Both Cook and Peary have announc- ed that they have reached the North Pole. A correspondent who went on board the Hans Egede from the pilot steamer off Skagen, Denmark, was able to obtain a few words with Dr. Frederick A. Cook.
 The explorer aScribed his success in reaching the North pole to the fact that he made use of the old methods, namely Eskimos and dogs, that he lived like an Eskimo himself
 The doctor gave a vivid sketch of his expedition, in which he said:
 Going northward I struck first westerly course from Greenland and then moved northward.
 "I arrived at the North Pole April 21 1908, as already announced, ac- companied by only two Eskimos. We reached the pole at o'clock in the morning.
 l took daily observations for whole fortnight before arriving at the pole
 Returning we were forced to take a more westerly route, and the first ten days took observations daily and re- corded them.
 was unable to measure of depth of the sea, as had not the necessary instruments.
 The lowest temperature recorded was 89 degrees centigrade below zero (Eighty- three degrees centigrade be- low is equal to IF degrees below zero, Fahrenheit.)
 l have ample proof that 1 reached the North pole ill the observations I took, which afford a certain means of corroborating the truth of my state ments
 Although 1 am proud of my achieve ment in planting the American flag at the North pole, look with much great CT pride to the fact that I travelled around more than 30000 square miles of hitherto unknown ground, and open ed up an entirely new field of explora tion."
 The severe gale blowing cut short attempts to obtain a longer interview with Dr. Cook
 The Hans Egede was met in the North Sea by the pilot steamer Polar Bear, aboard which was Captain An drup, the well-kown polar explorer, who was sent as a special representa- tive of the Danish government to well come Dr. Cook. As the vessels ap- preached one another Captain Andrup led the cheers for the American ex- plorer.
