GOES NORTH
To PROVE
CLAIMS
Cook, With Financial Back
er, En- Route to
Etah.

Copenhagen, Sept. 15.-The Danish
steamer Hans Egede arrived here to-
day with the news that John R.
Bradley, the financial hacker of
Cooks north pole expedition, was on
his way to Etah to secure the much
talked of records and instruments
which Cook has said he left at that
Eskimo settlement northeast of
Greenland. The captain of the
schooner thinks that Cook is with
Bradley, but gives no particular rea-
son for thinking so. The Hans
Egede, which is the vessel on which
the explorer travelled to civilization,
fell in with yacht at Goldhaven,
a Danish settlement on the south
coast of Discovery island, Greenland,
and in the course of exchanges the
master learned that Bradley was
aboard the other craft. The polar
hunt promoter admitted his identity
and explained that he was bound for
Etah to recover whatever had been
left there by Cook. He refused,
however, either to deny or confirm
the report that he was accompanied
by the explorer. A government YES
sci also brings information that two
missionaries who were working
among the Eskimos who accom-
panied Cook on this expedition say
these Eskimos insist that the doctor
reached the north pole, as he claim
ed, prior to it's discovery by Com
mander Peary.

ALL REPUBLICANS LOOK ALIKE TO TAFT
President Says No Patron
age Shall Be Withheld on
Account of insurgency.

Beverly, Mass, Sept. 15.-No diff
ference between the so-called pro
gressives' and regulars will be
recognized by President Taft here
after, but all party leaders will be
treated alike as republicans in mat
ters of federal support. The presi-
dents views to this effect are given
in letter from Secretary Norton to
a republican leader of Tacoma whose
name is not disclosed.
In the letter Norton stated that
while important republican legisla-
ton pending in congress was opposed
by certain republican leaders, the
president felt that his duty required
from senators and representatives
who seemed to occupy position
the party platform. This attitude on
the part of the president ended,
however, with the more recent pri-
mary elections and nominating con-
ventions in which the people have
declared themselves. The president
now looks on ''progressives' and
regulars alike as republicans and
as such entitled to his support and
the support of the party at the fall
elections. Norton's letter says this
must settle the question whether the
differences of the last session of
congress shall be perpetuated or
forgotten.

merce Will Leave Sound City September 90 Trip
Will Be in Special Train and Will Last Four and
One Half Days This Mathematics on Itinerary

The Seattle chamber of commerce
trade excursion party will visit We
natchee on it's journey over the state.
Secretary George w. Coburn, of the
Commercial club, while in Seattle
last week put in some good work to
have Wenatchee included in the itin-
erary. The trip demands that the ex-
cursion will have to back-track in
order to take in all the points de-
sired. The train will consist of four
Pullman palace sleepers, two diners
and an observation car, with all the
facilities for comfort and convent
ence, and will leave Seattle Monday
evening, September &C.
The itinerary embraces southwest
ern Washington. including Aberdeen,
Hoquiam, Centralia, Chehalis, Olym-
pia, thence by way of the Great
Northern railway to Wenatchee and
intermediate points as far as Spo-
kane, and returning on the Northern
Pacific railway via Spokane, Kenne-
wick, Walla Walla, North Yakima
and Ellensburg. An entire day will
be spent at North Yakima at the
state fair.
The trip is made with the idea of
influencing trade relations in favor
of Seattle. 1t is the plan to have
the party entertained by the Com
mercial club in this city. The Seat

RAILWAY MEN IN
CITY SUNDAY
Passenger Agents and Men
of Demonstration Train
Will Number 100.

Wenatchee will belong to the rail-
road men next Sunday. But for the
fact that it is the Sabbath there is
no question that some kind of a re-
ception would be arranged for their
benefit. The regular monthly meet
ing of the passenger agents of the
Spokane division will take place, and
in addition to these men the mem
bers of the demonstration train will
be in attendance at the meeting.
The commercial club rooms have
been turned over to Agent Piper for
use by the railroad men, and he is
arranging to take them out over the
valley in automobiles. 1t is hoped
they will carry away such pleasant
recollections of the visit to Wenat-
chez that all will speak kind word
for this city and valley whenever &C.
casion arises.

CR|PPEN IS VERY
COOL
But His Companion, Ethel
Leneve, is Mentally and
Physically Distressed.

London, Sept. 15.-Testifying at
the resumption today of the Crippen
murder trial, Prof Augustus ]. Pep
per, pathologist of the University of
London, said his examination had
convinced him that the human parts
found in the cellar of the HilldrOp
Crescent home were severed by a
hand skilled in surgery and directed
by a mind that possessed real
knowledge of anatomy.
The evidence of the medical eX-
perts has been awaited with eager
ness, and the famous little courtroom
in Bow street was crowded to its
capacity. The prisoners in the dock
presented contrasting appearance.
DR.. Hawley H. Crippen. who is
charged as the principal in the MUIR
der of his wife, Belle Elmore. the
! American actress, was seemingly as
cool and collected as ever. He did
not miss a word of testimony and
| eagerly whispered to his solicitor
Arthur Newton, whenever he
thought he had detected a point in
his favor.
On the other hand, Ethel Claire
Leneve, accused as an accessory
after the act, was wan and plainly in
| nh icfr Thc
police authorities had expected that
the day would be a trying one for
her and she was attended for the
first time in court by wardress
who sat close to her throughout the
proceedings.

witness called by the prosecution
At considerable length he described
the examination which he made OF

fled pieces of flesh as belonging to

Colonel Roosevelt spent several
hours in talking with James B. Rey-

over the labor plank in the state

labor conditions.
New York Primaries Crafty.

Colonel Roosevelt was asked about
recent reports that he might accept
the state craftsmanship and that an
effort might be made to force the
nomination for governor on him. He
said there was no possibility of such
thing and added that he could say
nothing more than he had said on
his return from Europe three months
ago and had repeated since in dozens
of letters, that he could not under
any circumstances accept either the
state craftsmanship or the guberna-
torial nomination.
Colonel Roosevelt would not say
whether he would accept the tempo,

RAILROAD CONSTRUCTION
EQUIPMENT WITHDRAWN
Great Northern Has Issued Orders to Move Entire
Equipment From Okanogan Territory Within Next
Month-Will Be Transported to Canadian Branch
Running North From Oroville- Grading Completed

Orders have been received by the
Columbia & Okanogan Steamboat
company to transport all the equip
ment of the railroad construction
now in the upper country to Wenat-
chez. This will be done within the
next 80 to so days. The equipment
will then be shipped via Spokane and
the Spokane Falls & Northern to
Oroville.
The object of this move is evil
IDENTIFY to begin work at once on the
branch line from Oroville to Pentic-
ton, distance of 40 or SO miles.
The grant from the crown for this
extension expires on January /, and
the Canadian government is not slow
about enforcing the law in matters
of this kind.
Speculation is rife regarding the
effect of withdrawing the entire
construction equipment from the
Wenatchee-Oroville territory at this
time. The grading work is now prac-
tically completed from Pateros north
but no orders have been placed for
bridge material so far as can be
learned. The task of bridging the
stream and ravines will require much
time before steel can be laid.
The fact is also apparent that the
equipment now being withdrawn
will be right at Oroville when the
branch to Penticton is completed. If
the work of laying steel from Oro-
vile south is begun next spring or
summer, the equipment can be
moved southwark over the new line
and be available for the work be-
tween Pateros and Wenatchee.
The concensus of opinion is that
the Great Northern is playing game
of strategy for the purpose of hold
ing the territory. To operate train
service in the Okanogan territory at
this time would be at loss. When
the orchards now planted and about
to be set out come into bearing
four years from now, that will be
one of the richest fields of profit to
a railroad anywhere in the country
Until that time comes, the tonnage
is insufficient to pay expenses
Naturally the railroad may be ex-
pected to delay the game as much
as possible.

FRAUDS IN

GOVERNOR OFFERS REWARD
Total of $3.50 to Be Paid In Case

Nashville, Nov. 30.-The efforts OF
the democratic state committee to bring
to justice the perpetrators and origina-
tors of the DeKalb county outrage,
where election returns were changed in
five districts 50 as to defraud Senator
N. l., Preston of his seat, bore fruit
when Gov Patterson offered rewards
totaling $3.50 for the arrest and convic-
ton of the guilty parties. State Chair
man Vertrees and his assistants at

ity, and they confidently believe the
rewards offered by the governor will
bear fruit. Developments that will
