not expect that its recent hero would
be branded as an lmposter.
The explorers and scientists have
almost lost faith in DR. Cooks hon

One OF his warmest supporters,
Knud Rasmussen, helped to frame the
report. The evening papers attack
Cook severely, especially for hiding
which they regard az sign Of
lguilty conscience.

Cooks claim that he made obser-
vations at SO degrees SO minutes 10
seconds near the pole proved immedi-
ately that he was bad observer, but
nothing Indicated that he was n
swindler. Now his papers convict him
Of being swindler. We examined
Cooks observations first, and agreed
unanimously that they were worthless.
Loose's observations were not used In
the papers Cook sent"
Prof Olufson, secretary of the
Danish Geographical Society, said:

testimony Of the Eskimos. But the
papers Cook sent are most impudent.
No school boy could make such calcu-
lations. 1t Is a most childish attempt
at cheating. DR.. Cook has killed him
self by his own foolish acts"
Commodore Hovgaard, the explorer,
lsaid:
| Although 1t is not proved that Dr.
