CONWAY CENTER, N. J., Sept. l. -"It is the most extraordinary feat in polar exploration, was the ap- praisement of Dr. Cooks exploit by General Adolphus W. Greeley, com mander of the Lady Franklin inter national polar expedition of 1884.
 "Cook's achievement must be view ed as a most extraordinary feat of polar exploration" said Greeley this evening. "he was practically with out the supplies which had previously been considered an indispensable "ut extensive article in Arctic travel. The attainment to the geographical North pole by an American is an achieve ment that merits the highest possible acknowledgement by the American people. As one whO once broke the record l offer my AeaItiest eongratu- fations.

BRUSSELLS, Belgium, Sept. l. That an American won the honor of which the navigators of the world have been struggling for 300 years is confirmed personally by Dr. Cook in a message received by the observa- tory here.
 The telegram from Lerwiek, Shet- land Islands, says: "I reached the North pole April 91, 19Os- Dis covered land in the far north. l will return to Copenhagen by the steamer Hans Egede.-Dr. Frederick Cook'
 This makes certain that if the bunting Dr. Cook took north with him two years ago withstoOd the wear of the Arctic hardship, an American flag now floats at the top of world for which daring sailors of many seas have been seeking since the discovery of the new world left nothing else more than a certain place in which names high on the scroll of fame oI might be written in the pages oi history.

Paris, Sept. 1.-''After prolong- ed fight with famine and frost we have at last succeeded in reaching the North pole.''
 This is the declaration made by Dr. Frederick A. Cook in signed state ment printed here this morning. In the statement dated from Lerwich on board the steamer Hans Egede, Wed nesday, Dr. Cook continues as follows:
 "A new highway with a strip of animated nature has been explored. Big game haunts this locality which will delight sportsmen and extend the Esquimaux horizon. The land which has been discovered is that on which rests the earth's northermost rocks"
 A triangle of thirty thousand square miles has been cut out of the ter restial which was heretofore unknown The expedition was the outcome of summer cruise in the Arctic seas on the schooner Bradley, which arrived at the limits of navigation on Smith sound late in August, 1907. Here con ditions were found favorable for launching a venture to the pole.

DR. COOK DISCOVERS
 THE NORTH POLE
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
 NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-Three hun dred years of persistent search for the North pole have at last been crowned with success.
 An American, Dr. Frederick A. Cook, performed the feat which hun dreds of other men as daring as he and more experienced tried in vain to accomplish. According to his own statement from Lerwich in a cable gram to BrusseIls to his wife from Copenhagen, which geographers and scientists and journalists are inclined to accept as authentic.
 And he did it without the aid of any other white man. Dr. Cook made the dash to the pole accom- panied only by two Esquimaux and their sled dogs at the time when his wife had almost given up hope of ever eseing her husband again.
 On all sides the exploit of the in torpid explorer is hailed as the great est in history since Columbus, braving therats of his crews that manned his tiny caravels, opened a new world to the conquering man.
