April 6 of the present year A message to the Associated Press "Stars and Stripes nailed to says: North Pole” Commander Peary’s wife has received a message from Indian Harbor "Have made via Cape Bay reading: good at last I have the old pole Am Will wire again from well Love Chateau” From St Johns N F comes the “Commander Robert E following: Peary who announced on Monday that he had'Tliscovered

x'W I ROBERT famous E PEARY Arctic Explorer through Captain Robert Bartlett of the Roosevelt Peary’s ship” Dr Frederick A Cook was seated at dinner surrounded by a unmant company when the news of Peary’s discovery was received in Copenhagen Dr Cook was immensely interested I and said: “That Is good news His hope Peary did get to the pole observations and report on that region will confirm mine” And thus it seems that the North Pole has been doubly discovered Two Americans have planted the flag of their country in the land of ice which man has sought to penetrate for four centuries and eaoh ignorant of the other’s conquest has sent within a period of five days a laconic message of success On September 1 Dr Cook sent out from the Shetland islands the first message of his success a message which has aroused a storm of controAnd now versy around the world Robert E Peary lost from view in the land of ice and unheard from since August 1908 has startled the world by a similar message sent from Indian Harbor Labrador There was no qualification it left no doubt With but a word from Peary the world waits for details but none will be available until he arrives at Char teau Bay Labrador It was comparatively a simple matter to ascertain that the April 6 referred to by Peary was April of this year as his expedition dd not start from New York until July 7 1908 From the time Peary wrote his last letters home from his depot of supplies at Etah in August 1908 until he flashed the magic words from Indian Harbor nothing was known of the fight he had been making across the frozen crust of the north Believes Both Men Found Pole Washington — “That dispatch from Peary means that he has finally achieved what he has so long been after” said Henry Gannett an old friend of Peary and vice president of the National Geographic society “I am awfully glad that he has reached the North Pole whether he was the first to reach there or not He certainly worked hard enough to get there Such a dispatch from Peary would signify Even If only his own achievement Cook whs there first whatever he left there would have floated miles away” v |
