Is One Of the Best Pieces of Work 10
Date in Air Turned Out.

New York, Oct. 5.-Wilbur
Wright started his areoplane flight
at 9:56 a. m, yesterday, and after
circling around the Battery for a
short time he sent his machine
straight up the Hudson river, flying
about 100 feet above the surface OF
the water.
Reaching the seawal, MIR. Wright
found himself confronted by the big
passenger steamer Seaberg, but he
easily mounted above the obstacle
and kept on rising until he was 100
feet above the water.
AS the biplane appeared against
the sky. the craft in the harbor
turned loose their whistles and the
crowd on the battery cheered. The
aviator first flew west, then turned
north for trip up the Hudson riv-
er. Four minutes after the start he
passed Fulton street, three-quarters
of mile from Governors island,
still flying about 100 feet high ana
in a straight line.
On the trip Wright scared over
the fleet of battleships and on past
Grants tomb, encircling the BRUSH
cruiser Argyle. He was gone 33 min
utes and 33 seconds, making one OF
the most perilous trips ever attempt
ed The distance of his flight was
estimated at Is miles
The machine responded in 1lne
shape" said Wright as he clambered
through the network of wires of the
aeroplane at the completion OF the
trip "I heard the cheers of the sail
ors on the warships, he continued
as an enthusiastic group of Officers
and newspaper men grasped his
hands to congratulate him. This
! flight fulfills every condition of my
! contract" added the aviator.
