Largest Crowds Ever Assembled Anywhere.

the cliff OF skyscrapers on Manhat-
tan island wore an unacustomed
fringe of black-human heads. Ever
window was filled. every roof was
lined. Every available inch of space
was used by people determined to see
the unusual naval pageant.
A Collision.
The naval parade went through sub
stantianv as planned and in slightly
and noble order. At a few minutes
after 3 o'clock this morning the Cler-
mont was towed from her anchorage
beyond the sheltering lee of Staten
island tn the rendezvous. Near her

his sails and carried away smartiy.
Suddenly the machinery OF the cler-

most convincing realism. The Half
Moon was under too much headway
to stop and had too little sea room
to come about. The collision fol-
lowed. When it was seen that neither

Once in the shelter OF Manhattan
island, the clermont cut off her tug
and finished her course to the water

under her own steam. but the little
Half Moon, her sails furied. her 18th
century poop looming high above
shipping or much heavier tonnage and
her broad orange inscription streaming
hrayely behind her. was assisted.
Picturesque Climax.
At the water gate the exercises cuI-
minated with the presentation of the
Half Moon to the commission by the
Dutch ENJOYS. This ceremony was
formal and furnished n picturesque
climax as the living shade of Henry
Hudson in velvet and ruff, grasped
the hand Of the descendant of Robert
Fulton. AS they stood there the
thunder of the guns of the warships
re-echoed back from the hills and far
up the river.

Whitney is aboard the schooner
Jeanne, and some of the crew of that
vessel assert that DIR. Cooks Eskimos
have made contradictory statements
and express the opinion that DIR. Cooks
story is absurd. 1t must be remem-
bered however, that the Jeanie is a
Peary ship and the crews sympathies
are with him.
The reason that Cook left Etah to go
south was that he thought Peary might
return any day. and he resented Peary's
putting men in his house. He also
was hurrying' to reach civilization to
get the news home first.
MIR. Whitney left the Roosevelt to
Join the Jeanie. not because of any
friction with Peary but to shoot polar
bears. 1t is expected that the Jeanie
will leave Indian Harbor tomorrow
and come direct to Brigus, 3S miles
northwest of St. Johns. She should
reach there Tuesday night or Wednes-
day morning.

Cook Tells Story.
New Haven, Conn, Sept. 25.-In an
Interview given to a New Haven news
paper In New York last night. d.
A. Cook told of his meeting with Har-
~ Whitney in the Arctic. The ex-
plorer said he was on his way south
and when within five miles of Anna
took he was surprised to see several
men approaching.
TT was" continued DIR. Cook, Harry
Whitney and some of the Eskimos with
him on his hunting trip. 1t was the
first time | had ever seen Mr.. Whitney
and he introduced himself. He then
told of wintering at my headquarters
and told ME that Commander Peary
was up north and that he had spotted
my party over the ice. That was the
first / had heard of Peary being there.
We went to the supply house and
told Mr. Whitney l had been to the
pole. In discussing my route 1t oe-
Cured to me that, as Mr.. Whitney
expected a vessel to come for him, it
would be a good plan to send my doeu-
ments and instruments on his ship,
because of their greater safety Of
transport by water He readily agreed
to do so.
Each Has Set.
Mr. Whitney and myself put in two
days at the storehouse and then |
started for my final tramp To the port
where I could ship for civilization.
Now, one set of records is with Mr..
Whitney and another set with myself
While delayed on my trip south from

When / handed over TO Mr.. Whitney

"The manuscripts and instructions in
