0E Cocks Lawyer has no

Discussed The Affidavits of Captain
Loose, Who Claims to Have Fur

Croker Go-Between.

New York, Dec. 9.-Dr. Frederick
A. Cooks personal lawyer, Henry Wei
lington Wack, has severed relations
with his client. Mr.. Wack refused to
night to confirm or deny his with
drawal, but it can be affirmed on com
patent authority, that, after a consul
tation with his partners, Mr.. WacE
wrote DR.. Cook so long ago as Novem-
ber 80 that he must beg him to seek
LEGAL advice elsewhere.
L haven't the remotest idea,' said
Nj. Wack tonight, where Dr.. Cook
is keeping himself or why he persists
in s~eclusion when his presence is vital
to his own interests and his friends.
Personally [ am inclined to the belief
he is abroad.
One thing, however, is certain,
there is agreement tonight for the first
time among those who have always
believed that DR.. Cook discovered the
north pole, those who have never be-
l.eved and those who have waited to
be Informed on disinterested authority.
Partisans and skeptics alike nov COLI
tede certain cardinal facts which adj
nit of no argument, namely: DR.. Cook

Of Copenhagen for the inspection of g
committee. Two men-one a broker
who says he acted as g~o-between, ans
one, a skilled navigator-have sworE
that they supplied the doctor with {

Last night Dr.. Cooks friend,

Mr.. Wack, however, did receive a
letter from Mrs. Cook on December .,
dated December 4, and posted Deem

Others of DR.. Cooks friends granted
tonight that Captain Loose consulted
freely with him and even occupied
rooms adjoining his at the Gramatar

which not even Captain Loose cared t.

NEW TREATIES ARE
PREPARED BY KNOX

Washington, July 26.-Secretary OF
State Knox will o initiate proceed
ings with a number OF foreign govern
ments looking to construction Of treat
les.
Almost Immediately upon his arrival
in Constatinople, Mr.. Straus, the new
ambassador, will take UP the question
of a naturalization treaty with Turkey.
Under the regime Of Abdul HamiG our
dealings with that government were
anything but satisfactory. Under the
new rule, however, a marked improve
ment Is noted.
A treaty with Siam Is a probability
of the near future.
Japan 10 FESTIVE. "f
Japan undoubtedly Is becoming res
tive under trade conditions imposed In
her treaty with the United States. This
recently was made evident when she
proposed to this government that ne
for a new treaty be begun at
once Notwithstanding the fact that the
n does not expire OF hmita-
ton for two years. "
Japan's statesmen are now at work
on revisions Of q number OF treaties
which expire in 1910. and 1t was her
earnest desire that the United States
consent to q termination Of u
next year so that we might
join in the negotiations with other
powers. Our trade interests In Japan.
however, are not suffering and for this
and other reasons this government
does not see it's way clear to discuss
the questions involved before the ex-
piration Of Dur treaty in 1911.

DULUTH HIT HARD
BY A CL0UDBURSTj

Duluth, Mimi, July 26~.--Following
the heavy rains of Tuesday, last nights
cloudburst caused devastation. The
loss will reach $500, 900.
Three lives were lost. Two children
were swept from their mothers sides
on Ninth venue east, m body being
lost in a sewer at the bottom Of the
hill. .hE.
Another child was lost In KeeneI
creek at West Duluth. #f
The entire hillside became practical
iy one great. waterfall. The sewers
already overlooking, were inadequateI
to carry off the water, and the streets
and avenues quickly turned into tor
rents, with the water running three
feet deep. Street cars were compelled
to suspend. Citizens stripped off their
shoes and waded home. The theaterI
crowds came up to find the streets a.
miniature lake and the men, pickingl
up their women companions, carried
them to higher ground. Automobiles
and hacks were impossible, owing to-
the accumulation Of mud in the streets.
The hotels were crowded with thosel
unwilling to venture forth.
Twenty or more houses were washed
away along small creeks in the SUI
burbs. Several narrow escapes are res
ported from drowning on Superior
street, the main t~horoughfare OF Du-
luth.
