PEARY NOT BELIEVED
PRoF. DYcHE TALxs or STATE
kansas Man Says Data Furnsshed by Exp1eres is IncreA1b1e--Thinks .r Both Men Went
 to Pole.

Topeka. Kas. oct. Is.-Prof. U. l.. sDyche. head of the Department of Nat nral History, of the University of Kan sas. who made several trips to the north as a member both, of the Peary and the Cook exploring parties. and who is personally acquainted with the explorers. today made . statement to The Topeka State Journal. concerning Commander Robert E.. Peary's state- ment published today.
 Prof. Dyche's statement is in part as follows: D. sf@s t-fa. sf
 Commander Peary's statement pub lished today, to my mind. Is absolutely incredible. It Is based on the memory Of ignorant Eskimos, who were incap- able of understanding q country to which they had never been before well enough to outline such a map as that published today and credited by Mir. Peary to their explanation Only in- telligent white mon with instruments could make their way to such q coun- try and be able to report in detail up- on 1t a year after the trip was made
 While believe Commander Peary reached the pole, I have uot shadow of doubt that Dr. Cook reached the pole first, and exactly as he details in his own published story.
 The most astounding part of Com mandear Peary's story, 1t seems to me, consists of a statement that Dr. Cook got to the north part of land bordering on the great Arctic Ocean, the point for which he had striven for a month. enduring the hardships of intense cold and the rigors of Arctic climate with ample supplies, sleds and Eskimos all in first class condition, and thenl sim ply. turned back, apparently for no rea- son.
 How unlikely 1t Is that a man with fvxrA rfxr ~ANt Il fired with an ambition of a lifetime. would give mp just at a time and place when one of the greatest trophies the world has to bestow upon a brave and daring explorer was standing within his reach. beckoning him to come on ."

TAFT IN ARIZONA
BE COMES OUT sQUARELY FOR
 STATEHOOD.
president Urges People Net to Have Constltuticn Like Oklahoma Which
 He Calls A Geological Gar slen of Cranks.-

Prescott, Arix, Oct 1s.-President
 Taft won . welcome into Arizona to- .dzy by proclaimip wherever he went Ithat he was heartily in favor of State
 hood for each of the territories of Ari- bona and New Mexico.
 When the joyousness that greeted |this statement had died away. Mir. Taft had some sober words for his audience . .in which he sought to impress upon them the necessity for deliberation in Framing State constitution.
 He declared that their constitution should follow the simplicity of the |constitution of the United States and |shouid be merely fundamental laws | with simple rules of limitations. MT. Taft urged the people of Arizona to profit by what he termed the mis- takes of Oklahoma in constitution making. He characterized the Okla homa constitution as Geological gar len of cranks."
 The Presidents train was whirled alonG at breakneck speed through ocorching desert wastes of sandbrush and alkali. At times the alkali stirred |np by the rushing Of the cars filtered in cloud through ventilation screens and closed windows and was well nigh ptif1ing. The sky. was cloudless and the sun shone with torrid intensity. Throughout the day the horizon was lined with the jagged rusty peaks of sunbaked mountains shroudedsin azure
 haze. Occasionally. however, the train rushed through a workable little gar
 den spot of fruit and flowers where
 the touch of water had worked its
 wonders. Altogether the President had
 a typical glimpse of the far southwest, At Phoenix and Prescott where he
 made his principal stops and at each intermediate station where he appeared for Q moment or two on the rear plat
 form of his car, he was greeted by the
 cosmopolitan people of the territory.
 The anachronism of Indians in their
 primitive blanket wrappings standing
 in the midst of a group of high-pow-
 cred automobiles became common be- fore the day was over.
 The territorial officials, headed by
 Governor Sloan met the President
 train at Yuma before daylight and will
 continue with him until after his visit to tho Grand Canyon tomorrow.
 Postmaster General Hitchcock joined the party today. With him was Victor
 Mason, who had charge of the Repu5li- can national headquarters in New York during the campaign of last fall.

 T can only say that the actual Iiv- ing human witnesses of my journey to the pole will themselves be able to disprove the distorted declarations put into their mouths in the statements issued by Commander Peary," said pr. Cook today to the Associated Press.
 Commander Peary evidently regards their evidence as of the most profound importance. and so do I.
 |. Tt seems to me that he might have brought them along with him if he was so confident that they would cor roborate his story. He however, chose not to do so. I will therefore send for them as soon as possible and place them at the disposal of any scientific or other body that may desire to examine them with the aid of any competent interpreters whom the examining body may appoint"
 Dr. Cook said he would not enter controversy over the discovery of the pole. f

New York. Oct. 13.-Only the pro duction of astronomical records can settle the polar controversy and these same records might be fabricated. This in effect was the paradoxical statement made in a letter today by Prof. Harold Jacoby, professor of astronomy at Co lumbia University.
 It was Prof. Jacoby's belief that the north pole had been reached, but that even when all the records had been published the final verdict would have to rest upon the veracity of the ex- piore-s because of the possibility Of fabricating polar records. He did not specify whether he accepted the claims of Peary or Cook, or both.
