eLIDDEN PLANS
AIRsHIP LINE
oiRIoIeLE BALLOONS TO CARRY
PASSENGERS BETWEEN PHIL
ADELPHiA AND NEW YORK.
BALDWIN.S CONTRACT
SHIPS TO be LARGE ENOUGH TO
CARRY FROM TWENTY TO
THIRTY PASSENGERS.

Washington.-At a banquet at the
National Press Club Saturday night,
Capt. Thomas 8. Baldwin, who has
just delivered dirigible to the United
States army at Fort Myer, announced
that he had been given a contract, soon
to be signed. to construct airships for
an aerial passenger line to ply be-
tween Philadelphia and New York, in
corporated in Massachusetts about six
weeks ago by Charles ]. Glidden.
The Glidden company recognized in
Captain Baldwin the first practical in
ventor of a dirigible which could be
used for commercial purposes, and
sent Professor Clayton of the Blue
Hill observatory at Boston to make OBJ
servations and report on the speed and
endurance trials Of the Baldwin dirigi-
BILE at Fort Myer. Professor Clayton
was authorized, II satisfied with the in
vention. to have Captain Baldwin at
once sign the contract for the Lassen-
ger airships. This was urged by Pro-
fessor Clayton, but Captain Baldwin
induced the company to hold off until
he completed his contract with the
government, when he would devote his
cutlTe dtteutlOu " tHt Coupdhy
terests. This was agreed to.
The passenger airships will be of the
present Baldwin type, semi-rigid, with
gas bags of the latest vulcanized silk
material, with balloon nets and net
ting. They will be from $50 to 200
feet in length, and will be capable of
carrying twenty to thirty passengers
or more each.
In time, they will equal or even ex-
Gel the length of the Zeppelin airship,
recently destroyed, and consequently
capable Of carrying more passengers.
The number of airships to be con-
structed will not be determined until
Captain Baldwin meets the representa-
tives Of the company at Boston.
In an interview with Lieutenant
Lahm, for the aeronautical board. Mr..
Baldwin was informed that he made an
official speed of 1875 miles an hour
in his remarkable endurance run Of
Saturday.
Therefore. as 1t stands now, and
without claim, Mr.. Baldwin will be
paid only s5.727.50.

TO RECoMPENsE CATHOLICS.
Proposed Indemnification for Use of
Church Buildings.

Secretary of War Taft and Lieut.. Col.
j. a. Hull. judge advocate, Department
of the East, yesterday attended a hearing
before the House committee OF insular
affairs, which had under consideration the
claims of the Roman Catholic Church In
the Philippines for $2,Jo0.a00 lndemniflca-
ton on account of damage to and oc-
cupancy of church buildings in the
islands by United States troops during
the Spanish war Col Hull was chair
man of the army board on church claims,
appointed to sift these claims and make
recommendations to settlement. The
report OF the board recommended that the
church be Eald S3G3.OOD in full.
Secretary Taft told the committee that
in his opinion the United States would be
getting off cheapy If it allowed twice
the sum named by the board, or paid the
church at least S5Uo,U0o. Col. Hull in
clined of the same opinion. which he
said represented as we'll the sentiment of
the board. That body, in fixing the
amount of 5000 had taken into account
nothing but computed rental for military
occupancy. and had made no allowance
for damages to the buildings. or their
demolition in the course of war, or the
losses of the Catholic Church by troop
looting, considerable of which happened.
Secretary Taft explained that the Ro-
man Catholic Church in the Philippines
being self dependent, is in a low state
financially, all of its revenues being de-
rived from inhabitants of the Islands,
themselves rule, very poor. he
thought especially in view of this con-
dition, that the United States should
show more liberality than contemplated
by the estimate of the army board
and that at least to some extent. the
damages resultant of our occupancy OF
church buildings should be made good.
The committee has not yet reached a
decision.

It over a basin hold the head down
in any way. This only causes further
rush OF blood to the broken tissues in the
nose. The head should be held UP and
back. the flow being caught in handker-
chiefs or cloths. One of the most ef-
fcCtiye ard simple means of checking

Lip Near the under surface of the lip
runs the artery that supplies tho interior
nasal passages. where tho ruptures occur,
T. this is pressed the flow of blood is me-
chaaicaIy checked. thus allowing the
blood around the broken tissues to con-
ge1l and seal up the opening. If merely
pressing with tho finger does not succeed
place a wad of paper under the lip and
fold the lip over it. holding it down tight,
says Womans Life. Again. if this does
not succeed and a drug store is near. get
some adrenaIin. saturate a piece of cot
ton with il and apply to the interior OF
