WAS A FRIGID DEAL.
GREENLAND EXCCRSIONISTS
MAKE SERIOUS CHARGES.
The Miranda Unfit for an Arctic
Trip-Whole Affair q Money
Making Scheme.

CLEVELAND, Sept. 81. - Ex-Mayor
George O.Gardner. of this ci:y,who was
a member of the Cooke Greenland ex-
cursion party. returned today. He says
the affair was misrepresented and mis-
managed in every particular by DR..
Cooke. The Miranda had only arrived
in New York harbor with load OF
coffee from South America three days be-
fore she sailed for Greenland. and was en-
tirely unfit and unprepared to make the
trip. The captain protested vigorously
against taking the vessel north, but all
to no purpose. Continuing, Mr.. Gard
ner charged DR.. Cooke with sending out
alluring circulars when getting up the
party. which proved to be most deceiv-
ing, and that the excursion was simply
run for pecuniary benefit TO the pro-
moter.
The ex-mayor alleges that. while the
excursion started out with the intention
of remaining north two months, enough
provisions were only taken to last two
thirds of that time, and the party was
soon putOn short rationS or two meals
per day.
Twice. said Mr.. Gardner, we bought
provisions for ourselves, and as every
one knows our trip was to include every.
thing. Once DR.. Cooke brought around
an itemiZed account of his expenses in a
vain eudeav0r to secure additional CON-.
pensation for the trip. Before the
transfer of the passengers from tire
Miranda to the Rigel, DR.. Cooke told
each man that absolutely nothing bnt
what was necessary in the way of cloth.
ing would be allowed on the schooner.
In the face of this order Cooke the night
before and secretly had conferred to the
Rigel his own property. including a
stock of liquors and cigars, which he
sold to the passengers Oh the trip at a
RidiculousIy High Price.
Everything that Cooke had was saved,
while not one of the passengers or crew
saved anything of value. Cookies sole
idea from beginning to end." said Mr..
Gardner, twas profit. When We reached
port he Insisted on being the first
man off the boat. so hat he could buy
everything of value from the natives.
He bartered and haggIed. and made
money. and that is all that he did do.
II do not believe" says Mr.. Gardner,
''that Prot. WriphJ ever said that the
crew of the Miranda was drunk most of
the time. L never hOnored or respected
man more than l do Capt. Farrell.
and his men were, most of them, perfect
in their behavior. The day we struck
on the reef there was little drinking
among the tiremen. who. somehow. had
managed to get hold of some whisky.
AS to the crew, there was no drinking,
and Prof. Weight could not have meant
that there was, for he could not have
known il there had been. He was sick
most of the time" The story as related
by Mr.. Gardner shows DR.. Cooke in the
light of being merchant out for as
large profit as possible. In his greed
for money be risked lives, health and
most valuable property, and it was
nothing but good luck that saved the
party from worse than property loss.

Chronicle has the following special:
Vallejo, CAL, McCalla,
naval equipment officer at Mare Island

Robert Gore, which may cost the COM
mander a trial by court martial and
possibly his commission. The trouble
arose over the contract tor supplying
hay. The price named in the bill was
50. 10 ton. Gore went to the navy
yard to collect the bill. The contractor
informed McCalla of the object of his
visit. McCalla told Gore he was sup
plying civilians Of Vallejo with hay at
IS a ton. This Gore denied and hot words
followed, Gore informing McCalla that
he was no gentleman, and also said
something about the commanders uni.
form being shield against personal
chastisement. The commander peeled
his uniform coat and cast it upon the
floor, at the same time moving toward
the door, which he locked, and secreted
the key. These preparations were too
much for Gore. who pounded the door
and cried for help. AS no assistance
came, Gore began TO run around the
room, Overturning chairs and furniture,
while the commander gave chase. Gore
finally put his foot to the door and burst
it open, and the terrified contractor ran
for his life. Official attention will be
drawn to Cores narrative.

Canvassed the Situation.
The fact that the committee had not
organized prevented any details of the
canvass being settled, and. at the re-
quest of Gen. Becker, nearly all of the
nominees agreed to remain over for the
meeting of the committee, which will
commence at II o'clock today in Room
SO of the Globe building. All the nom-
inees were enthusiastic over the OUT
look, and anxious to commence
the work. Gen. Becker stated
that it is his intention to
visit the different congressional dis
tricts in company with the candidates
for congress. OF course he will be able
to visit only small portion of the
places at which the congressional nom!-
| nees will speak, but at many of the
meetings in the smaller places one or
more of his fellow members on the state
ticket will be present. Every one pres
ent of the candidates expressed himself
ready, willing and anxious to make an
aggressive campaign. After an ill.,
formal discussion of this character the
candidates adjourned to meet with the
| members of the committee III the Fourth
district congressional headquarters at 2
o'clock.
At the afternoon meeting each man
| present, whether candidate, committee
man or high private. was asked to tell
of the situation in his locality. These
reports were of the same tenor and to
the effect that the Democrats were
| everywhere stirring themselves and
rallying in behalf of Gen. Becker and
| the entire state ticket. Strong Iegisla-
| tive and county tickets are everywhere
being placed In the field. In
Western and Northern Minne-
sofa the reports showed that
rection of the Populists a month ago
to work harder ttan ever.
Altogether, the result of the meeting
was satisfactory to all, and will result
in harmonious action throughout the
campaign. With the exception of ex-
Mayor Ludwig, of WinOna, who was
obliged to return home last evening, all
who were present yesterday will be on
hand at today's meeting.
