CAPTAIN CHARLES DE r. CHANDLER STEP
PING INTO THE CAR OF HIS BALLOON.
is member of the signal corps of the
United States army, and this branch
of the federal service under General
James Allen. has been testing the va
rious kinds of war balloons with a
view to adopting some system of mill
tary aerOnautics for the army. Cap
tain Chandler has been active In the
work of experiment and in instructing
members of the corps in air navigation.
The United States recently estab-
lished an aerOnautic experiment sta
ton at Fort Omaha, and only a few
weeks ago army officials decided upon
the construction of Uncle Sans first
dirigible balloon, which will equal if it
does not surpass anything the French
or Germans have yet produced. 1t will
cost 100000, will be nearly 200 feet in
length and will have capacity of
10000 cubic feet. Its construction
will bring into service not only all the
inventions originating in this country
and abroad, but also several improve
ments the nature of which Is yet Sc
cret.
Another army officer who figures at
St Louis is Major Henry B. Hersey,
chief inspector of the government me-
neurological service, who went with
Waiter Wellman to Spitzbergen. A
third army aeronaut is Lieutenant
Frank s. Lahm. Jr.. who won the
James Gordon Bennett cup and the
worlds balloon racing championship
In the international contest last year
at Paris. Lieutenant Lahm expected
to participate in this years contest
at st Louis. but sickness prevent
ed. His father, Frank s. Lahm, Sr., is
one of the promoters of the affair.
1t was the capture of the cup by
Lieutenant Lahm last year and its
temporary possession by the Aero Club
of America which brought the races to
this country, where other nations
which challenge for it are required to
come, the rules STIMULATING that the
competition must be held In the ccun-
try which holds the trophy

INTERESTED IN
MO|R-BURNS BOUT

LONDON, Dec 2.-It is a long
time since the sporting public of
London has displayed such a lively
interest in an international contest
as is manifested in the fight to take
place at the National Sporting club
tonight between Tommy Burns, the
American pugilist, and Gunner Moir,
the best heavyweight fighter that
England has produced in over de-
cade.
Burns has made an excellent i'm
preston upon those who have seen
him in training since his arrival
here. In addition to the main event
between Burns and Moir, the club
has arranged several excellent pre-
liminaries. Jim Driscoll, the feath-
erweight, will meet Billy Griffen,
of Australia, and Joe Bowker, the
ex-champion featherweight, will
clash with Cockney Cohen.
The demand for tickets is greatly
in excess of the seating capacity of
the clubs amphitheater.

HEAVYWEIGHT
CHAMPIONSHIP
TOMMY BURNS AND GUNNER
NOR MEET IN 2o-ROUND CON-
TEST TONIGHT-BURNS IS FA-
VORITE IN EARLY BETTING

LONDON, Dec. Great interest
attaches to the ring contest here to-
night between Tommy Burns and
Gunner Moir No international
sporting event of recent years has
attracted so much attention as the
20-round fight for the worlds cham
pionship.
The mill will occur in the famous
National Sporting club, London.
Burns is the American and Cana
dian champion and Moir is champion
of England. The Marquis of Queens
and five-ounce gloves will be used.
Besides the title of champion, $4,000
in prize money has been hung up,
and there will be side bet of con-
siderable proportions.
Against all precedent, and in COM
pliance with Burns request, Eugene
HilbOrn, a sportsman not connected
with the club, has been chosen ref
cree. Burns is favorite at to 4
over Moir. Both men are known
as rough fighters with plenty of
gameness. Moir has been in the
ring several years and has won all Of
his fights with comparative ease,
while Burns ring achievements are
still fresh in the minds of the pub
lie. 1t is claimed that Moir has
never met man against whom he
was forced to extend himself and
that when he faces Burns the Cana
dian-American will be obliged to use
all his skill and generalship to with
stand the Englishman's rushes. Moir
will weigh about $50 pounds and
Burns 10. Moir is five feet 10
inches, while Burns is three inches
shorter than the English champion.
Moir also has the advantage in the
reach.

balloon races at st. Louis should
enlist more than passing interest.
Navigation of the air is no longer
a subject which excites the attention
OF Adventures and theorists alone. In
this country the action Of the federal
government in organizing an aeronautIC
training school, so to speak, for mem
bers OF the United States signal corps
shows what the authorities at Wash
ington, who have a reputation for con
servatism In such matters, think of
aeronautics as a practical science.
The airship contests at ST. Louis dur
Ing the week Of Oct. 81 have caused
balloOnists from all over the world to
head In that direction, not, however, in
their airships, for the aeronauts still
stick to the old fashioned railroad
when they want particularly to get to
certain place at a certain time. The
Aero Club of America is the host OF
the numerous foreigners at st. Louis
or en- route thither for the events of
what the club calls IAN aerial carni-
val" There are five of these events
the international balloon race, the air
ship and dirigible balloon race, the
gasless flying machine race, the con-
test for the Scientific American gasless
flying machine cup and the race for
the Lahm cup for covering a greater
distance than 4O2 miles. Cortland Field

America, is chairman of the reception
committee. and the fact that other

The late action OF the express com.
panies to enioin the state board OF
railroad commissioners from enforc-
ing the new maximum express rate
schedule, brings out suggestion
from Secretory Bradbury as to solv-
ing the problem. He says It might
occur to the next Legislature to pass
a bill to drive the companies out OF
business by repeating the law, and In
lieu thereof require the railroads to
carry packages by express trains
just as they do now. He says It Is Q
matter Of contract now between the
railroad companies and express COM
panies that the latser pay to the rail-
road companies 80 per cent Of their
gross receipts.

party OF ladies and gentlemen came
to Bridgeport from New York and par.
ticipated in a submerged run Of the
submarine torpedo boat Lake, owned
by the Lake Torpedo Boat Company.
The party included the president and
several members of the Aero Club OF
America; Admiral Edincott, U. s. NJ,
retired; ex-senator Thurston; Lieut..
Raider de Aquina, of the Brazilian
Legation at Washington. and Mrs.
Thurston and Mrs. ]. c. Lake. The
r1n. which lasted three hours, was re.
markable for the fact mat It was the
first submarine submergence and
cruise in America participated in by
ladies, and also from the fact that It
was the first cruise of the sort to be
in by American aerialists.
The president of the Aero Club Of
America. Mr.. Cortlandt F. Bishop, OF
New York, was accompanied by Mr..
Augustus Post, the clubs secretary.
and Mr.. Allan R. Hawisy, a governor
Of the club and one of its expert pi.
lots. After SURFACE cruise outside
the Bridgeport harbor the Lake was
submerged for two hours, during which
time complete dinner was cooked
aboard the craft and served to the
guests. The meal partook something
of the nature of banquet, for It was
followed by informal addresses from
j. C. Lake, vice president of the Lake
Company, and Mr.. Bishop. Senator
Thurston and Admiral Endicott also
entered into the spirit of the AFFAIR
and delivered appropriate remarks
while the boat rested at the bottom
of the Sound.
