Scientists Unwavering in
Support of DR.. Cooks
Claims.

Copenhagen, Oct. 5.-Any sugges-
ton that DR.. Frederick Cook may
make for a scientific investigation OF
the data of the North Pole discovery
is likely to meet with the full APPROX
al of the Royal University of Copen-
hagen. The authorities of the uni
versity, including Rector Torp, were
interviewed today regarding DR..
Cooks latest offer to submit his evil
dence simultaneously to the Danish
university and the American Geo
graphical society, provided the latter
does not announce its decision ahead
CT the Danish decision. They indi-
Gated their willingness to share the
priority of their investigation with
the American society but would
make no definite statement for fear
of embarrassing the American ,ex-
plorer.
The Danes are still unanimously
loyal to DR.. Cook and are as firmly
convinced OF the correctness of his
claims as on the day when the Roy
nj university awarded him n gold
medal. There is no question but the
Royal university would like TO be the
first to pass officially on his evidence
but II he desires the American Geo
graphical society to act simultan
eously with 1t, the Danish university
will willingly agree.

FIGHT IS 0 n
Determined Effort Will be

By United Press Wire.

Washington, Pa, Oct. 4.-The first
concerted movement i'm Pennsylvania
among members Of the United Mine
Workers Of America against the re-
election of Tom l.. Lewis to the pres
idency of the organization at the next
annual election, has been taken.
At a meeting at ellsworth yester-
day, attended by 500 representatives
Of the miners Of western Pennsyl-
vania, William Green, of Ohio, was
unanimously endorsed for the presi.
dcncy Of the national organization.
The antl-Lewis faction Of the Unit
cd Miners has been working quietly
for some time in lining up the miners
of western Pennsylvania. The mass
meeting held at Ellsworth yesterday
afternoon sounded the opening Of the
campaign Lewis opponent was
present and addressed the gathering.
A short time ago District President
Francis Feehan and National Presi-
dent Lewis engaged in a wordy war
in Pittsburg, when the delegates OF
district No. were called upon 20
consider what should be done in tho
powder question,
Feehan has been busy since that
time fixing up his political fences,
miners declare. The fight will be car-
ried on the floor and the next ma
tional convention and the Pennsyl-
Vania men expect one of the greatest
battles in the history of the nation.

yate profit. According to its charter,
the government was minority stock
holder, having only s7,OOO,00O out OF
of a total of sS5,OOO,OOO of stock.
The government had only five out
OF twenty-five directors and they
worked as one body so that the gov
ernment could be outvoted.
The old bank did business just as
any bank does today, accepting the
peoples deposits and making loans
and discounts to the public. 1t work
ed as a private organization and for
a time was successful despite frauds
in the sale of the stock which was
taken by the people, and occasional
bad management
At the beginning of Jackson's ad-
ministration its capital was about
a quarter, and its loans, circulation
and deposits one fifth of the whole
amount held and issued by all OF the
banks Of the country. Its parent Of
flee was in Philadelphia and 1t had
twenty-five branches through the
country. Its bank notes were as good
as gold in every part of the United
States and were accepted abroad
within a fraction of their value at
home according to the current rates
of exchange. Later tales began to
come to Jackson of the corrupt in
fluence the bank was exerting in
controlling elections and he came to
believe that 1t was a dangerous in
stitution. So he vetoed the proposed
extention of its charter, withdrew
from 1t all deposits of government
money, scattered them among state
and private banks of his own choos-
ing and when the panic of 1897 came
most of those banks failed and good
portion of the government funds were
lost.
In the meantime, the withdrawal OF
the government charter and funds
caused the Bank of the United
States to fail, bringing widespread
loss to the people who had funds on
deposit and who had invested in its
stock because of tibet governmen
backing it had.
Under the proposed central bank
so its advocates claim, none of these
things could occur. It's opponents
while admitting that the new banr
might possibly not go into the bust
ness of controlling elections, as wa,
charged IN the case of the old United
States bank, 1t would be well nigl
impossible to prevent it's domination
in time by the privately controlled
money interests of the coTltry, work
ing through the national banks tha

fluence with the government direc

also argued that because it would

marine picture, when two natives came
up and planted themselves just behind
him. There was nothing the artist
hated more than to be watched by
strangers over his shoulders in this
way. and pretty soon he wheeled
around on them and angrily asked
them how long they were going to
stand there.
His manner served to arouse their
spirit, and they replied brusquely that
they were going to stay as long as they
thought proper.
He insisted on knowing just low
