COOK JUMPS
 OPPONENTS STATES THAT MONEY WAS USED TO GET THE MT. M'i<iNLEY
 AFFlDAVlTS.
Thinks That His Opponents Are Cor rupt--Was Loudly AppIauded
 by the Audience.

Hamilton, Mont, Oct. 2S.-Dr. Fred erick A. Cook, in an address here to. night, denounced the tactics of his opponents as unfair and defended his claims of having ascended Mount Nc Kinley He declared money was used corruptly in obtaining certain affidav- it's against him.
 This is the home of Edward N. Bar Till, who made sworn statement that Dr. Cook never reached the sum nit of Mount Mckinley. The explor- CT was enthusiastically received, how. ever, and his address was generously applauded.
 Dr. Cook assured his many hearers that he would go mp the mountain again and obtain proofs that he had made the first ascent
 At the conclusion of Dr. Cooks ad- dress. Counsel for Barrill and Printz, the guides. arose and questioned the explorers declaration that he reached the top of Mount Mckinley. Follow ing this J. H. Durston. editor of the Anaconda Standard. introduced a res oution criticising Dr. Cook and up holding the two guides. This resolu- ton was not adopted and a substitute of non-commital character was pre- sented by United States eSnator Jos .enr M Dixon of Missonla
 The debate on the resolution was hot
 Edward N. Barrill Swas brought to the platform during the excitement and said a few wrods in such a iuw tone he could not be heard by the audience. pr. Cook repeated his de. claration that he had sealed the Alas. kan peak and said he would sign an affidavit to 1t.

KOREANS OF PROMINENCE HAD ENCOURAGED AssASslNA-
 TON OF PRINCE.
Report That Japan Win confiscate Property and Sweep Koreans Into Sea, Has Caused Much
 Comment at Seoul.

Seoul, Oct. 2S.--H is evident from the attitude of considerable section of the Korean population that the assassination of Prince Ito was not rnpleasing.
 Thos comprising this section repre- sent the element which Is now depIiy- cd of opportunities formerly offered here and they are agitating for furth- CT violence.
 Viscount Sone, the Japanese resident general in Korea, is much disturbed by the reports coming in regarding the attitude of some of the officials and others who were formerly closely connected with the court of the em- percr.
 It is now believed that the plot was matched in Seoul, and the closest in- vestigation is proceeding to discover the instigators of Prince Itos murder It is said there is reason 10 believe that several prominen Koreans, while not actually privy to the assassination lent themselves to a secret agitstlon, and encouraged the people in general in the opinion that the sympathy of foreign countries would be extended to them if the situation were 1orcibly brought to their attention.
 It is now known that secret socie- ties existed to spread the propaganda that Prince Ito's outward friendship for Korea was merely a blind.
 The report was also widely circu- lated that Japan proposed to conns- cate the property of all Koreans, de- pose the emperor and drive the peo- pie into the sea.
 The palace of the president general Is strongly guarded day and night. A decided feeling of unrest pervades Korea and it is feared that the assas- slnation will be followed up by an act i've movement looking to general uprising in the hope of intercession by the United tSates or some other pow CT to precent the further absorption of Korea's sovereignty by Japan.
 The ten Koreans arrested at Har- bin will be vigorously examined, with vie wto discovering the instigators of the plot, of whom it is believed ;ne assassin was merely the tool De- tectives engaged in the case are us- ing their utmost energies and there is reason to believe there will be inn portant developments in the near fu- ture.
 It can be confidently stated how ever, that the best element among the Koreans and a vast majority of the people are still loyal to the memory of Prince Ito and it is net considered possible that the agitation will he sue eassfrl iii -insettiifig the country to any great extent, especially in view of the announced intention of Japan not to change the policies promulgat- ed by Ito.

Cook Makes Affidavit.

When Barrill in a low voice de. clared pr. Cooks statement regarding the Mount Mckinley affair was incor- rect. the explorer replied b yasseTting to Barrill's face that the latter's state. ment was false.
 The excitement at this point was in, tense. BarriIl answered by demand. ing to know why Cook did not make an affidavit to that effect that he had sealed Mount Mckinley.
 The challenge hao no sooner been issued than it was accepted by the doctor and an affidavit was made by the explorer on the platform in the nrerence Of the audience, in which he declared he sscended Mount Mckinley and that Barrill was with him at the time and that the records of his ascen were left at the summit of the peak.
