DIR. Cook HONORED.

DR.. Cook appeared Thurday at a
high official function. The Univer-
sity of Copenhagen conferred upon
him the degree Of Sc. D. doctor of
Science), thereby recognizing, it was
pointed out by his friends, in an i'm
portant official manner, his claim to
the discovery Of the north pole. DR..
Cook has cancelled his engagement
to lecture before the Geographical
Society of Brussels, and will reach
New York about September 20 or p.
Captain Donald Amundsen will prob
ably accompany him.
DIR. Cooks plan to send a ship
from Copenhagen to Greenland to
bring back to civilization his Eskimo
companions on his exploration trip,
will not be carried out until next
year, as Danish officials have inform
ed him that it is now too late in the
season for a trip to Etah. The ex-
petition, 1t is stated, will be made
early next spring.
SCIENTIFIC MEN MARK TINE.
In scientific circles both in Ameri-
ca and abroad, the prevailing incli-
nations seem to await direct word
from both explorers before arriving
at a conclusion as to their respective
achievements and although a bellig.
erent attitude was still shown in the
two camps, open hostities were large.

chief hacker, reached Sydney, B. c.,
and Mrs. Peary who will also meet
the explorer at Sydney, left Port
land on her way north early in the
day. Both expect to greet Comman-
der Peary on Thursday. although
the long and thus far unexplained
delay at Battle Harbor may make
necessary a change in their plans.

Hains under a ceaseless fire of searching cross-exami- nation. and while the defendant frequent ly admitted that he could not remember some of the minor details, the main es- sentials of his direct testimony remained unshaken.

RAILROADS TO BE
 GIVEN FREE HAND Bill To Prohibit Rate Increase Is Adversely Reported SEVERAL MEMBERS ABSENT
Some of the Committee Voted for the Bill Just Because They Knew For aker Was for lt-BiIl Was h.
 troduced a Year Ago.

Washington, January 6.--An adverse re-
 port to the Senate on Senator Fulton s
 bill to prohibit railroads from increasing
 freight and passenger rates without due
 notice was made today by Chairman
 Elxlns of the committee on interstate
 commerce. The action of the committee
 anticipated a message from President Roosevelt, calling attention to the need
 for further legislation on the subject of
 railroad rate legislation as indicated by
 the recent decision of the supreme court of the United States in the case of E. H.
 Hartman against the interstate com
 merce commission. The report by Sen ator Elxins was made after two tie votes
 had been had on the Fulton bill at a
 meeting of the committee earlier in the
 day, at which there was an exhibition of some sharp parliamentary practice. Sey- eral members of the committee were ab- sent and 1t was not known how they
 would vote on the measure.
 The senators who opposed the bill ob- tained authority to make an ad-
 verse report after having procured the vote of Senator Foraker, one of the absentees, who was known to be against it. It is expected that the President s . favor of taking up the Fulton bill in the Senate, regardless of the report made against it, and Senator Fulton already 1 has given notice that he will make an effort on the floor to overturn the com mittee reoprt
 | When the meeting was called to order there were present Senators Elkins, All l drich, Kean, Deliver, Crane, Tillman Foster, Newlands and Taylor.
 On MT. Newland's motion to report the bill favorably the ayes were: Deliver | Tillman, Newlands and Taylor, and the nays were: Elkins, Aldrich, Kean and 1 Crane.
 l MT. Foster was excused from voting | and as the vote was tie the motion was
 lost. A vote was then had on MT Al | drich's motion to report the bill adversely
 adn the chairman voted Senator Cullon 1 icy proxyan favof soiF the motion. As MT | Foster voted against the motion a second 1 tie vote resulted. statement was made
 by Senator Elkins that Senator Forakel
 was opposed to the measure, and he was
 authorized to obtain the latter's vote anc
 make a report to the Senate accordingly l No mention was made of the fact that Senators Clapp and McLaurin also were
 absent, and the chairman was not author 1 ized to obtain their votes.
 The Fulton bill was introduced on the first day of the session of Congress a year
 ago, and its author constantly has urged it's passage.
 The penalty for violations of the pro- visions of the bill is fine of not less than $100O, nor more than $20,000 for each of fense, and the same penalty Is made to apply to the receiving or granting of re-
 bates in any form. .

Body Is DiSmen1bered
 And Burned M SfOVeS
Mystery Of Disappearance Of Methodist Preacher Solved By Finding Mutlated and Charred Fragments of His Body In Two Stoves In One of the Churches
 of Which He Was Pastor.

was 56 years old and of athletic build,
 had made a terrific struggle for his life. Without Investigating further Brown
 fled to his home, where he had a key to
 the church. He returned and locked the
 doors and hurried to the village of HicS-
 ey, from which place he notified the
 sheriff's office at Port Huron. The authorities on their arrival at the
 church found parts of the dismembered
 body in the two stoves, located respective ly at the front ano rear, and discovered
 in one stove the head of what was ap- parently a new hatchet the handle of which had been burned off. A dirk was also found in the church, and 1t is be-
 lleved that the dirk served for the mur- der, while the hatchet was used to cut the body to pieces
 The minister's horse was found today tied to a tree in the village of Pine River. the dead mans overcoat being in the buggy.
 Pine River is a small village near Thornton on the main line of the Grand Trunk road. and fully 20 miles from the scene of the murder.
 The belief is growing that the butcher ing of the unoffending preacher was the act of a pervert, as there Is no fndica- ton whatever of any motive for the crime aside from an overpowering lust for blood.
 It has been pointed out that the Car
 michael tragedy occurred within two
 miles of the place where a few years ago John Staley was found murdered. The mystery of Statleys death was never solved. He was found dead in a culvert
 with his back ridded by shot slugs. bull lets and various bits of scrap metal. The authorities are tracing the movements l of a half-witted man who lives In the ! district where the crime was committed 1 They are at the same time following the l clues regarding the stranger who arrived
 at Hickey yesterday, and was directed l to the Columbus church.
 l One of the principal means of identifiea-
 ton Of the minister's mutilated body was 1 his spectGcles, found in a cass marked
 with his name and lying among the blood stained fragments of his clothing on the 1 floor of the church.
 Dr. Hanson of Port Huron. the county | physician. who accompanied Sheriff Wag- l erseil and Prosecutor Brown to the scene l of the rnurder, took charge of the bones 1 found in the stove. Dr. Hanson said to- night that while the trunk of the body was comparatively little burned, the only l bones of the limbs that co Id be recog- 1 nized were forearm and a femur The base of the skull also was recovered.
