Financial BacEer Says Explorer Had
Plenty Of Supplies.
New York, Sept. 4.--Instead OF set
ting out on his North pole quest hur-
riedly and with scant preparation, as
the first reports indicated, DR.. Cook
sat about the task with the utmost
foresight and carried with him enough
provisions TO meet almost any emer-
gency that might have occurred, ac-
cording to John r. Bradley, the man
who hacked the explorer and who took
him to the starting point in his con-
verted steamer the John r. Brad
ley.
At the base of supplies at Annortok.
on the northwest coast OF Greenland.
Bradley says Cook had enough pro-
visions to last three years. There were
tons of pemmican. sugar, tea, coffee,
canned goods. dried meats, great GUAM
titues of hickory for sled building.
hardware, iron, steel, copper cooking
utensils of all kinds, $50 feet of stove
pipe, 10000 boxes OF matches. bales of
biscuits, 10000 cans of food, $50 GAL
Ions of alcohol. barrel cf gum drops
for the sweet-toothed Eskimos barrels
of rice and -four. guns for trading with
the natives, beads and trinkets Of all
kinds and several boxes of finest
scientific apparatus.
Il wish / had an inventory of the
supplies" said Bradley, for then you
could see just how expensive our prep
arations were. 1t took thirteen hours
to land our supplies. including forty
tons Of coal.
AS to the scientific instruments car
ried by DR.. Cook, Bradley said he was
hardly competent to speak as he knew
nothing about their quality.
Il paid the bills for them" he said,
and judged by what they cost they
evidently were the best that could be
had. The whole matter was left to
DR.. Cook and he had several boxes of
Instruments. AS to what the expedi-
tion cost, that is private matter, but
there is absolutely no bases for the
charge that it was cheapIy conducted.
1t cost thousands and thousands of
dollars.

camp in the state. The name selected
for the camp is Camp Frederick Keye.

GERS were selected:

The following appointive officers

The quartermaster corresponds to
the treasurer Of Their organizations,
while the adjutant is the secretary or
official mouthpiece of the commander.
Camp Frederick Keye, No. /, will
meet regularly the second Friday of
each month at s o'clock p. m. The
selection of suitable quarters was left
with Commander Fraser. The next
regular meeting will be held the sec
ond Friday in October at Co. B.
armory.
The camp will affiliate with the ma
tional association of Spanish Ameri-
can War Veterans and from the en-
thusiasm developed at the organiza-
ton session Of Camp Frederick Keye
there is every indication that IT will
be a healthy prosperous adjunct to
the national body.
An interesting co-incident yester-
day afternoon was the fact that the
national officers of the u. S. A. w. ".
passed through the city on the N. p.
bound for the national encampment
at Tacoma, which opens there Mon
day, Sept. 6. Among those in the
party were, National Commander
Newton and Adj Gen. III. H. Sanders
Of the national organization with
headquarters at Boston There were
many other national and state officers
from the east accompanied by their
ladies comprising three cars attached
to the regular train These will be
entertained by the Montana camp at
Helena today and from there proceed
to Tacoma by special train.
A delegation of the prospective
members OF Fargo's camp met the
officers at the train and this meeting
proved to be very beneficial in as
sisting in the organization last night.

NEUROLOGICAL
p. 3. HiIIyer Dead.

A letter from Mrs. Mary A. Hillyer
reports the death OF her husband at
the soldiers home, Minneapolis, on
Aug. IL, and the burial at Byron, MINI.
a few days later. Mrs Hnlyer says
she will not go back to the home TO
live but will remain in Rochester in
definitely. Mr.. Hillyer was "a years
old when he died. having been born
in 1915, and he suffered the past six
teen years of his life overwhelmingly,
being both blind and deaf Philetus
B. Hillyer was married in 1888 to Miss
Eleanor Smith; they had seven chill
dren, all dead but one daughter. In
1855 he married Mary A. Town, who
now survives him, but who is very
decrepit, having to move about with
crutches. Mr.. Hillyer was in the
civil war from 1852 to 1855 and has
been a member of the I. o. o. f. since
1857. He was also a member of the
first post of G.. A. r. at Rochester

u. $. MAY NOT CLAIM POLE.
Has Never Asserted Rights to Other
Discovered Tracts.


Discovered Tracts.
Washington, Sept 4-State depart
ment officials are of the opinion that
II is of little consequence to the Unit
ed States what lands DR.. Cook has dis
covered on his way to the North pole,
SO far as actual territorial possession
is concerned.
1t is recalled by the department off,
Gals that ever since 1928 American
ex plorers in both the Arctic and Ant
arctic have discovered vast ereas Of
land to which no claims were ever
made. Admiral Wilkes sound in the
Antarctic territory OF more than 1O0,-
90 square miles in area. and DR.. Kane
made large discoveries In the arctic
but no effert has ever been made by
the United States to assert its right to
them. General Greedy. several years
ago. located lands which never before
were known to exist.
Many Of the worlds great naviga-
tors, from time to time, made the dis
coveries to which no claim was ever
made. The principal reason for this.
however, is said to be that these lands.
in every instance. were almost mac
cessible and absolutely Of no value.
The islands of Soitzbergen, which
were discovered many years ago, are
still without a recognized owner. On
the maps these islands are designated
as belonging to Russia, but her claim
II ever asserted, has never been recog-
nized. These islands are not only ac-
cessible, but have developed some
thriving industries and only within
the last very few years has any EFFORT
been made te exercise over them
any jurisdiction of authority.
