WEATHER Chief CALLS.
He Advises Taft to Make Frequent
Speeches to Labor.

Cincinnati, Sept. H.-Willis L. Moore,
chief of the weather bureau, and a po-
litical adviser of Judge Taft, arrived
from Washington today for the pur-
pose of urging Judge Taft to make fire.
quent speeches to labor organizations.
Before returning east Mr.. Moore, after
stating that his sympathies were with
organized labor as once having been
an active member of a labor organiza-
ton and having later made scientific
study of labor problems, had this to
say respecting the position taken by
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor:
Il approve of the decision reached
some months ago, by the representa-
tives of the constituent bodies of the
American Federation of Labor to stand
by their friends and to punish their
enemies, but in company with many
other friends of labor, resent the mar
row partisan attitude of Mr. Gompers
and a part of the council of the Fedora
tion of Labor in their effort to impose
upon Republican members of organized
labor, well their Democratic
comrades, by falsely charging Mr.. Taft
with being the father of injunctionS
and an enemy of labor Instead of
Gompers attempting to decide who are
enemies of labor and who are friends,
why does he not give the facts with
regard to the records of the two lead
ing candidates for the presidency and
then rely upon the high intelligence
and loyalty of the Individual members
to decide each for HIMSELF

titled to assemble there at O'Clock
to hear him talk. Over 1000 of them
gathered while Mr.. Bryan, at Deer
Park, was protesting to local COM
mittee that he would make no speech
He finally was prevailed upon to take
the three-mile drive and Shake hands
with those in the assemblage, with the
understanding that he should not
speak and that there should be no
hand-ciapping.
The people gave every evidence of
their pleasure at meeting the Demo-
cratic candidate for president though
they were disappointed at not hearing
him, and as he departed they vio-
lated their pledge and applauded him
literally.
The day was one of absolute quiet
and rest with the exception of the
short journey to Mountain Lake park.
And in consequence Mr.. Bryan pre-
pared himself for the strenuous week
ahead of him.

HIS HAT MISSING.
1t Has Not Been Seen Since DIR. Rus
tin Was Shot.

Omaha, Neb., Sept. 1.-two addi-
tional detectives have been placed at
work on the mystery surrounding the
death of DIR. Frederick A. Rustin. The
hat worn by the physician the night of
the tragedy has not yet been found and
this is considered Important in view If
the fact that the pistol with which the
shooting was done is also missing.
Various theories have been advanced
about the hat and the fact that it has
not turned up has caused much specu-
lation as to how it disappeared.
Mrs. Rustin was questioned about
the hat the day of the inquest, but her
testimony did not disclose anything
which would enlighten the jury. She
merely stated that it had not been
seen. That the hat disappeared through
the same agency which made away
with the pistol is now regarded as
established and the police are trying
to associate the two articles in way
which may throw some light on the
manner in which the shooting oc-
Cured.
Rustin wore a black derby hat on the
night of the shooting and it has been
suggested he might have placed it
against his abdomen as a mark for the
person who shot him in the event his
death occurred in that manner. 1t is
also agreed that had the bullet passed
through the hat before entering his
body it would have prevented powder
marks showing either on the clothing
or on his skin.
Davis is still at the home of Luther
Kountze. his nephew, and is said to be
recovering from the shock incident to
the Rustin shooting and inquest and
his illness following his own attempt
at suicide.
a new tack was taken in the case
by the authorities this morning when
a cha Of the
investigation relegating the police to
second position in the conduct of the
case. In future, detectives and Off
GERS detailed on the case Will report
all evidence they discover direct to the
prosecutor rather than to police depart
ment. This action was taken because
of adverse criticism directed against
the police department for falling to re-
port certain clews and findings to the
legal department because of their ap-
parent insignificance to the police, but
which later were found to be of inn
portance in fixing the responsibility 1or

CAN MAKE AZ MILES.
That Is What OrviIle Wright Claims
for His Machine

Washington, Sept. 14.-Orville Wright
planned another flight in his aeroplane
at FIT. Myer this afternoon. He was
early at the aeronautical testing
grounds, experimenting the correction
OF few minor details on his machine.
In Saturdays flight the motor, which
so far acted perfectly, missed on a
sylinder very frequently. Mr.. Wright
said this was due to the fact that the
magnet had worked loose, but that this
would be remedied today.
Mr.. Wright maintained an average
speed of nearly SO miles an hour dur
ing his short flight Saturday afternoon
and he says the machine is capable of
making A miles. Mr.. Wright says that
he will not attempt to make this speed
until he makes the official speed trial
before the army board, in which he
must fly over a course five miles with
and against the wind. If he makes the
A miles he will get a bonus of $4,000
on his contract price of $4,000, which is
based on a speed of 40 miles an hour.
If less than Sc miles is made the ma
chine will be rejected. 1t will probably
be two weeks before the official trials
of his aeroplane are completed. Before
announcing his readiness for the tests
before the army board Mr.. Wright will
make numerous flights. He will take
his machine with him and after he has
made several two-man flights, lasting
for an hour, he will announce himself
ready for the official trials.
In a test of his motor after making
a few adjustments this morning Mr..
Wright found that his motor was
making ], ,420 revolutions per minute and
that his propellers were travelling at
the rate of 400 revolutions. This is an
increase of 180 revolutions in the mo-
tor, but lacks 80 revolutions of the
speed which Mr.. Wright had hoped to
get before putting in a larger sprocket
on the shaft. To get the maximum
speed from the propellers which he
uses, Mr.. Wright claims they should
make 450 revolutions per minute.
Above 450 the power is lost.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept. 14.-Presi-
