GROWS MORE BITTER
Controversy Is Now World
Wide and With Both
Men in Race for New
York Interest is Intense.

NEW YORK. Sept. 9.--The con
troversy for priority OF discovery
OF the North Pole between Com
mander Robert u. peary and DR.
Frederick A. Cook shows no sign
OF abatement today. although there
are no new details to whet the
appetite OF public curiosity.
Peary aboard his staunch steamer
Roosevelt. is being buffeted by
northern gales I'm the straits of
Belle Isle. He IL over 900 miles
from the nearest cable office and
the time Of his arrival Is a matter
of guesswork. No one knows when
the wind viii abate sufficiently to
permit the Roosevelt to make prog.
ress 10 the southwark Peary stop
ped ut Battle Harhor last night.
DR. Cook is still in Copenhagen.
but II Is generally known that he
contemplates sailing Sunday and
reaching here by September 81
Consequently the two explorers are
virtually racing 10 the metropolis
of the United States TO tell their
stories.
Controversy World Wide.
The controversy between the two
explorers has spread until It has
become wori wide Scientists and
laymen alike are taking sides. some
supporting Cook and others holding
fast In their confidence IN Peary
IN Europe for the most part the
public credence lies with Peary.

in his lecture has had Its effect. and

achievement are hopeful that In
