WILLARD MAKES
RECORD FLIGHT
In Aeroplane, Daring Aviator
Flies Twelve Miles in Less
Than Twenty Minutes.

MINEOLA, n. Y, Aug. 13.-What is
said to be a record for c~ross-country
distance flight for an aeroplane in this
country was made by c. Foster Willard
in the Golden Flyer today, when he
covered twelve miles in 1917 minutes.
This exceeds the ten-mile flight made
by the Wright Brothers aeroplane from
Fort Myer to Alexandria and back sew
eral weeks ago. Much longer flights
within a short circle have, however,
been made by the Wrights and cross
country flights have been made abroad.
Mr.. Willard, who mas been making
short flights almost daily in the ma.
chine belonging to the Aeronautic So
ciety, started from Mineola early today
in an attempt to make a new worlds
record cross-country flight. His route
lay around an irregular square and car
ried him from Mineola over Garden
City, Westbury and Hicksville and back
to Mineola, a distance of fourteen miles.
Leaving Mineola, Willard sent the ma
chine about $50 feet In the air, and. 60
ing off at a fast clip, his machine was
quickly a speck on the horizon. Nearly
fifteen minutes had elapsed when the
speck again appeared miles away insthe
direction of Westbury. 1t was growing
larger every minute Inc the watchers
were preparing to congratulate Mr..
Willard when the machine began to
glide slowly downward and then landed
in a field between Mineola and West
bury, about two miles from Mineola.
The machine was unchanged, but the
magnetic was deranged.

MIDDLEBORO, Mass, Aug. IL. -
Bloodless war between troops of the

next twenty-four hours, and today the
leaders of the opposing armies, Briga-

and Major-General Tasker H. Bliss,
whose 5000 soldiers of the red" army
will threaten the Hub, together with a
host of umpires, who will decide who
won the fight, are expected to be on the
field of strife.
Already Plymouth, Bristol and Barn
stable counties resound with the war
trumpets of the assembling army OF
the blue" and tomorrow it Is ex-
pected hat General Pew's forces will
be strongly intrenched in a dozen
points of the real attacks.
Conflict is expected to continue
throughout the week and sometime
next winter the umpires, with the rules
of the game in one hand and the actua
movements of the troops in the other
will decide upon whose banners the
bird of victory finally perched.

STILL At LIBERTY

ELIZABETH. Aug. 13.-The bodies
of Calogero Catalina and Giuseppe CT
acco, the men supposed tt have been
murdered by Herbert Alessi on Tues
day night, were viewed by a %coroner's
jury this morning. and an in
quest into the death of the men will
be held on Monday morning. At the
inquest an accusation may be made
against Alessi from the evidences of
his guilt Forthcoming from the police
and their witnesses.
Up to this afternoon as far as
could be learned from the police, no
arrests had been made in the case, and
they seemed as far from a solution
as they were Tuesday night.
That Alessi is the man responsible
for the death of his rival for the hand
of Mrs. Josephine Romano, the young
widow who conducts the saloon at $40
Third avenue, where Catalina was en-
ployed until the day of the murder, is
practically admitted by members of his
family.

DOVER, DEL, FIRE
LOSS IS $4,000
Business Section Practically
Wiped Out, but Residence
District Is Saved.

DOVER, Del, Aug. 13.-Four blocks
of the town of Milton, Del, a lumber
and canning centre, were entirely des-
troyed by fire early today, causing a
loss which Will exceed $3.50, 900.
AT one time more than one hundred
buildings were on fire, but the arrival
of fremen from surrounding towns
saved all but thirty-eight buildings from
complete destruction. The town is stu

The pretty residence district is located
on the north and escaped the fury of
the flames. The business section, which
is now practically in ruins, was located
on the south side of the river. In the
business section there were a number
of dwelling houses and about twenty
were burned.
The fire originated in the hardware

DIXON SUES ATOM
FOR ALIENATION
Jersey Corporation Counsel
Brings Action Supplementary
to That for Divorce.

PATERSON, Aug. 13.-Alleging that
his Wife's affections were alienated by
Thomas a. Atom, superintendent of a
LEGAL machine company's plant, Warren
Dixon, corporation counsel of Jersey
City, has instituted suit for $50, 900
against Atom. in the Bergen county
court. This civil suit is a sequel to the
divorce suit Lawyer Dixon instituted
against his wife last year and which
was to be tried last December, but for
some reaso was postponed.
In the divorce proceedings Dixon
named Atom and two others, one an
East Orange man, as correspondent.
He learned hat his wife was living
in Elizabeth and that Atom called at
her home. SO recently he engaged sew
eral detectives to watch Mrs. Dixon's
HON and to report when they found
Atom visiting there. They did so and
when they knew that he was in the
house, night, they entered. While
no evidence Of an discriminating char
acter was obtained against Atom, Dixon
brought the action for damages.
An order for ATOMS arrest was made
out about two weeks ago in Bergen
county and Justice Swayze released him
under 10000 bail. Mrs Dixon resides
in R~idgewood at the present time and
the action will be tried in Bergen
county, but it is hardly likely that the
trial will take place during the Septem-
Der term of court.

SETTLEMENT OF CHICAGO
STREET CAR FIGHT NEAR.

CHICAGO, Aug. 13.-Hopes for a
peaceful settlement Of the street con-
troversy were brighter today as the re-
suit of the offer made yesterday by
John M. Roach, of the Chicago Rail-
ways Company, to the employees of
that organization, and it was said that
before night further progress would be
made toward a final solution of the diff
ficulty. The offer of Mr.. Roach, which
gives all present trainmen an imme-
date advance of one cent an hour in
wages and graduates upward to a max
imum scale of thirty cents per hour at
the expiration of two years. is likely to
prove satisfactory.
