ter Around Pole.
COPENHAGEN. Sept. S. All Denmark
tonight Is awaiting the arrival of Dr.
Frederick A. Cook. A regal welcome
awaits the man whose announcement
from Lerwick on September 1 that he
had discovered the North Pole startled
the world.
The steamer Hans Egede. on which the
explorer Is returning from the frozen
North, passed Cape Skagen, the north
ern extremity of Denmark, at 2 o'clock
thl afternoon and Is expected to steam
In the Sound late tonight and to dock
here tomorrow morning.
Can Prove He Reached Pole.
Added Interest has been lent the occa
sion br the definite statement of Dr.
Cook In an Interview ofT Skagen today
that he Is able to submit data which
will prove beyond cavil that he has at
tained the goal which for centuries had
been the objective of explorers. He said
he was quite prepared to learn that Jeal
ous persons were endeavoring to cast
doubt upon his work, but that he stood
ready to give over his figures for a test
by any scientific authority.
No Land. Only Water, at Pole.
Dr. Cook told the correspondent that
he had seen nothing of the expedition of
Commander Peary.
He said there was no land at the Pole
only water, the depth of which he could
not gauge. "
The Danes will not be alone In welcom
ing Dr. Cook, for Copenhagen la filled
with visitors. A committee of the Royal
Geographical Society has chartered the
steamer M. G. ilelcholr and will proceed
out Into the Sound to meet the Hans
Etede.

Copenhagen to Banquet Him.
At a banquet tomorrow night, at which
Dr. Cook will be the guest of honor.
Lord Mayor Oldenburg will propose a
toast to President Taft and King Freder

C. Hansen will make a speech In honor
of Dr. Cook, and Commodore Hovgaard.
commander of the Danish Arctic Expe
dition of 1K82-J, will greet the American
and. on behalf of the Polar explorers,
congratulate him upon his success In
finding the Pole.
The Danish newspapers are full of
praise of the American enterprise which
made possible the trip of exploration of
Cook and express their delight at his
success. These articles are replete with
sympathetic references to the friendship
between the United States and Denmark.
. None of them expresses real doubt of the
truth of the discovery of the Pole and all
believe that Dr. Cook will be able to put
forward his proofs.
Will Breakfast With King.
King Frederick, of Denmark, has In
timated his desire to receive the trav

ranged to entertain him at luncheon.
Hundreds of telegrams from America
and all other parts of the world h-e
been received at the American Lega

The news that the Hans Egede had
passed Cape Skagen led to Increased
activity on the part of those prepar

flags.
The Stars and Stripes are being Inter
twined with the Danish ensigns.
ACHIEVEMENT WILL BE SPUR
Baldwin Believes Others Will Try to
Reach Pole.
NEW YORK, Sept. 1 Evelyn B. Bald
win, the Polar explorer and meteorolo
gist, expressed the opinion today that, far
from dlscourajrlng further effort. Dr.
Cook's achievement would prove a spur
to explorers, geographers and scientists.
Mr. Baldwin announced that he himself
was preparing for another attempt to
reach the Pole. "I expect to start soon."
he said. Tfe will proceed In a strong
vessel through Behring Strait and make
our ship faet In the Ice pack. Then we
hope to drift completely through the
Northern Ocean at the rate of two miles
a day. passing the polar point and coming
out south again somewhere between the
northeast coast of Greenland and Spltz
bergen. I expect to find land to the west
of Crockerland. We expect to take along
a dirigible balloon which will be useful
In making side trips.
I think the finding of the 3outh Pole."
continued Mr. Baldwin, "will prove an
easier task than the discovery of the
North Pole, "because It Is surrounded by a
continent, while the Arctic Ice is con
stantly shifting and breaking up."
MILLINERS DESIGN COOK HAT
Latest Creation Is Named for Daring
Explorer.
CHICAGO. Sept. 3. Dr. Cook, strug
gling against the blizzard blast of the
Great North, little thought of the fame
that was to be his when he reached
the top of the world! The newest fash
Ion in women'a hats has been named
"Dr. Cook.1' The Dr. Cook hat is sug
gestive of the polar regions. It seems
as high as the cartoonist's picture of
the pole, although in reality it Is only
two feet tall. It Is constructed of brown
fur. fuzzy and expensive. It Is Just
such a hat as the famous explorer
might have drawn over his head when
the wind blew cold, and It looks
massive and solid enough to furnish
forth a good soup In case of emer
gencies. Further heightening Its chilly
effect Is a snowlike spray or aigrette,
high up on the left side. The National
Association of Retail Milliners, in ses
sion here, is designer of the "Dr. Cook"
hat.

IN- SEPTEMBER, lWMI, Jl'ST AFTER HIS RETURN. FROM THE
ASCENT OK MOUNT M'KINLEV. . t
the Labrador coast. John R. Bradley,
the wealthy New York big-gam hunter,
who financed the expedition, now states
that this was not true, and that Dr.
Cook's expedition was perhaps the most
carefully planned of any previous polar
attempts. Mr. Bradley states that se
crecy was maintained as to the ultimate
object of the trip because, had Dr. Cook
failed, much unpleasant controversy
could be avoided. Not even the captain
of the schooner yacht which took the
party to the northwest coast of Green
land knew that he had a polar expedition
under way.
That the Journey to the Pole was well
planned is shown by the quantity and na
ture of the supplies which the schooner
yacht deposited on Greenland for Dr.
Cook. These included 10.O cans of pro
visions, many tons of dried meats. 10.000
boxes of matches, 50-10 gallons of gaso
line. 1000 gallons of alcohol, two barrels
of gum drops, which are currency with
the Eskimos instead of money, guns and
knives for trading, hickory lumber for
building sleds and sheds, and great quan
tities of staple groceries. In all there
were sufficient provisions to last the
party for three years.
An Item which indicates the care with
which the expedition was planned Is that
of reducing the weight on stoves. Other
polar expeditions carried brass or iron
stoves, which weighed from 12 to 15
pounds each. Dr. Cook's stoves were
made of aluminum and weighed only three
pounds each, thus each stove allowed the
carrying of about 12 pounds more of rro
vislons to the sled:
Dr. Cook's friends believe that wealth
awaits him through the writings which
he Is likely to publish, and through his
lectures. A well-known vaudeville man
ager in this city has already cabled to
Copenhagen, offering Dr. Cook J4000 a
week for 10 weeks to appear in his vari
ous vaudeville houses and lecture on his.
experiences.
The European agents of three other
vaudeville managers have been cabled In
structions to Copenhagen to meet Dr.
Cook and offer him a princely salary for
his lecture service.
Another result of Dr. Cook's discovery
may be that the land which he reports
having discovered will be called Cook's
land.
SHOULD BRING PEARY RECORDS
Commander's Wife Declares Cook
Followed Husband's Tracks.
SOUTH HARPS WELL, Maine. Svpt. 3.
"I have been expecting to hear this report
ever since Dr. Cook started for the Pole,"
said Mrs. Robert H. Peary, wife of the
explorer now In the Arctic, yesterday.
"If Dr. Cook has discovered the Pole,
he will have to bring back some of Mr.
Peary's records to prove he has been far.
ther north. The explorers must leave
writings In calrna for that purpose. Dr.
Cook may have found the going too good,
or may have gone by water and not had
time to stop for records. Of course the
cairn must be built on the land, for the
Ice, always moving, gives no support.
"I am surprised to hear that Dr. Cook
has been" able to do what Mr. Peary,
with his years of training and experience
could not do. According to the route laid
out by Dr. Cook, he must have followed
In Mr. Peary e tracks and should have
picked up the original records left by Mr.
Peary."
YALE'S REBUKE TO CHICAGO
Professors Say Judgment Should Be
Suspended Till Cook Returns.
NEW HAVEN, Sept. 3. The report
that Chicago professors disbelieve' that
Dr. Frederick A. Cook discovered the
North Pole called forth criticisms by Di
rector Chittenden of the Sheffield Scien
tific School, whose guest Dr. Cook has
often been, and by Professor Brewer, who
accompanied Dr. Cook on one of his Arc
tic trips.
Professor Chittenden said:
"I think the stand taken by these pro
fessors is manifestly unfair and is cer
tainly uncalled for. I think they should
wait at least until his return."
Professor Brewer said:
"I shall believe Dr. Cook until it Is
proved he did not reach the Pole."

the principal events of the Hudson-Fulton
celebration, if the explorer can be
persuaded to hasten his return so as
to reach New York In September. To this
end the Doard of directors of the Ex

HAS AMPLE MEANS OF PROOF
Captain Cagnl Says Man of Cook's
Daring Can;t Be Swindler.
ROME. Sept. S.-A correspondent of
the Tribune Interviewed Captain I'm
berto Cagni. president of the Interna
tional Polar Commission, and himself an
explorer or note", on his arrival today
at Gaeta aboard- the battleship Napoli.
Captain Cagni said what Dr. Cook had
done xaa a marvelous piece of enter
prise worthy of his faring. He be
lieved Dr. Cook would be capable of
scientifically proving, up to a certain
point, that he had reached the Pole, and
deolared that one who has the courage
to face the polar dangers cannot be a
man of bad faith.
"The Arctic explorer," said Captain
Cagni. "either must be a ' genuine
scientist or a swindler. Dr. Cook Is not
a swindler. His undertaking Is aston
ishing." Professor. Emanuelll. the astronomer,
points out that Dr. Cook must have wit
nessed the total eclipse of the sun
which was visible only from the' Pole
Just at the time he Is supposed to have
reached ft. This, the astronomer said,
would give him an opportunity to prove
scientifically that he had reached the
pole.

NEW YORK. Sept. 3. Rudolph
Francke, the last white man who saw
Dr. Cook before his final dash for the
Pole, today added his word of tribute to
his friend's achievement.
"Dr. Cook never made a statement he
could not prove' said Mr. Francke.
"From the first day I met Dr. Cooke I
was impressed with his perseverance. He
does not know what It means to quit.
His strength of pjrpose is wonderful.
Well Equipped for Dash'.
"When I left Dr. Cook 500 miles
from the Pole he was about ready to
make his final dash northward. With
hickory sledges of his own design,
with some of the best trained dogs In
the polar region and with a supply
of carefully dried meats and provisions,
he was confident of success.
"Dr. Cook thought it best that I
should return, j He was the command

VIENNA SCIENTISTS DOUBT
Ask Where Cook Spent Winter Are
Skeptical About Arctic Game.
VIENNA. Sept. 3. Scientific circles in
Austria received the news of Dr. Cook's
discovery with much reserve. Professor
Oberhummer, president of the Imperial
Geographical Society, thinks the links In
the chain of his story thus far received
are Incomplete. i
The question where Cook passed the
Winter of 1906-09. according to Professor
Oberhummer, especially required precise
explanation.' Other scientists express
skepticism over that portion of the story
about districts so near the Pole being
rich In wild animals.

Heibergs Land and another three weeks
of fog. When 4hat cleared I saw we
had drifted southwest to Rlngnesland,
where we found open water and tower
high screw ice, which stopped our way
eastward.
Hungry, Ammunition Scarce.
"We now began to suffer hunger.
Our provisions were becoming exhaust
ed and we were unable to find depots.
We entered Rlngnesland and on June
20 found the first animals of our re
turn bear and seal. We shot a bear.
" 'And now our goal was the whalers
at Lancaster Sound. We followed the
drift ice to the south, 18 miles a day, but
were stopped by pack ice In Wellington
Channel, which was impassable, either
by boat or sledge. Here was lots of
game, but We did not dare shoot It. We
had only taken 100 bullets to "the Pole
and now only ih were left. We went Into
Jones Sound after walrus and bears and
found open, calm water. We met polar
wolves, with which some of our d.gs
made friends and ran away.
Two Months in Open Boat.
" 'We spent day and night in an open
boat, ten miles from shore. This lasted
for two months, while storms often
raged over our heads. At last we got
ashore again, but we had no fuel and
were obliged to eat uncooked food.
Next day we found fuel, and what a
feast we had! But we suffered much
hunger during this period. One night
a bear came and stole our food. -We
had many fights with musk oxen which
attacked us. Our best weapon against
them was the lassoo.'
"The correspondent's story quotes Dr.
Cook as saying in conclusion:
To say that the day we reached our
provisions stored at Etah was a greater
day than April 21. I longed to get back
to civilization, to move among my fellow
men; I longed to press my wife to my
heart. I am the happiest man living.
Tell the whole world I thank God' I am
back.' "
Some had hoped the Hans Egede would
reach port tonight and Mr. Egan had
prepared" to welcome Dr. Cook with fire
works from the deck of the Fedora. The
quarantine station at Elslnore, however,
signalled that a gale was In progress
and that It was Improbable that the
steamer would reach her destination be
fore tomorrow morning.
King Frederick will hove an audience
with Dr. Cook tomorrow and will decor
ate him with the Danish gold medal
awarded for merit.
WEIGHT IS GREATEST AT POLE
Cook Stood at Point Nearest Earth's
Center.
LONDON. Sept. 3. Sir Robert Ball, for
mer astronomer of the Royal Observatory',
now profeseor of astronomy at Cam
bridge University vand one of the most
distinguished British scientists, has writ
ten the following statement:
"Two questions being asked all over the
civilized world today are:
" 'First Why does any one want to go
to the North PoleT
" 'Second How does he know when he
Is there?' k
"To answer the second question first.
the mariner who finds his latitude in the
northern hemisphere to be 90 degrees
knows He can be nowhere else than at the
North Pole. The astronomer tells you
that to any one standing at the North
Pole the sun rises and sets only once a
year six months ' daylight, six months
night, mitigated only by a little twilight
at the beginning and end of a period of
awful gloom, broken by. occasional moon
light or aurora.
"The po is ' truly an unique spot.
Cook, standing there, faced due south.
Whichever way he looked he was more
than 20 miles nearer the center of the
earth than if he stood at the equator..
His weight was greater than anywhere
else 'on the surface of the globe. A
piumbllne In his hand pointed vertically
upward to the pole of the heavens,
around which all -the- stars revolve.
Half of the stars he could never see: the
other half never were, below his hori
zon, and would have' been visible
throughout the six months of night.
The famous constellation Orion circled
around and around his horizon. The
pole star stood directly over his head.
"The gain, to . knowledge , from Dr.
Cook's discovery is inestimable. There
is still much to learn of tides, currents
and the ocean."
ONE-MAX DASH LONG PLANNED
Cook Recognized Drawback of Large
Polar "Party.
PRESCOTT, Ariz.,. Sept.: 3. In contra
diction of the opinion frequently ex
pressed abroad- that- Dr. -Frederick
Cook's dash to the Pole was offhand
and haphazard. M. G. Cunnlff. former
editor of the World's Work, who is
here on a visit, declares that the ex
plorer deliberately planned to make it
a one-man attempt before he left New
York on the expedition. - - ' -
"Dr. Cook is no amateur, as a mem
ber of the Peary Club has called him,"
said Mr. v-unniff. . "He is a seasoned
explorer, a man absolutely without
nerves.
"Regarding the doubts expressed of
Cook's ability to prove that he really
reached the Pole, since .he had no gal
lery of spectators to corroborate him,
I recall several conversations I had
with him and Anthony Fiala Just be
fore he left on the expedition. Fiala,
who had Just returned from an un
successful search for the Pole, declared
that no party , of any size, could; hope
to reach it, hampered as it must -necessarily
be by large quantities of provi
sions. Cook agreed with him and said
hi. ni.n -ci-ac tn start from a base
! of supplies with a very small crew of
; seasoned Eskimos, progress to a point
within 200 miles OI ins r-uie,
provisions and then, with but one com
panion and the pick of the dog pack,
make the final dash.
"That his plan was successful is
proved by his messages, for Dr. Cook
Is a man of his word. He habitually
undervalues rather than overstates his
achievements, and since he declares he
reached the Pole, there can be no
doubt of it."

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 3.That Dr.

Cook Is making a sincere statement, but
