the end of July. I informed MT. Har- riman's American physicians that the conditions did not indicate that an op- eration was hopeless. I hastened MT. Harriman's departure homeward.''
 Prof. Struenlpel's diagnosis given to the United Press was so complete that Dr. Biggar, the Cleveland physician of John D. Rockefeller, gave it as his opinion that Hartman was undoubt- edly suffering from cancer. Prof. Struempel made no mention of can- Ger in his diagnosis, but Dr. Biggar said that the treatment prescribed could be for nothing else.
 One of the Hartman automobiles met the il o'clock train on the Erie at Turner and took, three New York business men to Arden House. The men waved the newspaper men aside and refused to give their names. The chauffeur said, however, that the men were business associates of Harri- man.
 The maid of Mrs. Robert Gerry and her husbands valet, with a big steam CT trunk, were brought down to the station early today and took an Erie train for New York, where they go to members of the Hartman family.
 At Arden House today are ex-Judge R. S. Lovett, Harriman's counsel and Charles A. Peabody, president of the Mutual Life.
 Wcrkmen began today the work of digging the grave in which MT. Harri- man will be buried The Hartman plot in the Arden cemetery is prac- tically solid rock and blasting was necessary to pierce the stone. Four men with drills and explosives began work within a few feet of the grave of Harriman's first son, who died sev- eral years ago. A special casket, made of metal, of the type known as the Mckinley casket, has been ordered from New York and is expected. here h iS of

 A great crowd gathered at the station to witness the departure of the world-famed explorer and the farewell accorded him was almost as enthusiastic as the reception of last Saturday.
 The doctors car was filled with flowers and fruits. As the train pulled out. a great cheer rose.
 Dr. Cooks hasty determination submitting his data to the Inter national Bureau of Polar EXplora- tion at Brussels, has disappointed many of his friends, who hoped that he would get the endorsement of the Brussels organization before returning home. The doctors enc mies-what few he has in this city intimate that he is afraid to sub init to the test of the Information al Bureau. Cooks host of friends, however. say his early return home is in order to be on the ground when Commander Peary reaches the United States.

Friends and relatives Of Frofes1sur Ross G. Marvin, the young scientist of Cornell university. are at a loss to understand why Commander Peary dzd not mention in his first dispatches the. fact that Professor Marvin had been, drowned. The young mans age4 mother had received no tidings of he1 son since last October until in a newX dispatch Commander Peary reported that the scientist had lost his life. Marvin was a native of Elmira, NJ Y., and in his boyhood was poor, but by pluck and energy he earned a col legiate scholarship and reached high rank as a scientist. So reliable was he that Peary made him chief scien- tist of the expedition and placed him in command of his supporting party. He was thirty years of age.
