1t was learned today that the new
nfielder for whom Jack Tlghe, man
ager of the Islanders, has been bar
Gaining for the last few days, and who
nas finally been secured, is no other
rhan Harry Swacina, the former Peo-
rian, who has gone the big league
route. Swanica is to play first base
for the Islanders. which will allow
Stark to be used as a catcher. 1t will
be remembered that "Swats,' as he
was popularity known, was sold to
Pittsburg by Peoria two years ago and
remained there part of the season. He
was finally sold to Louisville and from
there he went to Harrisburg. SwatS'
had liking for this city and Jack
Tighe and for some time he had been
trying to arrange deal whereby lie
could join the Islanders. He was not
rlaying up to his standard with Har-
risburg and so Tighe found it possible
% arrange matters satisfactorily and
the result is that if SwaniCa did not
report to the Islanders manager To-
lay, he will be very likely to show up
tomorrow.
President sexton Says Something.
Sad to relate, however, he comes
with an ak hanging over his head and
this will be dropped on him before he
cat play a single game, unless he hap
ceIed TO have goodly supply of the
cash on him when he joins the team.
rhe Peoria management has notified
President Sexton that Swanica is in
1ebted 10 the Peoria club to the extent
Of over 500 and under the laws of the
league, he can be prevented from play
ng here until he has made good on
his obligations. Just how it comes that
Peoria had made no attempt to collect
from the player while he was in big
league company and drawing a fat
salary is not known, and it seems
rather queer that they should have for
gotten his obligations until it began

Arctic Club Accepts His Re.
port Against Cook.
UNANIMOUS VOTE ON CHARGES
Commander Dissects Rival Explor-
er's Claim to Have Reached
North Pole and Calls Him
an 1mpostor.
UNANIMOUS VOTE ON CHARGES

New York, Oct. 5.-The officers of
of the president, General Thomas II.
Hubbard, at 60 Wall street and lis
tened to the reading Of the official
statement of Commander Peary, in
which are embodied his charges that
DR.. Frederick A. Cook did not reach
the north pole and is an impostor. The
report was accepted by those present
by unanimous vote.
Those present at the meeting includ-
ed General Hubbard, Herbert L. Bridg-
man, Edward G. Parish and Auto A.
Haven.
General Hubbard said that the Pea
ry report would not be released for
publication for at least a week, as elab-
crate maps have to be made to go
with 1t.
While the utmost secrecy has been
maintained regarding the specific ma
ture of the commanders charges,
which will point to Cook as an impos-
tor. they make an exhaustive analysis
Of Cooks own story Of his journey to
the pole. Especially does the COM
mander dissect DR.. Cooks statements
regarding his scant equipment for this
stupendous undertaking.
Members Of the club say that Pea
ry's report goes sharply into the ques-
ton of the amount Of provisions that
would be imperative in such journey
as Cook describes. On the basis of the
amount Cook took on his two sledges
he confessed to have with him Peary
contends that these sledges could not
possibly have carried enough food to
last from Cape Thomas Hubbard, in
Grinnell Land, to the pole and back to
this starting point. No game, it is
pointed out, could have been shot
after leaving Cape Thomas Hubbard.

will not have drying effect and may
be used every day IL necessary.
