denouncing every form of anything
that approaches fraud or commercial

against his brethren in the calling Of

he is supported at least in part by
other Chicago physicians.

Washington, Nov. 13.-Commander
Robert E. Peary, under the auspices Of
the National Geographic society. de-
livered in Washington last night his
first public lecture on the north pole.
He avoided all controversial points.
The lecture was illustrated with nu-
merous photographs, all except two be-
ing made on his dash to the pole.
In the audience were the British,
German and Austrian ambassadors,
many other members of the diplomatic
corps, leading scientists of the national
capital, including the members OF the
committee which passed upon the
Peary records and upon whose report
the National Geographic society
awarded him a medal, several mem
bers of congress and representatives
from administrative and social circles.

No Reference TO Cook.
8 While he avoided direct reference
to any arctic expeditions except his
own, certain references were construed
by his auditors as directed to discredit
the claims of his competitor. He laid
especial emphasis upon the peculiar
construction of his sledges as of the
only pattern that could withstand the
travel and upon his supporting parties
as maintaining an open path for his
return.
