Mr.. Cushman entered the hospital on

the removal of an abcess in his neck.
The operation, which was slight
one, was successful, but before he re-

The disease reached the critical stage
yesterday, and, contrary to the expec-

remained for five years, being a cow

During this period he took up the study

little outside aid.
At the close of this time he moved

by the Republicans for congress. Since
that time he has been without opposi-

AIRsHIP FLIES PERFECTLY.
Orville Wright Handles His Machine
at Will.

Washington, July 2.-Calm and con-
fident, Orville Wright late last night
encircled the Fort Myer drill grounds
time after time in his aeropIane in
three separate flights. He was seen
by thousands.
Shortly before 8 o'clock the aero
plane was wheeled from its shed to the
starting track. Previously the field
had been cleared by troop of cavalry.
After the motor had been tested, the
propellers were cranked and Orville
turned on the motor and released the
machine. AS it neared the end of the
starting rail-, Orville turned up the
forward horizontal rudder and the
machine arose into the air. 1t was
beautiful start.
Down the field the aeroplane sailed,
curved gracefully about the lower end
and back up the east side of the field
along the edge of Arlington cemetery.
The first round was made in so sec
onds. Five times the machine circled
the field, attaining height that varied
from 10 to 80 feet. On the sixth
round Mr.. Wright came to earth with
in 100 feet of the starting point, COM
pletings the flight in exactly five min
utes.
The landing was perfect, the ma
chine swooping down in successive
glides until within few feet of the
earth, when Orville pulled the string
that stops his motor and the aeroplane
glided smoothly over the grass on its
skids until it came to a stop. Again
the aeroplane was placed in position on
the starting rail, the motor started.
and again the machine encircled the
held with ease and grace. Mr.. Wright
approached dangerously near the start
ng tower and flew within few feet
If the stables that line the field. 1t
vas noticed that at times the motor
'kipped, but this seemed to have no
fleet on operating the aeroplane.

villages in Calabris, and killed 200, GOO
persons.
Although the shocks today had no
such terrible consequences, the 25, 900
residents of the city were thrown into
terror. They ran into the streets panic
stricken, and last night nearly the en-
tire population encamped in the open
places, fearing to return to the struc-
lures that have served them as homes
since the city was destroyed. The
broken walls Of the old ruins were
thrown to the ground, and Messina was
for few minutes smothered in cloud
Of duet.
The casualties were few, and the
only persons killed, 30 far as known,
were young woman aid her child.
The woman had come here only a few
days ago, and had settled In rooms that
the great earthquake had left undam-
aged.
The first shock was followed quickly
by second shock, and the people fled
pellmell to the American quarter.
which they seemed TO feel was their
safest place Of refuge. So great was
the rush to the American houses that
the authorities were unable to check
the invasion.
The soldiers soon drew a Gordon
around the square and a guard was
mounted at the bridge leading to it.
Many OF the panic-stricken people were
driven off, and orders were issued that,
pending further instructions. no one
should be permitted to occupy the
American quarter.
All commerce. ceased in the city and
The places Of business along the sea-
front were closed.
Reggie suffered almost as severe
shock as Messina, but no casualties
laye been reported at that place.
The seismic disturbance was felt at
raormina, but no damage was done
here. Within "a hours the shocks at
hessina numbered 20.

Aeronauts Almost Freeze at Altitude
Of 10000 Feet.

Of 10000 Feet.
st. Louis, June 3d. Whipped help
lessly to and fro by 60-mile gale In
dense, black storm cloud, 10, 600
feet above the earth, John Berry and
M. A, Hermann today were very near
death.
Berry, the winner of the Indianap-
oils distance cup, and Heimann, who is
seeking balloon pilots license,
assembled in the balloon Melba shortly
after noon. They we're carried swiftly
to an altitude of 10000 feet into a
thunder storm. Here the frail bag was
dashed about by hurricane.
At times the balloon lay on level
with the basket as the wicker was
pitched high up by the wind. The two
men, coatless and freezing, threw out
all ballast, yet the balloon would not
ascend. Berry climbed aloft on the
frail cords and tied the appendix, but
in spite Of this the bag telescoped and
che balloon came down as a parachute.
They landed safely. Describing his
experience, Berry said:
"When we entered the storm cloud
at height of 10000 feet the atmos-
phere was 80 black we could scarcely
see the swaying bag above us. The
feeling of being carried helplessly
toward what appeared to be certain
destruction was one l hope never to ex-
perience again. After we entered the
cloud we were in cold, penetrating
mist which nearly froze u.s."

FLOOD OF PROTEST.
Business Men Don't Want Congress
to Tax Corporations.

Washington, June 30.-A flood of
kilograms, nearly equalllng that which
swamped the wires during the anti
railroad pass fight, is pouring in upon
senators in opposition to the CORPORA
tion tax bill. Most of the kilograms
come from persons interested in build
ing and loan associations, but practi-
cally every character of corporations
represented. Most of the senators re-
ceived from IL to so kilograms TODAY
and some at least 100.
In view of the vehement tone of the
protests and the fact that the kilograms
are from prominent business men.
some senators pledged to vote for the
administration program said TODAY that
they are doubtful as to the wisdom of
their course.
Unless there is a change of senti-
ment throughout the country. it would
not surprise many members of congress
II the corporation tax should be aban-
ooned IN conference and the inheritance
tax which was adopted by the house
should be restored to the tariff bill.

Accident on Torpedoboat Hull Badly
Injuries Firemen.
San Francisco, June 30.-Five men
of the torpedo boat Hull were badly
scalded last night by the bursting of a
boiler tube. B. F. King, fireman, is
80 severely injured that is feared he
cannot recover. The boat was but
slightly damaged and repairs have al
ready been made.
The other injured are: ]. M. Rob-
erts, water tender; Francis Crawford,
fireman; John R. Carter, fireman (;
Newton Carish, coal passer. The last
four are seriously injured, but expected
to survive.
The accident occurred as the little
vessel was passing down the entrance
Of the bay to Sausalito, where she was
to have remained over night prepare
tory to starting for Seattle this morn
ing.
Off Alcatraz island the steering gear
went wrong and the engines were
stopped while repairs we're attempted.
AS the vessel drifted with the tide, a
tube in one of the starboard boilers
blew out, opening long crack, from
which a cloud of Kissing, scalding
steam escaped. Five men were in the
boiler room at the time and they
scrambled toward the hatchway and
deck, fighting their way through the
dense vapor, with scalding water drip
ping on them from the deck plates
above.
King was the last man to reach the
ladder, and as he stumbled to the bot
tom rung second tube blew out, King
receiving the full force of its charge
of steam. Aided by his companions,
he reached the deck and few mo-
nents later the exhaust valves emp
lied the crippled boiler of steam.
