Professor Langley Says Government,
Aid Is What He Needs.

Professor Langley Says Government
Aid is What He Needs.
Washington, Oct. S.-Prof. Langley,
who for four years ending last De-
cember, unsuccessfully strove to fly
his airship. has not abandoned his
belief that victory will eventually
crown his efforts.
All he wants is governmental sup
port and reasonable length of time.
The professor says that the inability
of his aerodrome to fly should not
be characterized as failures. He in
sists that there has never been any
defect in the machine or its engine,
and declares there have been no fail
ures as far as the actual test of the
flying capacity of the machine Is con-
cerned, for 1t was never free in the
air.
II the board of fortification and or
dinance of the war department will
resume its appropriations, which II
discontinued In disgust when the aero
drome plunged into the Potomac river
near the arsenal in December, he
says he will have another try.

JUST FOR A JOKE
YOUNG LEONARD GOT, ss5s,ooo
FROM STANDARD OIL BANK.
He Only Wanted to Try An Exper'
ment to see " u Would
Work.

Now York, Oct. 3.-Magistrate Pool.
in the Tombs police court this after
noon granted two applications made
by Abraham Levy in the interest OF
his client, Henry AmbiNse Leonard,
the young man who has confessed to
obtaining $359,000 in securities from
the National City bank by means Of
forged certified check. In comply
ing with the applications the court
er is held from $4,000 to $25,000, and
secondly, continued the hearing until
next Thursday afternoon.
Both of these orders were entered
with the consent of the district attor-
neys office, which was represented
by Assistant District Attorney Chad
wick.
1t is fast becoming the consensus
of opinion among the police officials
who have been connected with Il
case of young Leonard that the young
man was led to commit the act from
mischievous motives only and not
through any intention Of theft.
Police Commissioner McAdoo today
said that he had had long talk with
the prisoner and was inclined to be-
lieve I-eonards story to the effect that
the taking of the securities had been
but an experiment on his part. Cap
tain McClusky of the detective bureau,
has O similar belief, 1t is said, and SO
have the employers of the young man.
After spending the night in cell
at police headquarters young Leon
ard today told every detail of how he
came to lay plans which so success
fully brought into his hands the great
amount of securities which Pearl e
Company had hypothecated as cola.
eral for 100000 loan at the Rookie
feller institution. He told his story
In a straightforward manner to Mr.
Levy, leaving the latter with the sin
cere opinion of the case as expresser
above.
Young Leonard, according to M
Levy, is not Of the temperament of ;
youth of criminal proclivities, and il
today bemoaning the impulse which
prompted him to make an example 0
lax business methods in Wall stree,
The boys first regret is. that he ha!
brought disgrace upon his aged par
ents and has brought into the cas-
the name Of young woman who, |
now appears, has never been any NOR,
than friendly acquaintance.

MOSQUITO BODY
May Protect President on His Visit
to New Orleans.

Washington, Oct. S.-Although the
president will visit the fever ridden
city Of New Orleans on his southern
tour, he will take no chances of bring
ing the contagion north or breaking
the quarantine imposed by several
states.
He will enter the city from Little
Rock, accompanied by Secretary Loeb
and DR.. Rixey, but has decided to leave
the press representatives and other
members of his party at Little Rock
to return by rail, while he takes the
water route home on a battleship.
The president does not propose be-
ing especially hampered in his day
light movements while in the Cres-
cent City. He wants TO move about
freely, but has agreed to observe ex-
traordinary precautions at night. His
hotel rooms will be fumigated sew
eral days before his arrival and the
doors and windows will be heavily
screened to keep the mosquitoes away.
There Is some talk of mosquito body
guard to protect the president day
and night When the president starts
by water 1t will be the beginning of a
three days absence from all personal
communication with land. 1t is be-
lieved. however, that his ship may an
chor off Key West for few hours.
He will permit no newspaper men
aboard, It is said.

Dawley, O, Cleveland, represented Mrs.
Chadwick, who Of course was not in
court. United States Attorney ]. j..

Dawley argued three points: Ir-
regularity in impaneIing the jury;
admission of incompetent testimony;
errors complained Of in the argument
of the United States attorney in the
former trial.
He claimed that the sentence of Mrs.
Chadwick, which was ten years, was
illegal in that she had been convict
ed of conspiracy in but one act, for
which the maximum sentence Is two
years and fine in money. Dawley
claimed that one Bentley Crane had

to the trial Judge he should have dis
missed the case and fined the offender
for contempt Of court"

JAMES /, HYDE
WILL NOT RESPOND TO A SUB
POENA.
Claims Legislative Committee Has No
Power to Make Him Tell
What He Knows.

New York, Oct. 3.--Even If sub
poena is served upon him, feat that
has not yet been accomplished by vigil
liant and snrewd process servers,
James Hazen Hyde, of Equitable Life
Assurance fame, will refuse to allow
the legislative insurance investigating
committee to learn all that he knows
about the insurance business.
This declaration comes through a
letter to the Armstrong committee,
written In response to request that
James Hazen Hyde appear before the
committee as witness, by Samuel
Untermyer, Mr.. Hyde's counsel, an
nouncing that he has advised his eli
ent mat the committee Is without
power or jurisdiction to make the in
vestigation in which 1t is engaged.
Mr. Untermyer contends that the
assembly, If not the senate, has no
power to direct an investigation to be
held after its adjournment and for
the express purpose of reporting to a
future legislature not yet selected. The
letter was sent to Charles r. Hughes,
counsel to the investigators this after
noon and was made public tonight.
In it Mr.. Untermyer also informs
the committee that Mr.. Hyde is ready
and willing to appear and testify un-
der certain conditions which are that
his testimony shall be limited to mat
ters which are not embraced in pend
ing litigation and that he may be rep
resented, advised and re-examined by
counsel.
