NO PHOTOGRAPHERS ON HAND.
Probable Reason for Failure to Test
Langley Airship.


Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
Underwater, Va, September 30.-Ele-
CANT airship weather this morning failed to
entice the Langley buzzard from its perch
inside the houseboat. Prof. Manly makes
no explanation for his failure to accept the
fine opportunity about the first Of the week
for testing the flying properties of the me-
chanical bird, but it may have been due to
the absence of the efficient staff of pho
tographers. Owing to illness Chief Pho
tographer Smillie has been away since Sat-
urday. and his principal assistant was also
absent this morning.
kilograms sent to Washington this morn
ing by Prof. Manly were probably for the
purpose Of summoning photographers to
the houseboat this afternoon. Late yester-
day afternoon the motor and propellers
seemed to behave all right when tested, but
more shop work was done today, with a
view Of improving the propelling gear. The
necessity for having this at its best, coupled
with the absence Of the photographers,
probably accounts for the postponed expert
ment.
