Accident in Wind.

VI. Moulee. who timed the flight. es.
timated hat the average height of the
aeroplane from the ground was 80
feet and that It's speed exceeded 81
miles an hour.
After re%adjusting his motor. Mr..
Wright prepared for another flight.
In the meantime. however. a strong
wind had arisen, blowing at times as
high as "a miles an hour. Neverthe.
less. Mr.. Wright launched his machine
and the aeroplane was slipping along
nicely when suddenly. when he
reached a point opposite a group OF
trees. a heavy gust of wind threatened
to drive him into the branches.
To avoid this, Mr.. Wright turned his
machine sharply. but he had lifted the
right wing too much and the left wing
came in contact with the ground.
This brought about a repetition of the
accident of August IS. when the deli.
cate Homework was deranged and
torn from a similar cause. Mr.. Wright
was not hurt. He announced that he
would be able TO resume his fights
next week.

of Thirty.E Eight Miles Per Hour

Washington, ID. C.-Orville Wright
made a flight in his aeroplanc
at Fort Myer. Va. Thursday evening.
While making the second circle of the
drill grounds Mr.. Wright pulled the
lever which controls the planes in the
wrong direction and he was compelled
TO descend in order to avoid running
into some wires. The machine en-.
circled the grounds once and was halt
round the field when the mishap oc.
Cured. The aeroplane was in the air
one minute and fifteen seconds.
At 5:5J O'Clock the aeroplane shot
out along the single track and reach
ing the end continued to travel along
the ground on its runners for about
twenty feet, when Mr.. Wright turned
the forward planes upward and the
machine gradually rose from the
ground. Mr.. Wright directed 1t toward
the other end of the field, where a
graceful turn was made for the re-
turn trip.
Begins Second Lap.
Turning directly over the starting
apparatus Mr.. Wright continued on
the second lap. Just as the machine
started to make the turn for the second

necessary for them to be locked for
repairs.

The greatest damage is that caused by the Columbia
Canal. At a number Of places the river rose above the
canal banks and breaks resulted. To repair these will
require probably ten days. In the meantime the power
supplying plants of the city are very much crippled and
any sort of emergency would not be surprising. 1t was
the flood in the canal also which caused the City to shut
off for a time the water supply. The intake pipes thru
which the water is received from the river, cross the canal
at the waters surface these immense pipes were snapped
like needles by the accumulation of debris floating down
the canal, and unless a temporary feed pipe can be rugged
up the city may suffer for lack of water.
The railroad situation has improved however, 1t was
reported at one o'clock this morning that 1000 feet OF
track and a large part of the trestle at Kingville had gone.
This will aggravate conditions very much.

Flood water at Augusta is ~receeding rapidly, and as
the water leaves the streets it is apparent that the loss has
been underestimate in addition to the disasters already
reported.
1t is found thai. the Riverside Mills, damage to plant
and loss of cotton which Aoated away, sustains a loss OF
500, 900. Reds cotton warehouse, the finest in the
South, is damaged in a large sum, but it will require a sur
vey to determine the amount. Triangular block where the
wholesale houses are assembled is badly injured. The
Wilson Morris & Co.'S warehouse has collapsed and is be-
ing raised. The Augusta Grocery Company's building is
damaged to the extent of $4,000. Hill & Mnrry escaped
serious loss. The establishments of c. D. Carr & CO.,
Paul Martin & Murphy are comparatively slightly DAM
aged. The National Biscuit Co., building wrecked. The
Central Grammar School is badly hurt and the Davidson
Grammar School is damaged seriously.
In addition to the fires already reported it develops
that there were ten smaller houses burned in different Sec
tons of the city. AS the water goes down further It's
feared that damages similar to the triangular block DAM
age will develop.
AS to the loss of life % bodies have been recovered
and corpses are found e%verylhour or so; the Captain OF
the River Swan, which got in today, reports that ne saw
on the up trip at least s. corpses, all negroes except one
There are reports of many drownings among negro
farm hands in the lower valley. The Chronicle estimates
the death list at sixty.
