COPHAGENlDISCREDIT

DR COOKI

The Evidence Submitted to Them by

the Explorer is Xot Enough to

sustain His Claim of Reaching

the Poleo-

Copenhagen Dec 22Dr Fred ¬

erick A Cook has failed to sustain I

his claim that he reached the northI

poleThe University of Copenhagens I

committee appointed by the great ¬

est institution of learning in this na ¬

tion made its report yesterday ontue voluminous records submitted bythe Brooklyn explorer and the com-mittee

¬

after deliberation which cov-ered

¬

several days and during whichtime the data was gone over in amost thorough manner solemly de ¬

clares that the proof of Dr Cookhaving been at the pole is not to be 1

found in the explorers recordsReport in Detail

The report of the committee ap ¬

pointed by the University of Copen-hagen

¬

which Dr Cook allowed to f

become the arbitrator of his claimhas been made in complete formThe committee recently presentedits report to the consistory of the I

f university and reviewed the denun-ciations

¬

of the experts with thegreatest care and discussed the find-ings

¬

from every pointBoth the committee and the con-

sistory¬

are very much disappointed-The consistory met yesterday andadopted the official report whichstates that the alleged records sub ¬

mitted as proof of Dr Cooks findingthe location of the north pole are I

without any value The report issigned by all members of the com-mittee

¬

headed by Professor Stromgren chairman

I The report states further thatDr Cooks report to the Universityof Copenhagen is practically the sameas his story published in the New i

York Herald upon his return fromtue Arctic regions

I Xo Original Calculations GivenCopies of his note books submit ¬

ted to the committee that body re ¬

ports contain no original calcula ¬

tions Accordingly the committee I

concludes that he offers no proof ofhaving reached the north pole

The documents submitted to theuniversity for examination included-a typewritten report by Cook and atypewritten copy of Cooks notebookCooks secretary Waiter Lonsdale-told the commission that the originalnotebooks were sent to Europe byanother route despite the explorerspromise the original notebook anddiaries never reached the commis¬

sion The explorer s address is notknown even to his secretary

Cook a Fallen Ideal I

Widespread indignation over thedeception which placed practicallythe whole of Denmark in a humi-

I

the hero worship Heretofore ac¬

corded Explorer COOK The public isunable to comprenend why Cook I

sent papers when he admits in a let ¬

ter to Professor Torp that it seemsunwise and impossible to give finaljudgment because of the absence 01instruments and observations which1 left at Etah Iemoers of the ex-

amining¬ I

board were argry over the I
