Lying Again.

Frederick A. Cook is not the
first explorer to have come near
to death by starvation or freez-
ing, but he is the first ore to
have made it the excuse for de-
eeption Of the most despicable
character.
There is no occult Psychology
in Cooks confession; it is an
other fake Of the sordid type,
made possible by a public athirst
for cheap sensation and a maya
zine with eye-single to the main
chance.
Cook S assertion that he ascend.
ed to the top Of Mt. Mckinley
has been proved false by Pro
lessor Parker, Not only has he
lied about his own exploits, but
he robbed another, Peary, OF
much Of the acclaim due that dis
tinguished explorers splendid
achievement. He faxed a North
Pole discovery story, and now he
is taking the fake.
There are no words strong e
nough to characterize the hon.

two plans 1or further procedure. One
Is an appeal to the appellate or SUI

the higher court, Healy says. could only
pass upon the Judgment Of costs. leav-
ing the merits Of the matter undecided.
The other way directs a review by a
writ OF error which in the opinion Of
Attorney Healy should be from the su-
preme court.
Attorney Healy's report reviews the
proceedings In the Chicago court and
says: tx

swered from criticism of the bill to at
tack "the American Publishers Asso-

lied the bill as a "cowardly" measure
and lacking love Of country and
brought forth at the demand Of "the

He said that congress would not be
