REGULAR AIRSHIP PASSENGER
SERVICE is INAUGURATED BY
COUNT ZEPPELIN WITH HIS
GREAT CRAFT.
BY Associated Press.

Dusseldorf, Germany, June 22.-The
first regular airship passenger service
was inaugurated today when Count
Zeppelin's great craft, the Reutchs-
land, carrying twenty passengers, sue
cessfully made the first scheduled
trip from Friedrichshafen to this city,
distance of three hundred miles, in
nine hours.
The weather was perfect and the
motors worked faultlessly. The aver
age time maintained for the complete
course was approximately SO miles an
hour, but between Friedrichshafen and
Stuttgart the 124 miles was covered at
an average rate Of speed of Al miles
an hour The best speed for single
hour was 43 IL miles.
Count Zeppelin was at the helm
when the Deutchsland arose at Fried
richshafen at o'clock this morning
and sailed away on the trip that was
to MARI an epoch in aviation. The
passengers were some of the directors
Of the Hamburg-American Steamship
Company and the German Stock Com
pany, joint owners of the dirigihle, and
guests. They occupied the mahogany
walled and carpeted cabin situated be-
tween the gondolas and from the win
dows of which they viewed the scenery
as the aerial car swept along. Count
Zeppelin steered for the greater part
of the distance.

HUGHES TO MEET
COL. ROOSEVELT
LATTER EXTENDS INVITATION TO
THE GOVERNOR FOR A CON.
FERENCE - CLIFFORD PiNCHOT
TO BE GUEST OF ROOSEVELT
TONIGHT.
By Associated Press.

New York, June 22.-Col. Roosevelt
today invited Gov. Hughes to meet
him for conference at Sycamore Hill
in the near future, extending the in
vitation after denying a printed re-
port that he would oppose Hughes S
fight for direct primaries, for which an
extraordinary session of the legisla-
ture Is being held.
Whether Hughes has accepted is not
known, but there is much speculation
as to whether Roosevelt will aid the
governor in the primary fight and an
effort to enact stronger laws for the
investigation of legislative graft.
Hughes passes out of politics In the
fall, when he goes to the supreme
court, and he is now making a fight
for the adoption of his policies.
Clifford Pinchot, deposed chief fores-
ter, will be Roosevelt's guest tomor-
row night. The object of the confer
ence was not made public.

Dayton, Ohio, June 22.-Judson
Harmon was renominated by accla-
nation for governor of Ohio, and en-
dorsed for the presidency of the
United States by the Democratic
itate convention here today.
Atlee Pomerene was named for
lieutenant governor on the second
ballot, Notwithstanding that he had
withdrawn.
Almost Immediately the convention
voted $40 to 254 to reject the propos-
Rl to endorse a candidate for United
States senator, as proposed some
weeks ago by William J. Bryan.
So heated became the contro-
versy over the senatorial matter that
Newton D. Baker, of Cleveland, lead
er of the fight in favor Of endorsing
a candidate for Senator, was hooted
of the stage. Baker flung defiance
to the convention. but his words were
fnaudible.
The platform adopted was practical
ly as forecasted, except That an addi-
tional plank was added at the
eleventh hour denouncing Secretary
Of the Interior Ballinger for dismiss
Ing from the public service tried and
true officers, whose only aim was the
preservation to the people of their
resources"

United States Commissioner Marsh
yesterday announced his decision in
the case of Sheriff John H. Collins and
Deputy Sheriff Frank Penton, Of
Santa Rosa county, who were given a
preliminary trial here last week on
the charge Of conspiracy to deprive
Felix Corbin Of the rights guaranteed
to him under the constitution OF the
United States. The commissioner
holds that the federal law has been
violated and both men are committed
under bond to appear before the grand
jury at the next term Of court. Pen
tons bond was reduced from $500 to
$500, but that of the sheriff remains the
appearance at the time named.
When the case was called the de-
tense had secured additional attorneys,
for besides Judge Virgins, Scott M.
Loftin, and G. H. Laney appeared as
counsel for the Santa Rosa county
men.
In rendering his decision the court
stated that so far as he could ascer
tain case of this nature had never
before been passed upon, either by an
inferior or supreme court, and there
fore, the final disposition of it will
make the case a pioneer in a field Of
law heretofore untouched, except Incl
dentally.
He reviewed at length the testimony
that had been brought out, and stated
that it was very clear that the two
persons had conspired to remove Cor
bin, Notwithstanding the order of the
circuit court commissioner holding
the extradition papers as being faulty
and ordering the man released.
AFTER ANOTHER SHERIFF.
Now that the opinion Of the comrsis-
sioner has been rendered holding the
two Santa Rosa men for trial, the FED
eral authorities will proceed to secure
the arrest of Sheriff Field of Georgia,
who is wanted on the same charge,
