FOOLED US ALL SAYS COOKS BACKER BRADLEY
New York December 21 John M Bradley a backer of Dr. Cook said he was fooled by the Arctic claim from the king of Denmark down and lost interest after Cook left Waldorf Astoria for Bronxville. He questioned Cook's statements and noted the Copenhagen verdict supported by Saville and the Explorers Club. Bradley and others said Cook could not prove his northern pole ascent and that speculation over Loose's New York Times observations influenced the report.
