Hampton said that charges that the seeker for the pole was simply after money were unfounded. The editor says thera was n3 hag gling over the price, and that the oi-ly point that caused any discussion was the outlining Of the articles themselyea. Dr. Cook was extremely anxious that the story should' cover fully all tha happenings of , the trip, and that It should state fully his reasons for be lieving that ho had found the pole. Tho doctor, according to Hampton, was ex tremely anxious to push his" claim that he was sincere and that crlea of faking were without faundatlon. - NAPIER OBJECTS TO VIOLATIONS AND IS .
