OFFICIALS HELD RESPONSIBLE
BLAMED FOR RECENT DEATHS
ON INDIANAPOLIS TRACK.
Coroner Claims That the Course Was
Not Properly Prepared for
Automobile Racing.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, August 2S.-The
Indianapolis Motor Speedway Company's
officers are held responsible by Coroner
Blackwell for the death of william
Bourque and Harry Holcolmb. driver and
mechanician of a Knox car that was
wrecked during the automobile races
August 10. Coroner Blackwells report
was made public last night. 1t recon-
mended an investigation by a grand jury.
Bourque and Holcolmb were the first
Of several persons killed on the course
during three days Of racing. The coroner
says that the course was not properly
built for racing and that for 200 feet at
the place In the track where Bourque and
Holoolmb lost their lives the broken
rock surface. imperfectly welded with
asphaltum. had been torn by the wheels
of the cars. There was not sufficient
foundation for the roadway, the coroner
declares.
Further, the coroner says, there was
an open ditch twenty inches wide and two
feet deep at the edge of the track and
when Bourque and Holcolmb's machine
struck this ditch the car was battered
to pieces and its occupants were mangled.
coroner, the car would have held up
right and the two men would not have
been killed. The coroner concludes:
1T Is clear to my mind that the In
dianapolis Motor Speedway Company
knew there was going to be loss Of
life and limb. The surroundings indi-
Gated everything Of that kind. They were
prepared with a hospital. ambulance
forces and every convenience to take care

minutes SO 2-5 seconds, was off1cially pro-
tested on the double ground that he en-
tered with a Vivinus motor, but substitute

article 8 of the regulations. which pro-
vides that all material employed on the
ground be approved by the committee
August 20, two days before the contests
opened. The Gnome motor only arrived
on the grounds Thursday Of this week.
Farman claimed that he had the au-
thorization of the sportive committee to
use the GnOme motor, but Latham, whose
record of S3O7 miles was beaten by Far
man. claimed that this Is insufficient and
insisted that the matter go before the
full committee.
The committee rendered decision ia
vorable to Farman when Farman pro-
duced written authorization from three
members of the sportive committee to use
the Gnome motor.
The committee this morning changed It's

CHICAGO PROFESSOR UNEARTHs
MARVELLOUS PLACE IN CHINA.
IT'S Model for the World, Says He
Beggars Work and Chill

CHICAGO, August 2S.-Chentu. a city
lying deep in western China. but more
modern than New York or Chicago. Is
described by Prof. f. D. Burton of the
University of Chicago. The city was
taken by the professor as an excellent IL
lustration of the new impulse toward civil
lization in the far east.
According to Prof. Burton. Chentu is
far ahead Of both New York and Chicago.
A chief of police who has ordered all
beggars from the streets and who teaches
the indolent to work according to the
precepts of modern sociology. head OF
the street cleaning department who keeps
the city cleaner than New York or even
Paris. superintendent of schools who is
instilling modern education in law and
mining and engineering as rapidly as
possible-these are features OF the strange
story. The narrative sheds a new light
on China and her people.
Cleaner Than Paris.
Dr. Burton was sent by the university
about a year and a half ago to study edu-
cational conditions in the far east.
short time thereafter Prof. 7. c. Cham
berlin was dispatched as fellow COM
missioner, but he encircled the globe, 60
ing in the opposite direction. The two
met in eastern China and thence went
together into the little known western
region, where they found the remarkable
city. DR.. Chamberlin returned to Chi
cago by way Of New York yesterday. DIR.
Burton reached this city several days
ago.

cleaning department of Chentu is man

SLOW PROGRESS AGAINST VINO
ZEPPELIN AIRSHIP DELAYED ON
TRIP TO BERLIN.
Waiting Crowds Give Up Hope of
Seeing Vessel Tonight-Try
Again Tomorrow.

BERLIN, August 2s.-The people OF
Berlin are keenly disappointed at the
non-arrival of the Zeppelin airsilip, which
left Nuremburg at 2:1O o'clock this morn
ing, on the second stage of it's journey
from Friedrichshafen to Berlin and when
at late hour this afternoon it became
evident that Zeppelin would not arrive
here until after dark, If at all tonight,
the crowds on the Tempelhof parade
ground and in the other public places OF
the city began to disperse.
The local newspapers issued extra edi-
tions showing the slow progress of the
airship against the wind over upper Ba-
varia and Saxony. but all hope of seeing
Zeppelin III arrive here today ended
when 1t was officially announced that II
the count was not able to reach Berlin
by daylight he would stay at Bitterfeld
until tomorrow morning.
1t is estimated that not less than
100000 strangers came into Berlin TO-
day to witness the arrival Of the Ia
nous balloon. The military authori-
ties issued an order to the people OF the
city advising them of the route the bal
loon would take in it's flight above Ber-
lin. The order closes with these words:
"The general in command requests the
public to maintain bearing commen-
surate with this great day of Joy, for
which they owe thanks to the emperor.
and to remain perfectly quiet during
the actual landing of the airship in or
der that the instructions Of the officers
may be heard"
BAYREUTH, Germany, August 2s.-
The Zeppelin airship that left Nurem-
burg at ten minutes past o'clock this
morning for Berlin passed here at three
minutes past Z. The dirigible was Ia
boring against adverse winds. Engineer
Duerr threw out a card saying that the
machinery was running smoothly and
that all on board the vessel we're we'll.
Zeppelin Ill left Friedrichshafen for
Berlin q distance of $50 miles, yester-
day morning at 4:3o. A broken propeller
and defective motor, however, necessi-
tated landing yesterday afternoon al
Nuremburg to effect repairs.
HOF, August 2S-The Zeppelin airshir
passed here at 1923 o'clock this morn
ing driving against head wind.
PLAUEN, August 2S-The Zeppelin
airsl1ip was sighted here at 11:3O O'Clock
this morning, sailing easily.
ALTENBURG, August 2S-The Zeppe-
lin airship lost one of its propellers near
Ronneburg. 1t passed here at 3:3S this
afternoon. but is proceeding at greatly
reduced speed.
This accident will delay the arrival al
Berlin.

CADETS TO STAY OUT.
No Possible Chance for Reinstate
ment Of West Point Hazers.

''It is perfectly useless for any of the
young cadets who were dismissed by
President Taft from the West Point Mill
tary Academy for hazing young Sutton to
make any efforts toward reinstatement +"
said an adjutant general at the War De
partment. "The law is mandatory on the
subject Of the dismissal OF cadets found
guilty of hazing," he added, "and neither
the President nor the Secretary of War
has power to reinstate any OF them. The
law against hazing provides for dismissal
Of cadets found guilty Of participating
encouraging or countenancing such prac-
tice. and they are not eligible to again
enter West Point or for admission to the
army through civilian examination until
two years after the class OF which they
were members has graduated"
The above remarks were called forth by
Inquiries made at the War Department
regarding efforts making by some OF the
cadets for reinstatement at West Point.
The cadets have been uniformly told that
their efforts for reinstatement at West
Point through any power less than spe-
cial act Of Congress are absolutely use-
less.

9ists Under Ideal Conditions.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEWPORT. r. l., August oS.-The
weather man kas once more good to Mrs.
Oliver III. p Belmont and the woman suf-
fragists today. The sun shone brilliantly
for their second meeting and the lawn OF
Marble House seemed to be one of the
most attractive places In the world.
Early 1t was evident that the attend
ance would be quite as large as that Of
the opening day and incoming trains
brought large numbers of persons evil
IDENTIFY interested In the cause. and the
early ferries from Jamestown and Mar
ragansett Pier were crowded with auto
mobiles. But that Marble House was
more of an attraction to these people
than the lecture seemed probable from
their appearance. for they were all So
ciety women, mostly from Baltimore and
Philadelphia.
During the early hour of the assembly
Mrs. Belmont remained on the lawn. at
tending to selling OF the books and pic
lures, the proceeds of which were to help
the cause along. Her SON. Harold VAN
derbilt, was with her early, but later he
was not in evidence. as he went on to sell
his new thirty-footer in q race.
