Fog and Binding Rain 13 Miles from
the Finish.

Clermont, Ferrand France, Sept 7.
-Weymann. the American aviator,
who today attempted to win the spe-
cial Michein prize of $4,000 offered
for the first aeronaut who with pas
senger flies in six hours from the
French capital to the top of Puy de
Dome, was beaten by the elements
when the erophy was almost within his
craps.
The airman followed the railroad
track out of Paris and everything was
running smoothly until Mont Lucon
was reached. Passing that town Wey-
mann ran into a fog and binding rain
and although he reached Ancazes,
within thirteen miles of his goal, at
$50. he completely lost his bearings,
and wandered for an hour and three
quarters in the gloom, finally reaching
Volvic at Ills o'clock where he was
obliged to descend on account of dark
ness.
While he failed to win the Michelin
prize the American aviator made one
of the most notable overland flights
of the year. He smashed the worlds
record nor a nonstop passenger run
by flying 1862 miles and also beat
the record for distance Travelled with
