Acting Secretary AKII'€\UI State lit--
partment. in answer to inquiries at the
State Department had no comment
whatever to make. as there was no
question before him
NEW YORK. Sept. ll.——'i‘he ka-
Peary controversy over the discO'ery
of the North Pole continues to lane
with unabated fury. For the time be-
ing he great achievement heel is
somewhat obscured if not lost sght
of in the Intensity of feeling which has
been aroused over the personal as ect
of the two conflictiug claims.
mander Peary's latest dispatch
ing it as a “gold brick" had added no]
to the already fierce flit" of charge nd
countercharge I~ath explorer has his
ders. centering in the various
organizations with which they
i been identified, but raiultying thr ug‘
out scientific and public circles
orally. in these divided camps, p
are hastily being formed on a prOr
nus-scale for the welcome to be accor-
ded as to the two claimants for polar
honors, and as the present plans
dicate that both explorers will ar~ivc
about the some time. the demon tra«
tlons greeting them promise toggling
to a climax the present intense i‘ ing
of approval and disapproval.
Peary's latest challenge to Cook‘s
claim is viewed with varying shad of
feeling by the supporters of the wo
men. It Is accepted by both side as
a direct charge of the untruthful ass
of Cook‘s narrative. it is note al-
so that Peary now adds the a te-
ment that he has proofs of his a te-
ment contradicting (look: To giv , ad-
ded emphasis to this. he twice re ites
his possession of proof. ~ It is also not-
ed that his intention to present his
proof is "when he tCook) makes a full
statement of his journey over his sig-
nature. Peary also requires that his
be made “to some geographical oci-
ety or other reputable body." in his
lconuection Copenhagen diapal has
already stated that Cook was reay to
submit his claim to the Coast and
(leodetlc Survey at Washington or th-
er scientific body it Peary woul- do
the same thing. The use of the on-
temptuous phrase “a cold brick" I re-
ferring to Cook a claim Is looked pon
by the champions of Di. Cook as i~ar
ticularly offenaito. 'l‘hev regar it
as not only a challenge of his ver ity,
but as onevserlous import in to ing

upon Cooks methods that it calls for
Immediate substantiation from Peary.
Whether he will give this substatio-
tion at once Is open to doubt. In view
of his statement that the proof would
be pressnted when Cook made a full
statement over his signature to some
geographical society or other r- unable
body. Commander Peary has now tak-
en action as a naval officer as well as
an explorer by reporting officially to
the president, to the Navy Depart-
ment and to the Coast and Geodetic
Survey at Washington that he reached
the North Pole April 6. 1909. These
official reports are in line with argu-
ments presented at the hearing of in
junction proceedings yesterday over
the question of publishing Peary' s per-
sonsi narrative. when it was maintain
ed by James M Beck, former assis-
taut attorney general of the United
States, that Peary s achievement ton-
stituted a historical fact accomplished
by a United States Navy Oihcer on a
public mission.
The Arctic Club of Amerita further
perfected its plans today for meeting
Cook on his arrival. A large steamer
capable of carrying a thousands per
sons has been (bartered to go down
the bay to meet the explorer on his
arrival on the Oscar il Whlfh sailed
from Christiansaud at noon today
Many persons including the chief offi-
cials of Brooklyn and representatives

whence he will proceed across the city

TODAY'S STOCK MARKET.
Further Short Covering in the Harri

NEW YORK. Sept. ii.~-'l‘he. Harri
man issues were again a aciisational
feature of today's brief session on the
Stock Exchange. Union Pacific com
mon and preferred and Southern Pa-
‘ cific was up to 210 7-8. a gain of 3 7-8.
' and the. preferred stock was selling
at 112, an advance of 1 5-8. while
Southern“ Pacific was up a full point.
Dealings in these stocks together with
Reading and United States Steel doin.
tasted the entire market. The ad-
- vance in the liarriman stocks was at-
tributed largely to further short cov-
‘ ering and little attention was paid to
rumors of a fight for control of these
properties. United States Steel was
relatively weak on selling for profit.
Fluctuations in Union Pacific par-
ticalariy were very irregular. the
stock advancing from 207 to 2ltl 7-8
and then back to 208 3-8. The balance
of the list was fairly firm-hut dull.
Business fell off in.‘ e second hour
and the market became very heavy.
