COOK TO PROVE CLIMB
Intrepid Explorer Declares He Will
Silence Tradueers by Second Ascent
of Mount Mckinley = Will Cost
Thousands.

Cleveland, Oct. 20.-Dr. Frederick A.
Cook, the explorer. will again brave
hardship and death by leading an expe-
dition in person to recover the records
he says he left at the summit of Mount
Mckinley. in Alaska, the highest noun
tain in America.
In an interview before leaving the
city the explorer declared his intention
of again leaving the comforts of civil
ization for the perils of the wilderness
to clear his yeracity of the sur that
has been cast upon it by the affidavit
of Edward Barrell, his guide on the trip
to the mountain.
DIR. Cook did not say when his ex-
pedition will start. He said, however,
it would require two months here in
the United States to equip the eXpe-
dition. and another three months to
reach Alaska, penetrate to the noun
tain, make the ascent and return to the
coast.
The explorer said he would begin the
preparation of the expedition next
week. having Cancelled all future lee
ture dates after this week so that he
may give his entire attention to the
work Probably the Alaskan Journey
will start in the early spring.
Are you willing to stand or fall in
your position in the north pole con-
troversy. depending upon whether your
records are found or not at the summit
of Mount Mckinley" DIR. Cook was
asked
why, no." he said, II couldn't do
that. even tho l am certain the Nc
Kinley records will be found at the
summit. But my polar records must
stand for themselves. They are proof
absolute that reached the pole''
Then what purpose Is your second
ascent OF Mount Mckinley going to
serve?"
DR.. Cook, who had been reclining at
ease, was instantly alert.
"A malicious attack has been made
upon my veracity," he said. THE
journey to Mount Mckinley will silence
this attack forever.
This expedition Is one OF two things
must do now" he continued, after a
moments silence.
| And the other?"
"The instruments left at Etah of
course. I've got to prepare an expedi-
tion to collect them; another for Mount
Mckinley
What effect will Anthony Fiala's
refusal to accompany your Mount Nc
Kinley expedition have?"
MIR. Fiala might have taken off my
hands the work of preparing the expe-
dition," he replied. Now I must at :
tend to that work myself. 1 needed the
time to get my polar observations into
shape for the scientific Investigations
But Mr. Fiala's refusal won't stop the
4 expedition. On the contrary. the equip
ping will be done in as short a time az
| if he had taken up the work himself.
What will the expedition be like?'
Numerically strong enough to as
sure the ascent of Mount Mckinley"
What does this exploration mean ir
the way of money!"
TT will cost between $4,000 ant
! $4,000 to make the ascent" he an
swered
"Hardships

into angles as his jaw set. He waited
i an instant before speaking.

Washington, Oct. 19-secretay Will
son will probably save the United
States from a tariff war with France.
He has discovered in the pure food law
a weapon to bring the French to time.
French wines, and especially cham
pagnes, are especially liable to attack
for adulteration and misbranding. It is
proposed by the right application OF
this law to give the French a taste of
the retaliation for which the United
States is equipped in case they per-

ucts, and especially meats. Plans are
ready for prosecution Of the warfare
and it is believed the French govern
ment will make prompt concessions IN
the hope of avoiding such trouble.
