Especial DispoicL 10 The Call

NEW YORK. Sept. 11.-Letters from
Doctor Cook TO his wife in Brooklyn
will create a sensation when published
In one letter, written from Etah, the
explorer describes the terrible hard
ships of his journey, starting in Feb

hole in the ground in Ellesmere land
to Etah. The distarse. about 800 miles,
had to be covered without dogs and
with insufficient food.
The most striking part OF this letter.
however. is that which describes the
bitter ppointment, on arriving at
his base near Etah. TO find that his
cache of supplies, which had been sent
by his loyal wife had been moved by
Commander Peary.
Another letter mentions the loss of
a case of furs taken, Doctor COOK
writes. by Peary.
Cooks friends are preparing to enter
suit against Commander Peary to re-
cover the value of articles alleged to
have been taken by Peary from Cooks
supplies. Affidavits of Rudolph Francke
and Joseph G.. White have been OBJ
tanned. White was a member of the
Peary expedition far Etah, and
Francke was with Cook, but became
sick at Etah and was taken aboard
Peary's ship Roosevelt and later was
sent to New YORK on the aIflk
Francke in his affidavit says that he
was virtually a prisoner of Peary. and
that trunk containing Doctor Cooks
message and property was at Pearys
mercy and that he (Francke) was COM
PEELED TO sign certain letters praisng
Peary and apparently giving consent to
what was done.
After Peary had possession of DIR.
Cooks letters he wrote letter to Mrs.
Cook and dispatched ii by Francke. In
this letter Peary indicated his doubts
of Cook having been at places he men
toned in his letter to his wife.
Francke In his affidavit states that
when he first went aboard the Roose-
welt, scarcely able to walk, and said
that lie had been travelling with DR..
Cook, food was refused him.
Supplementary affidavits have been
made by the two men dealing more
particularly with the time when Peary
had possession of DR.. Cooks trunk.
These probably viii not be made public
until the rival claims of the explorers
are brought before some scientific
board for determination.
