COOK SHADOWED
BY DETECTIVES
Deep Conspiracy to Crush the Arctic
Explorer Will Make Interesting
Story When Revealed.

NEW YORK, Nov 9.-Announce.
emnt was made for Dr. Frederick A.
Cook that he had gone into retirement,
and it was stated that he had been
forced to this course because his enc
mies had surrounded him with paid
spies. This charge was made by
Capt. William Osbon of the Arctic
Club. He declared that DR.. Cook had
gone into seclusion for the purpose OF
preparing the records that are to be
sent to the University of Copenhagen.
Capt. Osbon said Dr. Cook was in New
York, but his whereabouts would be
kept a secret by his friends. The ac-
cusation that Or. Cooks enemies had
surrounded him with detectives was
also make by Henry Wack, the explor-
er's attorney. He refused to make
known where DR.. Cook had secluded
himself. on the ground that If he did,
Dir. Cook would again be "shadowed.'
The story Of the plot against DR..
Cook and the deep conspiracy to crush
him will make story far more inter
esting than the story of the discovery
of the pole, when 1t comes to light
said Wack.

PARIS, Nov. 9.-Fully as much

as enshrouds the crime with which the
woman is charged. At every day the
proceedings of the court grow more
mysterious. The most commonplace

Judge, jury and spectators as we'll
as the prisoner, wait breathlessly for
an answer. This idea of grave rev.
Citations impending which has per-
vaded the court room since the trial
began, have racked the nerves of ev-
eryone in connection with the case,
until when witnesses were questioned
today, the slightest incident was
enough to precipitate bitter alterca-
tion. The spectators are excited over
the change which has come over De-
Valleze, who has become reckless. He
appears to wish the whole thing was
over and he impatiently hurries wit
nesses in their testimony. He has
almost entirely given up the third de
gree methods, formerly used.

KING MANUEL
TO BE MARRIED
The Monarch Of Portugal VIII Take
the Princes Alexandra to be
His Queen.

LONDON, Nov. g. King Edwards
birthday was made the occasion for
an announcement, on what is appar-
emily good authority, that his grand
daughter. Princess Alexander, daugh-
ter of the King of Fife, is to become
the queen of King Manuel of Portu-
gal The Portuguese monarch will ar
rive in England shortly to visit the
King, and this gives color to the ru-
mors of royal romance. King Man
uel will celebrate his twentieth birth
day next Monday. There is little
doubt that an English queen will be
seated on the Portuguese throne. In
the past, rumors have associated the
name Of Manuel with that of Princess
Patricia who is alleged to have re-
fused King Alfonso owing to a re-
pugnance to the Catholic faith. Others
have intimated that the choice of his
Royal Highness would fall upon Prin-
cess Beatrice, daughter of the late
Duke of Edinburgh and a niece of
King Edward.

and italian
Wonder.

Betting is 5 to I and Gotca is in Fine
Condition for the Match Which
Takes Place This
Evening.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 9-Frank
Gotch, who is to defend his title Of
wrestling champion against Giovanni
Raicevich at the Coliseum tonight in
catch-as-catcn-can bout, completed
his training with light work on the
mat with Charles Cutler. He abandon
ed his strenuous exercise Saturday
and showed that evening when he
threw Frank Pringle easily that he
was in condition. He is down to his
normal wrestling weight and his wind
is as good as ever.
Admirers of the Italian champion
place much confidence in their man
and think he has better than fight
ing chance against the champion OF
the world. Betting on this contest,
with Gotch / to favorite, is heavier
than in the champions previous bat
ties. In addition to many wagers
being made that Raicevich will win,
considerable money is being placed In
the belief that HE will get at least one
fall on Gotch. The latter's friends
are taking all they can get on that
proposition and are laying long odds
that the champion will not let the Ital
ian come close to pinning him.
Raicevich came to Chicago for the
purpose Of meeting Gotch and says hs
thinks his chances of beating ths
worlds title holder as good as Zbys
zko's or any other man. He has train
ed with confidence and will enter tn
arena in tip top condition. He is tn
strongest man Gotch will have crap
pied with for some time.
