BR00KINS Climbs
Mile IN THE AIR
ALL RECORDS FOR ALTITUDE
BROKEN IN WRIGHT b.
PLANE YESTERDAY
One Hour and Two Minutes Spent in
the Air-Fifty-Seven Minutes Going
Up but Made Return Trip in About
Five Minutes-OfficiaI Count on the
Distance Not Given Out Yet.

Atlantic City, N. j., July 9.-Walter
Brookins, driving Wright biplane,
reached an altitude calculated at 5000
feet over the ocean this evening and
broke all worlds records for aero
plane altitude. The exact official
figures, now being worked out by the
engineers who took the observations
for triangulation, will be given out
later.
The Barograph altitude recording
instrument carried on the machine
showed an altitude of 6,10O feet. Off
cials using an altitude Alage on the
ground gave the height as $3.50 feet,
and it is believed that final official fig
ures will show an altitude somewhere
between the two.
Brookins Gets $1,000
BY his feat today Brookins wins the
$4,000 prize offered by the Atlantic
Aero club for breaking the worlds
record, unless higher altitude is
reached here before the end of the
present meet.
Brookins spent exactly one hour
the air, according to the official tim
ing of Chairman Henry M. Nealy and
Recorder Augustus Post of the con-
test committee of the national council
of the Aero Club of America. About
81 minutes of this time was made in
the circling ascent, the rush of over
a mile OF the ground consuming less
than seven minutes.

The Senate confirmed the nomina
tion of Edward Douglas White OF
Louisiana to be Cher Justice of the
United States. Accompanying Justice
Whites name in the list of nomine-
tions were those of Judge Willis Van
Devanter of Wyoming, now a judge OF
the Eighth Judicial Circuit, and Joseph
Lamar of Georgia. formerly of the Sa-
preme Court of his state, to be asso
ciate Justices of the Supreme Court of
the United States.
President Taft is still worrying about
his Supreme Court appointments. The
refusal of Senator La Toilette to go to
the White House to consult with the
President about the matter has not
added to the latter's peace of mind.
1t is known that the President fears
a Senate combination which will re-
ject any appointments he may make
and force the question of filing the
Supreme Court vacancies into the
next Congress and before a Senate
which will probably be controlled by
the Democrats, and the insurgent Re-
publicans. In order to avoid this calam-
ity, the President has submitted to n
number of senators a list of the nine
men he is considering for the Supreme
Court. The list has been permitted to
reach the press. 1t is believed tha.
the President is anxious not only to
placate the senators but is desirous OF
sounding public sentiment.
