NEW WORLD ODDFELL0Ws
N SESSION At SEATTLE.
Meeting of the Sovereign Grand Lodge
Begins at Seattle.

Seattle Wash, Sept 20.-The SOW
ereign grand lodge of the Independent
Order of odd Fellows of the United
States and Canada, after being well
coined to the state and city at a
meeting in the Moore theater today,
adjourned to Odd Fellows temple and
began its session. to which only mem
bers having the grand lodge degree
are admitted. The annual report of
Acting Grand Sire W. l.. Kuykendall
showed that the membership of the
order throughout the world at the
close of 1908 was as follows: Subor
dinate membership, 1,492,47S; encamp-
ment membership, 216.225; Rebekah
lodge membership. 6O3,931: patriarchs
militant membership, 22,136. The to-
tai subordinate lodge memberships and
Sisters of Rebekah lodge, 1,SSS,376.
The total net increase throughout the
world was 93,4T5.
The grand sire recommended the
adoption of legislation that would
prevent members engaging in the ere
alton or fostering of any society
on which is based membership
wholly or mainly of any branch of
the order This legislation is de-
sired to prevent the formation of
women's organizations other than the
Rebekah branch. Tonight's events

KNOWN A YEAR AGO.
BY Members of Peary's Party That
Cook Had Found the Pole.

Sydney, Sept. 20-The tug Douglas
H. Thomas which left Battle Harbor
on Saturday morning in the company
of the Peary steamer, Roosevelt ar
rived here at daylight, and reported the
Roosevelt was travelling south under
steam at a speed of ten knots per hour
According to the statement made last
Saturday at Battle Harbor, by Will
liam Pritchard, a cabin boy, and as
sistant cook on the Roosevelt, two per-
sons knew as long as year ago last
April that Cook claimed that he had
reached the pole April 21, 1908. These
persons are Harry Whitney, at present
on the Greenland coast and himself.
They saw Cook at Annatok, Green
land, after his return from the north.
The only reference to Cook which
Whitney is known to have made dur
ing his brief sojourn aboard the Roose-
welt was a casual remark to a member
of the Peary party that he believed
Cook had reached the pole. Pritchard
kept the news more faithfully and his
statement on Saturday, was the first
intimation that he had any informa-
ton on the subject.
Pritchard explained that he kent the
news to himself because he did not
wish to be dragged into trouble. He
was asked how he knew before he
came south on the Roosevelt thare
was going to be a controversy, and he
declared that Cook had cautioned him
not to speak to anyone until he reached
civilization.
Pritchard's reticence with this i'm
portant news in his possession was a
surprise to everybody on the Roosevelt.
In the beginning Pritchard told cor
respondent that Cook had talked freely
to him at Annotok with regard to his
dash over the ice, and indicating 20
him on a map the route he followed.
Later Pritchard modified this ex-
nIaining that Cooks story was told to
whitney. and that he (Pritchard) was
present in the room. Pritchard sald
that DR.. Cook had only two Eskimos
with him at the pole The language
barrier made it impossible for Pritch-
ard to talk to these -Eskimos
John Murphy. the .boatswain on the
Roosevelt. who was on shore with
pritobard when DR.. Cook appeared -at
their station, was astonished when m
for,,,ad of Pritchard's knowledge. Muir
nbv declared Cook talked with him on
occasions about his trip on the ICE
hut nothing was said about his having
reached the pole. Murphy was curious
TO know more about Cooks presence
on the ice and later when in company
with whitney in the Muskox country,
opposite Etah. he enquired II COOK hao
reached the pole. whitney told MN he
did not know.

CLAWS WILL TELL
ALL He KNOWS
The Deposed land Office Official
Writes the President.

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 20.-L. r.
CLAWS, late chief of the Seattle field
division of the United States land
office has written a letter to Presi-
dent Taft in which he says he will
soon publish the evidence in the Cum
ningham Coal land cases.
CLAWS in the letter says" The
evidence indicated that a great syn
dicate was trying to secure a monop-
oily of this coal, in direct violation
of the law. Ultimately / felt myself
obliged to appeal to you over the
heads of my superior officers, in
order to bring about an enforcement
of the law. which in measure would
conserve these coal lands to the peo-
pie"
TT is no less my duty to make
public facts in my possession, con-
cerning which l firmly believe you
have been misled. This l shall do in
the near future with a full sense of
the seriousness of my action and
with deep respect for your great
office.

A. A. U. GAM ES.
President Announces That There Will
Be No Postponment.

New York. Sept. 19.-Commenting
upon the good natured protest OF a
number of competing amateurs that
the indoor championships of the A. A.
T., were scheduled for date that is
altogether too early. President James
f sullivan of the National organiza-
ton came out flta- footed in opposition
to those who hold the games later in
the winter.
What better time could we secure?
said the A. a. U. cZar in his own
forcible way; ninety per cent OF our
eastern athletes who must necessarily
make up a large part of our fields
will be all right on edge after the
big September meets here. If we wait
until December or January all these
men will have quit training. Many of
these would not compete when out
of training. The others would go on
off the reel and show mediocre per-
formances. / predict that the games
on October and will be one of the
finest indoor meetings that we haye
ever seen here in New York"

PEARY HURRIES SOUTH.
He Will Arrive at SYDNEY g. c. Today


Sydney, Sept. 20.-Peary will make
his entry into Sydney tomorrow. The
steamer Roosevelt anchored off st.
Paufs Island today when the explorer
found he could not reach port before
night fall. This is about sixty five
miles north Of Sydney Mrs. Peary
and her children met the commander
tonight having sailed north on the
steam yacht, Sheelah.
The news that Peary was nearing
port and would probably land late to-
day caused a general cessation of bus
mess in town. Large crowds swarmed
into the streets and to the water front
to welcome the explorer. All manner
of water craft from yachts to sail
boats. sporting their colors, moved
down the bay when three blasts from
the whistle was heard which was the
signal that the Roosevelt was ap-
preaching But the observer at Low
Point reported that he could see twen-
ty miles and could not sight the Roose-
welt and later announced that the yes
sci had anchored off st. Paufs Island.

THE STORY OF COOKS HOUSE.


Peary has given an emphatic denial
to the assertion credited to DR.. Cook
that he told the Eskimos at Annitok
that Cook was dead and consequently
would take possession OF the supplies
left there by Cook. AS nearly as can
he ascertained from members of the
ROoseVelt's crew the house built by
DR. Cook at Annatok and left in charge
of Rudolph Francke, was found unoc-
cupied, when the Roosevelt arrived.
Francke was away trying to get pas
sage home. his authority for the de-
parture being a letter he exhibited pur-
porting to be from DR.. Cook at Cape
Thomas.
Francke sought permission TO go TO
the states on the Peary auxiliary ship,
Erik This was not granted him and
he turned over an inventory OF the
supplies at Cooks house. Boatswain
Murphy was then placed in charge OF
the house and its contents. He says
he found that many packages had been
broken open and their contents parti-
ally or wholly removed. The stores
were checked and the house was taken
down and re-erected a short distance
away on higher ground.
When Cook returned to Annatok he
complained about the occupation of the
hut and its removal to its new posi-
tion. Murphy SAYS he explained the
situation fully to Cook who appeared
satisfied and it was agreed that the
house should be occupied jointly. The
boatswain said he offered to vacate i'm
mediately but as everything had been
satisfactorily explained this was not
thought necessary.

HE BREADS TODAY.
The Preparations for the Reception of
the Explorer.

New York, Sept. 20.-Though sixty
miles from the city proper the Oscar
II was in easy wireless communica-
lion with New York during the day
and night. DR. Cook was on deck al
most constantly, and as sunset ap-
preached he watched the brilliant
panorama and conversed with news
paper men through a megaphone.
I feel anxious to get ashore, he
said, but / dread the ordeal of to-
morrow l would much prefer lasd-
ing quietly without repetition of the
scenes at Copenhagen. hope l shall
be left at peace with my family by to-
morrow night at least"
Some New York papers were taken
on board this evening containing long
reports concerning Pearys achieve
ment. Cook read them carefully, then
said: There is nothing new here and
l shall wait until something more def
mite is published before saying any
thing further on the matter
Aside from his short reference to
Peary, Cooks expressions today and
tonight chiefly concerned his joy at
his arrival home. Cook sent wire
less dispatch to his wife asking her to
come down the bay tonight and join
him on board, thus avoiding the crush
at the public greeting tomorrow. Mrs.
Cook was i'll, however, and replied by
wireless that she would be unable to
come.
No one was allowed aboard the YES
sci except Anthony Fiala, the Arctic
explorer. who is a friend of Cook. He
swung himself up from the tug, held
a brief conversation with the explorer
and departed.
DR.. Cook watched with amuse-
ment the vain attempts of the report
ers to get aboard. and Cook shouted:
Glad to see you, boys" 1t was evil
dent that Cook wished to avoid a too
demonstrative reception tomorrow and
his attitude may curtail some of the
arrangements in Brooklyn which have
been tentatively made.
The Oscar II will reach quarantine
about $50 o'clock. There Mrs. Cook,
accompanied by her two children, DR..
Cooks brother, William. DR.. Roswell
o. Stebbins and ]. Knowles Hare of
the executive committee of the Arctic
Club of America will be waiting on
the tug. Cook will join his wife on
the tug and will be transferred from
there to the steamboat the Grand Re
public. which will carry a party of
friends and enthusiasts down the bay
to meet him.
More than 1000 persons will be on
the Grand Republic but the borough
Of Manhattan will not be officially
represented. Bird S. Coler, president
of the borough Of Brooklyn. will Off
cially welcome him there. The great
est reception, however, will be held in
DR.. Cooks home section of Brooklyn
at the Bushwick club at noon. Soon
after that DR.. Cook will join his fam
lily at the Waldorf Astoria.
