SEEKS HEARING ELSEWHERE
Evident Object of Thaw Bankruptcy
Proceedings.

Pfttsburg, Aug. l livery move in
the Thaw bankruptcy proceedings has
shown the determination of Thaw and
his counsel to take his case out of
the New York courts and force hear
ing on the question of his mental con-
dition in the courts of Pittsburg.
Local attorneys say that any of
Thaw's creditors have the legal right
to appeal to the United States court
here to have Referee Blair's order of
Wednesday adjudging Thaw bank
rupt set aside on the ground that he
is insane. This would carry the ques-
ton of Thaw's sanity before the Unit
ed States district court, which would
decide whether Thaw has a right to
proceed as bankrupt.
The question of Thaw's sanity also
can be raised at the meeting of the
creditors, which takes place within
ten days. Some believe that soon
after Thaw is brought here to face his
creditors an inquest in lunacy will be
instituted in local county courts.
If the verdict in such inquest should
be that Thaw is sane New York au-
thorities probably would be unable to
got him back to that state, where the
only ground for holding him a pris-
oner at present is that he is insane.

ACCIDENT TO AERoPLANE.
Wilbur Wright Attempts a Daring
- Method Of Descent.


Lemans, France, Aug. 1.-THE
Wright aeroplane suffered an accident
which will require several days and
possibly week to repair.
After two superb flights Wilbur
Wright essayed a new and daring
method of descent He stopped the
motor at height of seventy-fve feet
and tried to come to earth on a grad
ual descending glide. The calcula-
lions were not absolutely correct and
the left wing of the aeroplane came in
contact with the ground. This tore the
frame of the machine. Mr.. Wright
was not injured --, = - ~
Mr.. Wright's first flight eclipsed all
his former efforts. He made seven
complete tours of the field over the
tops Of the trees According to the
official time he was in the air min
utes and So seconds. The aeroplanist
was incommoded by ffteen-mile
breeze but i'll spite of this he showed
greater facility in maneuvering than
he did when there was dead calm.
His landing was easy and successful
In every way.

Winnipeg, Man., Aug. l. l-About a
quAfter Of a million dollars was paid
to CahaMan Pacific railroad strikers
at the Merchants bank here by Pay
master Mcpherson. The men gath
cred early and the lineup numbered
over two thousand. With amounts
paid out at other points in the West
the sum distributed was close to a
million.
= The total number of strikebreakers
already at work in this city is 200 and
1t Is said to be the programme of the
company to increase this number from
day to day by bringing men in from
outside points. While considerable
number of the newcomers are common
laborers there are many expert me-
chanics, who are employed day and
night to keep rolling stock in order.
The men say that the company is hay
Ing trouble with it's engines and to
this fact is attributed delays to which
trains have been subject. The atti-
tude of the men who are out remains
unchanged. They speak hopefully,
their organization is thorough and To-
cal men are kept accurately informed
of developments at other points. It is
authoritatively stated that no strike
benefits will be paid before Wednes-
day, Aug. 26, three weeks from COM
mencement of the strike.
At Medicine Hat sixteen strike
breakers from the Santa Fe railway
were brougr in. Chinese restaurant
proprietors refused to serve meals to

yards on special car.
