Two of the most prominent literary men of ePnmark, George Flrtndn and Karon Ilosecrsnts. o:ime In to shake hands, and thiourhout the course of tlie day Ir. Cook roei the most notable people In the clt jr. The program, which hna now been ar ranged. Include a reception by the Ameri can minister to the diplomats on Tuesday, reception to several Danish university delegates, who wish to pay their rrspecia to the explorer, and an address by Dr. Cook before the geographical society. Denmark Relieve In Cook. In the matter of the authenticity of Dr. Cook'a exploit, which seems to have raised questions In America, there Is this to be said, that In Denmarck the men of his own profession, exploration, surround him and support him without question. Instead of avoiding them, as a charlatan would, he spends every possible moment with them, discussing conditions, Ice fields and drifts, dugs and supplies, and they believe In lilm. Whatever the rest of the World may think, Denmark, which prides Itself on Arctic explorations, has put the seal of Its belief and endorsement on Dr. Cook as strongly as it is possible to do. The king, acting on carefully considered advice from experts, givea him such honors as never before have been given to a pri vate person. All the Danish papers, after the first day's skepticism, accept him wholly. There was strong doubt of his claims before tv arrived, but one of the strongest factors now Is Dr. Cook's per sonality and the absolute freedom and cundor with which he answer all ques tions. To obviate the possible loss by shipwreck of his papers, Dr. Cook shipped sections of them from Greenland by different ves Ii, and la arranging to have them sent f cm Denmark In a similar way. Dr. Cook lclnlmed any title to unusual bravery. U fays that the auecess of his expedition was due to the fact that he had strong rr.rn and dogs for the final dash, on which veral others had started with weakened parties, and that ha did not follow the "starvation rout. Will Leetare at Brussels. BRUSSELS, Sept. It has been defi nitely decided, according to the announce ment here, that Dr. Frederick A. Cook will deliver a lecture at Brussels on September 30. Elaborate preparations will be made to greet the explorer. He will be recolred by Prince Albert of Belgium, and perhaps King Leopold. Prof. Lecolnte, director of the Brussels observatory, continuing his defense of Dr. Cook, insists that the explorer can easily prove his facta to the satisfaction of scien tists. "There has been some astonishment," he said today, "that Dr. Cook found hlmseU on April tl, 1908, In latitude 89 degrees 59 minutes 46 seconds. Now the figures forty six constitute an approximation which an astronomer himself would make with diffi culty. It la a reasonable result of Correc tions made to observations taken In round figures. Therefore, after April 21, when he had practically arrived at the pole, lie made complementary march of fourteen geographical seconds, merely, I suppose, to reply to a possible malevolent critic who might try to say that Dr. Cook had not reached the pole If he did not go beyond 89 degrees 69 minutes M seconds. We might say Dr. Cook has gone entirely around the pole;." Prof. Lecolnte recalled how Dr. Cook's medical skill waa of the greatest service In the Belgian Antarctic expedition when some of the member of the party suffered from heart trouble and showed the first symp toms of scurvy. "Dr. Cook encouraged and saved u at that time, "mid PrcfrfeolMe. ' f hlrago Man Cries Pake. CHICAGO, Sept. 6. The latest reports on Dr. Cook'a explorations have failed to convince Pro , Thomas O.' Chamberlln, head of the department of geology of the University of Chicago, that the Arctic traveler reached the North pole. "Are the American., people an Intelligent nation or can they be deceived?" asks Prof. Chamberlln. v "Will they accept Dr. Cook'a statement that he found the pole unhesitatingly or will they demand proofT" "It Is not up to the skeptics to disprove Dr. Cook' story. Rather It Is for him to make good. There la nothing so far to prove that Cook ever reached the pole. We have nothing but hi own word for It. We should have further proof, for. If he actually reached the pole he would have made a statement that would have set all doubt at rest. This Is nothing new. We all knew It wa coming. I heard long ago that i when Cook returned he would make this claim. If his story la true he Will have, abundant proof of It." Asked what proof would satisfy him, the professor declined to (tats, intimating that a contest may come. "If thl prove to be a 'fake,' " he said. "I'm not. going to help htm out by show ing him how. It may come to a test and he should not be furnished with material for a defense. The testimony of the Es kimos, while undoubtedly of some value, should not be at all conclusive."

On one occasion Senator Burkett met Dr. Fred Cook at a banquet In Washington And the senator felt very much relieved when the news was received that the explorer had discovered the North pole, for when Sena tor Uurkett left Dr. Cook the doctor was In a very bad way. "Dr. Cook was one of the speakers at a banquet given by the Geographical society In Washington," said Senator Uurkett. "He had started In on hi talk, telling of the perils of one of his trips In search of the pole. The speaker said: "'We climbed the mountain of snow and then we cut out of the Ice a space suffi ciently large to pitch a tent. With the Ice for a floor we crawled Into the tent to spend the night.' "At that Juncture," said the senator, '"the president entered the banquet hall, the audience rose and began to cheer and Dr Cook never finished that speech. So far as I knew he waa still in that tent on the mountain of Ice until the new was received that he had reached the pole. It is very evident he got out of the tent some way, but he didn't that night."

The striking workmen of the various plants and mills declare that in spite of the fact that the manufacturing concerns are running full time, ana are crowded w.th orders, the old "panlo wage rates" instituted In VMfl apply in every operating plant, and that no promise of a return to "prosperity rates" Is held out Upon this question In nearly every In iaiic, the score of large and small strikes In this district have been called.

QUIET WEEK IN WALL STREET Market Dormant Since Harriman'i Illneis Ceases to Be Factor. MANY SHORT SALES UNCOVERED Paalekf Buying; for These Accounts 11ns Krfeet on Values Rise In tnlted states Steel to Record Level. NEW YORK. Sept. B When business began In the stock market last week evi dence had been accumulating over Sun day which served to dlfolpate the anxieties which had been keeping the market unset tled and excited. More exact Information of K. H. Harrlman's state of health quieted the hysterical alarm on that sub ject which had been felt ever since the seclusion Into which the financier had re tired on his excursion from abroad and the entl I reticence observed by all having knowledge of his real condition. A per sonal statement from Mr. Harrlman him self late on Monday confirmed the more rational Impression of hi health and the subject thereafter dropped almost Into ob scurity and did not figure more than casually In stock market consideration. This retirement of the subject from prominent consideration by no mean ended Its Influence as a factor on prices, as there was a residue of uncovered short sale of stocks based on the expected III effect of the declining strength of the president of the Union Pacific and the Interruption to be caused to the vast financial projects which he is supposed to be pursuing. The short Interest In the market was a substantial Influence throughout the week even after the urgent and almost panicky buying for that ac count at the opening of the week. Contracts Closed Vp. The approach of a holiday of three days at the end of a week Intensified the dis position to close up speculative contracts and increased the demand from the short Interest. With the clearing away of the anxieties caused by Mr. Harrlman's illness the way was opened for resumption of In fluence by the very favorable factor In the general situation. Of these primary Importance was accorded the Iron and steel trade situation, as was seen by the ag gressive leadership of United States Steel in the recovery of prices. This was suf ficient to place the price of that stock at a new record level. Trade advices all pointed to the expanding demand for Iron and the extraordinary activity In all line of finished steel products. Various trade and financial authorities gave extremely sanguine estimations of the probably un precedented volume of the production next year.- The Influence of the steel trade advices was not supplemented effectually from the copper trade, owing principally to the sta tistical position of that metal. Re-sales of copper metal and a further accumula tion of stock In European warehouses suggested the Inference that speculative buying had been a large factor In such In crease In demand as had occurred, while the sustained rate of production argued a 'difficulty in sustaining the price for the metal. Crop Cause Anxiety. The agricultural prospect suggested soma cause for anxiety. The government re port of the cotton condition showed x so heavy a deterioration as to bring It to a percentage lower than ever at this season. It needed full allowance for the compen sating Influence of the enlarged acreage for the crop and the heavy reserve Implied by the , showing of last year's- unprece dented crop to mitigate the bad effect of this showing. The lack of moisture for the corn crop - and the conviction that It was going back had also to be faced. Some warning notes were heard also from sources which command estimation of the wheat crop itself. Money Market Scrutinised. The money market Is subject to close scrutiny, owing to the known factors at work there to effect the future, but the aotual effect on rate haa not been suffi cient yet to become an active Influence in the speculation. The interior is drawing funds from New York for seasonable use. The prospect of government borrowing at an early date becomes clearly defined. Several large railroad loans are to be fi nanced. The foreign exchange outlook Is unusually perplexing, with the complica tion of enormous Indebtedness to be met on account of bankers, borrowing and the problem of the effect of the new tariff law on merchandise import and of a short cotton crop on export.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5. Much a Dr. Fred erick A.' Cook has told of his trip to the North pole, and much aa has been printed of the man and the report of hla dlacovery of the top of the world, there appear to be little likelihood of thla topto yielding prominence to any other In the news this week.

City, state and' nation are ex pected to determine during the week upon the plana to receive him and celebrate hi epoch-marking achievement. Wright and Curtis.

Orville Wright In Berlin will occupy the entire week with experimental and exhibition flights in his aeroplane, while Olenn H. Curtis, tb winner of the chief prise In the Rhelm aviation tournament, will com pete In the apeed race at Brescia with the same aeroplane with which he won at Rhelm.
