Fifty dozen dolls is a pretty fair

The committee hasn't got the dolls

COOK NOW BRANDED
As AN IMPOsTER
Copenhagen University Declares
Records Do Not Bear
Out Claims.
(By Associated Press.)

COPENHAGEN, December 22.-Doc-
tor Cook, the American explorer who
claims 20 have reached the North Pole
on April p, 1908, is being branded as
an imposter and fake on every hand.
Scientists and explorers have wholly
lost faith in the man who but short
time ago was greeted everywhere with
signal honOrs.
The final brand of fraud was placed
on the claims Of Explorer Cook yester-
day when the report Of the University
of Copenhagen scientists was made
public.
The committee having the matter in
charge has submitted Doctor Cook s
records to a searching investigation and
announced yesterday that the records
turned over to them by the explorer
fail to prove that he reached the North
Pole. The statement proceeds further
and declares that the alleged records
of Doctor Cook are valueless.
This has created a profound sensation
in the official cirles whore Doctor Cook
was received with such marked favor
on his arrival from the North
Newspaper correspondents have been
unable 10 find Cook or learn Of his
probable whereabouts 1t is believed
that he is in retirement somewhere IN
Europe.
Cook : claim that he reached the
North Pole April q. 1908, is now utter
IL discredited, the University of COpen
hagen scientists being the only ones
who had not repudiated his claim.

J. K. Paele, road overseer for the
Koo,aupoko district, is facing charges
which, if proven, may send him to the
penitentiary for long term. Joseph
j. Fern, Mayor of the City and County
of Honolulu, last night successfully OPP
posed every move to have the charges
made public and but for the fact that
Deputy County Attorney Milverton re-
fused to wear the executive muzzle,
would have kept all knowledge of the
affair from the board of supervisors.
Though an Advertiser reporter was
advised by the deputy county attorney
that the affidavits and other documents
connected with the case are public prop
erty, and that he was entitled to have
access to them, City Clerk Kalauokala-
mi, acting under the orders of Mayor
Fern, fatty declined to allow the re-
porter to see them.
Though the exact nature of the
charges is being kept secret by the
executive, II is known that they are
criminal in nature. The compliments
who brought them to the attention of
the county attorney wanted them pre-
scented to the grand jury at once. AS

Court of Inquiry Finds That the
Veteran Pilot Did His
Full! Duty.

A maritime court of inquiry, com
posed of Captain Josselyn of the Amer
lean bark Nuuanu; Captain Drew of the
American bark R. P Rithet and Cap
tain Clarke, the harbormaster, sat yes
terday to hear testimony regarding the
stranding Of the British snip Celtic
Chief two weeks ago near the entrance
to Honolulu harbor channel. In con-
Guiding its labors, this court gave a
summary of its findings to Superin-
tendent of Public Works Campbell, who
announced that the board finds Capt.
j. r. Macaulay, the pilot who had
boarded the Celtic Chief on her arrival,
in the performance of his duties as
pilot had done everything within his
power to aid the vessel in coming TO
a proper anchorage and under no cir
cumstances can he be blamed for the
vessel having gone upon the reef
The board of inquiry was merely an
advisory body called by Mr.. Campbell,
there being nothing in the law requir-
ing him to convene such a board, but,
not being seafaring man, the super
intendent decided that a board of ship
captains, to take testimony and reduce
the statements to a convenient brevlty,
would give a better opportunity TO
reach a definite conclusion as to the
culpability. or otherwise, Of the pilot.
Captain Macaulay is thus fully exon
Grated from any blame for the vessel S
