with a quiet sea. The speed of the yacht was not fast enough to be exciting. so Mr. Bradley suggested lowering the launch for a crack at ducks, or a chase of walrus, or a drive at anything that happened to cut the waters. The harpoon gun was taken, as it was hoped that º whºle might come our way, but the gun proved unsatisfactory and did not contribute much to our sport. We were able to run all round the yacht as she slowly sailed over Wolstenholme Sound. Ducks were secured in abundance. Seals were given chase, but they were able to escape our craft. Nearing Saunders Island a hord of walrus was seen on a pan of drift ice far ahead of the yacht. The magneto was pushed, the carburetor opened, and out we rushed after the shouting beasts. Two with splendid tusks were obtained, and two tons of meat blubber were turned over to our Eskimo allies.

American newspapers have taken up the New York Times-Peary copyright matter and the recent court decision against the publication mentioned, and here are some of the editorial opinions:- Grave ºnestion ºf Propriety. -- 1From the New York Tribune. - We incur no suspicion of jealousy or in will in saying that grave questions of pro- priety are raised by the course which com- mander Peary adopted in pledging himself in advance for a pecuniary consideration to confine within narrow limits the origina: ºº: of his efforts and possible suc- -ess. "There is much force in what counsel for |other newspapers said to the Court -on- |cerning this aspect of the case in asking Commander Peary.

Therefore, as an attempt to obtain Peary's story other than through us has been called to our attention, we deem it advisa- ble, both in fairness to you yourselves and to ourselves, to advise you to the above effect, and so avoid any misun- derstanding. “As to our relative rights, all re- Zºo Aºvoo-ºoºº wºº' -24A-Z" quirements of the copyright law have been fully complied with, and any in- at Battle Real via Car- ºne only Barrºr Hannon, N.

It is urged that Commander Peary has spent large sums out of his own pocket in pursuing for many years his quest of the North Pole. We do not know how that may be, but we do know that he has received large sums from the taxpayers of the United States during the long period in which he has been relieved of the duties of an office- or the Uni-e- States Navy: that he has been the bene- ticiary of handsome funds supplied by ºenerous individuals largely in respon- º appeals **** newspaper press of - - e country helped to make effective, and cation is as cool as anything. that eitherlºº ºvernment of the United State- cook or Peary found at the North Pole whose servant he is and on whose º Another consideration that should have he has been rºtained, has treated himº- - - - - - - decided the Times to keep out of the lawlºº" consideration in courts concerns the terms of its “Lond "we cannot believe that the government It must surely have struck or the public expected him to requite off- cºal and popular kindness by denying tº citizens all fringement on our rights will be prop- erly proceeded against. “Yours truly, “The New York Times." coming from a paper that had just shown its contempt for the copyright laws by publishing the Hºnain's copyrighted cablegram from Dr. Cook, this communi- He is the of the men were ºn their first trip into the frozen North, three were on their sºona, while two or them, seasoned ice with Peary: Laºs, have been into the arene six times the Times that the "bºn" would have toº. great lowly of his fºllow and it is sate to say will make several be produced, and it is invonceivable that knowledge ºf his pºeºs beyond the º, "Nº." tney over-one the lure an American newspaper can be proud of º ºnas succeeded in ºne moration party, besides Mr. -u-n, a document, one -- that I -, -º- is a 1- ºry, ºr nºn v.

There has been talk of having º board of scientists among whom he has been mentioned, who shai consider the claims of the two explorers. Professor Hallock said, however, that he had not heard anything definite concern- ing this matter, and that as far as he was concerned he did not think there was any basis for the report. He said that an examination of the original entries made by the two explorers would go far toward establishing their respective assertions, although he was not disposed to question the veracity of either. - OMPLETE PLANS FOR DINNER TO COOK Arctic Club Also Charters Steamboat to Meet Returning Discoverer in the Bay. Loyal friends and admirers of Dr. Fred- erick A. Cook are preparing in every way to do him honor on his arrival here next week on the Oscar II. The Executive Com- mittee of the Arctic Club of America held a meeting yesterday at which it was de- cided to make all the arrangements for the dinner to be held on September 23 at the waldorf-Astoria, from the office of the chairman, Dr. Roswell O. Stebbins, at No. 4 East Forty-third street.

Frank ter a stormy passage up the west coast of Newfoundland and through the strait of Belle Isle from Sydney, Cape Breton, ar- rived at this lonely whaling and mission settlement at noon yesterday. A squall of rain was blowing over the harbor as the Thomas steamed in, but, with glasses, it was possible to make out the mast and hull of the Roosevelt moored in the inner bay. The Thomas broke out the “North Pole" flag, the same emblem that was flying from the mizzenmast of the Roose- velt, and signalled “Congratulations.” The Rºosevelt then signalled the thanks of Commander Peary, whereupon the Thomas gave three loud blasts on her whistle. In response there came from the Roosevelt a chorus of barking and yelp- ing from the Eskimo dogs on board that echoed back from the surrounding hills. C--- -------- ---------- The Thomas drew near to the Roosevelt. The Arctic vessel looked little the worse for her second trip to the polar regions. Along the rail were gathered her famous crew, among them the redoubtable Cap- tain Robert Bartlett, who was at once recognized. Captain Bartlett invited the Thomas to lay alongside and the correspondent to come on board without delay. The cor- respondent clambered over the weather beaten buiwarks and proceeded, direct to the cabin to meet Commander Peary. The commander's greeting was no-t cordial. “This is a new recora in new- paper enterprise," he said, “and I appre- existed further west. ºne relief sºnouner ºneorge lºorup, tº anytain Robert A.

In reply ne shrugged his shoulders and said it was quite possible that an unknown -ontinent He referred to the and discovered by himself on previous trips that had not yet been explored. Asked what would be the international effect of planting the stars and Stripºs at the North Pole, commander Peary said that he had notinºd the secretary of State that he had taken possession of the polº in the name of the tºnited States and that it remained for the secretary to al-id- what that meant. He said he had left records on the ice at the pole- structor, and this was only his second trip into the polar regions. He had accom: panied Mr. Peary on the 1906 trip and had Leen very serviceable.

DR COOKDESCRIBESTHELAST STODBEFORE THEDASHTOR THE POI to serve every purpose in the enterprise. The possible combina. tion left absolutely nothing to be desired to insure success. Only good health, endurable weather and workable ice were necessary. The expenditure of a million dollars could not have placed an expedition at a better advantage. The opportunity was too good to be lost. We therefore returned to Etah to prepare for the quest. Strong efforts had been made to reach the pole from every avail- able quarter. Only the angle between Alaska and Greenland had been left untried. In our prospective venture we aimed to pierce this area of the globe. - If we failed in our main effort we wond at least make a track over a blank spot. With the resources for transportation which the Eskimos offered I hoped to carry ample supplies over Ellesmere Land and along the west coast of the game land. - There was reason to suppose that we would avoid the trouble- some pack agitated by the Greenland currents. The Eskimos were willing to trust to the game resources of this region to feed and fire the expedition en route to the land's end. Splendid Advantages offered. If their faith proved correct it offered me a series of advantages denied to every other leader of polar expeditions, for the movement would not only be supplied at the expense of the land which it ex- plored, but men and dogs would be taken to the battle ground in superb training, with their vigorous bodies nourished by wholesome fresh meat, not the nauseating laboratory stuff which is usually crowded into the unwilling stomach. - Furthermore, it afforded me a chance to test every article of equipment in actual field work, and, above all, after a hard campaign of this kind I could select with some chance of success the most likely winners for the final race over the circumpolar sea. A compact was made with the little men of the farthest north to push the venture into the boreal centre. When it was noised about at Etah that preparations were in progress to try for the pole most of the men on board the yacht volunteered to serve. Captain Bartlett, skipper of the John R. Bradley, said that he also would like to stay, but, if compelled to return, he required al least a cook and an engineer to take the yacht back to Newfoundland. The situation was eased when the Captain was told that but one man was wanted. No group of white men could possibly match the Eskimo in his own element. The willing hands of a tribe of 250 people were at my disposal. More help was not required. But a companion and a general overseer was in demand for this post. Rudolph Francke was selected, Annootok was to be the base of operations. - But there is no harbor near this village to facilitate a rapid landing of supplies, and to hasten the departure of the yacht on her homeward run everything for the polar ampaign was brought on deck while the vessel was still at anchor in Etah and below all was prepared for the expected storms of the return voyage. Starting for Annootok. - Late in the evening of September 1 the entire village of Etah was taken aboard, the anchor was tripped and soon the Bradley's bow put out on the waters of Smith Sound for Annootok. The night was cold and clear, brightened by the charm of color. The sun had just begun to dip under the northern horizon, which marks the end of the summer double days of splendor and begins the period of stºrms leading into the long night. Early in the morning we were ºchnootok. the weather was now changed. A strong wind came from the sea. With shallow water, unknown rocks and much ice drifting about no comfortable berth could be found for the yacht. If the over. loaded decks were to be cleared at all it must be done quickly. The launch and all the dories were lowered and filled. Eskimo boats were pressed into service and loaded. The boats were towed ashore. Only a few reached Annootok itself, for the wind increased and a troublesome sea made haste a matter of great importance. Things were pitched ashore anywhere on the rocks where a ſanding could be found for the boats. The splendid efficiency of the launch proved equal to the emer. --------------- mm. --~~~~~o wº -º-º-º-º- ºr--- * * * **** -- - - - cºrºzºvº ºr ººz" ºr zºº Pººr. • * * * * * * * * *-------------------------- - - ------------------ pol AP REGIONS AS THE EXPLORERS FOUND THEM WHAT MR.

Cook soon would reach the United States, prospect of the matter being submitted for consideration at an early date.

Furthermore, as men engaged for the northern venture would be away during the spring months, the best hunting season of the year, it was necessary to make provision for house needs later. There was therefore much work before us, for we had not only to prepare our equipment, but to provide for the families of the workers. In the polar cycle of the seasons there are peculiar conditions which apply to circumstances and movements.

In a graphic manner the discoverer wrote a story of Eskimo life that ºrrºr has been ercented for human interest. He told of the home life, the truncan and comedy that minole in the dreary cristence of the dwe'er" " the Arctic, and of the childlike eagerness of the natives to trade their valuable furs and irories for the simplest things of civilization. The yacht, her owner, Mr. John R. Bradley, the crplorer and his parºv were nºured in their preliminary work for the final dash. Finally, after describing the various places visited in Greenland in search ºf ºdº and information as to conditions further north, Dr. Cook wrote ºf the trip across Inglefield Gulf, past Cape Auckland and on toward Cape Robert-on. Here the discoverer closed the first part of his narrative, with Etah and Annoatok, the last points of call, looming in the fou distance. In the second instalment dr. cook described the voyage to Etah and then on to Annootok, the place of plenty, which he selected as the base for is dash to the pole. In the third instalment the erplorer describes the work of preparing his *inter quarters, closing with a graphic description of a narwhal hunt. i --- - - - --- --- - Fourth Instalment THE CONQUEST OF THE POLE.

Foolish indeed is the explorer who ignores this detail of the problem. Transport of a boat, however, offers many serious objec- |tions. Nansen introduced the kayak and most explorers since have adopted the same device. The Eskimo canoe serves the purpose very well, but to carry it for three months without hopeless destruc- tion requires an amount of energy which stamps the polar venture with failure. Selecting a Boat. Sectional boats, aluminum boats, skin floats and other devices have been tried, but to all there is the same fatal objection of im- possible transportation. It seems rather odd that the ordinary fold- ing canvas boat has not been pressed into this service. We found it to fit the situation exactly, selecting a twelve foot Eureka shaped boat with wooden frame. The slats, spreaders and floor pieces were utilized as parts of sleds. The canvas cover served as a floor cloth for our sleeping bags. Thus the boat did useful service for a hundred days and was never in evidence as a cumbersome device. When at last the craft was spread and covered, in it we carried the sled, in it we camped, in it we sought game, the meat of which took the place of exhausted supplies. Without it we, too, would not have returned. Preparation of the staple food supply is of even greater import. ance than means of locomotion. To the success of a prolonged Arctic enterprise in transit successive experience is bound to dictate a wise choice of equipment, but it does not often educate the stomach. From the published accounts of Arctic travellers it is impos. |sible to select a satisfactory menu for future explorers, and I hasten to add that perhaps our experience will be equally unsatisfactory to subsequent victims. Nor is it safe to listen to scientific advice, for the stomach is the one organ of the body which stands as the autocrat over every other human sense and passion and will not easily yield to foreign dictates. The problem differs with every man. It differs with every expedition and it is radically different with every nation. thus when De Gerlache forced Norwegian food into French stomachs he learned that there was a nationality in gastronomics.

Only a few palate surprises were carried and these will be in. dicated in the narrative of camp life. The entire winter and night were spent with busy hands, under direction of Eskimo and Caucasian ingenuity, in working out the clothing and camp comforts without which we could not invade the forbidden mystery of the polar basin. Although we did not follow closely either the routes or methods of our predecessors, we are, nevertheless, doubly indebted to them, for their experiences, including their failures, were our stepping stºnes to success. - THE FIFTH INSTALMENT OF pf.

After greetings from the Reception Committee, which will meet the steamship bearing him home, he will be escorted in state to his old home, in Bushwick avenue, Brooklyn, where he will pass under an arch erected in his honor and receive the congratula- tions of friends, neighbors and countless admirers. when the news was flashed over the city yesterday that the Oscar II., with Dr. Cook, was off Fire Island the effect was electrical telephones began ringing all over the city. The HERALD office was be- sieged with inquiries from suburbs and city points for additional particulars. For hours the wires were carrying questions and an- swers about Dr. Cook, “when will he land?” “will the ship get in to-night?" - where is Mrs. Cook?” “At what time will the Grand Republic meet the steamship?" countless inquiries like these were flying once, the telegraph offices and even at Quarantine station it was searcely possible to keep up with the questions that canne pouring in about Dr. Cook and his arrival.

The Oscar II., with Dr. Cook on board weighed anchor at Fire Island and started for Quarantine at twenty minutes past twelve o'clock this morning. Though sixty miles from the city proper, the Oscar II, was in easy wireless commu- nication with New York during the day and night. Dr. Cook was on deck almost constantly, and as sunset approached he gazed at the brilliant panorama and con- versed with newspaper men with a “Hello?” in reply to their greetings through a megaphone. Anxious to Get Aahore. “I feel anxious to get ashore,” he said to those who were grouped about him on the deck. “It seems about ten years since I left, instead of only two and a half, but I dread the ordeal of landing to-morrow. I would much prefer landing quickly and |quietly without a repetition of the scenes at Copenhagen. I hope I shall be left in peace with my family by to-morrow night at least." some New York papers were sent aboard last night containing long reports concerº- ing Mr. Peary's achievement. Dr. Cook read them carefully, then said:- ºthere is nothing new here and I shall wait until something more definite is pub- lished before saying anything further on the matter.” Aside from this short reference to Mr. Peary, Dr. Cook's expressions yesterday and last night chiefly concerned the joy of his arrival at home. It was a day of varied emotion for the explorer, and al- though he is not an emotional man his eyes gistened as he saw the beach of Fire Island, as the Oscar II. passed close in- shore and the passengers were able to dis- tinguish objects on land plainly.

Officials here are puzzled. The difficulty in obtaining truly scientific data to determine where Mr. Peary actually was when he thought he was within a stone's throw of the pole may be, they say, very great. It is pointed out that this inaccuracy in Mr. Peary's record does not mean that he did not reach the Nortin Pole later. Provided he had the sun it would be very easy for him to determine when he was practically at the pole, as he could see the sun just grazing the horizon at all times as it follows its circular orbit. But this the man who reaches the pole alone sees. In bringing back data for scientific investigation he must resort to other means, and for this reason the error in Mr. Peary's account may, it is said, involve other errors pertaining tº that part of the polar journey when the flººr claimed to have been farthes: no-un.

Helping the Advance. on the morning of March is preparations were made to divide in party. The advance must be helped over the rough ice of the pack edge. and for this purpose Koolooting wah and Inugito were sºlº tºd. The other six Eskimos prepared to return.

A half gale was blowing into Nansen Sound from the northwest, but this did not interfere with the starting of those home-going Eskimos, with abundant game for the return they required little but ammunition to supply their wants. when the word was given to start the dogs were gathered and the sleds were spanned with a jump. Soon they disappeared in the rush of driving snow. The crack of the whips and the rebound of ºneering voices was the last which we heard of the faithful savage supporters. They had followed not for pay, but for a real desire to he helpful, from the dark days of the ending of night to the bright nights of the coming double days, and their parting enforced a pang of loneliness. with a snow charged blast in our faces it was quite impossible for us to start, so we withdrew to the snow igloo, entered our bags and slept a few hours longer. At noon the horizon cleared, the wind veered to the southwest and came with an endurable force. The dogs had been doubly fed the night before; they were not to be fed again for two days. The twelve hundred pounds of freight were packed on our slºwls, and quickly we slipped around deep grooves in the great poliocrystic loºs. - The snow had been swept from the ice by the force of the preced- ing storms, and the speed attained by the dogs through even rough nº was such that it was diſticult to keep far enough ahead to get a few hours of daylight and in nºnperature was very lºw- | nº long run ºf dºlina.

Away from land it is always more difficult to find snow suitable for cutting building blocks, but here was an abundance conveniently placed.

If the ice drifted strongly to the east we might not be given the choice of working out our own return. In that event we would be carried perhaps helplessly to Greenland and must seek a return either along the east coast or the west coast. º This drift did not offer a dangerous hardship, for the musk oxen ºuld keep us alive to the west, and to the east it seemed possible tº reach Shannon Island, where the Baldwin-Ziegler expedition had ºandoned a large cache of supplies. It appeared not improbable ºlso that a large land extension might offer a safe return much ºrther west. - - Francke's Instructions. - Because of this uncertainty Francke was instructed to wait until fine 5, 1908, and if we did not return he was told t ºngwah in charge and go home, either by the whalers or by the ºnish ships to the south. - * No relief which he could offer would help us, and to wait for an indefinite time alone would have inflicted a needless hardship.

No bottle was sent adrift, nor could one drift from Frobisher Bay to Ireland, by reason of the tide.

The Snowdrop anticipated the call, no provision being made for another winter. Hudson Bay. The snow was too deep for an overland trip and in a whaleboat the crew started across Hudson's strait for Labrador, but were driven back by the gale and snow. Then, without any food supply, the natives and white men lived on such seals as they could shoot on the ice; some days it was impossible to get any. In March there was a blizzard lasting twenty days, and no one coulu get ten yards from the snow igloos. They lived during this time on seaweed accumulated for such an emergency; seal skins were fed to the starving dogs, which the natives would not kill. The flippers were cut off and boiled as food for ten.

Definite arrangement has been made for participation next Friday of Robert E. Peary's Arctic ship, the Roosevelt, in the Hudson-Fulton celebration parade. Her- bert L. Bridgman, secretary-treasurer of the Peary Arctic Club, which equipped the Peary expedition, said yesterday that there is no doubt that the Roosevelt will appear in the parade, providing the craft reaches New York city in time. At the present time the Roosevelt is on her way here. Mr. Peary has gone to his home, at South Harpswell, Me. The Roosevelt, with clear weather and no de- lays, should reach here, Mr. Bridgman said, either on Monday afternoon or Tues- day morning. Mr. Bridgman denied that the appear- ance in the parade of the yacht John R. Bradley, the ship used by Dr. Frederick A. Cook to take him into the polar regions on the trip resulti-nº in ºr Look's dis- covery of the pºle, would prevent the ap- pearance of the Roosevelt.

From the steamship strathcona, at Indian Harbor. *} by Marconi Wireless via Cape Ray, N. F. Sunday. ARRy whitxEY, of New Haven, who spent the winter the Arctic and is now on his way home on board the relie schooner Jeanie, told here to-day of his meeting with Dr. Frederick A. Cook on the ice when the latter returned from the trip in which he reached the North IPole. Mr. Whitney was the first white man Dr. Cook had seen in nearly ºfteen months and the first person outside of his two Eskimo boys he had seen during that time. Mr. Whitney declared that persona cook reached the pole. - - *I never met Dr. Cook,” he said, “before April I think that was the day, although my calendar became mixed on my sledging and hunting trip. I met him with Eskimos on ice about eight miles from Annootok, his base of supplies. - - - Surprised to See White Man. - - - - “He and his Eskimo boys had left their sledges on the ice a few miles back and were very weak, one of the boys being ill from eating old salt, meat at Cape Sabine. He was surprised to see a white man and asked who it was and what I was doing, and we walked and rode f In i lly he had no doubt that Dr. i nnootok. to º went to Etah and there he told me he had found the pole. He spent two days there and then drifted on the ice southward and was com- pelled to make his winter quarters on North Peven Island, in Jones Sound. “He showed me by charts and a map just where he had been and told me in detail of his experiences, as well as of finding new land, which he named Bradley Land. - Left His Instruments and Flag. *when he left on a sledging trip for Upernavik, South Green- and, Dr. Cook intrusted with ºne his sextant, artificial horizon finder and the flag he flew over the pole, as I told him a ship certainly would come after ine. - - “He also requested me to tell Mr. Peary that he had passed his previous mark, but not to say he had found the pole. This I did, and did not inform either Mr. Peary or any one else on the Roosevelt what Dr. Cook had told me about the success he had obtained, and, fearing no ship would come for me, I decided to return with Mr. Peary. * packed the sextant and other instruments belonging to Dr. cook and the flag which he prized so highly in my trunk. Mr. Peary then told me in a very emphatic way that I could not take anything on board his ship be- longing to Dr. Cook, and said he would say nothing more about it, but | would trust to my word of honor not to take anything. Forced to Leave all. “I was forced to unpack my trunk and pack the instruments, flag and boxes, of which I did not know the contents, in other boxes and leave them all in the rocks at Etah, where they now are. “No one on the ship saw Dr. Cook's instruments or knows any. thing about what kind they are. “On his return Dr. Cook gave me the sledge which he had used on the entire trip, and which he declared had made the longest sledg- ing trip on record. The wood had been cut from it and he told me this wood had been used for arrows. *Mr. Peary would not allow me to take this sledge on board the Roose- veit, and that also was left at Etah. “The Eskimos who accompanied Dr. Cook told Mr. Peary I had no knowledge of Dr. Cook. Dr. Cook was very fond of the Eskimos, and told me repeatedly that he could never do enough for them and at they had saved his life more than once. They were with me on a long musk ox hunt, and I know they were strong, steady young ---. - “After they had been questioned by Mr. Peary they told me in their language that they did not understand the maps they had been i York HERALD, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1909.

"I have with me a complete set of records, the greater part of which are the original ones. The instruments and data and the flag had been placed in a small case, and this in turn in one of the larger boxes. “It is evident that Mr. Whitney, real- izing the value of the instruments, had taken them from the large box and had packed them in his personal trunk and intended to bring them on the Roosevert when he was placed on his honor by Mr. Peary not to bring any of my property to the country. “There is every reason to believe that the instruments are safe where they are They are thoroughly well protected against the weather by their waterproof cases.

I prefer that yºu ask such ques. tions of scientific men.” Referring to Mr. Whitney, Dr. Coo. said he considered the young sportsman entirely unbiassed, and neither a partisan of his nor of Mr. Peary's, and that he considered his attitude as eminently fair. “He is bound by no ties to either one ºf us,” added the Doctor, “and his state. ments may be accepted as unbiassed.

The design of the sledge upon which I made the long journey over the ice was my own.” Dr. Cook denied that he was to bring any suit for slander against Mr. Peary. saying such a thing was furthest from his thoughts, and that he had merely ºn sulted an attorney concerning details ºf his contracts and private affairs.

Cook -------------------------------------------- º told of the start from Gloucester on the Bradley, of the rouage tº the polar seas and of the overhauling en route of the equipment needed for the dº tº the pole. in a graphic manner the discoverer scrote a story of Eskimº ºf that "ever has been ercelled for human interest. He told of the home life, the tragedy and comedy that minºle in the dreary eristence of the dºcellers in the Arctic, and of the childlike eagerness of the natives to trade their valuable furs and wories for the simplest things of civilization. The yacht, her owner, Mr. John R. Bradley, the erplorer and his party were pictured in their preliminary work for the final dash. Finally, after describing the various places visited in Greenland in search of guides and information as to conditions further north, Dr. Cook wrote of the trip across Inglefield Gulf, past Cape Auckland and on toward Cape Robertson. Here the discoverer closed the first part of his narrative, with Etah and Annoatok, the last points of call, looming in the icy distance. In the second instalment Dr. Cook described the voyage to Etah and then on to Annoatok, the place of plenty, which he selected as the base for his dash to the pole. In the third instalment the erplorer described the work of preparing his winter quarters, closing with a graphic description of a narwhal hunt. In the fourth instalment Dr. Cook described the approach of the long Arctic night, which caused his party at Annootok to become very active in preparing for the daeh to the pole. In the fifth instalment Dr. Cook told of the actual start on February 19, 1908, and described the equipment he took for his great final dash. In the sirth instalment the discoverer told of the first progress of his little party and the last eight of land, and his adventures on the perilous trip with the two Eskimos who went to the pole with him. In the seventh instalment Dr. Cook described how his Eskimo compan- one saved his life. Eighth Instalment THE CONQUEST OF THE POLE. By Dr. Frederick A. Cook.

The appetite was always large, but a half pound of cold withered beef and tallow changes a hungry man's thoughts effectually. The tea, an hour in making, was now ready and we rose on el- bows to take it. Under the influence of the warm drink, the fur coat with its mask of ice was removed. Next the shirt with its ring of ice about the waist comes off, giving the last sense of shivers. Pushing further into the bag, the hood was pulled over the face and we were lost to the world of ice. The warm sense of mental and physical pleasure which follows is an interesting study. The movement of others. the sting of the air, the noise of torturing winds, the blinding rays of a heatless sun, the pains of driving snows and all the bitter elements were absent. The mind, freed of the agitation of frost, wandered to home and better times under these peculiar circumstances: there comes * pleasing sense with the touch of one's own warm skin, while the companionship of the arms and legs, freed of their cumbersome furs, makes a new discovery in the art of getting next to one's self. In the Heart of a Storm. On March it blew a half gale at night, but at noon on the following day the wind eased. The bright sun and rising tempera- ture were too tempting to remain quiescent, and though the west was still darkened by threatening clouds the dogs were put to the sleds, and of they went among the wind swept hummocks. We had not gone many miles before the first rush of a storm struck us. Throwing ourselves over the sleds, we waited the passing of the icy blast. -- There was no suitable snow near to begin the erection of a and to this we hoped to take ourselves after a few moments rest. The squall soon spent its force, and in the wind which followed good progress was made without suffering severely. The temperature was A1 degrees below zero Fahrenheit and the barometer 2005. Once in moving order, the drivers required very little encourage- ment to prolong the effort to a fair day's march in suite of the weather. As the sun settled in the western gloom the wind in creased its fury and forced us into camp.

The pack had been much disturbed and considerable time and Camping at distance was lost in seeking a workable line of travel. midnight, we had only made nine miles for a day's effort. Awaking in time for observations on the morning of the 30th, the weather was found beautifully clear. The fog, which had per sistently screened the west, had vanished. and land was discovered at some distance west, extending parallel to the line of march. The observations placed us at latitude sº deg. 50 min. Longitude 95 deg. º min. - In the occasional clearing spells for several days we had seen sharply defined land clouds drifting over a lºw band ºf pearly fog. and we had expected to see land when this veil lifted. We had, how- ever, not anticipated to see so long a line of coast. The land as we saw it gave the impression of being two islands, but our observa. |tions were insufficient to warrant such an assertion. They may be islands, they may be part of a larger land extending far to the west. What was seen of the most southerly coast extends from 83 deg. 20 min, to sº deg. 51 mini, close to the 102d meridian. This land has an irregular mountainous sky line, is perhaps eighteen hundred feet high. and resembles in its upper reaches the high lands of Heiberg Island. The lower shore line was at no time visible. - From sa deg 23 minº extending to * deg. 11 minº close to the 102a meridian, the coast is quite straight. Its upper surface is flat and mostly ice capped, rising in stºp cliffs to about twelve hundred feet. the lower surface was so indistinctly seen that we were unable to detect glacial streams or ice walls. Both lands were hopelessly buried under accumulated snows. we were eager to set foot on the newly discovered coast, for we believed then as proved by later experience, that these were the earth's northermost rocks, but the pressing need for rapid ad- vances in the aim of our main mission did not permit of detours. |Resolutions were reinforced and energy was harbored to press on- ward for the pole in an air line. - - Fair Marches Made. Every observation, however, indicated an easterly drift, and a westerly course must be continuously forced to counterbalance the movement. A curtain was drawn over the land in the afternoon of March 31, and we saw no more of it.

We had passed beyond the range ºf all life. For many days we had not seen a suggestion of an- mated nature. There were no longer footprints to indicate other lie, no breath spouts escaped from the frosted bosom of the sea. | Even the sea algae of the surface waters were no longer detected. - were alone-all alone in a lifeless world, we had come to this mental blank in slow but progressive stages. As we sailed from the barren areas of the fisher folk along the outposts of civilization the complex luxury of the metropolis was lost and the brain called -or food. Beyond, in the half savage wilderness of Danish Greenland, there was the dawn of a new life of primitive delight, still further along, in the Ultima Thule of the aborigines, the sun rose over the days of prehistoric joys. Advancing beyond the haunts of man, we reached the noonday splendor of thought in times before man's crea- tion. Now, as we pushed beyond the habitat of all creatures—ever ºnward-into the sterile wastes, the sun sets. Beyond was night and hopelessness, with eager eyes we searched the dusky plains of frost, but there was no speck of life to grace the purple run of death. In this mid-polar basin the ice does not readily escape and dis- ºntangle. It is probably in motion at all times of the year, and in tº readjustment of the fields following motion and expansion there open spaces of water, and these during most months are quickº ted with new ice. Measuring the Ice. In these troubled areas we were given frequent opportunities to *asure ice thickness, and from our observations we have come to the conclusion that the ice during one year does not freeze to a depth ºf more than about ten feet. But much of the ice of the central pack reaches a depth of from twenty to twenty-five feet, and occasionally * crossed fields fifty feet thick. These invariably showed the signs of many years of surface upbuilding. It is very difficult to surmise the amount of submerged freezing after the first year, but the very uniform thickness of the Antarctic sea ice leads to the suggestion that a limit is reached in the second year, when the ice, with its cover of snow, is so thick that very little is added afterward from below. - Increase in size after that is probably in the main the result of addition to the superstructure. º the alternate melting and f - Frequent falls of snow, combined - reezing of summer, and a process milar to the upbuilding of glacial ice, are º the growth in thickness.

In the new cracks the thickness of the ice was measured. The water was examined for life. The technical details for the making and breaking of ice were studied and some attention was given to the altitude of uplifted and submerged irregularities. Atmospheric, surface water and ice temperatures were taken, the barometer was noted, the cloud formations, weather conditions and ice drifts were tabulated. There was a continuous routine of work, which does not appear here. It belongs to the specific de- tails of the history of the exploration, which will appear in the later publication of scientific data. - - This work, like the effort of the foot in the daily drive of duty. became more or less automatic, and does not at any time enter as an active part of the story. As we now run along over seemingly endless fields of ice, the physical appearances come under a careful” scrutiny. I watched daily for possible signs of dangerous * in strength, for serious disability now meant a fatal termination. A disabled man could neither continue nor return, but every ex- amination gave another reason to push human endurance to the limit ºf the strain of every fibre and cell. The hard work which fol. Howed, under an occasional burst of burning sunbeams, brought in- tense thirst. Soup a Luxury. Forcing the habit of the camel, we managed to take enough water before starting to keep sufficient liquid in the veins for the day's march, but it was difficult to await the melting of the ice at camping time. - - In two sittings—evening and morning—each took an average of three quarts of water daily. This included the tea and also the luxury of an occasional soup. There was water about everywhere - in heaps, but it was in crystals, and before the thirst could be quenched several ounces of precious fuel, which had been car- ried thousands of miles, must be used. And still this water, so ex- ºpensive and so necessary to us, ultimately became the greatest bane tº comfort. It escaped through the pores of the skin, saturated the boots, formed a band of ice under the knee and a belt of frost about the waist, while the face was nearly always encased in a mask of icicles from the breath—a necessary part of our hard lot in life, and we learned to take the torture philosophically, “From ice it comes, to ice it goes,” like the other elements of the body, when the good preacher pronounces the last words “from dust to dust.” From the eighty-seventh to the eighty-eighth parallel we passed for two days over old ice without pressure lines or hummocks. There was no discernible line of demarkation for the fields, and it was quite impossible to determine if we were on land or sea ice. The barometer indicated no elevation, but the ice had the hard, wav- ing surface of glacial ice, with only superficial crevasses. The water obtained from this was not salty, but all of the upper surface of the ice of the polar sea makes similar water. The nautical observations did not seem to indicate a drift. but nevertheless the combined tabu- lations do not warrant the positive assertion of either land or sea for this area. An Air Line Course. This ice gave a cheering prospect; a plain of purple and blue tiers of uplifted blocks. Over it a direct air line course was pos. sible. Progress, however, was quite as difficult as over the irregu. ºr pack. The snow was crusted with large crystals. An increased friction reduced the speed, while the surface, too hard for snowshoes.

It is the Peary Arctic Club on the one hand, a close corporation devoted to ad- vancing the nterests of Commander Peary and the American Geographical Society, in which he has been deeply interested, and the American Museum of Natural History, for which Mr. Peary is an official repre- sentative on the other, which are now coin- cerned in the effort to place Dr. Cook in the position of having refused to submit his data to an American tribunal. The report which Commander Peary is to prepare, according to his original an- nouncement, will be submitted first to the Peary Arctic Club, his sponsors, and by that organization transmitted to whatever learned society may wish to see it. The report of Dr. Cook will go first to the rector of the University of Copenhagen. was also too weak to give a secure footing. The loneliness, the mo- notony, the hardship of steady, unrelieved travel were now keenly felt. - It is not often that man’s horse power is put to the test as ours was. We were cºmpelled to develop a working energy to the limit of animal capacity. Day after day we had pushed along at the same steady pace over plains of frost and through a mental desert. As the eye opened at the end of an icy slumber the fire was lighted little by little, the stomach was filled with liquids and solids, mostly cold—enough to last for the day, for there could be no halt or waste of fuel for midday feeding. We next got into harness and paced off the day's pull under the lash of duty; we worked until standing became impossible—longer in light winds, shorter in strong winds, but always until the feet became numb and heavy. Then came the arduous task of building a snow house. In this the eyes, no longer able to wink, closed, but soon the empty stomach complained, and it was filled up again—not with things that pleased the palate, only hard fuel to feed the inner fires, while the ear sought the soft side of ice to dispel fatigue. No pleasure in mental recreation, nothing to arouse the soul from its icy inclosure. To eat, to sleep, to press one foot ahead of the other, was our steady vocation. Like the horse to the cart, but we had not his advantage of an agreeable climate and a comfortable stable at night. - Where Madness sits. words and pictures cannot adequately describe the maddening influence of this sameness of polar glitter, combined with bitter winds, extreme cold and an overworked body. To me there was always the inspiration of anticipation of the outcome of ultimate success, but for my young savage companions it was a torment General Thomas Hubbard, president of the Peary Arctic Club, makes the tender of Commander Peary's records to the Academy of Sciences. There exists in scientific circles no closer corporation than the Peary Arctic club. with a membership of ten or twelve men- bers, and a complete list of even these would be difficult to obtain. It was started for the purpose of exploiting Com- mander Peary, as its name denotes. Its Purpºses, as ſºunted in Commander Peary's hook, “Nearest the Pole,” “are to promote and encourage explorations of the polar regions as set forth in Lieuten- ant R. E. Peary's letter dated January 14, 1897, and to assist him in securing addi- tional information regarding the geog- raphy of the same; to collect and receive such objects of scientific interest as other- wise may be obtainable through Lieuten- expeditions of like nature; to receive, col- lect and keen on file narratives and manu- scripts relative to Arctic exploration, to preserve such records and keep such ac- counts as may be necessary for the pur- pose of the association and further to command. In its work the resuurces of mutual acquaintance and social Inter- course." The meetings of the club have been almost entirely devoted to the further- ance of the ambitions of Commander Peary. Its incorporators were Morris K. Jesup, Herbert L. Bridgman, Henry Par- sh, Anton A. Raven, John H. Flagler and Robert E. Peary. Contributions were solicited from the general public and the members of the club themselves contributed in a liberal manner. The principal backer of Mr. Peary in the club itself was the late Morris K. Jesup, and it was largely owing to him that the Roosevelt was built. On the death of Mr. Jesup, although Mr. Peary had a shºp at his disposal, he was unable to get the necessary funds until nearly a year after he had hoped to again essay the Arctic winds. - - ROOKLYN, HIS HOME, APPLAUDS DR.

THE CONQUEST OFT - - - there came a time when both mind and body wearied of the whole problem of forced resolution. The hard work of igloo building was now a thing of the past– only one had been built since leaving the pole, and in it a precious day was lost, while the atmospheric fury changed the face of the end. less expanse of desolation. The little silk tent now housed us sum. ciently from the icy airs. There were still fifty degrees of frost, but with hardened skins and insensible nerve filaments the torture was not so keenly felt. The steady diet of pemmican and tea and biscuits was now en- tirely satisfactory. We longed for enough to give a real filling sense, but the ration was slightly reduced rather than increased. The change in life from winter to summer, which should take place at about this time of the year, was in our case marked only by a change in shelter, from the snow house to the tent, and our bed was moved from the soft snow shelf of the igloo to the hard, wind swept crust. Trivialities Food for Thought. In my wakeful watches to get a peep of the sun at just the right moment I was kept awake during much of the resting period, and for pastime my eyes wandered from snorting dogs to snoring men. Dur. ing one of these idle moments there came a solution of the utility of the dog's tail, a topic with which I had been a play for several days. It is quoted here at the risk of censure, because it is a typical phase of our lives which cannot be illustrated otherwise. Seeming triviali- ties were seized upon as food for thought. Why has the dog a tail at all? The bear, the musk ox, the caribou and the hare, each in its own way succeeds very well with but a dwarfed stub. Why does nature in the dog expend its best effort in growing the finest fur over a seem- ingly useless line of tail bones? The thing is distinctive, and one could hardly ºn five of the creature without this accessory, but nature in the Arctic does not often waste energy to display beauties and temperament. This tail must have an important use, otherwise it would soon fail under the knife of frost and time. Yes! It was im- ported into the Arctic by the wolf progenitor of the dog from warmer lands, where its swing served a useful purpose in fly time. A nose made to breathe warm air requires some protection in the Far North. No animal feels this shortcoming as much as man. The dog supplied "HE canvas ºoº. - ------- - -->.co. -- ----------- the need with his tail. At the time when I made this discovery a cold wind charged with cutting crystals brushed the pack. Each dog had his back arched to the wind and his face veiled with an ef. fective curl of his tail. He was comfortably shielded from icy tor- ment by an appendage adapted to that very purpose. A Heavy Snowstorm. On May 6 we were stopped at six A. M. by the coming of the gloom of an unusual gale. The wind had been steady and strong all night, but we did not heed its threatening increase of force until too late. It came from the west, as usual, driving coarse snow with needle points. The ice about was old and hummocky, offering a dif. ficult line of march, but some shelter. In the strongest blasts we threw ourselves over the sled behind hummocks and gathered new breath to force a few miles more. Finally when no longer able to force the dogs through the blind- ing drift we sought the lee of an uplifted block of ice. Here suit- able snow was found for a snow house and a few blocks were cut and set, but the wind swept them away like chips. The tent was tried, but it could not be made to stand in the rush of the roaring tumult. In sheer despair we crept into the tent without erecting the pole. Creeping into the bags, we then allowed the flapping silk to be buried by the drifting snow. Soon the noise and discomfort of the storm were lost and we enjoyed the comfort of an icy grave. An efficient breathing hole was kept open and the wind was strong enough to sweep off the weight of a dangerous drift. A new lesson was thus learned in fighting the battle of life which was afterward useful. Several days of icy despair now followed each other in rapid succession. The wind did not rise to the full force of a storm, but it was too strong and too cold to travel. The food supply was no- ticeably decreasing. The daily advance was reduced. With such weather starvation seemed inevitable. - Camp was moved nearly every day, but ambition sank to the lowest ebb. To the atmospheric unrest was added the instability of broken ice and the depressing mystery of an unknown position. For many days no observations had been possible and our location could only be guessed at. The maddening struggle was daily forced, while the spirits were pressed to the verge of extinction. Now that the object of our trip had been accomplished much of the incentive was gone. At times it seemed as if our life's work had been accomplished, and to have Iain down for the final sleep would have been easy, but the feeble fires of the homing passion kept the eye open. At the Eighty-fourth Parallel. On May 24 the sky cleared long enough to give us a set of obser- vations. We were on the eighty-fourth parallel, near the ninety- seventh meridian. The new lands were hidden behind a low mist. The ice was much crevassed and drifted eastward. Many open spaces of water were noted in the west by patches of water sky. The pack was sufficiently active to give us considerable anxiety, though pressure lines and open water did not at the time seriously impede our progress. There remained on the sleds scarcely enough food to reach our eaches, unless we averaged fifteen miles daily. On the return from the pole to here we had only been able to make twelve miles daily. Now our strength, even under fair conditions, did not seem to be equal to more than ten miles.
