THE Flying MAOHINE

After making three unsuccessful effoTcS
to get his new seroplane into the air
yesterday OrvilIe Wright made a short
fight enciicling the Fort Myer aero
drome. Lack Of powder, due to loose
spark control, Was finally determined
upon by the two Wrights as the cause
for refusal of the machine to fly for more
than few hundred feet beyond the end
of the starting rail. The machine Is a
new one and requires careful handling.
Another fight is expected this evening.
Early today the Wright brothers re-
paired the damage to one wing of their
aeroplane which resulted from oDeo OF last
night unsuccessful fights. They jiggered
up the mCtor, which did not behave pro-
perly in the first trials. At IL O'Clock they
we're ready for another attempt, and
were waiting only for favorable wind
conditions. They are confident that
yesterdays mishsps we're not the result
of structural defects, and that the craft
10 now in proper trim for successful navi-
CATION OF the air. At l1:30 the Wrights
announced that owing to high wind they
would not attempt fight before 1870
this afternoon.

1T IS an old saying that when certain
oeu can find no other victims upon
whom to vent their spite they attack
their Inckless wives. Several months
aVo man killed his wife in q certain
CITY. and upon being called upon t.
answer for his crime he said the woman
was too good to live. Several wifebeateTs
ware arrested during the past few days
Upon being made to face the police
court they all with one accord said they
we're driven to their ungallant acts by the
hot wave. A singular case Is reported
ia Washington where a woman had he'
husband arrested for assault, the nature
of which she explained. Her husband
abe said was so fond of her, that ne was
almost incessautly hugging her ano
caressing her. According to the wife,
statement, he often squeezed her loo
tightly. aud during the prevalence o
the recent hot wave his embraces were
TOO much for her; hence her complain
and petition that the court issued an To-
junction against her better half by which
he may be restrained from being too Low

Sixty-first Congress.
Washington, June 80.
SENATE.

hkNAlhf
A telegraphic protest from the Build
ing Association League of New, Jersey
10 session at Atlantic City, against the
imposition of the corporation tax on
building aud loan associations, was pre-
sented in the Senate ~ SetstOr VIM.
Kesn, today. The telegram said that
if the corporation tax amendment did
not exempt these associations it would
do great injury to thrifty members of
the community who are trying to buy
homes from their savings.
A new way of handling the tariff
bill was suggested by Mr.. Gore, today
He presented resolution instructipg
the finance committee to report each
schedule of the tariff bill as complete
bill 30 that 8 senator in voting and the
president of vetOing if he so de-
sired, could have the benefit OF
separate action. As matters stand
senator will have to vote against the
whole bill or In favor of 1t and the
president, if he should desire to exercise
the veto power, would be obliged to
veto the entire bill. He could not d.
| rect that any particular sections should
be stricken out. The resolution was
laid on the table and will be called up
by Mr.. Gore later in the session.
Mr.. Gore said that before action be
taken on the resolution he desired to
learn whether the Senate had authority
to split a revenue bill thst originated
in the House. He left convinced that
the Senate bill was worse thsu the ex-
listing tariff law and that the president,
to keep faith with the people, should
| veto 1t.
la resumiug his speech begun yester'
day against the corporation tax and IN
favor of the income tax Senator Oum'
Minis referred to the fact that Senator
Aldrich, chairman of the finance CON-
mittee, according to the newspapers,
had gone away for short sea voyage
Undoubtedly the chairman hs'
earned a rest" said Mr.. Cummins. vi
l was compelled to make the confession
which he made yesterday with regard tt
a bill which / had introduced l should
want to 20 away and not come back fol
thousand years." This was, of course
"a reference to Mr.. Aldricb's Statement
that he did not favor the corporation ta1
amendment except "a means OF de-
festing the income tax and also IS tenn
porary measure to supply the de6cienciei
in the government revenues for this yesi
and next.
Mr. Oummins, claiming that the gov
ernments income for the year ending
June -, 1911, would be $l75, 900, OOO
less than the expenditures, objected to
Mr.. Aldrich's statement that 800, 900,
600 should be deducted from the esti
mated expenditures because Of the sink
ing and the oationsl bank funds. There
was no vestiee of authority for the de
duclion, he claimed, because the smoun
vas not only provided for BY the perma'
neDt annual appropriations, but vas IN
cluded in The appropriations oil the ia''
sessions.

The siaeI Murder.

New York, June 90.-Thst six China
men besides Leon Ling we're implicated
in the murder of Elsie Sigel is the latest
theory of the police who are shadowiDg
two of the new suspects and may place
them under srres. shortly.
The police believe that four Cinnamon
had an SEXUAL hand in the killing OF the
girl. The fith-Ohuug Sin--admits
that be looked through door and saw
the murder, while two others were GER
tainly accessories in that they had q
guilty knowledge of the gruesome con-
tents OF Leon Ling's frank.
Until the discoveries which led the
police to adopt this theory, the suthori-
ties were sure that Elsie Sigel was killed
by Jealous Ohinamsn Leon Ling be-
cause she preferred his rival Ohu Cain
Now, however, that they believe that
seven men were implicated in the crime,
they are seeking for n deeper motive than
jealousy. 1t is suggested that the girl,
through her association with Leon Ling
and Ohu Gain and other Cinnamon,
while ostensibly performing missionary
work in Chinatown, may have given the
girl too much knowledge of the inner
workings of the acts of the Chinese Sc
cret society OF which the Cinnamon were
members.
The police refuse to reveal the source
Of their information that the missionary
| was the victim of a gang, but they de-
clare they have made important discoy'
cries and may make arrests shortly. Nc
clue has been found, however, as to the
present whereabouts of the missing
Leon Ling, believed to have been the
