ADDSNEWFAGTSTO HIS STORY
In Lecture Under Auspices of Arctic
Club Explorer Telia Why He Left
Instrument With Whitney In Glv.
Ing Credit to Explorero Who Pre
ceded Him He Omits Namo of
Peary for First Time.
New York, Sopt. 28. Dr. Cook con
sented to glvo tho ABSocintod ProBs u
formal rojily to boiiio of tho most ma
torlnl of tho clmrgoa brought ngnlnst
lilm by Commander l'oary. A inoro
comploto declaration will be Usuud
by the oxploror when l'oary lunltos
his accusations ovor bis own s'uti
lure. Tho statement la ns follows;
"Commander Ponry says that my
Blodgos waie not fitted for Arctic
trnval nnd that ho would not euro to
voyngu In the Arctic with f'om.
Tha only sledge Conrmnnder Penry
saw was half u otio which 1 had glvon
to Sir. WKItnoy ns a souvoulr. Tho
remainder of It had boon used to
mako bows and arrows.
"Air. Whltnoy hud told mo that tho
Erie way coming up and would take
him ovur to tho Amorlenn side. I
hnd to travel ovor high Innd and Sev
ern! glaciers. The loo was rough and
thoro was a good donl of wntor to be
ospoclod on my return Journey, that
would Imvo subjected the Instruments
to a risk which wns entirely unneces
sary when Mr. Whitney nwnltcd a
ship to go to Etnli for him, on wlUch
ho expected to return directly to
America.
"By going to Upornnvlk, I ho'pod to
got back by tho und of July of tho
middle of August. I wanted to see
my family as soon as possible, as I
had been separated fiom them for
ovor two yonis, while Mr. Whltnoy
did not oxnoct to lonve boforo Octo
bor."
Cook Adds New Pacts.
Dr. Cook, In n lecture last night un
der tho ftusplcos of tho Arctic Club of
America, added now fncts to his nar
rative of his discovery of, tho North
pole,
"Harry Whitney," ho said, "nsked
tno to entrust to him ns n special favor
tho nag that I planted at tho North
polo. Ho oxpectod then an Amorlenn
ship to call for Klin, and wo argued
- that his return Journey would bo short
' cr nnd smooth by water than tho dls
tnnco ovorlond than thnt planned by
mo. For that reason I added to tho
flag my Instruments."
On tho first stages of his journey,
Dr. Cook said, ho took ton Eskimos
with him and might have had twonty
for tho asking. Six of theso he turned
bnck when within 100 miles of his
goal and two more when within forty-
six m,llos, rosorvlng Ftuklshuknnd
Ahweolnh, with twonty-six dogs and
two Blodgcs, for the lost dash.
Tho colInps,iblo canoe, which wn3
not 'inontloncd In Ills first nnrrntlva
nnd appeared suunonunntly In the lec
ture given nt Copenhagen, wns de
scribed In full. Tho frame, Dr. Cook
said, formed part of one of the
sledges, nnd tho canvns covering did
duty for a tont when not in uso on
tho water.
In giving credit to those explorero
who have preceded h.lm, Dr. Cook
omitted tho namo of Commander
Penry, which on provious occnslons
ho hns always Included.
WHITNEY USED HIS SUPPLIES
Peary Declares Hunter Was His Guest
for Year While In North.
Portland, Mo., Sopt. 28. "I wish tq
omphaslzo that tho rulntlons between
Whltnoy and myself wore at all times,
while ho was ab-.J. tho Roosevelt,
and whon ho loft to' go aboard the
Joanle, tho relations as botweon gen
tlemon," said Commander Poary at
the Union station bb ho was about to
board his train for Dar Harbor.
"Whltnoy occupied Captain Bart
lott's cabin on tho Kooscnelt, nto at
our mess and every cpurtosy was ox
tondod him. Most of Whltnoy'a per
sonal bolonglugn aro now on the
Hooeovolt, Including musk ox, boat
skins, otc."
Poary said' Whltnoy Had been his
guost at Etah for a year; that the
young sportsman hnd subsisted on
Peary's suppllos and that their rola
Uons ware cordial.
Up to tho moment he last saw
him, Peary said ho did not consldor It
concoivablo that WhJItney could have
any valuable instrument or docu
inentR of Dr. Cook, in fact Whittle)
had slated that he merely had some
of Cook's bolongings nnd uskod tc
put them aboard tho Roosevelt.
"This I refused to permit for ot
rious reasons," said Penry. "I knew
what Cool; was n to nnd thnt he had
been trying to take every advantage
of my life's work nnd supplies. There
fot e, l did not care to mako tho Boose
elt an express for Dr. Cook."

rAFT IN DEEP MINE
President Goes Down 1,200
Feet at Butte,
VISITS LEONARD COPPER MINE,
Chief Executive Sees Miners at Work
on Vein of High Grade Ore Wit
nesses Cowboy Race at Helena and
Reviews Parade of School Children.
Has Thrilling Auto Rldo Over Moun
tains Holona, Mont., Sopt. 28. Attlrod in
n linen duster, an old black slouch
hat nnd swinging an o:octrIc lantern
nt his side, President Tnft wns locked
In a narrow iron cngo and dropped 1,
200 feet through midnight blackness
Into tho depths of the famous old Leon
ard copper mlno nt Blitto. Ho had
tho rare oxporlenco of seeing miners
nt work wjlth a giant drill In n vein
of high grade ore that sparkled green
with Its wealth of mineral.
When ho had ascended with n whiz,
nftor half an hour underground, the
proFldont, blinking In tho glare of tho
noonday bud, was cheered to tho echo
by tho crowd of curious peoplo gatn
orod nt tho hoist. Ho declared on
thuslnstlcally: "I would not have missed It for tho
world."
It was the president's first vjiblt to
tho Montana copper district and' ho
hnd n sorlos of interesting experi
ences. Not tho leant of theso was a
thrilling automobile ride over tho
mountains from Butto to tho mouth
of tho l.connrd mine. Tho grades
woro steep nnd winding, but tho
chauffours woro experienced mon. ana
while thoro was apparently no threat
'of danger nt nny stage of tho trip,
thoro was a sigh of reljof whon Mr.
Taft had once more been placod safe
ly aboard tho Mayflower for tho run
to Holona.
Arriving bore, ho went directly to
tho stnto fair giound, whore, after
viewing n portion of tho exhibits, he
mado nn open air address and wit
nessed a race of cowboys. Returning
to tho city, Mr. Taft revlowod a pa
rado of school children.
Loaving bore, ho headed direct for
Spokano, whore ho Is cxpocted today
to deliver his formal speech on tho
subject which holds supremo .Interest
to nil tho west tho conservation of
tho natural resources and' tho recla
mation of nrld lands.
Dlelvcrs Sermon at Salt Lake.
In tho pulpit of tho famous Mor
mon tnbcrnnclo In Salt Lake, where
four years ago Theodore Roosevelt',
then president, preached a long ser
mon on right living nnd tho duUes ot
good citizenship, President Taft faced
an nudlonco which ho said Inspired
him to try to follow in tho footsteps
of his predecessor and deliver a
pronchment.
Mr. Tnft did preach n sermon text
and all. The Immense audience Jn the
flag-draped edifice, tho splendid mu
sical program of operatic and patrl
otic BeloctlonB, tho enthusiastic cheer
ing as President Taft appeared and
the quick response of tho audience to
points which he endeavored to Im
press upon his hearers, .Inspired him,
the president declared, with higher
thoughts of country and patriotism.
Tho president's sermon wns an ap
peal for amity between the peoplo,
attributing tho best rather than the
worst motives to tho action of others
whon possible to do so and not to
harbor hatred or animosity.
"A soft answer turneth away wrath,
but grievous words stir up anger,"
was tho text Mr. Taft selected from
the Book of Proverbs. Tho sermon
was n homely utterance, lnrgoly made
up of n relntlon of stories to glvo em
phns.ls to tho points.
As n result of several long confer
ancos with Chief Forester Glfford
Plnchot, President Taft caused to be
Issued n statement In which It Is de
clared that novor at any time during
tho Bnlllngor-Plnchot controversy has
the prosldont Intended to reflect upon
Mr. Plnchot, nnd ,ln which Mr. Tnft
takes a more forward stand than evei
In favor of the Roosevelt policies for
conscnntlon of natural resourcos. The
president Indicates that what Is to be
done In tho way of reclamation of nrla
lands must bo done within the law,
but announcos his Intention of npnly.
Ing to congress for such confirmatory
and enabling legislation as will put
ilio Roosevelt policies on tho firmest
possible basis.
