The WaAhfngtOn-BaItim Aviation
Committee Meets Behind Closed
Doors and Adopts Resolution CALI
ing President of Aero Club to
Name the Site in Ten Days.

Conservative members of the Washing
ton-Baltimore aviation meet committee
won Internationally yesterday in a SEES
sion behind locked doors, when a resolu-
ton was adopted withdrawing College
Park from the running unless the site OF
the big flying event is chosen within ten
days.
In spite Of the views of the more mill
tant members OF the committee. Cort-
Iandt Field Bishop was not mentioned f.
the resolution. and an attempt TO call
upon him for an explanation was de-
feated.
The joint committee met at II O'clock
yesterday morning at the rooms Of the
Washington Aero Club. Charles J. Bell
presided over the Washington delegation,
and Col Jerome H. Joyce acted as leader
Of the Baltimoreans
Resolution Is Adopted.
The press was excluded. but In the two
hour session that followed the president
of the Aero Club Of America came In for
considerable criticism. it is said
The resolution wired to the Aero Clut
follows;
Resolved That the Wsshingto Baltimore aviation
committee withdraw as candidate for the inter
national aviation meet Of 1910 unless the time and
place DO decided upoa by the Aero Club Of America
within ten days from this date and assurances be
given by them q the participation Of a sufficient
number Of foreign aEiatnrs 10 make the meet a
success.
More than one OF the committee was
willing to admit after the meeting that
such a resolution practically kills the
waning chances Of the Washington Bal
timore offering. That Mr. Bishops
majority in the Aero Club Of America
have already made up their minds to
vote for the Long Island fields was a
foregone conclusion.

HARRY POE TO DIE
 ON THE SCAFFOLD

Hot Springs, March IA yer dict of guilty as charged in the indictment, which carries with it the death penalty, was returned this afternoon in a special term of Circuit Court against Harry Poe, negro, tried for criminal assault on the person of Lena Adams, a 10-year-old second grade pupil of Oaklawn school in this city, five weeks ago. The trial had been in progress two days under protection of the state militia and after the yer dict was returned this afternoon the prisoner was removed to the city jail, where the state guard will protect him until he can be removed to Little Rock for safe keeping until time for the exc cution.
 Tomorrow morning sentence will be passed on the negro by Judge Evans in Circuit Court and will call for his execution 30 days from that date, the nearest time after the verdict is returned per- mitted under the statute. Under the state law executions for the crime he was convicted of must be public and thousands of visi- tors who have watched the pro- gress of the case will probably remain here to witness the exc cution.
 Pope broke down when re- moved to the jail tonight. He realizes now that nothing but the intervention of the governor can save his life, and that there is little hope that the chief execu- tive of the state will interfere with the verdict of this after noon.
