Henson received telegram from Peary
in which the commander ordered the
negro not to use any of the photographs
Henson had made In the arctic. This
message came as climax to a day full
of anxiety for Brady and his lecturer.
Henson turned over all his original mega
tives, 100. to DR.. II. c. Bumpus. superin-
tendent of the American Museum of
Natural History. on his arrival in New
York on the Roosevelt. Dr. Bumpus had
set Of stereopticon slides made for
Henson from these negatives
When Henson yesterday morning tried
to induce DR.. Bumpus to give him the
original negatives, the later showed a
letter he had received from Peary Or
dering him to send all Henson's mega
tives to the commander for Inspection
DIR. Bumpus assured Henson he would
not obey this order. but, until Henson
ownership to the negatives was salts
factorily proved. he would not give them
up to Henson either.
DIR. Bridgman, introducing Henson, de-
clared his unqualified admiration for the
man whose rifle once saved Peary from
death beneath a charging musk OK. and
whose heroism was second only to the
man he served so loyalty for more than
a score Of years.
