WILL REACH POLE CLIMAX
Peary Arctic Club Promises to PUB
Ilsh Explorers Proofs.

New York, Oct. 4.-The North pole
controversy is expected to reach a
climax this week when the Peary Arc
tic club makes public the statement
, which Commander Robert z. Peary
declares will prove that he was the
only white man to reach the pole.
General Thomas H. Hubbard, presi-
dent of the club, will be in the city to-
day or tomorrow and will Immediate
ly call a meeting at which the state
ment prepared by Peary and submit
ted to General Hubbard at Bar Har-
Dor, Me-. will be gone over and then
made public.
DR.. Frederick A. Cook. who will be
in Baltimore tonight has arranged to
issue a counter statement. it is an
nounced, to show that his rivals declar-
alton does not prove that he did not
precede Peary to the pole by nearly a
year.
The cargo of Arctic trophies gathered
by the Peary party will be unloaded
from the Roosevelt at once, and the
ship, which has made two polar trips,
l.; expected to be offered for sale by
the Peary Arctic club. AS the vessel
was not built for carrying cargo, It
is said to be useful only on exploration
trips and for the reason that there are
not now any prominent North Pole
seekers al least on this side of the
ocean, there is some talk that fortune
seekers may acquire the ship for a
search of the West Indies for the hid
den nordeS of pirates.

CASHED TWO CHECKS.
Clyde Covert, Bridge Worker, Was
Brought Back From Joplin.

Clyde Covert. charged with forging
pay check on the Leavenworth & Topeka
Railway company. was caught in Garth
age. Mo. brought back to Topeka and
locked in the county jail last night. Dep
uty Sheriff JudHins went after Covert
Friday with requisition papers.
Covert had gone to his home in Garth
age His people said to be wealthy
and that there was no excuse for the
forgery. A brother and prominent law
yer accompanied him back to take charge
of the case.
The prisoner, who is a young man. was
employed on a bridge building gang.
When the pay checks for the month of
August were handed out a clerk gave him
one for $11.OS which was drawn payable
to Jesse L. Covert. 1t was signed by the
money Clyde signed the of Jesse
and gave it to Mrs. Z. r. ShOaf, proprte-
tor of the Holiday house, in payment TOT
board
Extenuating circumstances are expected
to favor the young man before the law.
He is said to have thought that the cheek
was his own pay but that mistake hao
been made in the name so in order TO get
the money he simply signed the name as
ii appeared on the front side. The amount
was about the same he was expecting
and he suspected nothing wrong.
HIS own pay check came to him later.
however, and he exhibited no reluctance
to cash that also before he left for Mis-
company named Jesse l.. Covert who is
no relation to Clyde Covert. The check
had evidently been delivered into the
hands of the wrong Covert but that would
not excuse the forging of the name.
Covert was taken 10 the city court this
morning to get time for hearing and
bond set but nothing was done and he Will
be given another chance tomorrow.

| New York, Oct 4.-Wilbur Wright
today defied the air, the water and the

starting point.
He mad been gone for 3S minutes
and 33 seconds, making one of the
most perilous trips ever attempted.

10 miles an hour and had to head in
a little toward the east, instead of
pointing the machine straight up the

REBUKE FOR MURPHY.
Hermann Will See Whether Chicago

Cincinnati. Oct. 4.-"Yes, I have re-

ROBBED and THEN SHOT
Bean Lake Merchant Has Thrilling
Experience With Three Men.

Atchison, Kan. Oct. 4.-Being held up
in his store by two white men and Il
negro, robbed of s42 and his revolver,
taken four miles from home and shot
and beaten up in a fight, then bound
and gagged and stood up against a trea
with a nOoSed rope around his neck and
the other end of the rope tied to a limb
above his head and finally escaping and
returning home, is the thrilling expert :
ence of Frank Baker, a merchant of
Bean Lake. eight miles southeast of
here.
Soon after o'clock he was held up in
his store, taken out and searched and
then guarded by the negro while the
white men rif1ed the money drawer
They then walked him UP the railroad
track, halted him and ordered him to
when they asked for his shirt he re-
belled, thinking they were going to use
his garment to sink him in Bean Lake
after they had killed him.
In the fight he got hold of one of the
revolvers but was beaten over the
arms and head and finally shot and
slightly stunned before he let loose of
the revolver Then the robbers took
his shirt off. tore it into strings, tied his
feet, tied his hands behind him, stood
him up against a tree with the rope
around his neck. The tree stood on q
side hill and should his feet slip from
under him death would have followed
from strangulation.
Warning him not to make a noise, the
men then left him and made their es-
cape. Before leaving they put Bakers
coat on to protect him from
mosquitoes. After working an hour
and a half Baker succeeded in freeing
himself and returned home and tele-
phoned to Atchison for medicine. The
bullet only cut a cash in his scalp
Bakers family lives above the store
but did not know of his troubles for al
most an hour.
No trace of the three men who robbed
and shot him has been found and
farmers near Bean Lake who made
through the woods have had no
success. Should they catch the men it
is believed there would be lynching.

When the explorer arrived at the New

DR.. Cook arrived almost on the heels
of this incident. William f. GUIDE,
president of the Washington chambee
