LANGLEY's FLYING MACHINE.
The Amusement IL Has Provoked and 10
Dismal Faiiure May Result In tho
Professors Dismissal.

Washington, Oct 1.-The members
Of congress who have dropped into
Washington from time to time are
considerably wrought up over Prof.
LAngley's alleged flying machine and
the ridicule II has provoked among
scienti6c men by it, repeated failures.
It 10 said that Prof Langley's aero
drome has become q source Of amuse-
ment and has put the United States
government In a humillating position
among European scientists, There 10
some talk Of q congressional investiga-
ton to determine to what extent the
scientific staff of the Smithsonian in
stitution has been employed on this
private enterprise and how far the
public funds have been used on the
flying machine.
II Ia an open secret that most OF the
stan at the Smithsonian has made fun
Of the aerodrome from the start and
there are charges afoat that for years
Prof. Langley has constantly neglected
the legitimate work Of the institution
and devoted time, money and material
10 the flying machine which has never
had the approval Of government scien-
lists. and which, II Is said, possesses no
novel features whatever. The gossip |
about the infatuation Of Prof Langley
Tor visionary flying machines has
reached such a pass that in all proba-
ility the final failure Of the machine
will be followed by some sort Of an In
yestigation, and the result may pos
,ibly be the election Of successor to
Prof. Langley as secretary OF the
Smithsonian institution.

STEAMER CAPSIZED
The J. Il. Hackley Struck by a
Squall on Lake Michigan.
TWELVEPERSOyS co DOWN WITH her


Marinette, Wis, Oct. 5.-During a
sQuall Saturday night on Lake Michi-
gan the steamer J. H. Hackley cap
sized and - persons were drowned.
The Goodrich line steamer Sheboygan
rescued the other nine persons ON
board the Hackley after they had
foated about on pieces of wreckage
all night The Hackley was struck by
the sQuall when seven miles OF Green
island. The upper work was blown
away before the men could reach q
haven. The boat then turned over
and went down In deep water. As the
boat went to the bottom those who
could seized on floating pieces OF
wreckage, while the women and three
or four Of the men, failing to find any
object to which to cling, sank in the
raging sea, so far as is known. The
waves were rolling high and several of
those who at first saved themselves
from immediate death lost strength
and sank. 1t was several hours after
the Hackley sank before the Sheboy-
gan hove within hailing distance. The
shouts Of the floating men attracted the
attention of the sailors on the She
boygan and every assistance was lent.
Some of the persons who were res
cued say that 1t is possible that one
or more of the IL persons missing may
have escaped death. This view is not
given much credence by the sailors Of
the Sheboygan.
The Sheboygan made into Fish creek
when hope Of rescuingRother persons
seemed improbable. The rescued per-
IONS were so exhausted from their
struggle against drowning that they
were unable for some time to tell any
thing about the wreck.
The persons saved by the Sheboy-
gan say that with the crashing away
of the upper work all persons aboard
the Hackley ran on deck. Hasty
for plunge into the
water were begun, but before any
plans could be carried out the boat
listed, turned over and went down
like a rocket.
Search is still making for any per-
son who may have escaped death and
for the bodies Of those who were
drowned.
