PRESS OF PARIS is
ABSORBED IN CLAIMS

Paris. Sept. S.-The press Of Paris
continues TO be absorbed in the rival
claims of Dr.. Cook and Commander
Peary to the discovery Of the north
pole and there is a noticeable drift
Of opinion in the direction that DR..
Cook viii have difficulty in proving
the validity Of his claim in the face
of such an experienced explorer Ike
PeaTy.
Practically all the newspapers agree
that Dr. Cook has passed into the
BACKGROUND since Peary entered upon
the scene.
The Matin says that DR.. Cooks
lecture at Copenhagen last night fell
cOIdly upon his audience.
The Journal also agrees that DR.,
Cooks lecture has made bad i'm
preston.
Petit Parisien says the world will
acclaim Peary the real cOnqUeror Of
the pole and it publishes the lnsinua-
tfon that Cook is merely trying to
appropriate to himself the honor
which belongs 10 PeaTy.

the first expression Of opinion in any
one in a position to know the facts
Of the arctic region on which DIR.
Cooks claims are based, It contains
q direct intimatiOn that Cook never
reached the pole after all.
The dispatch from Commander
Peary was responsive to an inquiry
sent by wireless telegraph to him at
Indian HarbOr, immediately following
his first announcement. The first
message from Peary, received by the
Associated Press at 12:39 p m last
Monday, came with such startling
Suddenness that the most urgent
measures were Immediately adopted
to confirm its absolute authenticity
This was quickly done and the mes
sage traced to its source and veri-
fed.
At the same time an urgent dis
patch was Immediately sent to Com
mander PeaTy by cable TO Halifax
and thence by land wires and wire
less to Indian HarbOr asking him for
additional particulars and COrTObOra-
tive details and informing him that
"DT Cook arrived at Copenhagen
September 4, claiming to have reach
ed the pole April p, 1908"
This dispatch to Peary was sent
within lew minutes aIteT the receipt
Of Peary's first telegram announcing
his achievement ana it was evidently
the first word the explorer received
on coming within the range of civil
izatiOn that Cook had already set up
the claim of being the first discoyeTer
Of the north pole. Commander Peary s
response therefore embOdies his views
on first hearing the news that his an
nOunCement of the discovery of the
pole was disputed by Cook.
The attention of Europe and Amer
lea continues to be centeTed on the
announcement CT the two north pole
explorers. Dr. Cook leCtuTed at Co
penhagen last night, when he had
ample opportunity TO sU5stantiate his
claims, was received there without
the Indications that it was accepted
as conclusive and this view was
again reflected today In the increasing
skepticism reported from foreign
capitals

COOK WAS NERVOUS
WHILE WAITING FOR SHIP

Copenhagen, Sept. 8.-SeveTal of the
local newspapers today publish let
teTs from Greenland in which IL is
stated that d. Cook, while awaiting
the coming of the Hans Egede, was
in an extreme st2te of nervousness
and anxiety. He was DESTROYS Of re-
turning to civilization as quickly as
possible because he had heard the
report that Peary had reached the
pole and wanted his own announce
meut to be made first.
DR.. Norman NJ. Hansen, who was
with Cook for six weeks on board the
Hans Egeda. said today that the eX-
plOrer's nervousness disappeared
when he came on board the steamer.
DR.. Hansen had many opportunities Of
hearing Dr. Cooks statements, which
throughout the voyage were UNMARRIED
Asked whether reports were current
in Greenland that Dr.. Cook had not
reached the pole. Dr.. HanSan replied
no" but he explained that 1t was
easily possible for the versions Of the
trip given by the EskiEnOs to vary
and reach civilization IN a distorted
shape
Regarding the various versions Of
the story about DIT. Cook having used
Commander Peary's EskimOs and
supplies and Commander Peary hav-
ing made use Of the stores and Is
KINGS held by DR.. Cook, Dr. Hansen
could only say that DR.. Cook had in
formed him that PeaTy had used his
Cooks provisions.
DR. Cook told the Associated Press
today that he would answer no
charges on this subject until he kne"
their real nature and whence they
came. He then would be prepared to
give a complete reply.
