A|RSH|P SPEED TEST
SEVERE
WRIGHT BROTHERS MUST MAKE
SOME REMARKABLE REC.
ORDS IN THEIR FLIGHTS.

Washinton, June %. -- Despite the
marvellous records that have been es-
tabliShed by the Wright brothers in
this country and abroad to comply
with the governments specifications,
Orville Wright, in his trial flights at
Fort Myer, soon To begin, will be COM
PEELED to meet certain conditions that

accompanied by a passenger, will be
required to remain in continuous
flight without landing for one hour.
carrying sufficient fuel for II flight
of 125 miles.
This feat has already been accom-
plished by Wilbur Wright. 1t is the
speed trial, however, which imposes
conditions that have never before pre-
scented themselves.
Orville Wright, who has elected to
complete the tests he began last fall,
must fly over a measured course of
five miles from Fort Meyer and return.
In order to receive the contract price
of $4,000, Il speed of 40 miles an hour,
With and against the wind, must be
maintained, If less than 36 miles an
hour is made, the machine will not be
accepted and 10 per cent. of the con-
tract price will be deducted for each
mile less than 40 miles made in the
speed trial. A bonus of 10 per cent.
will be paid for each mile above 40.
The rough, hily country surrounding
Fort Myer, over which the speed trial
must be made, is causing Orvllc
Wright some uneasiness. No cross
country flight over an even country
has ever been made by a heavier
than-air flying machine.
A clump of trees or a small shed
will send an air current upward that
may do much or little to disturb the
equilibrium of the aeroplane.

me that the country to the west of

Chicago H., June 22-The constant
rivalry between the railroads bidding
for traffic from the middle west to
New York is to be increased by the
proposed short line route, which will
cut off approximately one hundred
miles of the3 distance and lessen the
grade so the time will be materially
reduced So far little has been in the
papers concerning this new road,
which is backed by the same finan-
ciers who are operating the New York
Central, including Mr.. Hartman, Mr.
Morgan and the Vanderbilts.
1t is expected that the entrance of
this road into Philadelphia will cause
bitter war with the Pennsylvania
system.

Chicago Record Herald, states that
this new route will be along the Lake

OVERHEAD CROSSING
NEARLY READY
RAPID WORK ON STEVENS
STREET BRiDGE-MiSS ROB
INSON RESIGNS.

The long desired Stevens street
overhead crossing, which has been the
! bone of contention between the city
and the Northern Pacific for so long
and over which there have been so
many discussions between the rail-
road and the north side residents, is
at last beginning to take shape and
before many more days people will be
able to make use of it rather than
take the long walk down to Woody
street. The structure was ordered
some time ago by the city as the only
solution to the dispute which was
brought about by the closing of the
footpath across the right of-Way at A
street and work on it was started
about two weeks ago. The bridge,
, which stands nearly SO feet above the
tracks, which it crosses at Stevens
street, is led up to by broad and easy
steps at both ends. Both of these
approaches have been finished and
nearly three-quarters Of the bridge
proper is ready. The crossing is built
entirely of wood with an eight foot
pathway and should be fully capable
of handling all of the people who will
use it. There remains at present but
one span, the southern one, to be fin
ished and a couple of days will see
this accomplished and, the passage
, ready.
