there was the greatest ~ten1pta tfon- to
increase the size of the circles, and
get out over the bEeken couatry to the
southwark, but in case the motor had
stopped; this probably swould have
meant landing in trees which would
result in torn wings ana the aviator
was not taking any such risks. Two
or three times on the flight Mr..
Wright was seen to wave his hand to
the spectators and once he adjusted
his cap. 1t was cold and windy in the
upper heights owing to the speed or
the machine, although there was little
breeze on the ground.
Previous Records
By his wonderful flight at Fort Myer
today. Orville E. Wright practically
doubled the best official record ever
made by a heavier than air machine.
De LAGRANGE, president of the Aviation
club. of France, established a new
worlds record up to that time by re-
manning in the air 20 minutes "a AS
seconds. He circled the field at Issy,
near Paris, Is and a half times, and
covered a distance of 15Z miles. On
Monday De LAGRANGE after installing
a fuel tank of increased capacity on
his machine made flight of 81 min
utes, but the record was not allowed to
stand, three minutes being deducted
on account of the machine having
touched the ground while making the
first round of the field.
M. De LaGrange's sensational flights
set all Europe agog, and particularly
as the foreign field of aviation had but
lately been invaded by an American,
Wilbur Wright. brother of the young
man who accomplished today at the
army post overlooking Washington
the worlds most spectacular trip in a
flying machine not inflated by gas The
preparatory flights of Wilbur Wright
on the field of Lemans, France, had
promised notable achievements. but
the American aeroplanist was able to
remain in the air less than 20 minutes
when De LAGRANGE succeeded in estab-
fishing new figures both as to duration
of flight and distance covered. The ac-
claim occasioned by the distinguished
Frenchman's performance, however,
was in no way disconcerting to Wilbur
Wright, who still expressed confidence
that he would be the better able to full
fill the condition of the French COM
petition.

CALLED THE POLICE.
Gem Hughes and Street Car Man in
Mix Up.

It took a big policeman and a dep
uty or two to keep peace between Ad-
jutant General James w. F. Hughes
and Charles H. Hixon. assistant super
intendent of the Topeka railway, last
night in front of the transfer station.
Both men were fighting mad when the
police appeared and according to each
others version, they were both- -
liars.
Il seems that up near Thirteenth
street on Kansas avenue, a motorman
had started his train before he was
given a signal from the conductors in
charge and at the time large num-
Der of women and children were
boarding the cars. One woman,
stranger in the city, was dragged for
several yards, but luckily she received
no serious injury. Several children
were thrown to the pavement and
without the quick action of General
Hughes, who held the people back and
rang down the motorman. the injury
list would have stared the Topeka
Street railway in the face for a num-
Der of years.
Gen. Hughes at once came down
to the transfer station and going to
Mr.. HiXon, who was handling the cars
at this corner, told him that motor
man had started without a signal from
the conductor and had endangered
many lives. Mr.. Hixon. misunderstood
the general, and thinking that he had
referred to a car near the station that
he had signalled ahead himself, he
told the general that as he had worked
at this business for the last eighteen
years, he desired information from no
one.
1t can be readily seen what happen
cd. Both men Immediately swore by
their own story and not until a white
heat had been reached did they real
ize their mistake and then neither
would apologize, but carried the argu-
ment to such an extent that the police
had to interfere.

CANNON IS DEFIANT.
Declares He Will Do just the Same
as Ever If Reelected.

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. 9.-The state
arsenal was well filed when Chairman
West called the Republican state con-
vention to order today When a few
minutes later he introduced Speaker
Cannon as chairman of the convention,
the delegates arose and cheered vIgor-
ousIy.
Speaker Cannon eulogized the admin
istration Of President Roosevelt and de-
clared the record of the Republican
party was an open book and upon that
record the campaign would be fought.
He defended the rules of the house of
representatives and declared the mi
norfty members during the last session
of congress for two months obstructed
in every possible way the transaction
of business.
Referring to union labor Mr.. Cannon
said he believed the laboring men
should organize, but thought it wrong
for few leaders to attempt to control
the labor vote Mr.. Cannon declared
with great emphasis that if he were re-
elected to congress he would never vote
for any bill that provided a law for one
class as against another. The speaker
aroused the enthusiasm of the conven-
ton when he said: --
This republic of ours is not worth
three hurrahs in the place that burns
with fire and birthstone If it has within
its borders privileged classes. Rich or
poor, wise. unwise- The law of civili-
cation should spread over all alike"
Recess until afternoon.
