Two Explorers Claim North Pole Reach After Long Trials

After years of effort and heavy losses, Dr. Frederick A. Cook and Commander Robert H Peary both announced reaching the North Pole. Reports conflict on priority with Cook asserting his flag at the pole in April 1908 and Peary claiming April 1909. News from Copenhagen and New York describe receptions, telegraph confirmations, and ongoing questions of precedence.

Peary Achieves North Pole Claim Hailed by Gannet

Henry Gannet, an old friend of Peary and head of the National Geographic Society, praises Peary’s dispatch as proof of reaching the North Pole. He notes Peary’s effort, saying even Graf or Cook would have swum miles, from the East River to Claason Point, to verify the feat.
