MOST DARING FEAT IN
HISTORY OF AVIATION.

Deal. Eng, Aug. t7.-~1t has been
reserved for an American citizen to
perform one OF the most daring feats
in the history Of aviation,
John g. AIOissant, of Chicago, flew
across the English channel from Ca
lais to Tillmaustone today with
passenger and by this achievement
far surpassed the feats of Bleriot, DE
Lesseps and the English aviator, Rolls,
who afterward met his death In
Hournemouth.
The two mum flight from France to
England was the most astonishing IN
that II was only Il month ago that
Moissant learned to fly ana was SO
little known among air men thnt not
even his nationality was disclosed. lie
was reputod 20 be a Spaniard and II
WIS only when he landed In England
today that II WAS revealed that he Is
young Chicago architect.
TO make the feat still more surpris-
ing Moissant was totally ignorant OF
the geography OF his cruise, He had
never been in England and was ublig-
ed to rely entirely on the compass
while crossing the channel in the teeth
Of a strong ensterly wind
The channel flight was an incident
in the aerial voyage from Paris TO
London. Moissant left lssy yester-
day with Hubert Latham and reached
Ainiens IN two hours. l4atham's aero
plane was wrecked and this morning
Moissnnt. leaving Amiens ot an early
hour. headed for Calais. Ills mcchap.
ioan, Albert t'ileux, who had ac-
companicd him across the country.
took his place In the machine when
the motor had been set Ia motion for
the dash across the channel.
Thousands who had gathered TO
watch the daring aviator were amaz-
ed and urged him not 10 mike the at
tempt in the face of the half gale that
was blowing.
Moissant cared nothing for the
warnings OF the people, and even the
fact that there was no torpedo boat
to follow in his wake. but only slow
moving tug did not deter him. He
made the trip In 81 minutes. When
he descended his ewes were greatly
lnflamed as o result Of the heavy
raiustorm he drove into as he APP
preached tho English coast. An av-
erage height OF between 400 and 400
feet was maintained over the water,
The cold was intense ana both Mois-
SAINT and his mechanician were be-
numbed When he revived sufficiently
he laughed and said
This is my first visit To England.
This IL only my sixth flight in an
aeroplanc I did not know the wav
from Paris to Calais when ! started
and I do not know the way 10 Lon
don I shall have to rely on the com
pass

rounds. had never been In an aero.
plane before and did not know where
| was taking him when we left Paris.

DECLARES FEDERAL COURTS
WITHOUT JURISDICTION

Portland. Ore. Aug. fT---AccOrd-
ing to Judge Robert ;. Bean Of the
federal court here, the act passed by
congress June 25 appears to have de-
priVed the United states courts of
jurisdiction in all Indian matters with
the possible exception of criminal pro-
ceedings.
Judge Beans announcement to that
effect yesterday was received with
great interest ana Il was pointed out
that the law is of special moment to
the Oklahomans who recently have
been declared to have an undue in
terest in Indian lands. The fact that
under the new law the secretary Of
the interior apparently has been given
authority heretofore vested in the fed
cral courts has also excited comment.
Letters setting forth the contention
made by Judge Bean will be sent to
the congressional committee now TAX
ing testimony in Oklahoma.
The issue was raised by Judge Bean
today when United States District At
tOrney McCourt asked for decrees in
number of cases involving titles to
lands in all allotments and distribu-
ton among heirs. Judge Bean declin-
ed TO assume iurisdiction claiming
the act referred to as his guide lie
stated that he had Just discovered
tho act among the pamphlet laws
sent out by the department of JUS.
tice. - VI al
The act OF June 25 confers on the
secretary of the interior the right to
determine what Indian lands shall be
awarded, to search out and determine
what heirs shall be recognized. and to
whom patent shall issue, also the right
10 approve or disapproVe the sale Of
any allotment
The act is of more far reaching ef-
rect in other western states than in
oregon. for in oklahoma. Colorado,
arizona. New Mexico and Montana.
large tracts of land are being held IN
trust by the government, the tribes
not being able 10 secure titles.

ment was contained in bulletin

Reports from the hospital that the
bulletins from the mayors bedside
were masking the whole truth were
widely current this afternoon and
evening with considerable basis FOR
credence beneath them
Robert Adamson, the mayors sec
retarN is said to have stated today
that the mayors condition today was
as serious as at any time since he
was shot Other reports had it that
the glands in the mayors neck had
begun to swell, indicating the devel-
opment of the dreaded blood poison
ing and from this it is reasoned that
if The swelling increased, pressure on
one of the blood vessels sbarded by
the passage Of the bullet might in
duce hemorrhage with fatal results.
Mr. Adamson had answered All
these statements which found their
way into print with flat denial.
None of the doctors in attendance
would even discuss them.
