NEW CROSS COUNTRY RECORD

Amateur Aviator Covers Twelve Miles
In Nineteen Minutes.
! Mineola, L. l.. Aug. 14.-What IS
said to be record for a cross country
distance flight for an aeroplane In
this country was made by G. Foster
Willard, the amateur aviator, in the
Golden flyer, when he covered twelve
miles in 1919 minutes. Much longer
circular flights have been made by
the Wrights, however, and longer
cross country flights have been made
abroad.

M00RS KEEP UP STEADY>FIRE
Spanish Garrison at Penon de la Co.
nera May Soon Be Isolated,

mera May Soon Be Isolated.
Penon de la Gomera, Morocco, Aug.
14.-The Moors who surround the
Spanish garrison here kept up an in
cessant attack all day Thursday. In
the evening, however, they withdrew
to the hills and built great fires, by
tho light Of which they continued
their fusillade on the town and gar
rison.
One by one the telegraph wires con-
Meeting Alhucemas and Ceuta with
Penon de la Gomera have been cut by
the Moorish bullets and it is probable
that the garrison here will soon be
completely isolated. There Is a
chance, however, that the telegraph
employees will succeed in repairing the
lines.
The Moors have suffered many men
killed or wounded.

Market Reports
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
The Leading Stocks.

New York, March 5.-The movement of
the market was still under the restraint
of it's professional limitations today. The
days transactions We're attributed almost
wholly to the trading class and the opera
tions were not pushed beyond rather mar
row limits. Prices vibrated uncertainty
ard continuously. The constant response
of the financial markets to the variations
in the tenor of news from the Balkans
gave warning of the power of disturb
ance lying in that subject Today it's in
fiCence was favorable and helped in the
opening advance here by prompting buy
ing for London account. 1t was believed
also that some supporting orders were
in the market to check the rate of the
decline which was in force when the mar
kot closed yesterday. The reopening of
Wire communications with the passing of
the worst of the storm failed to bring in
any appreciate increase of orders for
execution in the market. The impression
was thus given of a promise of dull and
neglected market. Such a market is in
clined proverbially to work lower of its
own weight. 1t was the supposition of
such sagging market that prompted
some renewal of the professional selling,
which weakened prices again. The bear
attack was said to be directed against
some accounts for which the prices fixed
for stop-loss orders had become known.
Some slight speculative liquidation was
induced by the dip in prices, after which
another upward swing set in.
The whole market showed considerable
sympathy with Reading. The beginning
of conferences between the representa-
tives of miners and of the anthracite OPP
orators apparently awakened some new
apprehension over the labor outlook for
the anthracite companies The labor
question is looming into prominence also
in the steel trade. The sustaining point
in the market was found in the copper
industrials. The strength in this group
helped to pull up prices after the force
of these depressing factors had been
somewhat spent. There was professional
