DENMARK WANTS
COOKS DATA FIRST
People Feel That They Are En-
titled TO the Privilege.

Copenhagen, Oct 5.-The announce
ment of DR.. Cooks willingness to re
quest the University of Copenhagen to
waive its claim to the first examination
of the records of his journey to the
North Pole, causes keen disappoint
ment, and, whatever may be the reply
of the university to the explorers re.
quest. present indications do not fore
shadow graceful acquiescence on the
part of the general public.
The rector of the university in the
course of an interview said:
mo such request has yet been re
ceived from DIR. Cook and 1t Is impos
sible to say what attitude the univer
sity will take towards the suggestion
that American and other scientific bod.
les shall first view the explorers data
The action of the university will de-
pend on the reason DR.. Cook gives"
The general public is inclined to be
annoyed at the suggestion that foreign
scientific bodies shall first see the rec
ords. The people consider the promise
to give the university here the first
opportunity of passing upon the rec
ords as nothing but justice, in view OF
the honors heaped upon the explorer
by both the university and the Danish
public and their ungrudging support
and belief in his exploits.
