WRIGHT MAKES REMARKABLE
SPEED IN HIS AEROPLANE

WASHINGTON, July 21.-In two
short flights in the Wright aeroplane
this evening at Fort Myer, Orville
Wright closely approached the worlds
aeroplane speed record, attaining an
average velocity of $40 miles an hour
as computed by Wilbur Wright, who
held the stop watch on the machine
for half a dozen rounds of the course.
On the first flight the craft remained
aloft only one minute and 80 seconds,
the aviator being forced to descend by
losing a cog wheel on the magnet after
making his second round of the course.
On his second flight, after the cog had
been replaced, the aeroplane success
fully circled a dozen times around the
course which is hve-sixths of a mile
in circumference.
Secretary and Mrs. Dickinson, Sec
rotary Knox. the French ambassador
and Nine. Jusserand. Major General
Young, Surgeon General Torney of the
army; Senator Newlands, Brigadier
General Witherspoon and General w. j..
Kieffer were among those who wit
messed the flights.
+ At It swept past the starting point
on the second round it was seen that
the aeroplane was making extraordin-
airy speed. On the rounds from the
sixth to the ninth inclusive, each
round was made in less than a minute.
