"EVEN JUDICIARY
BEHIND MARTIN"
R. Lindsay Gordon Makes Broad
Charge of "Ring" Rule at
Charlottesville
[Special to The Times-nisnatch.]
Charlottesville. Va., September 4.?
The Jones and Class rally at the court?
house this afternoon delighted the
friends of the "anti-machine" ticket.
Addresses were delivered by Rr. Lind?
say Gordon, of Louisa, and T. J.
Downing, of Lancaster county, the
speakers being Introduced by Captain
H. Clay Mlchle, one of Pickett's men.
Mr. Gordon, discussing the Barbour
Thompson and Glasgow letters, de?
clared that Senator Martin was not
only a railroad lobbyist, but the lender
of the lobby; that the Senator had
forgotten the defeat of the Kent bill,
a bill that had twenty-six Democratic
majority when the Legislature was
elected In '91. nnd that this majority
was changed to the defeat of the bill
by the Glasgow-Barbour-Thompson
lobby, over which Senator Martin pre?
sided.
The speaker then discussed "ring"
rule in Virginia, claiming that out of
the forty-odd judges In the State of
Virginia, only two, certainly not more
than three, would vote for Jones; that
even the Judiciary were lined up be?
hind Martin: that all other classes
of citizens were divided; that there
was a remarkable unanimity among
the officeholders of the State; that "the
r'ng" was evil In two respects?first,
that It was expensive, having practi?
cally doubled the cost of the State
government In ten years, and second,
becnuse It selected only men who were
willing to obey a leader: that honest.
Independent men. ..-ho would obey only
the dictates of their consciences, were
excluded from place and power, and
that only the servile were acceptable
to the ring.
Mr. Downing argued along the same
lines of thought, glvinrr Individual In?
stances of the result of ring rule.
His tribute to Congressman Jones, his
neighbor and friend, with a recital
of his Democratic record, brought forth
much applause. Mr. Downing appealed
to his auditors to rid the State of
"ring" rule, and put the leadership In
the hands of n representative Virginia
Democrat, who could not get appro?
priations becnuse he could not culti?
vate the friendship of Cannon nnd
Aldrlch.
DR. COOK INSISTS
HE REACHED POLE
Repudiates "Confession'' in Mag?
azine, Saying It Hurt His
Cause Irretrievably.
New York, September 4.?Dr. Fred?
erick A. CVjok. the never credited neur
discoverer oi the North Pole, who some
months ago "confessed" In Hampton's
Magazine that he might merely have
thought he discovered It, has Issued
a heart-to-heart talk to the public?
through a press agent for?"release"?
repudiating his "confession" and In?
sisting that he got there after all.
The doctor's new and latest revised
counter-confession says that the first
netted him only ?4,000 and was "gar?
bled" for sensational advertising pur?
poses. The doctor says he is sending
advance copies to various scientific
bodies of the world from pole to pole.
Including the Institute of Geography
and History of Hahla, but not Jnclud
Ihg his first Tove. the. Unjverslty of
Copenhagen, which subsequently re?
pudiated his claims, or the National
Geographical Society of Washington,
which accepted the proofs of Admiral
Peary.
This same book, continues the heart
to-henrt talk through Dr. Cook's press
agent, will contain disclosures, show?
ing "bribery and fraud In the rival
campaign against him "
The publisher and price of the thus
heralded Cook book are not stated In
the press agent's announcement, that
being left for a second instalment of
the heart-to-heart talks with the
American public.
"The American public cannot always
be hoodwinked." remarks the doctor
at one point in his counter-confession
Dr. t'ook declares that Hampton's
Magazine "misrepresented him and
hurt his cause irretrievably by adver?
tising his articles as a confession."
He says that he stole away from the
public eye, "mentally and physically
exhausted." to rest and recuperate.
He continues:
"Out of tin- public eye, life for f.ie
assumed a new interest," he explains.
"In the meantime, public agitation
was stilled.
"By the time i had resolved my case.
I received through my brother, Wil?
liam L. Cook, nnd my London solicitor
various offers from newfpapors and
magazines for any stntement I desired
to make. Eager to secure a 'heat.'
newspapers were offering my brother
as high as $1,000 merely for my ad?
dress. The New York newspaper which
has led the attack against me sent an
offer through my London solicitor of
any figure I might name for my first
exclusive statement to the public."
The doctor says ho finally decided
to "explain" his case In Hampton's
Magazine for a paltry $4,000, although
he "had a standing offer of $10,000."
T. Kverett Harry, of the magazine, nnd
he; he snys, agreed on the outline of
the articles. Of fills he says:
"They were to he a series of heart
to-heart talks, embodying tho psycho?
logical phases of the polar controversy
and my own actions. The articles
that eventually appeared In Hamp?
ton's, with the exception of unauthor?
ized editorial changes and excision of
vitally Important matter concerning
Mr. Peary, were practically the same
aa planned In London "
liut on hla way to New York, Doctor
Cook declarea, ho was met at Troy by
a "aub-edltor," who suggested a sen?
sational statement?the doctor was to
go secretly to New York, submit him?
self to several employed alienists, who
were to pronounce him Insane, where?
upon, he says, ho was to write several
articles. In which he would admit that
he, was mentally unbalanced at the
time he concluded that he had arrived
at tho pole.
He felt staggored, he says, and that
this newspaper man regarded him aa a
scoundrel, learning, too, as he had
throughout tho heart-'bltter contro?
versy, the duplicity of human nature.
Then lie says:
"tmuglno my amazed Indignation
when, on reaching the shores of my
native country, I found that tho
magazine which was running my ar?
ticles, In which I hoped to explain my?
self, hud blazoned the sensational-pro?
voking He over Its cover, "Dr. Cook"s
Confession.' I had made no confession.
I had made the admission that I was
uncertain as to having reached the
exuet mathematical pole. In order to
advertise itself, the magazine employed
the truck of construing a mere admis?
sion of uncertainty aa to the exuet
pinpoint uttalnmcnt of the pole as a
'confession.' "
It hurt him, says the doctor, and it
hurt him worse, because presently the
press, "picking garbled extracts from
his articles about the impossibility ot
u pin-point determination of tho Pole
and the crazy mirage offsets of the
Arctic world." published nowg etorles
sent out by the same sensational "sub?
editor" who had first asked Dr. Cook
to be u luruitlc rather than a lial.
Then ho says:
"I reit crushed in my very effort to
explain myself. I was berfng irretriev?
ably hurt. But misrepresentations do
not make history- The American peo?
ple cannot always be hoodwinked"
Although Dr. Cook's rcpresontatlvei
are frank in saying (hat Dr. Cook's'
book contains tho most sensational ma?
terial of the entire polar controversy,
great secrecy Is maintained concernng
Its nnture. The charges made against
Dr. Cook, they say, are not so start?
ling as the revelation of fraudulent
methods employed In the campaign
discredit him. Dr. Cooks book. It Is
said, "cannot but create a tremendous
sensation."
It Is expected that the Cook book
may contain some of the "sensational
news" that Dr. Cook, through his
friend. Captain Osborn. said he had
given In a recent deposition In a civil
suit In, this city before a commissioner
of the German government. Captain
Osborn at that time ugreed "to let
the press have It for $50, but the
commissioner who took the testimony
eald it contained nothing new.
Benjamin B- Humpton. editor of
Hampton's Magazine, could not be
reached In an effort to ascertain
whether this latest was also the truest
of Dr. Cook's three heart-to-heart
talks with the American people.

i BY EVERY TEST
ORGANIZED LABOR
BEING PUTTOTEST
.Morrison Declares There Is
Gigantic Conspiracy to
Throttle Cause.
NO TOLERATION BY TRUSTS
Makes Appeal for Funds to Aid
Men Held in Connection With |
McNamara Case.
[Special to Tho Times-Dispatch.]
. Hlnghamton, N. Y , September 4.?A
gigantic conspiracy by the trusts' and
employers' associations to throttle the
cause of union labor was charged by
Frank .Morrison, secretary of the
American Federation of Labor in his
Labor Day address here to-day.
He cited the McNamara caso as an
Instance of the operations of "these
antagonistic associations of employ?
ers," and made a direct appeal to all
members of union labor for funds to
aid In their defense of these nun.
"If In this case organized labor
shows Its weakness in not being able
to defend Its position," he said, "then
future contests of a similar character
will occur.
"If the organizers of labor do their
duty?and we f el confident they will?
tho corrupt employers' associations
will not desire to try conclusions with
us again. Kidnapping must stop. Ma?
licious prosecution, must stop. Organ?
ized labor Is being put to the test
"These employers' associations," ho
continued, "do not hope for a linal
conviction of the men charged, their
purpose being to cast odium on our
entire movement. They uppatently are
determined by fair means or foul to
strike union labor a fatal blow.
"This antagonism, however." he said.
"Is simply a more potent argument
fOr trade unionism.
"The trusts of to-day have no tol?
eration for that class of labor who are
ambitious to secure for their children
B better lot In life than has been their
own; by their antagonism to every I
organized effort, they place their stamp
of disapproval on labor's desire to |
perpetrate American standards and the j
chance of putting within the reach of
every toller the opportunity and am?
bition for a creditable citizenship.
Chief Interest of Trusts.
The chief question of interest to the]
trusts to-day Is how they can prevent
their employes from becoming mem- j
bers of unions, thus minimizing tho
possibility of a demand being made
upon theiu for an increase In wages
or shorter hours of labor.
"The trusts are employing tho ablest
men that money can secure to perfect
plans to more effectively bind the
workers to the Industry.
"One of the most plausible and at
the same time the most vicious system
that the representatives of great cor?
porations are trying to fasten upon the
workers at the present time. Is the
so-called dividend dividing scheme?a
scheme In which the employe cannot
make a suggestion, either as to wages,
hours or share of the proAts. This
scheme of the trusts to hold their em?
ployes is particularly Interesting, when
It Is known that a roll call of the cor?
porations that favor file system will
reveal the fact that they are the cor?
porations and trusts that have abso?
lutely refused to permit their em?
ployes to organize, aye, more, they
have demonstrated their willingness to
expend millions of dollars to keep their
employes as helpless to change the
condition under which they labor, as
the slaves were helpless to do other
than the bidding of their masters.
"Some will say there Is a difference
?that the employes of the trust can
quit and look for work elsewhere,
while the slave could not; but 1 ask I
you where can those men secure other |
employment, when you take Into con- |
slderatton the constant inilux of over
1,000,000 aliens a year. About 260,000
men af working for the steel trust?!
lew. If any, of these men are to-day
members of u trade union- The steel
trust In the Into strike defeated the
union.
"The Influx of aliens constantly com- j
ing to our shores to secure employment
at any price, because they must live,
is used as a club by tho trusts to pre
vent men from quitting work for fear
they cannot secure employment else?
where.
"There are times when n 'strike Is
justifiable. God help us If the dny
should ever come when the right to
protest Is denied tho worklngman. In
so far as these organizations stand
for law nnd order, we are with them,
but In their present attitude, which
only makes for ?Jlass distinctions, class'
privileges, and. iis a result, class ha?
tred, we are diametrically opposed to,
them.
Triumph for >Viirc Earner.
Secretary Morrison referred to his
statement ut EMttsburg a year ago,
practically predicting the result of |
.she last congressional election, dcclar- |
Ing It was ti triumph for the Wage
earner, and a protest against existing'
conditions.
"I declared." he said, "that the al?
most Insurmountable obstacle that or- j
ganlsed labor and the people of tins
country were facing was the fact that
the Congress of the United States, and
nearly every State Legislature, was 1
ubSiiutely controlled by the repre?
sentatives of the great corporate In-|
terests of this country; that a law \
affecting these corporate int.rests
could hot be enacted by Congress or
placed In the statutes of the various'
Stutes. until It had been most caro- i
fully scrutinized by their representa?
tives?representatives who owe their
election to the support received from!
these great octopi, und In that way i
they become the slaves of these mon- |
liters of human greed thitt are savage-]
ly und ruthlessly degrading millions
of free men, for no other purpose than
to be able to pa,y dividends upon stock
watered to the third and fourth de?
grees.
"1 also called attention to the fact
that the wage workers of tho coun?
try were being rudely awakened from
their lethargy, and with their organ?
ized effort would assist in purging
Congress nnd the State Legislatures of
representatives who hold their office
