COOK UNDIsTURBED.

Coming so quick upon other dra-
matte incidents of the week, Peary s
denial that Cook achieved the tri-
umph for which he had been feted and
honored in Copenhagen, had been
read here with feelings of amaze
ment and concern But Cook seems
undisturbed. He is perfectly cool and
apparently unmoved when confronted
tonight with the kilograms saying
that Peary denounced him as an i'm
poster. His demeanor has not changed
the slightest since he landed in Co.
penhagen.
Urged to Make Statement.
Cooks friends had urged him 10
the utmost to make any statement
possible for publication, but he had
said repeatedly that all he had to say
for the present was, that he possess
ed proofs that he visited the North
Pole on April 81. 1908. These proofs
would be given to the world. They
were convincing, and in due time
would be given to the world. When
II was suggested that his chances OF
proying his case might be ruined un

JOHN L. SAYS THAT
LANGFORD CAN WHIP ALL

CHICAGO. July 9.-'Stanley Ketchel
can whip Jack Johnson. and
Jeffries will v fight, and Sam Lang
ford can whip them ALL" are the best
guesses of John l.. Sullivan, who is at
the Auditorium Hotel on his way East
from Canada. He will leave for New
York Sunday.
There must have been something
wrong with the Papke-Ketchel fight
July g." he said. in discussing the fight
ing game. "Papke had no license to
go against Ketchel, who / believe can
whip good and plenty. He
has the punch, and his showing against
Jack O'Brien shows he can use 1t. With
proper care Ketchel will whip Mr.. John
son.
"Jeffries cannot get into condition to
fight Johnson. He has gone the pace,
but If he could get right he would
knock the head off the colored man.
Sam Langford can and will whip
Jack Johnson If he ever gets him into
a ring, which / seriously doubt. John
son knows 1t, and is side-stepping big
Sam. Langford Is consistent, has the
punch, knows the game, and can whip
them all right now one after the other.
kaufman is too slow-slow as a coach
horse--and the others are outclassed;
so it's up to Ketchel or Langford to
turn the trick and my bet is that either
will do IT,"
