ENGLAND IS ENVIOUS
OF WRlGHT'S STUNTS
Leading Paper of London Tries to
Show That Aviators of Great
Britain Exceeded Ameri-
cans Feats

LONDON, May 5.--The Times prints
this morning a statement denying the
governments alleged apathy toward
aviation. 1t says that Captain J. W.
Dunno of the royal engineers, after
several years experience, made an
aeroplane that was superior to the
Wrights' machine, and in secret ex-
periments in Scotland two years ago
succeeded in making a fight of twelve
miles in a circular course, in which ne
proved beyond doubt, according 70
the statement, that in efficiency and
ease of control the Wrights had been
outdone.
That was the reason, says the Times,
that the war office has made no at
tempt to engage the services or the
Wrights or secure their machine.
A new machine has been built re-
Gently under Dunnes supervision at
Fernborough and everything was pre-
pared for flights on large scale, when
a few days ago Dunno suddenly sew
cred his connection with the balloon
factory.
The Times adds: ut is not known
what reasons forced Dunno to adopt
this serious step, which may be fraugnt
with the gravest consequences to this
country"
DUNES invention is a bi-plane. It's
construction differs from the aero
planes already known.

PRISON BUILDINGS
DESTROYED BY FIRE
Blaze In Oregon State Penitentiary
Causes $4,000 Loss-convicts
Are Locked in Cells by
Guards

SALEM, Ore, May 5.-The foundry,
holding room and polishing room build
ings of the Northwest stove works at
the oregon state penitentiary were de-
stroyed by fire last night, causing
damage to the amount of $4,000
The fire originated in blast in the
afternoon and smoldered until late to-
night. The flames we're carried through
the buildings along greasy shaftings
and We're we'll under Roadway when
discovered.
The burned buildings were 100 feet
from the main structure.
At the first alarm all of the prison
guards were placed around the build
ing and the TRUSTEES were released. As
the flames advanced it became APP
parent that the main structure was not
in great danger unless explosions oc-
CURED from the gasoline tanks, and
the prisoners were kept in their cells,
though under heavy guard.
The fire-fighting facilities We're totally
Inadequate and the only attempt made
was to prevent the flames spreading TO
the great structures, where more than
500 convicts were confined.
All of the buildings destroyed We're
renode1ed recently and thousands OF
dollars worth of expensive machinery
is ruined.

MILITARY POLICY OF
RUSSIA READJUSTED
LINE OF DEFENSE IN POLAND
ABANDONED
Troops to Be centered in Strong
Chain of Fortresses Close to
Heart of the Em-
pire

ST. PETERSBURG, May 4.-The un-
expected display of military activity by
Austria Hungary during the Balkan
crisis and the realization of her own
weakness since the Russo-Japanese
war has led to far-reaching readjust-
ment of Russias military policy,
which is now engrossing the attention
of the general staff.
The position of the Russian troops in
Poland, which projects nearly 300
miles west of Russia proper, and is
surrounded on three sides by Austrian
and German territory, has been found
too precarious under the new condi-
lions, and it has practically been de-
cided to abandon the extended lines of
defense and adopt a new line farther
to the east, with more powerful fort
resses at Vovno and Brest Litovsky.
In case of war the most westerly
parts of Poland would be abandoned
without serious defense and mobiliza-
ton would be carried on behind the
new chain of fortresses. The change
vanced fortified positions, which will
be dismantled, several of them being
destroyed
The news Of the evacuation which is
flltering among the troops started a
fantastic rumor that Russia was about
to sell Poland to Germany and several
newspapers have taken 1t up.
The change will scarcely be agreeable
to France, since the appearance of a
powerful army within striking distance
of Berlin was counted upon to relieve
the pressure in the direction of France
in time of war

WEARS OUT OPPONENT
End Comes After Several Knockdowns

1snenIal to rhe Herald.l

VENICE. May 4.-Charles (Kid) Dali
ton ended Fred Corbett's higher as
pirations tonight, putting his man out
in the fifteenth round of their scheo-
uled twenty-round battle before the
Windward Athletic club of this CITY,
After Corbett had been fioored by three
hard swings, each time taking long
count. the police, seeing that FREDDIE
was all in. stepped into the ring and
stopped the bout, which Referee TOM
snnv Walsh awarded to Dalton. The pat
lie was fairly even up to the maj
round. and although Dalton scored sew
eral knockdowns, he failed to get TO
Corbett until the latter began TO roush
IL with him. This willingness to mix
it with the Kid probably lost Corpett
the fight. for in standoff boxing he ex-
called Dalton and in rounds in which
he fought this style he outclassed the
smuggling Kid.
Al the beginning of the battle Cor
b@tt started in with the idea or swap
ming punches with his rough antago-
mist, but soon abandoned this and tried
to outlook the Los Angeles lad. Dali
ton waded in and kept after his man,
infighting and effective swings. The
fight was a bloody one and was VIII
messed by a large crowd.
The first preliminary was between
Hobo Dougherty and Dick Winters.
The battle was fast, and only the
gameness of the colored boxer kept
him on his feet, as Dougherty went
after his man with a vim and with hard
chops and upperouts had him to the
bad in the early rounds. 1t went the
full six periods. Dougherty being
awarded the decision by Referee Bill
Aldrich, who handled the preliminaries.
The second preliminary was between
Young Barton and Joe Ives. Ives took
the place of Young Russell on one
days notice and fought a game and
clever battle. He had all the better of
it as every stage, and would have
finished his man quickly had the latter
not held on by a neck hold. AS 1t was,
the knockout came in the fourth round

NEW YORK. May 4-Forty-seven cars
oranges; one mixed car and one car lemons
sold. Market remains unchanged. Weather
clear and favorable.
NEW YORK, May 4-The Daily Fruit Woriu
reports that the lemon market, both on cali
forna and imported lemons, is In a frighuul
condition, caused by the frantic tactics or the
importers to make an effect on congress 20
prevent the needed advance In the rate OF IN IN
port duty on lemons for the protection OF the
California production.
Along early I'm the season, shortly after the
Sicily earthquake which interrupted the ship
ment Of lemons from Mediterranean ports, an
attempt was made to reduce the normal ship
ments from Mediterranean ports, so as to IN
fuenoe the price Of lemons in the market ana
TO prove that California did not need any tur-
Their protection than was now already anorded
in the / cent per pound duty of the old Dingley
bill In line with this attempt to control an
influence on foreign lemons. the Fruit World
advises that only 100000 boxes OF Medlter-
ranean lemons are anoat for American ports
as against 900 boxes same date last year
and as against $4,000 boxes the same GATE Two
years ago.
ply OF Sicily lemons, the market Is in a col
lapsed and deplorable condition and every ef-
fort to advance prices SO that an argument
could be made against California has failed.
With the heroic plan to absolutely influence
the market upward the importers have Tor the
first time in the history Of the lemon industry
absolutely abandoned shipments, and word has
been sent out officially that the bankers nave
cancelled credits against importations to make
the argument that California really does not
need any further protection.
The cargo ex steamship Delphine, with 27OOO
boxes and the cargo ex San Georgia, with IA
0OO boxes, are expected 10 sail the end OF TINS
week.
In their attempt to influence the situation
the importers of italian lemons have simply
emphasized the needs Of California in this re-
spect. The actual amount of lemons imported
from Italy into the United States Is not nearly
so serious as the haphazard method in which
they are marketed and carload lots Of 10000
to 1000 boxes are left to accidental demand OF
brokers and dealers all over the country. Lead
ing shippers have said for a long time that
the amount of foreign lemons was not nearly
so serious as the method by which they were
handled As 1t is, however, the markets are
in a deplorable condition throughout the coun-
try and carloads and trainloads of lemons are
sold below actual price of freight transporta-
ton all Of which simply emphasizes the de-
mands of California on this important indus
try and there is no doubt but what congress
will take cognizance of the situation as 1t ex-
lists.
