The furnaces have been in use for the
past year at the Golden C,cle, V,ndica-

and the company now Is crowded with
demands for the d.v'cr, which is a new

 SEATTLE, Wash, June 12.-General Baron Kuroki sailed for Japan on the steamship Kaga. Before leaving Gen. eral Kuroki, through the American hon. orary escort, General O. E. Wood, said that his visit to this country had been a most pleasant one and that he leaves with the kindest feelings for Uncle Sam and his people
 Reports from Washington that an antl-American combination exists be- tween the Japanese of the northwest and the Progressive party at home are discredited here by both the Japanese consul, s. Hishimidzu, and General Wood. The former declared the report to be absurd and without any founda- ton.
 General Wood laughs at the idea of any combination trying to bring on war and says that the trouble is due to the agitation of several dissatisfied persons who thought they saw an op- portunity to make some noise; that Japan does not want to go to war with the United States.

|sthrough the contest for the Lahm cup, which is to take place some time dur ing the summer. Various conditions are attached to the contest for this trophy, but the main, thing is to ex- ceed Lieut. Lahm's record of 402. miles, made last year, when he won the international cup for America.
 If the wind is blowing directly from the north or west at the time of the ascension from St. Louis and the up- per curre..ts correspond with those close to the earth 1t will not be pos sible to exceed Count de La Vaulx's record. The balloons will be carried out to sea on the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic ocean in such circum- stances. But with a wind from any other direction the chance of estab@ fishing a new record is exceedingly good.
 It is not regarded as probable that balloon would be carried across the Rockies from St. Louis because of the almost entire absence of east winds inl that section of the country. but with AI south wind or even wind from the southwest a balloon could be carried not further than into northern Maine and still establish a new record.
 With Canada stretching for hun1 dreds of miles to the north, the oppor4 tunities in that direction are virtually without limit, and in spite of the chances of being lost in the wilds on the northland 1t is there that the eyeal of aeronauts are turned most hope fully.
 Men who are spending much money and time in making elaborate plans tol add the worlds record as well as the international cup to Americas trophies are cheered by the knowledge that tho. science of aeronautics has SO far add vanced that there will be little dif1- culty in keeping a balloon ailoat at least as long as Count de La VauIxss was in the air when he made his rec ord flight.
 Wise and his companions had been in the air only 1s hours when he had. covered a distance of more than 500 miles in a straight line from St. Louis. . and the aeronaut's own record of the voyage described course covering more than HOO miles. while Count dc La vaulx was in flight for ss hours and 45 minutes to cover q distance ef 1,250 miles. 1 If some daring American asronauk can maintain Wise's speed, and ct tha same time maintain his balloon in the air as long as did Count de La vauix. there can be no doubt of beating the record. provided the balloon is car ried over the land.
 Wise was heading straight toward what would now be the worlds record when his balloon was wrecked. He had followed a general east-northsast direction from St Louis and was head. ing down the valley of the st Law renee, following the north sEcss of Lake Ontario. when he was suddenly swept inland and his voyage ended Foreign aeronauts who have en. tered for the international cup raca are eagerly discussing this chance cf establishing a new record.
