SEES FUTURE FOR
WARSHIPS OF AIR
Major General Bell Thinks Ten
Years Are Needed.
ADVANCE OF AUTO SIMILAR

Development In Weight Carrying Pow
err of Heavier Than Air Machines
Needed For Effectiveness-Suitab
Ordnance For Dropping to Be De-
veloped.
Major General ]. Franklin Bell, who
has Just been relieved as chief of staff
Of the United States army after COM
pleting four year detail. believes that
the development of heavier than air
machines will probably come as rapid
ly as did that of the motorcar and
that within ten years at the most the
aeroplane will be brought to remark
ably high state of efficiency, particu-
larry as military machine.
General Bell rather doubted the util-
ity of the aeroplane for explosives
dropping purposes.
Value Yet Indefinite.
'TtIis not possible in the present
state of development of air navigation
to determine definitely what value air
craft may have in warfare" he said
For transporting any considerable
weight it would seem probabie that
dirigible balloons might be more reli
able than heavier than air machines.
Yet dirigibles are subject to serious
drawback in making Roadway against
a wind blowing at considerable rate
The whole science of aviation Is still
in such a state of development that
only experiment and experience can
work it out.
However, those who will bear in
mind the numerous difficulties which
have been overcome by modern motor
during the past decade will be inclined
to believe that heavier than air ma
chimes will in the next few years be
sufficiently developed to make them
reliable in navigating the air except in
winds that may be properly classified
as storms.
ITO just what extent heavier than
air machines can be utilized in carry
ing weights it is, of course, impossible
to foresee. but | personally have no
doubt that aeroplanes will be perfect
ed in the course Of ten years at the
most, If not in five, to such an extent
that they may be relied upon to carry
from three to five persons and posi-
bly, small amount of explosiSesfn ad
dition.

ERS HELD TO BE FAULTY.
The Judge Brought the Rejoicing Of
Defendants to Sudden Close by
Ordering New Grand Jury.

Chicago, Illinois.-Judge Lands In
the United States district court sus-
tanned the demurrers of the socalled
beef trust" to the indictment charg-
ing combination in restraint OF
trade. new grand jury was ordered
to renew the investigation of the
packing companies.
The indictment, drawn on evidence
secured by agents Of the federal gov
eminent, ran against the National
Packing Company and it's ten sub
sidiary companies, charging a viola
ton of the Sherman Antitrust law.
Smiles, hand claps and congratula-
tions were exchanged with much glee
when Judge Lands announced that
the indictment would not stand, but
the demonstration came to sudden,
almost GREATNESS, end when the court
added
Call special grand jury venire

This body will be ordered to hear
testimony with view to finding valid
indictments against the packing com
panies.
The indictment quashed failed to
show, in the view of Judge Lands,
that any offense had been committed
within the last three years.

A BILLION DOLLAR SESSION
1t is Probable That Congress Has APP
propriated $1,o54,ooo,ooo During
Session Just Closed.

Washington, D. C.-More than ST.
OOO,OOO,OO0 was appropriated at the
present session of congress, if con-
tinuing appropriations are incorporated
in the totals of the general appropria-
ton measure.
Insofar as the figures could be OBJ
tanned, from measures which under
went changes in the last hour of the
session the total of the appropriation
exclusive of continuing appropriations
was $S94,0S6, 94S.
The amount of continuing appropria-
tons for the last fiscal year about
S160,000,000. 1t is safe to say that it
will not be less for the next fiscal
year, and the grand total therefore
will aggregate at least $1,054, 100000.
The appropriation measures for the
fiscal years 19O9-10, exclusive of con-
tinuing appropriations, carried $685.
91S,215, while those of the fiscal year
of 10000 carried $S54,203,248.

GORE CHANGES TO Be PROUEO
BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS AP-
POINTED COMMITTEES.
Demand for Investigation Was Made
by Mcclure in the House-Long
a Party at Interest.

Washington, D. C.-Both houses
Of congress at almost the same mo-
ment adopted resolutions providing
for investigations growing out of the
charges made by Senator Gore on the
floor of the senate.
There are to be separate commit
tees of five members each, appointed
by the presiding officers, but it was
noted that, while there is an appro-
priation made for the expenses of the
house committee, no such provision is
made for the senate committee.
The investigation was forced by
Bird S. Mcclure, member of the house
from Oklahoma, who had handed to
chairman Tawney of the house appro-
priations committee the amendment to
the general deficiency appropriation
bill which led to Senator Cores sensa-
tional charges.
The speaker appoined as members
of the committee Burke, Campbell,
Miller of Minnesota, Stevens of Texas
and Saunders of Virginia.
While the debate was on in the
house Hughes of Colorado, offered a
resolution in the senate for an investi-
cation. Carter presented a statement
from ex-senator John NJ. Thurston
asking for investigation of his con-
nection with the matter. He made it
appear that he only represented ex-
Senator Long of Kansas. The Hughes
resolution, which is incomplete and
seems to have been hastily drawn, was
adopted without comment
The senate committee is made up of
Jones of Washington, Burton of Ohio,
Crawford of South Dakota, Hughes of
Colorado and Perry of Mississippi.

FIND TARIFF NOT GUILTY
That is the Majority Finding of the
Senate Committee on High Cost
of Living.

Washington, d. C.-That the tariff
is not guilty, that it has had little
or nothing to do with the increased
cost of living in the last few years, is
the conclusion of the senate commits
sion that was appointed early in the
session.
The majority has submitted its re-
port. The Democrats will have some
thing to say about the tariff, but their
report is not ready to file. They had
charged in the first instance that the
principal function of this committee
was to prove that the tariff was in no
wise responsible.
The report very extended one, will
be printed as a public document and
will be given very wide circulation
as a campaign document.

The Blind Oklahoma Senator Says He
Was Offered $4,000 to Stop
Objections.

Washington, D. C.-Senator Thorn
as P. Gore, the blind senator from

charge in the senate that he had been
approached with bride of $4,000
which might be raised to $4,000 if he
would withdraw objection to attorneys
claims for sale of lands belonging to
the five civilized tribes of Oklahoma.
Senator Gore asserted that these
attorneys were playing for a mighty
stake, namely ten per cent of the
revenues of the sale of these wealth
bearing lands, which would aggregate
at least 100000 and might reach S.
100000.

Orange, New Jersey.-The annual

the famous Jersey mosquitoes, at least
in this section of the state, driving
them away from the residential dis
tricts and combining them to tracts
where the roads are not treated fire.
quently with the oil preparations.
The smoke and gases from passing
motor cars also have their effect, it is
said, reinforcing the fumes of the
road oil in driving back the pests.
