DR.. Cook Gives to Bradley
One-Half Credit of Exploit

NEW YORK. September 7.-While the
world has been acclaiming DR.. Frederick
A. Cook and cablegrams have been fash
ing back and forth between the ddscov-
erer Of the north pole and the rulers Of
the earth, John r. Bradley, who made
DR.. Cooks success possible. had not re-
ceived word from him, but Mr.. Brad
ley kept his own counsel and made no
complaint.
His patience was rewarded and DR..

of last Friday:

While no definite plans have been COM

would be comprehensive and fitting to
the explorers great achievement.
Peary probably will meet the members

NEW YORK, September 7.-While Com
mander Peary, on board his arctic ex-
ploration steamer Roosevelt, is on his way
from Indian Harbor, Labrador. to Cha
teau Bay. on the straits Of Belle Isle, the
world awaits anxiously for the details
OF his successful trip to the north pole,
Of which he gave information In brief
but stirring messages yesterday from In
dian Harbor.
Chateau Bay Is the nearest point to
Indian Harbor where Commander Peary
can reach a telegraph line by which to
tell the world the story of his dash to
the pole. The Roosevelt was due at
Chateau Bay this afternoon. barring acct
When Commander Peary reaches there
he probably will send confirmation of his
first message, giving the results OF hts
trip and tell for the first time how he
achieved the goal that has been his am
bition for so many years.
Indian Harbor is connected with the
rest of the world only by wireless tele-
graph, and q fun story of the trip could
hardly be expected from that distant sta,
ton. The number of messages received
frcm that station. both from Commander
Peary ana from his companions on his
arctic voyage, show that every effort
was made to inform eager friends and as
sociates Of their success.
Messages From Feary.
The latest word to come across the gap
spanned by the wireless from Indian Har-
Dor to Cape Ray, N. F.. was received to-
dag by Gen. Thomas Hubbard, president
of the Peary Arctic Club. The message
from Commander Peary was as follows:
INDIAN HARBOR.
"Via Cane Ray, September 9.
Thanks your assistance. The 300 years
search of north pole is ended. Pole occu-
pied by clubs expedition April q. Roose-

Whitney Dispatch Forwarded
by Peary From Indian Harhor

Special Dispatch to The STAR
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, September T.
Harry Whitney. the arctic explorer, has
sent the following telegram to A. Burdett
Hughes Of this city:
/ INDIAN HARBoR,
Via Cape Ray. N. F., September G.
Hard winter. Leaving Roosevelt north
Greenland, going after bear. Meet Roose-
welt on return New York. Have all things
sent to New Haven. Captain understands.
See you October.
HARRY WHITNEY,,
Whitney is wealthy New Haven man
who went north with Peary and was
mentioned last week in the story of DR..
Cook as the first white person he met
after he had discovered the north pole.
and had begun his southern journey.
Whitney left here with Peary July 6,
1908. When he left Peary is not known
A letter was received from him by Louis
Metzger of this city, friend, several
weeks ago. which stated that he planned
to leave the Peary expedition and hunt
bears in Greenland during the winter.
1t Is evident that this telegram was
transmitted for Whitney by Commander
Peary from Indian Harbor.
Yale scientists who are interested In
the part Whitney is playing In the ex-
plorations Of Peary and Cook have ex-
pected him to corroborate the story told
by DR.. Cook. or to disprove it. The fact
that Whitney was member Of the Peary
party, it is calculated here, would make
him critical auditor of Cooks story.

for the fight, encountered only with the
barest necessities. determined to make q
life and death struggle for one thing only
the goal.
but the world will ask that science,
thought not directly interested and served
shall verify the claim and shall attest the
result.
"And, therefore. DR.. Cook will doubt
less be only too willing to offer the data
upon which the confirmation Of narrative
will rest. Records, diaries, notebooks, To-
cations, courses and all indicia so well
known to explorers will be produced ano
placed with the archives. either in orig
inaI or In duplicate, Of the principal geo.
graphic societies of the world.
Had he by any possibility opened any
Of Peary's cairns at Cape Hubbard. OF
his Farthest Land and archipelago. the
evidence would be conclusive and all the
doubts forever silenced. Reading between
the lines and dismissing at once for what
they may be worth, all the views, opinions
and comments with which the papers are
just now so heavily burdened. the tale
stands or falls by itself and without wit
ness or testimony"
Fair Play Wanting, Perhaps.
After discussing past polar research and
the outlook for further exploration the ar
ticle continues:
Maybe this Is not the time or place t.
intrude ethics or etiquette. Yet those who
have followed arctic matters do not forget
that Peary made all this possible, and
they reserve, until the facts are known
their Judgment. Eskimo had been trained
by him, land explored and seas charted
and only an unlucky delay of contractors
for which he was In no way responsible
kept him at home In the summer of 1907
Everybody knew the facts; that his
work was unfinished; postponed. and the
fitting out Of the Bradley by stealth (the
Bradley was DIR. Cooks ship), equipped
for field work and stores and supplies fol-
inland and sea ice marches, while OF
course within the prescriptive rights OF
her owner, invited remark among men
who respect honor and observe fair play
'Peary'S plans were all as open as the
day. and all of his countrymen knew that
fifteen years of dauntless and undaunted
work in which he had accomplished many
times more than all who had preceded
hin, were to be crowned by one final at
tempt to reach the coveted goal Of CEN
turtles.
.'That his men, methods and reasonings
should all be appropriated and the long
struggle finished before he had had his
fair and final opportunity Is a transaction
upon which the American people will rem

the facts, And in the meantime the past
is already secure. Patience and more
