Not Within Thousand Miles
of Mckinley, Declares Fay

MEDFORD. Mass, October 16.-In am
plif1cation Of q brief denial made last
night to a published statement that a
letter. said to have been written by Prof
Charles e. Fay of Tufts College to Prof
w. III. Carmalt OF Yale, had announced
the discovery Of DR.. Cooks records on
the summit Of Mount Mckinley. Prof.
Fay said today that he had never been
within 1900 miles Of Mount Mckinley.
Prof. Fay said also he has never writ
ten a letter to Prof. Carmalt
In a magazine article written by him
and published last June, Prof. Fay said,
mention was made Of Mount Mckinley,
and DIR. Cook was credited with having
climbed to the summit. Aside from this,
Prof. Fay knows of no reason for his
name being drawn into the controversy.

ALIENS IN HOSPITAL.
Expense Under Certain Conditions
Charged to Steamship Companies.

Charged TO steamship Companies.
Robert ]. Tracewell. Controller of the
Treasury. rendered a decision today
holding that steamship companies
should be required to pay the expenses
incurred in the treatment in hospital
OF aliens who are detained. for treat
ment for a disease not of a contagious
or quarantinable nature with which
they are afflicted on arrival, and which
does not necessarily render the aliens
inadmissible.1
The steamship companies contended
that the hospital expense should be
paid out of the appropriation author
lied by the sundry civil act, March 4,
1909. The steamship companies have
after to pay the bills, and it is likely
that the matter will be carried into the
courts. The expense Of maintaining
aliens detained at the port of New York
last year amounted to over $4,000.
about 80 per cent Of which applied to
cases Of the character mentioned.
The controller says: ITO hold that
the expense of furnishing hospital
treatment to aliens who are sick when
they arrive is proper charge against
the appropriation. the expenses of reg
ulatinx immigration would. in effect,
make the alien a public charge imme-
diately upon arrival"
The controller points out that among
the class Of aliens who are expressly
excluded by the immigration laws are
persons liable to become a pubic
charge"

N. Barri1l. the guide who says he did
not attain the summit of Mount Nc
Kinley, and, finally, to crown the day,
fired the shot which started a twenty
four-hour automobile race at Brighton
Beach
He will remain in New York until Sun
day night, when he will start for the west

time he will confer with counsel over the
ACCESSIBILITY of bringing action against

men and the Arctic Club of America.

Before the honor was bestowed, Presi-
dent MCGOWAN of the board announced:
II deem it fair to DR.. Cook to say here
that he wanted this action by the board
of aldermen postponed until after all his
proofs had been produced We de-
clined. because it was believed that the
sentiment of the board was belief in Dr.
Cook. And I believe that the city of
New York believes in him.
This statement was greeted with cheers
In his speech DR.. Cook said. in part:
This is the prOudest moment of my
life. To feel that you have confidence
in me in the face Of the unfounded state
ment and against the false affidavit pub
lished during the last few days creates
a feeling of pride in me that my coun-
trymen believe my word.
Il will substantiate every claim I have
made with every proof within the power
of man.
1.-The charges brought against me rela-
tive to my polar trip have been based
upon evasive answers by my loyal Es-
kimo friends The alleged affidavit OF

MANDS ACTION. #.a1,.as..

Elkhart, Ind, May Presidents OF
this city are deeply interested in a
mysterious shooting which | occurred
at the home of Miss Lenorag Lewiston.
H. l.. Roeder, 10 years old had been
calling upon the young woman against
the wishes of her parents, II is claimed
and opposition to him is slid to have
grown bitter, Roeder having recently
been told not to appear At the house
again. Yesterday morning he disre-
garded the Injunction andIwas met at
the door by a brother Of Miss Lewis
ton, who says that he invited Roeder
in and later went to get him drink
of water.
Turns Away; Rsedef Dies.
Young Lewiston hah hardly turned
away, he says, when be heard a pistol
shot and found Roefer dead with a
bullet in his heart. On the floor near
Roeder's side lay revolver with one
chamber empty wheh officers reached
the scene.
John Roeder, father Of the young
man, declared that the weapon did not
belong to his son. This statement was
confirmed few minutes later by find
ing Roeder's revolver at his home.
Lewiston denies all knowledge Of the
weapon and the father of Roeder re-
fuses to accept a theory of suicide and
has demanded that the coroner make
a thorough Investigation.
Deny All knowledge Of Revolver.
Relatives of Lewiston declare they
never saw the revolver found at Roe
der's side until officers exhibited it.
Miss Lewiston was in an upper room
when Roeder called and had not de-
scended to the parlor when the fatal
shot was fired. The coroner believes
that the establishment Of the owner
ship of the revolver will solve the mys-
terious shooting and is directing his
efforts to that end.

Great Lakes. From 5000 to 1900
seaman of all classes will be involved

unions affiliated with the Lake Sea-
mans union. resolved overwhelming
ly in favor of strike.
Cause Of Strike.
The lake strike was caused. the I'M
ion officials say, by the officers of the
Lake Carriers association refusing to
meet the representatives of the seamen
and talk over conditions Of employ
ment for the coming navigation sea-
son. The seamen charge that the YES
sci owners have declared for the open
shop and have adopted plan to keep
track of every employee on the lakes
This plan, according to the seamen.
constituted a well regulated blacklist.
On the other hand, the vessel own
ers, through President Livingston OF
the Lake Carriers Association. say
that there are few union seamen on the
lakes and that only a small number
will strike.
