tentions of DR.. Frederick A. COOK
that he has reached the North Pole

There are fourteen counts in the

2. That in violation of the recog-
nized custom of Arctic exploration
DR.. Cook has not brought back rec
ords left in cairns at points he as
serts he had reached, notably the
one left at Cape Thomas Hubbard
in 1906 by Mr.. Peary.
8. That DR.. Cooks story that he

and then back to Jones Sound, dis
itance of more than 25 ~ degrees, or
about roo miles, In one sledging

that this is more than twice the
best previous record of IL degrees
! and Mr.. Peary's best record this
year of Ia degrees.
| 4. That his general equipment was
isuch that it would be physical
iimpossibility to have accomplished
the remarkable feat.
5. That DR.. Cook maintains that
he carried glass mercurial horizon
on his trip of 100 miles, whereas
Mr.. Peary used to cast iron horizon
so that it would not only be saved
from being broken, but could Dc
!heated when the mercury froze. rms
lis necessary sometimes, Mr. Peary
icontends, as mercury freezes at mi
linus 35. DR.. Cook reports finding /
as cold as minus 73 degrees.
6. That Prof, Marvin brough
back from S6:38 duplicate record
of Mr.. Peary's march and of his owl
to prove absolutely that Mr.. Pear
reached that latitude

that it could not possibly have Taste
