A drizzling rain was falling when
CuTtisS gave the order for the starting
of his motor. All morning weather
conditions had been unpropitious and
thousands of excursionists who had
gathered at the point had almost Civ
Ell up hope of seeing tile fight. At
noon. however, the aviator made an
eight minute fight, reaching an alti--
tude of 500 feet.
Navigator Needed All His CIeverness.
In his main fight he encountered
considerable difficulty in navigating
the treacherous currents above Lake
Erie. The first ten miles were covered
in 13 minutes. but after that the
breeze grew gusty, necessitating many
dips and manoeuvers that the aviator
might maintain his balance.
Off Cleveland harbor the velocity OF
the breeze had diminished to IL miles
an hour, but it was unsteady, and the
1000 people lining the lake front
and perched on top of every available
building had an opportunity of judging
the difficulty of air navigation under
unfaVorable conditions.
Banquet in the Evening.
Tonight the aviator, his wife and the
members of his partyt were entertain
ed at banquet given by the Cleveland
Aero club. They will leave for the east
in the morning.

NEW YORK HOTEL MEN
OPPOSE NEW AUTO LAW.
Organize With Connecticut and Mas
sachusetts for Uniform Regulations.

New York, Sept. Hotel men of
New York state and city MaSsachu-
setts, Connecticut and elsewhere met
here today to organize the Interstate
Hotel Mems Protective association,
which will try to secure uniform auto
mobile laws throughout the country
and the repeal of the law that went in
to effect in this state today.
The new law in this state does not
recognize licenses issued by other
states which discriminate against
New York by allowing New York own
ers only a limited time to take out Ii
censes when traversing their territory
1T is certain said F. IL. Elliot, chief
of the bureaI of licenses in New York
state, that New Jersey cars will be
sent back by the same ferry on which
they come over. unless they first send
here and get the proper license. Al
though the escretary OF state has de-
cided not to enforce the new law until
Sept. 9, because it is so much misun-
derstood, it is actually in force now
and arrests may be made"
This spirit of recrimination is what
the hotel men deplore. They say it
has a serious effect not only on their
own interstate business, but on busi-
ness in general.

Chicago, Sept. Testimony rela-

seek an increased rate on certain
commodities and the shippers who op-

examiners a formal protest against
what he termed statements which
have been sent out from Washington
as proceeding from the interstate com
merce commission since the contest
over the tariffs began, which have been
uniformly misleading, narrow and un-
fair to the carriers.
The protest offered free access of the
commission or the shippers to all of
the books of the Santa Fe company to
show that the statistics We're fair and
accurate. Attorney Lyon of the COM
mission objected to the statement as
rejecting on the commission, but it
was admitted in the record of the

BUSINESS MEN REPLY
TO PRESIDENT MELLEN.
They Defend Their Position Regarding
the Public Utilities Bill.

New Haven, Sept 1.-The State Bus
mess NJ ems association has replied to
President Mellen's letter to the Con-
necticut Editorial association by ad-
dressing itself to the latter body. and
taking up what it terms the underly-
ing principles of the utilities bill. 1t is
set forth that the business men of the
state believe in enforceabeness of le-
gal obligations and the efficiency of
administration. OF the former 1t says
that the fact that there is seldom any
necessity for enforcing a given legal
obligation is no argument against pro-
viding means for it's enforcement. On
the other point. the associations let
ter says that most questions which
arise between the public and the pub
lie service corporations come from ad-
ministration, and these can be more
justly and efficiently decided by a
small permanent commission than by
large bi-cameral legislative body.
The letter then sets forth what 1t
terms abuses and enuqnerates these:
Unused charter rights; traffic in spe-
cial charters; unsafe conditions; in
correct meters, and refusal to supply
service: and upon each a short de-
scriptive explanation is given.
