NO MYSTERY
ABOUT COOK
North Pole Mar is Said to Be Near
New York, Trying to Get
a Little Rest.

NEW YORK, Nov. 29. OR. Cook is
in the vicinity of New York City try
ing to get the rest he needs. There is
no occasion for any mystery regarding
his movements, and hope his friends
and his critics will allow him to re-
main quiet until his health has been
restored Il he decides to go to Eu'
rope he will do so, but there will be
no secrecy about his departure. He
has not been reading the newspapers
and is in no way responsible for the
many foolish and conflicting reports
which have been circulated during the
last few days"
This statement was made last night
by William L. Cook, brother of DR..
Frederick A. Cook, discoverer of the
north pole, who on last Wednesday
suffered nervous break down as a re.
suit of the mental strain under which
he had been laboring while preparing
the report which was sent with his
original data to the University ..
Copenhagen.
DR.. Cooks condition, his brother
says, is not serious, but he admits he
has suffered much from nervousness
and loss of sleep.
Charles Wake, manager of the
Eqitable Life Assurance Society, con
tinued his policy of strict silence. He
said that statements given out that
DR.. Cook would leave for Italy were
unauthorized
John r. Bradley, who financed the
polar expedition, and Captain B. s.
Osbon. secretary of the Arctic Club OF
America, have word that the explorer

Gain Some Great Victories to
Satisfy The
Public.
NEWS FROM MEL1LIA
That Great Advance by General Mar
Ina is Nothing But Bluff
For Benefit of the
People.

GTBRALTER, Nov. 29.-Late mes
sages from Melilia indicate that the
present advance of the Spanish forces
is nothing but bluff preliminary to
the early abandonment of the entire
Moroccan campaign.
The movement is engineered for nc
other purpose than to deceive the
Spanish public. 1t is recognized that IL
would not do for the troops to with
draw without doing something, so a
few paper victories are being arrang
ed to arouse home enthusiasm. The
advance is accomp' fishing no material
gains. The disputed mines remain in
the Riffs possession and the Spani
ards may never be able to take them.

The News From Nicaragua is to the
Effect That he Is in Tight
Fix at the Present
Time.
WILL HAVE TO FLEE SOON
Estrada Himself is Reported 70 hs at
Tho Head Of His Troops
and Presses Hard on
Enemy.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-As a re-
suit of two battles of recent date in
Nicaragua, DR.. Castrillo, minister des-
ignate to washington from the rev
olutionary government, believes that
the power of Zelaya will speedily be
broken and that he will be obliged to
fee for his life. According to dis
patches received today by Castrillo
from Bluefelds, government force OF
1900 men at Greytown, under Gen.
Toledo, is being hard pressed by the
insurgent army of about equal
strength, under Gen. Samora. At
Rayma, in the interior the Zelaya
troops are fightil with revolutionists
said to be under command Of Estrada,
the provisional president himself.
The state department is still re,
ticent in the move to be made in the
Groce and Cannon case. In view Of
the recent reports Of insurgent sue
cesses, it seems likely there will soon
8 be no Zelayan government with which
to deal. The new minister from MIC
aragua has been summoned to Wash
ington for conference with Secretary
Knox.
Must be Fighting.
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 29.-That
general fighting is in progress III Mic
aragua. is the belief here in the Latin
American colony and the business
men who have interests In Central
America.
The censure of cable reports and
absence OF news is regarded here as
meaning that a heavy battle is on and
all news will be suppressed until the
outcome Is known. Since Managua was
surrounded and its supplies cut off, 1t
is reasoned that the fighting is there.
Zelaya could not have maintained a
position there long and it is prob
able that open fighting has been re.
sorted to. News received here Satur-
day night that Zelaya has fed, has
not yet been denied or confirmed
This. however. merely shows the des
perate situation at the capital. If the
capital were not cut off and the re
ports We're untrue, it would have been
denied at once. Unless Zelaya was
hard pressed. the report would not
have been sent out. Most people
here are inclined to believe that
Zelaya has escaped and that his sol
diers are fighting desperately around
Managua.
The conditions around Managua
they say, make it improbable that the
consul has left the city

Base Ball.

Last sunday the Greys demon
strated that they COULD play
ball by defeating the Maroons,
1912, in an interesting game. It
was about time the Greys rose
from their late slough Of despond,
and they did rise grandly to meet
the occasion, and bring Joy and
oladness to the hearts Of their ad-
mirers. To give just due where
it belongs, the Maroons were con
siderably y weakened by the absence
Of their star pitcher, Flayio sala
zar, and their captain Montoya.
The game was replete with free
hitting and loose fielding. DuBor
played his usual fine game behind
the bat. as did McCabe on lst base.
Eliseo Gonzales was the star player
Of the Maroons. Everything con-
sidered, all the boys Of both teams
played well, but we hope to see
much improvement in the future.
To sum up, the Maroons have beaten
the Greys, the Greys have defeated
Hondo, Hondo has shown their
superiority over the Maroons, and
so, next sunday Hondo meets the
Grevs here in Taos. DO not fail
to attend this game, which vii.
start at 1f45 sharp.
This means YOU.
