The announcement of Commander
Peary that he has discovered the north pole
rivets the attention of the entire civilized
world
Whatever question of priority may exist
between the claims of Commander Peary
and DR. Cook, there can be no doubt that
to the United States belongs the unquestion-
able credit and lasting renown of discovering
the north pole.
The remarkable coincidence of two
American announcements of such colossal
achievement, coming within five days, after
centuries of fruitless endeavor, constitutes
one of the most remarkable condolences in
history.
The question of priority in reaching the
pole now absorbs attention in this country
and Europe. That Peary will claim to be
the first discoverer appears to be definitely
assured from the following:
First-Formal announcement has been
telegraphed from Indian Harbor, Labrador,
to all principal American and geographical
societies of all nations, including Japan and
Brazil, specifically announcing that the
north pole was discovered April 6 by the
Peary Arctic Club expedition, under COM
mand of Commander Peary.'
Second-A London dispatch received
from ST. Johns, Newfoundland, states that
Commander Peary claims that he was the
first man to reach the north pole.
Aside from the question of priority,
Commander Peary's announcement of reach
ing the pole appears to be accepted through
out the United States and the world at large
by scientists as we'll as the general public
and there is an absence of the doubt and
skepticism which greeted the Cook announce
ment. There is, however, apparent reserve
of judgment on the question of priority be-
tween the two explorers
Dr. Cook, in an interview at Copen
hagen today, says he is the first to shout
hurrah for Peary If he has telegraphed an
announcements that he has reached the pole
then it is true, and congratulate him..
DIR. Cook also states that he does not
want any controversy.
No further word direct from Peary has

Underwriters Notjfied--Cause t'
OF Accident Still
Unknown.

A meeting of stockholders Of the
! Cairo Sand & Gravel Co, was held
Yesterday to consider the catastrophe
which befell the company early yes
terday morning in the sinking OF
their dredge boat on the Mississippi
side Of the city. The matter was
talked over as freely as possible and
4 it was agreed that the plant would
be re-sstablished as quickly as pos
sibls.
Little was developed yesterday as
to the cause Of the sinking, which
must be matter Of speculation until
a diver can examine and report upon
the condition Of the wreck. The boat
was examined recently by the insur-
ance underwriters and found TO be
a safe risk, and a policy for $4,000
was in force at the time Of the acci-
dent. The underwriters have been
notified of the accident and pending
their action the company will not do
anything.
The company recently put $4,000
worth of new machinery on the boat
and it was doing excellent work. 1t
expected to complete its big contract
for filling the Cairo & Thebes ground
within a week or ten days, and the
city work little later
The sunken boat lies in over twenty
feet of water with a swift surrent
sweeping over and around her. The
chmneys are above water several
feet but the boat is out of sight. One
of the pontoons to which the boat
was attached is in danger of being
taken down also and in order to save
the others this one may be cut loose
and sacrificed.
The rivers are still rising slowly
which is another circumstance against
salvage work aat present.

TO SAVE cHESTERJORDAN
His Attorneys Will Claim That One
of. the Jurymen Was Insane
at Time of the Trial.
(Herald Specially

Boston, Mass, Sept lin the
East Cambridge court tomorrow the
attorneys for Chester S. Jordan, who
was found guilty last May of murder
in the first degree, will argue on a
motion for new trial Jordan, who
is brother-in-law of Jesse Livermore,
the Wall street "plunger," was con-
victed of the murder of his wife, who
was an actress. The crime was COM
mitted in Somerville year ago and
was one of the most gruesome with
which the police of this vicinity ever
had to deal.
After killing his wife, according to
his own confession, Jordan cut her
body to pieces, hoping to hide the
crime. When arrested he was on his
way to New York, taking with him a
trunk containing the torso of the
dead woman The head and other
portions of the body had been burned
in the furnace of their home in Som
erville According to the evidence
the murder was the result of drink
and jealousy,
In the trial last May eminent coun-
sci of New York and Boston were en-
ployed to defend Jordan. The defense
was based on a plea that the woman
came to her death by falling down
stairs during the progress. of a quar-
rel with her husband, apd that the lat
ter in his fright sought to conceal all
evidence of the tragedy by hiding the
body and telling the neighbors after
wards that she had deserted him and
gone to Europe.
