Tired of Beng

Dismissed Loan Clerk Implicated in
Stock Swindle Says He Acted
Under Orders.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20-Sterling Birming-
ham, the dismissed loan clerk of the Wind
sor Trust company, said today through his
counsel that he was tired Of being made
the goat" An investigation was what he
would most welcome; Il would give him
the chance to show that throughout his
connection with the loan of $4,000 to NJ M
Joyce, a broker for +. Augustus Heinze,
he had acted under orders from his su-
periors.
The grand jury is anxious to determine
this point, as II was on the affidavit of
President Young that Birmingham was to-.
day arraigned in police court, charged with
misdemeanor in accepting $3.50 as a fee
for his services in pushing the loan
through. His bail was set at $500, which
he found no difficulty in furnishing, for
further examination next Tuesday.
Three other men who are now under in
dictment appeared before Judge Mulqueen
today-Charles Katz, president of the East
ern Brewing company; A. ID. S. Adams of
Boston, and Walter T. Clark, a note
broker In Clark's case the records of the
court Of general sessions, which show that
he has been previously indicted for for
gerry and has done time at Elmra, were
today produced before the grand jury,
which may now proceed against him as a
second offender.
Adams bail was set at $12,OOO-more than
he could find-and the Boston broker is
therefore spending the night in the Tombs,
Katz had to furnish $4,000 and Clark's bail
of $4,000 was continued. At request of
counsel, pleading in all three cases was
postponed until next Tuesday
The present attitude of the district at
tOrney's office is that nothing criminal has
been proved against the trust company or
it's officers. Admitting that the trust com
pany knew the principals to the loan We're
to remain strangers, the district attorney
holds that there is no evidence thus far to
show that the officers connived at the dis

Arrest Lover OF
Girl Murdered
in Chinatown
Former Sweetheart Said to Have
Sworn Bow Kum's Death When
She Wed Rival.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2O,-When Bow Kun,
the Chinese woman murdered in Pell street
here on Sunday last married Chin Ling in
San Francisco and fled with him to Chi
cago, she signed her death warrant, ac-
cordng to Chin Llng's story, which the
police say has been borne out by their in
vestigations, leading them to arrest today
two Chinese one of whom had been named
by Chin Ling as having threatened his life
and that of his bride.
The Chinese arrested today were Chu
Wah, laundryman and Lou Tong, both
living in Pell street.
In making them prisoners the police
based their action on Chin Lings story
that Lou Tong was the girls admirer in
San Francisco, but that he had practically
abandoned her there and then Chin Ling
had found her and married her; that Lou
Tong afterwards demanded the girl from
him and that TO escape him the two fled
to Chicago, and when Lou Tong followed
them there, continued their flight to New
York, where the persistent Lou Tong soor
appeared and, according to Chin Ling
threatened that If Chin Ling did not give
up his bride both Ling and the girl would
be murdered.

Lea Who was arrested in Brooklyn later
in the day end was held under 81, 500 bai

RHEIMS, Aug. 2O.-Aeroplanes, flying in
straight lines, making wide turns or wheel
ing abruptly, travelling slow and fast and
low and high, was the striking spectacle
offered 1900 persons on the Field of Beth
eny today. Two slight accidents occurred
NJ Dumanest, driving an Antoinette ma
chine, came to the ground sidewise and
broke one of the runners of his aeroplane
and M. Goffroy, in Esnault- Pelterie
monplane, had accomplished a flight of a
kilometer when the machine struck a
hedge, demolshing its propeller. 1t will re-
quire two days to repair this latter injury
This was the second last practice day be-
fore the commencement Of the prize flights
of aviation week, and many of the aviators
took advantage of the beautiful weather to
try out their craft Glenn H. Curtiss, the
only American who is to compete, was
given an ovation after a flight of seven
minutes, Although the motor of his ma
chine was a bit erratic, the bi-plane sped
straight without swaying. Mr. Curtiss de-
clared that he was ready for the races.
Hubert Latham also was applauded for a
spectacular flight of ten minutes, and the
crowd broke into cheers as M Bleriot,
driving a small four-horse monoplane,
he demonstrated his masterful hand at av-
iation.
Summer Makes Long Trip.
NJ Summer, who recently though un-
officially beat Wilbur Wright's record for
duration of flight speeded across the plain
during the afternoon and was lost to sight
in the haze. 1t was thought by spectators
that he had descended but after lapse
of time he suddenly reappeared. When
he landed he announced that he had made
a voyage TO the village Of Winnie and re-
turn.
During the evening there was some wind
but Count Lambert and NJ. Lefebvre, both
plotting Wright bi-planes, braved the breeze
and simultaneously made evolutions which
demonstrated the ease and facility with
which machines of the Wright model may
be sailed. Lefebvre in handling his craft
wheeled abruptly over the heads Of the
spectators.
George b. Cockburn, the British aviator
and Henry Farman and NJ. Fournier all
brought out their machines during the
afternoon, but only practiced starts.
The aviators are chuckling tonight over
an offer received by Augustus Post sec
retary of the Aero Club OF America, from
a Frenchman weighing 25o pounds, who
says he will give 500 to each and every
aeroplanist who will take him with them
in their flights.
