Expelled from Membership in Brooklyn
Art and Science Institute.

New York, Jan. 4.-Dr. Frederick A.
Cook must strike off another item from
the list of his scientific honors and this
time the blow comes from the folks at
home. The council OF the Brooklyn
Institute of Arts and Sciences, it was
announced today, has voted that the
discredted explorer be dropped from
membership. The action was unani-
nous and the dismissal is summary.
Dr. Cook was a member of the exc
cutive committee of the department of
geography and until his polar claims
were more or less shattered in Copen-
hagen, he had been held in high esteem
by the members of the institute. He
lectured to its members on his Polar
discovery" soon after returning to
America.
While. so far as known no particular
effort is being made to discover DR..
Cooks whereabouts. it was learned to-
day. incidentally that he has not yet
drawn on the $4,000 letter of credit
which he obtained in New York before
disappearing from public view. The
$4,000 part Of the money which he
made out Of his lecture tour remains in
the vaults of a New York trust COM
pany.

and at other places in the city at the
same hour the temperature dropped as
low as 10 degrees below. At $50 the
Burns thermometer indicated degrees
below, which was the greatest depres-
sion reached during the morning At
ter that hour the temperature rose
slowly and at II o'clock the same Their
mometer indicated degrees above
zero, which was the highest point
reached during the day. At noon the
temperature had fallen to 3 degrees
above zero and at 2 o'clock in the af-
ternocn it had passed the zero mark

THE TOBACCO CASE
Prosecution Closes and Defence Opens
Its Argument.

Washington. Jan. 4-After addressing
the supreme court for almost three hours
and half in the Tobacco Trust case,
Special Assistant Atty. Gen. McReynolds
concluded his argument in prosecution of
the case today. He was followed by Atty
Delaney Nicol of New York, who spoke in
behalf of the Tobacco Company
Mr. McReynolds contended that the
whole tobacco industry was in the control
OF the trust. If. he said. the tobacco
company could not be reached under the
Sherman law It would be impossible to
prevent monopoly, with the result that
the fancied security against extortion and
wrong under which the American people
lived would be myth.
Mr.. Nicol pointed out what he charged
were Misrepresentation on the part of
the prosecution. He said that the gov
eminent had proceeded on the theory that
the existence of the American Tobacco
Co. was Injurious alike to producers. con-
sumers and dealers, whereas he asserted
that there had been no increase in the
price to tobacco consumers, nor damage
to any class.
He quoted from the judges in the court
below statements to the effect that not
only had there been no enhancement of
the price OF tobacco but new enterprises
had been begun and had thrived since
the organization of the tobacco COMPANY.
He also undertook to show that sc. 900
additional acres of land had been devoted
70 the growth of tobacco in that period
md said that one Of the judges of the
lower court had stated that the record in
this case had shown that the tobacco bus
mess had been free from coercion and OPP
preston. such as are incidental to most
lines of business. Mr. Nicol also said that
the record would show that the Ameri-
can Tobacco Co. does not control the to-
bacco lands nor purchase more than one
half OF the tobacco crops.
