ANOTHER RECORD
SMASHED BY WRIGHT

WASHINGTON, July 2S.-Fresh from
his triumph Nof yesterday, when he broke
the worlds aeroplane record for endur-
ance, held by his brother, Wilbur, with
one passenger besides himself .Orville
Wright today is to seek to comply with
another requirement of the government
This will be a cross-country fight to Alex
andria from Fort Myer and return.
No other cause than possible unfavor-
able weather conditions is expected to
interfere with the plan for the flight,
which probably will be undertaken late
in the afternoon as has been the custom
of the aviator because of the wind usually
being stilled at about sunset.
The worlds aeroplane record for two
men, as to both time and distance, was
broken Tuesday evening in a beautiful
flight Of one hour, twelve minutes and
forty seconds-upwards Of 80 miles, and
at speed averaging about 40 miles an
hour, by Orville Wright at Fort Myer,
with Lieut.. Frank p. Lahm, Of the army
signal corps, as a passenger.
The former record was made last year
by his brother, Wilbur, joint inventor
with him of the machine in which both
achievements were performed, at Le-
Mans, France, with Professor Painleve,
of the French institute, as passenger. That
fight was one hour, nine minutes and
thirty-one seconds. Wilbur was an eager
spectator of the flight by his brother.
The cheering which heralded the set
ting of new mark In the conquest of the
air was led by President Taft in person,
who had sat an intensely interested spec
tator through the flight and who insisted
at its conclusion upon personality con-
graduating the brothers upon their sue
cess.
This success was all important to the
Wrights, in that it completed the first
of two crucial tests of their machine
imposed upon them by the United States
government-the so-called endurance
test" which required them to remain
one hour continuously in the air with
one passenger.
Orville did nearly IS minutes better than
that, and could have kept on indefinitely
three hours and a half the limit imposed
by the gasoline capacity of the supply
tank.
Yesterdays having been the endurance
test today's will be for speed. The
course measures 10 miles and it lies above
hill and dale. For much of the distance
it is thickly wooded. offering no landing
place for the aeroplane in the event of an
emergency. More daring, therefore, than
any flight he has yet made, will be
this attempt of the intrepid Wright.
Lieut. Frank p Lahm, Of the signal
corps, u. S. A, was the passenger who
yesterday sat by Mr.. Wright as the ma
chine sped through the air. Today the
dangerous honor falls to the lot of Lieut..
BENJAMIN Foulois, of the same service.
To fulfill the contract requirements under
which the government is to pay the
Wrights a handsome sum for their aero
plane the flight today must average 40
miles an hour.
The national capital is eagerly interested
in the performances of the Wrights. Even
greater crowds than have yet witnessed
the flights will doubtless view that to be
made cross-country. Advantageous points
all along the route are expected to be
thronged with spectators.

JOHN WANAMAKER'S SON
WEEDS SECRETLY IN LONDON

LONDON, July H.-Rodman Wanamak-
er, son of John Wanamaker Of Philadel-
phia and Violet, daughter of the late Eu-
gene Guide Cruger, of New York, were
married this afternoon at st. Margaret's
church. Westminster, by special license.
Extraordinary efforts were made to keep
the affair secret.
Those who had been admitted to the
condolences of the bridal couple were
pledged to secrecy. Mr. Wanamaker tried
to throw off inquirers at his hotel yes
terday by leaving word that he had gone
to Scotland. The church was closed to
everyone, save a few invited guests.
Accompanied by Barclay Warburton, his
brother-in-law, Mr.. Wanamaker drove up
to the vestry entrance in a motor car
shortly before half-past II o'clock. Five
minutes later the bride, accompanied by
her mother, Mrs. ]. Frederick TaHs, ar
rived in an electric brougham, but the
machine was directed to the main en-
trance to the palace yard, and immedi-
ately she and her mother entered the
doors, which were locked behind them.
Shortly afterwards Whitelaw Reid, the
American ambassador, arrived and gave
a password, which admitted him to the
church.
