Authoritative Statement by One of the Sick
 Mans Closest Personal Friends
ALARMING RUMORS IN CIRCULATION
One was that the Fnancier ad Died in Sudden Coll lapse-lhe Patient Is Extremely Weak-After Mid night Report Is the Effect that MT. Hartman Is Not in So Critical Condition.

Arden, N. r., Sept. S.-After a night of uncertainty it was detrmined short ly after midnight tonight that E. H. Hartman Is not in such d critical con dition as earlier reports indicated. A party of newspaper men succeeded in reaching the Hartman house and in talking with Dr. Lyle, who said em- phatically that there was no cause for alarm and that MT. Hartman had had no change for the worse.
 A glimpse of the inside of the Har- riman home seemed to bear out Dr. Lyle's statement that the financier's condition was not critical Miss Car rol Hartman and the physician were sitting on sofa. laughing over a pho- tograph, and Mrs. Hartman could be seen in an adjoining room. All three were in evening dress. and there was no sign of any other physicians about.
 Dr. Lyle said that no further in- formation concerning Mir Hartman would be given out until tomorrow, when a statement would be issued from tn: uni n Pacific offices in New York. This is the first time that any newspaper men have actually reached the Hartman home. as it is impossi- ble to pass the guards on the noun tain side.
 $ No light could be seen in the win dows of the bedroom supposed to be NIT. Harriman's. and nothing whatever could be found to indicate that a crisis in his home was at hand.

COMMENT ON EXPLORERS.
Evident That Cook and Peary Were
 in Close Proximity.

Valparaiso, Chili, Sept. 7.-The newspapers of Chili unite in praising Dr. Cook and Commander Peary for their successful Arctic explorations. Some of the papers prophecy that an American will be the first to reach the South pole.
 Hamburg, Sept. 7.-Dr. Friedrichsen, general secretary of the Hamburg Ge- graphical society, said today that the report from Commander Peary also deserved absolute credence, and that it was evident that he and Dr. Cook were in close proximity in the polar regions. When Dr. Cooks discovery was reported Dr. Friedrichsen express ed the opinion that Peary shortly would be heard from as having reached the pole Both Peary and Cook should be credited with having achieved the purpose of their expe- ditions.
 Dr. Brennecke of the German obser- vatory has accepted Commander Peary's announcement He said the reason why Peary had found no trace of Cook at the pole probably was that the masses of ice, constantly in mo- ton, had carried away the flag and metal box which Cook left there. Dr. Brennecke believes Peary's success to be due to the fact that he also started early in the season and that the weather conditions happened to be fa- yorable.

PRESIDENT TAFT DECLINES
 TO UMPIRE BALL GAME
Values His Life Too Much for Such a
 Job as That.

Boston Sept. 7.-President Taft had another one of his famous Yale days today. He became plain "Bill Taft again to many of his old classmates and college companions, but was still MT. President" to the younger set of graduates who surrounded him dur ing the Yale field day celebration at the Brookline Country club.
 The president motored in from Rev. erly this morning. leaving the summer capital promptly at 9 o'clock. He re- turned by the same route at 6.30 o'clock this evening.
 During the day he played in golf foursome with three old friends and -scEoc lmates. was the guest of honor at al outdoor luncheon on the estate of sherman l.. Whipple, adjoining the country club. got mixed up in 2 veri- table Blue football rush during the after luncheon reception, and sat through the first inning of a baseball game played by former stars of Yale's best teams
 Some of the players in the baseball game in addition to the Rev. Mir. Car ter, were Allen Hubbard 'S2, who caught the famous Yale pitcher Jumping Jack" Jones; Samuel F. FL der and Walter Badger Mir. Hubbard caught today.
 President Taft was urged to umpire the contest.
 Come on. Bill" pleaded the Rev. s. c. Bushnell. who was acting as sort of master of ceremonies.
 No, sir" replied the president. T value my life too much for such a job as that"
 The baseball game was interrupted after the first inning so that group photograph might be taken with the president in the center. While the big crowd was being posed there was much good natured chaffing. Mir FL der. who had just previously made a thrilling slide for life at second base when the ball was bounding merrily somewhere out in right field, had on an old shirt, and looked untidy but happy.
 Sam Elder" said the president, you don't look respectable"
 q don't know, Mir. President but after looking over this bunch I think size up pretty well with the rest of them retorted MT. Elder. amid a renewed outbrust of laughter.
 John Hays Hammond came in from Beverly with the president this morn ing and participated in the Yale day games.

 What promises to be the most bril- | liant banquet in the annals of the Geographic society will be held next winter, it is proposed, with two North pole discoverers-Cook and Peary- and the British explorer who pene- trated fsrthest south, Lieutenant Shackleton, as the star figures. Dr. O. H. Tittman, the head of the United States coast and geodetic so- ciety. already is on his way to Eng land bearing the informal invitation of the society to Cook and Shackleton. Peary's exploit was not known when he sailed.

GOLD MEDAL PRESENTED
 DR. COOK AT COPENHAGEN.
Explorer Lectures Before Royal Fam
 fly on His Trip to the Pole.

Copenhagen, Sept. 7.-One of the
 most remarkable results of Comman- der Peary's rivalry with Dr. Cook for the discovery of the pole is that Dr. Cooks profits from the enterprise are likely to be largely increased. He received today offers for his books and lectures at twice the figures previ- ously rendered. One American of the highest standing cabled terms almost startling and, it is believed, far be- yond any sum hitherto paid for such work. Dr. Cook is likely to accept the offer
 pr. Cooks Book to Give All Details.
 The controversy is beginning to rage warmer here. Commander Peary's statement Is unanimously accepted as true, but there is very large fol- lowing faithful to Dr. Cook. His lec- ture before the Geographical society tonight. however, added little to the information he had already given out with reference to his expedition, and he repeated the declaration of his in publication of lis book.
 Presented with Gold Medal of Dem
 mark Geographical Society.
 The king and queen, Prince and Princess George of Greece and many of the members of the royal family, to- gether with large gathering of the most prominent people in Copenhagen, this evening witnessed the presenta- ton to Dr. Cook of gold medal by the crown prince and listened to the explorers lecture afterwards. Standing in front of an immense map of the Arctic regions, which was surmount- ed by the stars and stripes. Dr. Cook outlined his progress to the North pole In introducing the explorer, the crown prince said that his reception in Greenland and at Copenhagen show ed the way the Danes appreciated his wonderful exploit. The prince then begged the honor of presenting to him the medal of the Geographical society. Dr. Cook told his story eoolly and without hesitation, but most of his statements had been given out before.

 Rumors of Alarming Nature.

Where this rumor came from. no one could say but with the dlnH- culty Of obtaining communication with the Hartman home it was given wide circulation. and had sped on the wings of the wind from the Atlantic to the Pacific before a terse denial over the telephone from pr Lyle set it at rest. But Dr. Lyle declined to add even word to his denial. and his refusal to give out any information re- garding his patients condition gave further grounds for speculation-a sit- nation that was readily seized upon by alarmists.

GREAT BRITAIN AND GERMANY
Strife Can Only Be Averted by Great Britain Making Complete Prepsra- tion-The Year 1912 Mentioned.

Winnipeg, Man, Sept. 7.-Lord Northcliffe, owner of the London Times. in an interview here today, predicted war between Germany and Greaat Britain. He said that in the Krupp gun works alone. one hundred thousand men were working night and day and on Sundays preparing for war. He said:
 Germany Rushing Preparations.
 T would make the suggestion, with all respect to the Canadians. who are investing their money and labor in constructing railroads and building grain elevators, that thev keep an eye on European affairs and begin to fig ure out why it is 'all the ship building yards in Germany are busy construct ing rapid cruisers and first class bat tleships and why it is Krupps works have increased their hands to over 100000 men, nearly the population of Winnipeg"
 Speaker Mentioned Year 1912.
 His conviction is that war can only be averted by most complete and thor ough preparation on the side of Great Britain
 Lord Northcliffe stated that some Canadians have Utopian views and think war is a crime.
 "The Germans do not think so," he continued. They have a magnificent army and the second navy in the world and they ask what these things are for.
 They are a thrifty people. They do not throw money away. They made an immense sum of money out of their last great war
 They will fight or threaten again when they think it will pay Many people say now that they will fight Great Britain in the near future and some have mentioned the year 1912"
