According to the reports Friday the
disease is of a most virulent type and
accompanied by high death rate.
Thirty deaths are reported at Trani.
The town is being rapidly depopulated

Beverly, Mass.-The fight of the Re-
publican party reorganization against
Speaker Cannon was opened by Con-
gressman Nicholas Longworth Of Ohio,
son-in-law of ex-President Roosevelt.
In a statement which he issued
Thursday Mr.. Longworth declares that
having voted for him in caucus on

for the last time and that when the
proper time comes, namely the meet

assembling of the next congress he
will oppose Uncle Joe to that position.
Mr.. Longworth makes it clear that

MAKES FLIGHT TO LONDON
Daring American Aviator Travels
From Paris and Captures the
$4,000 Prize.

London-The youthful American av-
iator, Moissant, accompanied by his
mechanician, Albert, Wednesday made
remarkable fight in biplane from
Paris to London across the English
channel. 1t was the first time this
feat was ever accomplished, although
often tried.
Moissant accomplished his remark
able flight from Paris to Calais and
across the channel in company with
his mechaniciaa, Albert.
By making his remarkable fight he
captures the cup that London paper
offered and the proceeds of the sub
scription raised in England for Ora
ham White, which the unsuccessful
competitor in the London Manchester
flight offered as an award in the
Paris-London competition.
Hubert Latham, who started from
Issy, suburb of Paris, to race Mois-
SAINT to London, met with a series of
accidents, the last at Amiens, cul-

but 1as out Of the race.
The last stage of Moissant's fight,
the trip across the channel, was ac-
complished in strong channel breeze,
the wind being so high that expert
enced aviators looked upon the start
az foolhardy. 1t was such a wind
as repeatedly deferred Bleriot, La
than and other aviators from at
tempting the passage of the straits.
Paris, France.-M. Le Blanc. the
aviator, arrived at Issy, in the suburbs
of Paris, at GAS a. M Wednesday

PRESENT STATUE TO FRANCE
BRONZE IMAGE OF GEORGE
WASHINGTON DEDICATED.
VireInIa's Gift to French Republic Is
Placed in Napoleon Hall at
Versailles.

Versailles, France. With ap-
propriate ceremonies the bronze re-
plica of Houdon's celebrated statue
of George Washington was dedicated
in Napoleon hall of the Chateau Of
Versailles in the presence of the
French minister of war, General Brun;
the French ambassador to the
United States, NJ Jusserand, and his
wife, and the American ambassador,
Robert Bacon, and Mrs. Bacon; the
marquis de Lafayette, the members OF
the French mission which presented
to America the statue of Rochambeau,
now at Washington, and former United
States Senator Nathan B. Scott OF
West Virginia.
General Biron, who presided, spoke
of the statue as the greatest work OF
the greatest French sculptor of the
eighteenth century. Col James Mann,
chairman Of the Virginia commission,
delivered the speech of presentation.
w. King of Virginia also made ad-
dresses on behalf of the state of Vir-
ginia.
Ambassador Jusserand, in the alb
sence of the French minister for for
eign affairs, M. Pichon, accepted the
statue on behalf of the French govern
ment. He declared that the friendship
of General Washington and of the
American people constituted one Of
the glories Of France. 1t was, there
fore, singularly appropriate that this
statue, "the third erected on French
soil by our ancient allies, should be
placed in the palace consecrated to
all our glories."
