EUROPE DIVIDED
ON POLE DISPUTE
Danes And Germans Support
Cook While England Halls
Peory as DisCOVUrer
}. rniled - 1.ensed speeIal VIC.

B, United Press Leased Special Wire.
NEW YORK. Sept. 9.-Cable mes
sagos received here from London, Paris,
Berlin and Copenhagen by the United
Press indicates that the rival claims OF
Cook and Peary are being made the
subject of international controversies in
Europe.
In Denmark and Germany the feeling
is entirely pro- Cook. France is remain
ing neutral and demanding proof from
both Cook and Peary, while English
scientists as a whole refuse to accept
Cooks story and hail Peary as nero.
German scientists, on the other hanu
are equally loud in denouncins feary
for his charges, and in declaring that
Cook. as the first man TO reach the pole
should receive all honor
The reasons for this geographical d.
vision of sentiment is almost clearly
apparent
DR.. Cook first landed in Denmark and
called upon two of the foremost Danlsh
explorers TO substantiate his claims
Denmark hailed him as tho real discov-
erer and refused TO allow Pearys state
ment TO shake that belief
German savants accepted Cook story
when IL was announced that Cooks rear
family name was Koch: that his iather
came from Germany and that he was
distant relative TO DIR. Koch, the great
tuberculosis expert. AS a German. Ger
many accepted his claims and hailed
him discoverer. German scientists
united in declaring that Peary acted
at the wrong time in making his
charges and declare they arc uncalled
for.
In England an entire revulsion OF
feeling is noted. English papers ane
English scientists are just as strong
a unit in declaring that Cook has nevei
been near the pole. Peary's simple
statement that he has reached the TOT
of the world has been acceptd with
out question. Thus the controvers.
about geographical locations has resolv
ed itself into a controversy Of geograph
ically different nations.

Another matter brought to the at

improvements i'm the Ninth ward. A
delegation of property owners OF that

streets in that part OF Wilmington,
calling attention to the fact that with
in a short time 100000 had been ex-

The delegation laid particular stress
on the need OF improvements to the
