Governors Of Explorers Club
Silently Strike Him From

DOCTOR NEVER REACHED
TOP OF MT. M'KINLEY
Committee, After Searching Invcsti-
CATION Finds Cook Practiced Fraud
Upon Club and Upon Public-Ac-
ton Independent From Arctic Con-
trOversy-Cook Lied Repeatedly
BarriIl's Testimony Disregarded--
Prints Likewise.

New York, Dec. 25.-The board
OF governors of the Explorers club
met yesterday in executive session,
and standing in silence voted with
bowed heads that DR.. Frederick A.
Cook be dropped from the rolls of the
club, for frauds practiced on its mem
bers and on the public.
Coming hard upon the heels of the
crushing verdict lately rendered by
the University of Copenhagen. the ac-
ton of the Explorers club is the result
of independent investigations which
in no way touched upon the polar
controversy, and the weight of its
disapproval thus becomes cumulative.
Preliminary to its vote of expulsion
the board met to pass upon the re-
port of its committee which has been
investigating the validity of DR.. Cooks
report that he reached the top of
Mount Mckinley. This committee. T.
concluding an exhaustive report, sa 7:
"Dr Cooks claims that he ascended
to the summit of Mount Mckinley in
1906. be rejected by the Explorers
club as not worthy of credence.'
Cooks Lies Convict Him.
The committees recommendations
we're based on its finding that 'Dr.
cook had repeatedly ma jc statements
that have not been in accord with
facts. and that he had entered into
agreements which he has failed to
Peep. and that the misstatements
and broken engagements deal not onlS
with matters appertaining to discov-
cry. but to ordinary transactions, 81
that no credence can he given to
statements made by him"
Among the seven signatures ap-
pended 10 this arraignment. are those
at Caspar Whitney ana Anthony Fialn
both personal friends of DR.. Cook
The committee is further explicit in
It's statement that ii undertook its
investigation only after first appris-
ing DR.. Cook of its purposes. which
he approved in person, and that IL
has disregarded entirely the testi-
mony of Edward Barrill, DR. Cooks
guide and of Frederick Printz, his
packer-although such testimony was
before them-because it wished nc
cloud of partisan contention. or ques-
tion of financial interest to dim the
integrity of its verdict.

IN THEIR DEMANDS

Agree 10 Take Men Back AS They
Find Room for Them-Switchmen
Demand Simultaneously Re-em-
ployment of Whole Body.

St. Paul. Mimi, Dec. 25.-OIily one
obstacle remains in the way of a
settlement of the switchmen's strike
in the northwest as the result of the
conference between railroad officials
and the representatives of the. rail-
way council of the American Feder-
alton OF Labor N Governor Eberhart's
office. Both sides are agreed on all
questions except the time when all
striking switchmen shall be taken
back to work.
The ra lroads offered to take back
as many of the strikers Immediately
as they have places for and then re-
employ the others just as soon as
places can be made vacant. 1t was
suggested that it may take thirty days
before al, f the men could be put
pack to work, but President Hawley
of the switchmen's union said he
would agree to nothing short of SIM
ultaneous unemployment of all the
men.
Governor Eberhart is trying to OBJ
tain a concession from the railroads
on this point, and he announced this
evening t1dI olANeRoS
taken steps to reach some agreement,
The striking switchmen agreed to SUBJ
nit the controversy TO arbitration and
abide by the decision of the board
now being organized in Chicago 10
settle the dispute between the Chicago
lines and their switchmen. The con-
cessions demanded by the Twin City
and Chicago switchmen are identical.
The rate of pay pending The outcome
of the Chicago proceedings will be
that in effect November l. If the
Chicago conference results in an in
crease in wages, the lines here will
put ii into effect.
President Hawley, of the switch
mems union last night, said:
There will be no agreement to tea
inmate the strike unless the companies
agree that every man that went out
on strike will be reinstated to posi-
tions occupied before the strike began,
and that without prejudice
