Zeppelin satisaed.
 Friedrichshafen, Aug. fs.--Count zeppelin made the following statement today to the Associated Press:
 T am heartily satisfied at the suc- cess of Wilbur Wright at Lemans, the more so because I always have con. sidered the eRorts of Americans as greatly advancing. the final solution of the aerial problem.
 This was so even during the period when others said that aerial naviga- tiop was a humbug. I, can not see, however, that Mfr. ,Wright's success will minimize the utility of my airS ships. While I readily admit that the trickiness of balloon always must be reekoned with, yet the motor bal- loon as meaps of. conveyance cer- tafniy is superior to the aeroplane. The aeroplane requires great dexterity on the long practice for successful flight when any one can travel on an air ship. don't mention the inability of the aeroplane to ascend to any. great altitude nor It's limited scope of action. because Improvements in. this respect are only a question Of time, but let us say, for instance, that in time of war an airship and an aeroplaIe were reconnoitering the position of the en- emy.
 '"The results obtained by the aero- piainists with the present apparatus would of necessity be unsatisfactory because it Is necessary for the single person on board the aeroplane to give his entire attention 10 the management of the machine This work requires great concentration. on the other hand, balloon can carry a number of persons who can. devote all their time to observation.
 Both the aeroplane and the naviga- ble balloon may perish In a storm or be destroyed by protectiles; both are imperfect as yet We are pulling on the same rope and common expression will lead to the accomplishment of our common purpose"
 In conclusion Count Zeppelin said he desired to send through the Associated Press his heartiest thanks for the nu- merous messages of sympathy in the construction of his balloon which were received from all parts of the United States.

SUFFERS ACCIDENT
MIR. wRTGHTss AEROPI.ANE DE-
 RANGED AND TORN.
Just Before fhe Accident Mr. wright Had Made I've Flights and
 Executed Many Be-
 wfiaerang Turns.

Lemans, France. Aug. Is.-The Wright aeropiane suffered an accident this morning. which will require sew eral days and possibly a week to re- pair. After two superb flights Wilbur Wright esBayed a new and daring de- scent. He stopped the motor at a height of ssventy-five feet and tried to come to earth on a gradual descending glide. The calculations were not: ah- solutely correct and the left wing of the heroplare' came in contact with the ground. Thls tore the frame of the machine. MT. Wright was not in- jured.
 MT Wright said he did not regard the accident as serious and explained that there were only incidental expe- riences devoted to acquiring complete mastery of the dialcuIties of aviation and the execution of new naneuvera. MT. wright'a snrst night tAis morning 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 eight minutes, and three seconds.
 MT. Wrights second flight which lasted two minutes, was a novel one. The aeroplanist scared and descended at win. executing bewildeffnk turns, suddenly, as viewed from the grand stand. the machine lost it's speed and began enrving swiftly toward the earth. All appeared to be going we'll until 1t was stuRHea ieeward and the delicate frame work struck the ground. with the result that 1t was deranged and torn.
 Mir. Wright calmly stepped out and examined the wreck. He was quickly surrounded by friends, to whom he ex- plained that there had not been an ac- cident in the air. but he decided to try new descent. He shut of the motor at a height of seventy sflvA feet ana endeavored to float downward. The real cause of the accident was to at- tempt to land exactly on fbtlns spot or his departure. The dsnagev can be Fe-l paired easily. ,~er-' ss~f
 Among the spectators were Miss Nor gan, daughter of-J. P. Morgan. H. Kahferer. the, engineer of the French. dirigible balloon VIII de Paris; and oth- CT French enthusiasts.

half of his wealth lay west of the
Alleghenies. Some idea of his ex-
tensive holdings may be had from an
advertisement which appeared in the
Alexandria (Virginia) Gazette of the
time, which contained several col

to lease or sell. He offered to lease
5000 acres of Mount Vernon land,
the properties known as the River
Farm, the Union Farm, the Dogue
Run Farm and the Muddy Hole Farm,

were @9744 acres on the southeast
