TAIL AND TUSk TALE
DR.. Cooks Cook Says Some Skins
Disappeared from the North.

4 tamnest in a teapot has been stirred up in the
arctic clubs of this city-the Peary Arcuc Cl"p .
and the Arctic CIub-as the rsxIlt OF puoishe'
statement by Captain B. S. Osbon secretary OF the
Arctic Club and editor of the clubs Bulletin OF
Information in which he says In later Bulie-
tin we probably will be able to publish some facts
respecting DR. Cooks trip in the far north that
will s;arle world and Will be story that VIII
be a genuine surprise To those who are interested
in polar exploration
Captain Osbon when seen at the Arctic Clup
No 1872 East 2Sd street, last night, declared that
the story hinges the disposition of some lSf bIre
fox skins narwhsl tusks that he says were LEFT
by DR.. F A. Cook the Arctic explorer. in camp
at Annatok twenty miles north of Etah, West
Greenland. when he decided to push to the north On
his expedition
Dr. Cook left them in charge Of one of is men,
cook named Randolph Frank. who has just re-
turned TO New York, instructng him to remain at
Annatok Until certain date, and then Il he did
hear from him or. Cook he was to return to
the United States.
The skins Captain Osbon says. Frank told him
were collected and owned by DR. Cook and with
the proceeds from their sale he hoped either to
continue his trip return to this country.
In some mysterious manner those skins, which
are said to be valued s5.0o0 have left the Arctic
zone and said to be in the New York
custom house in packages, addressed to various
persons in this and other cities. Nobody seems
10 know who owns them. The Arctic Club mem
bers allege that they sent TO New York by
Commander Peary, who, Frank says, lent him
$50 to come back from the Arctic camp. while
those in the Peary ArcTfc Club assert that Peary
would have presumed to send DR.. Cooks
property here without his consent.
Frank is a German, Captain Osbon says. who
speaks but little English, but he declares that he
has a story to tell that will astonish both clubs
regarding the ownership of the skins and tusks-
The Erik is the ship that brought Frank from
the northern camp. and according to Captain Os-
bon Frank told him that he the packages of
skins and tusks in the Erks hold. although he
them in camp a few hours before he sailed
The Peary Club people declare they know nothing
of any skins sent by Peary, but they say If he
did send them he must have been in Comnunlca-
ton with DIR. Cook before doing SO.
