The beautiful craft in which Curtlss

Williams, the wouldbe aviator, was
lifted from the twisted frame he was
delirious. his left arm was broken and
his body bruised His injuries, how
ever, are not serious.
The accident occurred on Hampstead
Plain. Mineola, where Curtiss has been
giving demonstrations for the New
York Aeronautic society. to which he
recently sold his aeroplane for $4,000.
Williams, who Is a member Of the So

While Williams had driven many an

engines he seemed to lose control OF
himself as the aeroplane scared up

OF thirty feet the craft careened
sharply to the right. swooped toward

Curtiss then took the machine and
made beautiful flight back to the

turns and ascending at one time for
more than a hundred feet, then shoot

only thirty feet above the earth.
Williams, with parting words of eau

ground, started away, He had pre-
Viously matched coins with Willard to
decide who should take the first
flight During this he eynced such
nervousness that a member of the
party remarked that perhaps he had
better not make the attempt,
The aeroplane glided swiftly on its

HARVARD EIGHT SETTLED.
Crimson Looks to Have the Best Boat
in Years,

Harvards varsity crew ended the
first part of the training season last
week, when the three crews which have
been at work since the middle of Feb
ruary-had a race in the lower basin
over the regular mile and seven-eighths
course.
This race proved to be an excellent
tryout for the varsity crew also and
served to increase the confidence which
all Harvard men have felt in their
varsity eight since the beginning of
the season. No time for the varsity
crew was given out, but as the condi-
ticns were rather bad the time in itself
probably would not have been particu
larly encouraging. Fhe crew showed a
lot of spirit and drive. however, and
forged ahead of the other two crews
in such determined manner as 70 in
dictate that it is a crew which will be
hard one to keep ahead Of. IT was a
creditable exhibition for this time of
the season and showed that Harvard
has the makings of an exceptionally
powerful eight this season and one
that will row it's best when. called upon
in a close race.
1t looks as though this fifth crew nf
Wray's was going to come somewhere
near what he has been striving for.
The men have all been taught by NVray
from the beginning OF their college
rowing and are rowing identically the
same stroke. He has been able to pick
his crew right at the start and barring
accidents there will probably not be
any changes in the order of the eight
as it is now rowing. 1t is hoped that
the two preliminary races, one with
Columbia next month and the other
with Coriell the end of May. will serve
to break up the season sufficiently to
keep it from becoming monotonous and
10 give the men the experience in rae
ing which is unquestionably OF great
value and which the oarsmen used to
get in the class and club races when q
varsity squad was not selected until
six weeks or two months before the
Yale race.
The varsity crew Is now rowing in
the same order practically as when it
first went on the water. with Sargent.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
WEAKNESS IN GENERAL LIST
In Sympathy With Further Break ir
Third Avenue.

New York, March 24.-In the absence
of positive developments affecting
property values in the news, operators
in stocks today acted largely on de-
auctions from the negative side The
operations, which were almost wholly
in the hands of the smaller profession
al classes, were significant, therefore,
of nothing more than the view of that
class. Tie fact that the violent break
in the local traction shares had not
resulted in bringing on the market any
considerable quantity of other shares
was accepted as Indicative of the good
resisting power of the market. With
this proof that prices were not ready
TO go down.. the room traders took the
alternative and tried to make them go
up. There was a further break early
in the day in Third Avenue, and weak
ness in general list in sympathy It
so slight as to suggest the shift in the
position Of the traders. Foreigners
also had a hand in causing the early
heaviness, sale for London account
amounting to several thousand shares.
A renewal of uneasiness Owe the po-
litical situation IN the Balkans was re-
ported from various financial centers
abroad. Aside from the immediate
anxieties caused by these periodical
crises in the Balkans question, the
likely to be delayed discourage the
taking of a definite speculative posi-
ton in the markets. It is the belief in
the continued unsettling influences of
that. together with various other ques-
lions. which is keeping stock market
activity at a low stage. The anthra-
cite labor question was viewed today in
rather a cheerful frame Of mind, and
asseI items were current that a wa
had been found for a settlement which
would appear in the course of the day.
The coming Of the spring
weather is a traditional influence to-
wards higher prices OF stocks and this
was taken some account of in the pro-
fessional trading today. The profess

separated, failed only owing to kiss.
Slosson's Big Lead in Third Inning.
Cutters next effort netted only 6
caroms. the score at the end of the
third inning being Slosson 274, Cutler 3.
Slosson had an opportunity Of equal
ing Sutton's average of 100 IN his fifth
inning, but after scoring $50 failed on
a difficult two-cushion shot.
on his thirteenth shot in the eighth
inning Slosson had the worries frozen
and decided to have the balls spotted.
He played the break bit wide, but a
lucky kiss gave him the count and af-
ter a general laugh, in which Cutler
joined, the Student ran out the CANA
