ENGLISH GIVE
UP POLE IDEA
Weird Story That Secret
British Expedition Got There
is Abandoned
By United Press Leased SPECIAL Wire


LONDON, oct. 2.--London news
papers, especially the Star have at
last given up their frantic effort to
prove that a secret British expedition
discovered the North Pole before
either DR.. Cook or Commander Peary
did it.
The idea was one of the most weird
ever conjured up but the British people
seized on to it with, avidity and pur-
sued It in the vain hope that it could
be shown that the English outdid the
Americans in this banner exploration
Notwithstanding the many impossi-
BILE features, the London editors took
the story seriously-an Incompetent
sible thing to any one who fails to
appreciate the Briton's passionate
aversion to being outdone.
The editors sent their best men to
investigate the rumor. The original
rumor was amplihed by another re-
port that the British Royal Geograph-
icai Society knew all about the secret
expedition and when the members said
they did not the reporters and editors
refused to believe them. Even now
some Of the newspaper men remain
convinced that the geographers are
keeping silent because they don't think
the time ripe for publicity" and that
I'M due time, "all the facts VIII come
cut"
The British press is finding much
comfort in the contention that Com
mander Peary did not leave Captain
Bartlett behind when he made his
final dash poieward because he wanted
TO keep the honor of reaching the big
nail" to himself, but because Bartlett
was British subject The papers
are making the most of this and seem
TO be getting a lot of satisfaction out
