Peary Gives Cook
the Lie Direct
In Message to United Press Commander Makes
Positive Statement That His Rival Is An
Imposter.

NEW YORK. Sept. 11.-Commander Robert E.
Peary, who is at Battle Harbor today, sent wire
less message to the United Press in which he reiter-
ates the charge that DR.. Frederick A. Cook never
reached the north pole, and asserts that at the
proper time he will produce sufficient proof to show
that the Brooklyn physician is 'imposter"
Peary does not expect to reach Sydney before
Sept. Is.
Says He Will Prove It.
"Accept my thanks for your kind tele
gram of congratulations. Replying to your in
quiries: l found no trace of DR.. Cook at the
pole. AS matter of fact, he has not been at
the pole, on April 21, 1908, any other time.
This statement is made advisedly and will be
backed by proof at the proper time.
(Signed) "PEARY"
In supplementary message to the United
Press, Commander Peary says:
"See my Washington cabegram to the
White House, state department. navy depart
ment and coast survey, and also kilograms to
President Schurman at Cornell university
(Sgned) 'PEARY."
Expect an Expose.
The New York Times, which has a contract
with the explorer to publish his narratives, today
prints cable message from Peary declaring that
soon DR.. Cook makes his claim before a reputable
geographical scientific society Peary will be in po
stion to furnish material which may prove to be
every interesting reading for the public"

Stories Are Similar.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE
friends of Frederick A. Cook to-
day are declaring that Comman-
der Peary's story is the very best
confirmation of Cooks claims. To
support their point they call at
tention to the similarity in the
two stories. Friends of the
Brooklyn explorer say that Peary
claims to have travelled even fas-
ter than Cook, although they al
lege Peary's friends scoffed at
Cooks story of speed.
On the dash for the pole DR..
Cook says he found the following
conditions existing: From the
SSth parallel the ice pack was
active but the cracks quickly
froze. The ice steadily improved
from there on. The pole was Il
vast field of purple snow and
there was no land and no life"
Peary reports: '''From the sSth
parallel the ice was smooth. and
new ice formed quickly in the
cracks, which were so thin that
they broke as the sledges passed.
There was no life and no land"

Tt is understood that Morgan
will carry out Harriman's plans
by making Judge Robert 8. Lovett

that all the great Hartman aides
will be retained or advanced IN
the management of the properties.
These reports are strengthened
by the fact that ]. Pierpont Nor
