Mr.. Gehring also said that at en-
rollment time last year several Tam

acting under instructions from Four
teenth street, had enrolled themselves
as members of the Independence
League. These men had a false bal
lot printed, inscribed with the name
of the Independent League, but the

teemen similar to those on the Tam

viously enrolled under the standard of
the independence League.
In many of the districts this bogus
ballot was voted early by the men
who had been instructed to do SC, and
when the voters of the independence
League appeared and cast their ballots
they were informed they had already
voted.
1t is also charged by Mr.. Gehring
that Tammany inspectors had permit

PEARY MISTAKEN
Never Saw SIedges--TheY Were Made
Into Bows and Arrows

New York, Sept. 27.-Cook ten int

reply to the most material charges by
Peary.
Said he, "Peary says my sledges we. e

remainder were used to make bows

The ice there is exit emely rough, ana
there is a good deal of water, subject
ing the instruments to an en- irely I'M
necessary risk when Whitney ava ted
the ship upon which he expected to re-
turn direct to America.
"As to the charge that I found NJ
trace of Peary's records at Cape Thorn
as Hubbard, the point which Peary
would call Cape Hubbard is a Iolna
promontory. From Peary's map | am
unable to locate Cape Hubbard. | d
not known Peary left any records
there.
Other points have been replied to in
detail. l will answer everything in the
most formal way in writing when
Peary publishes his other points"
Cook, in a lecture tonight at Car
negie Hall, added no essential fact to
the narrative.
Harry Whitney" he said asked me
TO entrust to him as a special favor tie

argued that his return journey would
be shorter and smoother by water
than the distance overland and ice
that remained for me before | rea h
ed civilization. For that reason l add
ed the flag to my instruments and
certain records"
Cook said he took ten Eskimos with
him. Eight of these he truned back
reserving two, with tw~enty-six dogs
and two sledges, for his last dash.
The lantern slides with which the
lecture was illustrated added convlc-
ton to his descriptions Of the surpris-
ing smoothness Of the ice.
Tonight, in giving credit to the ex-
plorers who preceded him, Cook for Il e
first time emitted the name of Peary.
Portland, Maine, Sept. H. In an
interview here today Peary said he
does not believe Cook left records, in
struments or flags with Whitney, and
does not consider It conceivable that
Whitney could have had any valuable
instruments or documents of Cooks.
