SANTOS -DUMONT'S
ARRIVAL DELAYED

Santos-Dumont. the Brazilian aeronaut.
probably will leave New York for st. Louis
to-day. According to a telegram last
night his departure from Gotham has been
delayed in order that he may attend to
the shipment of his airship.
The famous No. Z, with which Mr.. San
tos will make his first fight over the
Worlds Fair, is not expected to be re-
ceived in St. Louis until tomorrow. The
initial flight will take place July and
will be the star feature of a great cele-
bration of Independence Day.
The complete plans for the Fourth cele-
bration will not be made until the Expo
sition officials have had a conference with
the Brazilian wizard OF the air, because
it will depend largely on the time of day
he chooses to make the fight.
The airship ascent is considered tre-'
mendous drawing card-the most up-to-
date phase of the old-time Fourth Of July
balloon ascension.
