BOTH REACHED POLE,
THINKS GEN. GREELY
Cooks Story Does Not Seem Improb-
able to the Veteran Explorer.

LOWELL, Mass, Oct. 9-In an in
terview in this city tonight, Gen. A.
w. Greedy, the Arctic explorer, said:
Il can see no present reason for
doubling that both Peary and Cook
succeeded in reaching the pole, or
for holding that it was impossible
for Cook to do so with such equip
ment as he claims to have had"
A Greenland clergyman named
Luswinds, who is acquainted with
Cook and Peary. has opened a cam
paign against the latter, reiterating
some old allegations as to his i'll
treatment of the Eskimos Among
other charges, he alleges that Peary
once left band Of women and chill
dren on the ice without food because
they hindered the rapid advance of
his expedition.

A post-eXposition season will be in
augurated at the laska-YukOn-Pa-
cific exposition beginning Sunday,
October II, and lasting for probably
six weeks, while exhibits are packed
and buildings are cleared out. For
at least a month the directors of the
fair promise almost as good show
so far as exhibit buildings are con-
cerned, as during the regular season.
The executive committee at a meet
ing yesterday afternoon decided on
an admission charge of 25 cents for
adults and 10 cents for children, to
go into force on the Sunday follow
ing the last day.
The elaborate exhibits of the eX-
position will require much careful
handling and considerable time to
remove. The government exhibit
particularly will take time to move,
and the directors of the fair believe
there will be many who will find
it worth while to revisit some of
these showings gathered from the
four corners of the earth before the
fair becomes only a memory.
During this post-eXpOsitiOn period
the beauty of the grounds will re-
main intact. Toward its close work
will begin in wrecking those build
ings which are not chosen for pre-
servation by the regents of the state
university, and the public can watch
the demolition of a great fair, a
sight fully as interesting as its build
ing, which attracted great crowds in
the early spring.

DENSE CROWDS
GREET W. J. BRYAN.
The Distinguished Nebraska Com
moner' is Greeted Warmly
And Noisily by Spokane
Admirers

SPOKANE, Oct. "a crowd esti-
mated at 10000 people cheered Will
diam Jennings Bryan as he entered
the reviewing stand at Riverside
and MonOre street this afternoon. Mr..
,Bryan's trip down Riverside avenue
was one cheering ovation and a
packed reviewing stand was eager
ly awaiting the Democratic champion.
The crowd was so dense in front of
the stand that his automobile was
blocked in reaching the steps to the
stand. Cheer after cheer echoed the
ItCommoner's" appearance.
Mayor n. S. Pratt introduced the
speaker. Mr. Bryans first action was
ito request the removal of hedge of
palms arranged around the speak
er's stand. Bryan talked from 1880
until 4:35, over two hours of wild
cheering, and the crowd remained
standing during the entire address.
His points were:
In thirteen years of victory the
Republican party has not stamped one
policy on this country, and in
thirteen years of defeat the Demo-
cratic party has led the Republican
party to every reform that it has un-
dertaken.'
THE whole progress of our govern
ment is for the Democratic ideal.
Within the last five years num-
Der of old world countries have TAX
en- steps toward more popular gov
ernment. The movement is univer-
sal, it is irresistable.'
Il do not expect to be a candi-
date for any office again. declared
William Jennings Bryan today. "As
to my being a possible candidate for
president of the United States in
1912, l would say that while l will
not promise any one that | will not
be a candidate under any circum-
stances, still | do not expect to be.
| hope nothing will arise to make it
necessary to be a candidate for any
office again. l expect, however, to
take an active interest in politics as
long as | live, and to take part in
the discussion of public questions"
do you believe party lines are be-
ing eliminated?"
Il think that for the last fifteen
years there has been increasing in
in the voter. l do not
believe, however, that in our lifetime
we will see but one party l see no
lsign of a drift in that direction.'

,Plar of Downtown Parade is Aban.
doned by Democratic Committee.

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 11.-W. j
Bryan, arriving Tuesday morning
Twill not be conducted on a parade
of the downtown streets. After a
conference with the exposition man
agement of the parade has been dis
pensed with by the committee of ar
rangements of which George E. Ry-
an is chairman. The committee of
Democrats decided that it would not
be unbecoming to consider the inter
ests of the exposition paramount, be-
cause there is no political significance
attaching to Mr.. Bryans visit to the
Northwest. When it was suggested
that a parade down town would mill
tate against the exposition to the eX-
tent of keeping many away whose
only desire would be to see Mr.. Bryan
the committee decided to abandon the
parade.
Mr.. Bryan, according to the pro-
gram, will deliver an address, "The
Average Man. at the ampitheater
Tuesday afternoon. Tuesday night
he will make another speech in
which he will discuss public issues to
some extent and reply to President
Taft on the question of self-govern-
ment for Alaska and other matters.

the evening crowd, the night address
will be made in the ampitheater also,

way high school and address the pu-

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 1O.-Mrs.
William Jennings Bryan will be en-
tertained by a committee of Seattle
women, of which Mrs. Alfred Battle
is chairman, during the time her hus-
band is in Seattle, guest of the AL
askaY YukonPacific Exposition. and
a committee representing both the
Democratic organizations and prom
inent Republican workers.
1t is probable Mrs. Bryan will go to
the exposition about 10 o'clock, after
an automobile parade in honor of her
husband has started from the New
Washington. A luncheon on the ex-
position grounds will be served in
honor of Mrs. Bryan.
Letters from Oregon Democratic
leaders indicate that there will be a
train load of Oregonians in the party
that will come to Seattle to take part
in the Bryan Day celebration at the
fair. Telegraphic correspondence
with Spokane enthusiasts have made
preliminary arrangements for a big
excursion from the Falls City and
surrounding towns.

HEARST FOR MAYOR
Agrees to Accept Nomination for
Mayor With Fusion Ticket Be-
hind Him

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-William r.
Hearst announced at midnight that
he would accept the nomination for
mayor as rendered at an independ-
ent mass meeting at Cooper Union
Wednesday night.
A4r. Rearst's statement outlining
the conditions upon which he will
accept is, in part, as follows:
whether I am candidate or not,
| will support the rest of the fusion
ticket nominated in opposition to
Tammany hall. When the Independ-
ence league committee withdrew
from the fusion conference it de-
clared that it still stood ready to
support a frank and honest express
sion of progressive principles and
candidates irrespective of party.
This is your opportunity to substan-
tiate that declaration. Nominate
me if you so desire with the greater
part of that fusion ticket behind me
and I will run.
''The candidates nominated on the
fusion ticket are worthy of support.
The ticket is already in the field If
we nominate another ticket both
tickets may be defeated. If we nomi-
nate the fusion ticket Tammany will
he defeated And If Tammanv is
defeated the citizens will win
Mr.. Hearst also said that he
thought his chances for election
would be better on straight indie
pendent ticket, but that he was not
considering his personal chances
alone, but rather of the city at large.

TACOMA DEFEATS
HOQUIAM, 6 TO @.
Tacoma High School Wins Hard
Fought Game OF Football at
Electric Park Saturday.

The Tacoma high school foot ball
team gave the Hoquiam team team
its first defeat of the season at Flee
trio park Saturday afternoon in one
OF the 1lercest contests ever witnessed
on Grays Harbor, the final score be-
ing Tacoma 6, Hoquiam 0
In the first half Tacoma was out
played, the Hoquiam lads showing a
better defense and offense, thus keep
ing the ball near the Tacoma goal
line for more than 20 minutes. Final
ly Tacoma punted it down the field
out of danger, where it remained un-
til the whistle.
In the second half the weight of
the visitors, together with greater
endurance gave them a well earned
victory. The contest had been
! fought hard and the Hoquam men
were weakening under the attacks of
the opponents.
! After both teams had played hard
and even, Tacoma pulled off a sue
kcessful forward pass which netted 40
lVards and placed the ball on Houui-
ANS 2O-yard line. Line plays brought
it nearer until it was within the 10
yard line. Tacoma failed to make
but very little yardage on two downs
but on the third down, lining up
quickly, no signal was given. but the
ball was quickly passed and thrown
to Larsen. TacOma's end, who was
80 yards from the line of scrim-
mage. He was within feet of the
| HOquiam line when he caught the
pigskin and ran across the line for
the only touchdown in the game.
Baymer kicked goal.

FIRE AT KAUFMAN BROS.
Overheated Electric Iron Causes Blaze
at Big Department Store early
Yesterday Morning

In passing the store of Kaufman
Bros, Heron and H street, shortly
after midnight yesterday morning,
Officer Lesnick discovered fire in
the rear or the store, and sent in an
alarm. The fire department made one
of it's quick runs, and reached the
scene in time to prevent a serious
confagration.
The fire originated in sewing
room, in the gallery in the rear OF
the store room, from an electric iron
which had been carelessly left with
the current turned on. The firemen
broke rear window and eXtinguish-
ed the blaze with the chemical appar-
atus before the fire had gained much
headway.
But for the timely discovery OF
the fire by Officer Lesnick, and the
speedy work of the firemen the en-
tire stock of the store, valued at
over $4,000 would have been de-
stroyed, and the entire building
wrecked. AS it is, the loss will not

AS the fire apparatus reached
headquarters, after eXtinguishing the
blaze at Kaufman's, an alarm was
rung from Station AZ, Hume and

discover the case of the alarm, but
without avail The alarm was sent
by telephone, the operator says, from
Hotel Washington, but the clerk
there knew nothing of it. The opera

is so far a mystery.
S. G.. Kaufman was at the store

ed at the narrow escape of the store
and said he would send the fire de-
partment a check of 800, as tok-
en- of his appreciation of their ex-
cellent work.
