erected at Cape Sheridan just above
the Roosevelt's winter position and
visible for miles. This is Is miles
from the point north Of Cape Colum-

The health of the party in general
was good, according to the statement
Of Dr.. John Goodsell, the surgeon of
the expedition. Two Eskimo children
were born and are still living.
There was an absence Of scurvy,
due chiefly to the experience Of the

and supplies necessary for the health

DEVELOPMENTS FAVOR
BOTH COOK AND PEARY.

New York, Sept. l4.-Developments
in the North Pole controversy to-day
contained arguments in favor of both
Commander Peary and DR.. Cook. The
oft-repeated charge that Peary made
use Of Cooks stores is denied by Her
bert L. Bridgman, secretary Of the
Peary Arctic club, with plausible
ground for refutation. On the other
hand. the supporters Of the Brooklyn
physician have been quick to seize
upon the intelligence that only one
Eskimo stood by the naval officers
side when he raised the American
flag at the extreme top Of the earth.
The hackers Of Commander Peary
point out that while Allen W'bitten
the boatswain of the Peary auxiliary
steamer Erick, in 1905 and 1908 de-
clares that Peary's people took DR..
Cooks stores at Etah and Annotok.
He admits that he did not know
whether or not the removal was by ar
rangement with Rudolph Francke,
Cooks steward, who has been IN
charge of the supplies.
Herbert l.. Bridgman's statement,
wired from Sydney, n. S., where ne
is awaiting the arrival Of Peary on
the Roosevelt, asserts that instead OF
appropriating his rivals stores, Peary
only ':saved" them after they had
been abandoned by Francke. Mr..
Bridgman says that Francke was pick
ed up by Pearv's men at North Star
bay. between Cape York and Etah,
while he was trying to return 10 civil
lization from the spot where Cook
had left him. Francke. says Mr..
Bridgman. said he was physically un-
lit to remain longer in the extreme
north and after Peary$ surgeon had
confirmed this statement, Francke
was given money by Peary to take him
home.
The attitude Of Cook : supporters
here after hearing that pearv lad only
one Eskimo to confirm his statement
regarding the SO hours spent at the
pole is expressed by Frederick Delen-
baugh. al explorer and officer Of the
American Geographical society. MI.
Delenbaugh is quoted to-day as tol-
lows:
1T would now seem that the pre-
ponderance Of Eskimo evidence IS IN
favor of Dr.. Cook. There evidently
was no scientist present IN either
case to verify the observations. Per-
baps two Eskimos are better than one
{Dr. Cook says two Eskimos were
with him at the pole) but | do not
know that il makes any great differ
ence.'
