SAFE DESCENT IS PROBLEM.
Weakness Of Aeroplane Construction
Still to Be Solved.

PARIS, September 24.-The old prob
lem Of how to come down safely is
yet to be solved by navigatofs OF the
air. This is emphasized by the acct
dent to Chavez yesterday.
The French aviators and constructors
are intensely interested to discover the
exact cause of the Peruvian's mishap,
which they consider is proof positive
Of u weakness of construction in aero
planes which must be corrected.
According to the accounts of experts
printed here today a wire stay snapped
permitting the wings to collapse, as
Chavez restarted his motor, after nav
ing planed down distance of more
than half a mile. His speed as he ap-
preached the aerodrome is estimated at
fully sixty-eight miles an hour.
The constructors agree that the glide
earthward, after the motor has been
stopped, subjects the stays of the
wings to a tremendous strain. They
believe that Chavez's machine gave
way when suddenly put to the extra
tension caused by the restarting of the
motor.
AS the deaths Of Delagrange, LIE Blon
and Waechter were due to similar col
lapses Of the wings, the impression is
strengthened that this serious defect
must be overcome in the air machines
of the future.

COMPANIES MAY BE
ASKED TO EXPLAIN
New P. A. Y. e. Cars Furnished
With Seats Running Lengthwise
Instead Of Crosswise.

Local street car companies 1t is stated,
may be called on in the near future to
explain why their new cars, especially
those of the p A. Y. f. type, recently
put in operation, are not equipped with
seats that run crosswise, instead Of
lengthwise the car. When the cars of
the 14th street line of the Capital Trac-
ton Company were replaced with the
p. A. Y. e. cars. one of the strongest
elements of protest by the public was
the fact that the new car was not as
comfortable, and did not seat as many
passengers as the type 1t superseded.
which was equipped with seats that ran
crosswise. 1t was then urged In COM
munications sent to the District electric
railway commission that the comfort Of
the public was less regarded i'm the
p. A. Y. E. car, in which. the seats ran
lengthwise than the ability of the COM
PAW to crowd the car with standing pas
sengers.
Since the additional floor space on the
interior of the new cars furnished an
additional incentive to overcrowding, It
is declared, the District electric railway
commission took the matter under con-
sheraton. Secretary Eddy Of the COM
mission, in his recent report to the
commission with reference to the new
p. A. Y. + cars, says:
1.-The new cars are, unfortunately. pro-
vided with longitudinal, rattan-covered
seats only, thus providing a very wide
aisle, and, as q consequence. plenty Of
standing room. This feature of the
equipment is contrary to the very ap-
parent tendency throughout the country
to equip cars for city as well as for
suburban service with at least a certain
proportion Of transverse seats

William H. Mcknight, salesman In the
employ OF the firm Of Browning & Mid
dleton, testified that he conversed with
Mr.. Browning the evening before he was
found unconscious He was suffering from
a severe cold, and was not feeling well.
Witness said he had noticed nothing un-
usual about him. He had seen him In the

Mr.. Browning, he said, told him he had
been taking powder to make him sleep.
He said Mr.. Browning was a devout
Christian. Witness said he went to Mr..
Browning's apartment Saturday morn
ing. His attention was directed to an
open Bible in the room, a pencil indicating
he had been reading the 31st Psalm.
Witness recalled having seen an en-
velope in the open Bible, the writing on
1t being the handwriting of Mr.. Brown
ing. Part of the writing was from the
thirty first Psalm, reading: For / said
in my haste | am cut off from Thine
eyes" Mr.. Mcknight said he felt certain
that Mr.. Brownings death was the re-
suit of an accident.
Witness said that Mr.. Brownings
finances were in splendid shape and he
knew he was looking forward to his
approaching marriage with great
deal of pleasure. Mr.. Browning in
tended to meet Mrs. Richardson in New
York next month.

rope with Mr.. Browning. also gave tes-
timony. He saw him last Thursday and
Mr.. Browning then seemed perfectly

Not Taken Seriously Here.

The Sultan of Sulu is not taken very
seriously by the government. AS the spec
tacular nominal head Of the Jolo country.
Hail Mohamed Jumabel Hiram attracts
considerable interest. but he has no ON
cial status SO far as the State Depart
ment is concerned, and that department
regards him more in the light Of q terri
torial governor, who is amenable to q
higher power, or even, perhaps, just as
head datto.
He may call on the State Department
with his retinue just as any other citizen
or visitor might do, and the government
may give him little added attention on
account of his nominal sultanate. but he
has no sovereign powers or rank what
ever, his country having passed out Of his
control under American treaties with
Spain.
The sultan, who will not meet President
Taft until next week at least, won a
particular claim to notoriety by his pro.
posal of marriage to Miss Alice Roose-
welt (now Mrs. Nicholas Longworth)
while she was a member Of Mr.. Tafts

MAI. SCOTT.GREETS
THE SULTAN Of SULU
Arrival of Oriental Potentate
in New York, Where He Will
Remain Some Time.

NEW YORK. September o4.-Haji Mo.
named Jumabel Hiram II, Sultan Of Sulu,
titular head of the Mohammedan faith in
the Philippine Islands and pensloner OF
the United States, arrived today on board
the steamer St. Louis. accompanied by
Data Rajo Moda, his personal adviser
Charles j. Werble, an interpreter, and a
retinue of four Jolo attendants. Here to
meet the sultan on his arrival and give
him formal welcome to the United States
was Maj. Hugh L. Scott, 14th United
States Cavalry. formerly Governor of the
Jolo archipelago.
The oriental potentate will remain in
New York several weeks and will later
visit the principal cities of the United
States. During his stay he will renew
the acquaintance Of the President, first
made when Mr.. Taft was Governor of the
Philippines.
Expects Much From Visit.
Maj. Scott went down the bay in a
revenue cutter to meet the sultan, and
was the first to greet him.
Hiram II, through the interpreter. ex-
pressed himself as delighted with his
experiences since leaving Manila last
June. The visit to America, he said, was
the fulfillment Of his most cherished
wish, and he felt that his most extrava-
CANT dreams concerning the United
States would fall short OF the reality.
On the question of a plurality of wives
the sultan said ne wanted it understood
that he has at the present time Just one
wife.
Il believe it is best now to have but
one wife, he said. AN abundance of
wives makes one lot poorer, and in
other ways causes too much trouble
The sultan. who has been credited with
the possession Of a valuable collection
of pearls, the product of the islands, said
that he was not going to sell any pearls
in this country. despite the report that
he would do so. He said that since he
left Jolo he had sold several lots.
