On the streets of the city the board
Of public works has used 1900 gal
Ions of oil, and AZ blocks have been
oiled as an experiment. However,
the board has already learned that
the streets must be swept clean be-
fore the oil is placed on the surface.
Jefferson and Broadway were swept
clean and the oil soaked readily, but
on another street the board did not
have time 10 sweep the street clean,
and the oil Is not absorbed as readily.
No more oil will be spread on the
streets this year.
Next year 1t Is planned TO oil the
streets in June and the oil is calcu-
lated to prevent dust for six months,
which would cover the dry months,

WRIGHT AVERTS A POSSIBLE
WRECK BY QUICK ACTION

College Park, Nd, Oct. 90
While the government aeroplane was
flying today at a height of twenty
feet with Lieutenant Lahm operating
the levers the motor stopped. Wright
grasped the levers and landed the
machine safely. After several hours
of investigation it was found that a
careless soldier failed to replenish
the gasoline since yesterday.
Five instruction flights were made
yesterday. In the afternoon the
aeroplane raced with a train and
seemed to be moving faster than the
train. Wright today received $20,-
900 as part payment on the machine.
Another $4,000 will be paid when

FORTS FOR CANAL
ARMY AND NAVAL BOARD To
MAKE PLANS.
Big Guns and Other Necessary Ac-
cessories TO BE Placed at En-
frances TO Waterway.

Washington, Oct. 2O.-The i'm
portant work of constructing fortifi-
cations for the entrances to the Pa
mama canal will be given careful con-
sideration by a joint army and navy
board during the coming winter. This
board, the personnel of which has
been partly completed, will visit the
isthmus and make investigations of
conditions there most complete so
that congress may be prepared to act
intelligently as soon as it is decided
that the work of fortifying shall be-
gin.
Col. Goethals, the chairman and
the chief engineer of the canal COM
mission, has promised that the canal
shall be ready to be opened by Janu-
AIRY 1, 1915. and the president and
his cabinet feel that the work of
placing that waterway in an impreg-
nable position should be finished or
at least well under way by the time
the canal is ready for practical uses.
The board will consist of Brig.
Gen. William L. Marshall, chief of
engineers; Brig. Gen. William Croz-
Ter. chief of ordnance; Brig. Gen.
Arthur Murray, chief of coast artil-
lery; Brig. Gen. w. w. Witherspoon,
assistant chief of staff; two navat
officers yet to be selected, and pos
slbly others
The general question of the forth
fications for the canal has been dis
eussed by the army and navy for
years. 1t is possible that If the re-
port Of the board Is made i'm time
congress may at this session apprO-
pirate money for the work.
The board in 1905 took the posi-
tion that while it might appear that
the ultimate defense of the canal
must rest with the navy, the fleet
should not be tied so closely to ii as
to lose its offensive power.
The board recommended the in
stallation at the entrances of eight
12-inch guns eleven 3-ineh guns and
thirty-two 12-inch mortars with the
necessary accessories.
