HISTORIAN DENIES

LONDON, October 31.-The claims
Of DR.. Frederick A. Cook to discovery
Of the North Pole were credited yes
terday by J. Gordon Hayes. polar his
torian, with as much accuracy as
those of Admiral Robert E. Peary.
In his book, THE Conquest of the
North Pole" published yesterday,
Hayes said many of Cooks statements
may be accepted as genuine and
truthful"
Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd and
Floyd Bennett were said by Hayes to
have been the first persons actually
to reach the Pole.
Admiral Peary," Hayes said never
was within so or more miles from the
North Pole. There have been many
critics of Peary's claim on both sides
of the Atlantic, and all disinterested
inquirerS have come to the same con-
clusion-that he didn't reach the Pole;
by this it may be understood he never
was within so or more miles or its
position. " Peary said he returned
from his camp at the Pole to latitude
81 degrees, At minutes north, in no
more than 56 hours. This is a dis
tance of $50 statute miles, apart from
the Cieviations over pack ice and drift
ing foes. Hence, man SO years old
