try the costly burden of the Congo. The
proclamation adds that the Socialists de-
cline to swear allegiance to Albert, who.
as monarch, is bound Ito represent the
oppression of those who labor by those
who fatten on the fruits of labor"
The Belgian Episcopate to-day issued
a pastoral letter eulogizing King Leopold
as the apostle of peace and justice, the
glorifer of the Catholic faith and the
promoter of Christian civilization
through the founding and development
OF the Congo Independent State.
Princess Louise, who has begun an ac-

complications have arisen which will re-

the catafalque and paid homage to their
late sovereign. In the presence Of
Prince Albert and the officers and dig

the coffin had been borne TO the nortu-
airy chamber. while priests chanted the
'Miserere" and a procession of nuns
with bowed heads prayed for the dead.
Passing through the garden and court
way up the broad marble staircase
banked with floral pieces, and across the
great reception hall. those who had come
to the palace found themselves in a room
of state. the draperies of which were
black, with silver fringe. 1t was lighted

coffin in which the King lay was half
draped with the colors Of the old Grena-

daughters floral wreaths. It was guard

uniforms glittering with gold. with
swords a salute.
Against the walls and between the tall
palms other officers held the standards
OF the kingdom. In front of the coffin
were kneeling nuns and priests. For
three hours the stream of people passed

SAYS PERRY FAILED.
Brashedr Quotes Captain as
Stating He Missed Pole.

Pittsburs. Dec. 19-Dr. John A.
Brashear. who is a member of the Ma
tional Geogra phic Society, tonight
made public statement which he bases
upon a personal interview with Robert
z. Peary. that the explorer himself does
not claim to have been nearer than four
teen miles of the North Pole.
Upon the strength of a cable dispatch
from Copenhagen and personal inter-
views with other members of the geo
graphic society DR.. Brashear asserts
that DIR. Frederick A. Cook did not get
nearer than four hundred miles of the
pole
When DR.. Brashear was in New York
on Saturday, December II, he had a
long talk with Captain Peary.
The sudden disappearance Of DR.
Cook" said DR.. Brashear. lis accounted
for by the fact that scientists his per-
sOnal friends. told him some time ago
that his records were too faulty TO bear
out his assertions. He was not told
directly that he was taking, but the in
ference was so plain that the next day
DR.. Cook disappeared and has failed to
ANa pHtdI
When DR.. Cook was in Pittsburg, we
had a long conversation. Among the
things he informed me was that the
photograph of the flag he had taken at
the pole was faxed From evidence in
possession of the National Geographic
Society we know positively at when he
took the photograph of that flag the
sun should have been on an eight degree
slant. The flag should have cast a
shadow. The photograph fails to show
the slightest trace of d shadow.
Captain Peary informed me that he
was within fourteen miles of the pole,
and that this was his only claim, basing
his wish to claim nothing further on the
fact that there is no instrument fine
enough to tell exactly when the pole is
reached"
