UNCLE SAM MUST PUT STOP TO WAR
 IN NICARAGUA
Gen. Estrada Has Shot His Bolt and Cannot Overthrow Forces
 of MadriZ
Especial from United Press. |,

Bluefelds, Nicaragua, May B. Final intervention by the United States to put a stop to the civil war in Nicaragua was admitted today by one of the leading political advisers of Provisional Governor Estrada to be the sole object inEstrada's pro- longatiOn of the war. "Estrada req lizes that he can never crush out the army or overthrow Madriz,'' said a politician who would not permit the use of his name for fear that he would be accused of disloyalty to Estrada. 'But he believes that he is strong enough to keep up the harassment of the government until the entire country, will demand that the United States step in, pending the selection of new president, unidentified ac- lively with either the Zelaya, Madriz, or Estrada factions.
 Even should Estrada be successful in the fighting now raging about Bluef1elds, his position will be little improved for he will. still be unable to accomplish anything in the west ern part of the country where the government forces are in complete control. Estrada shot his bolt in his last movement against Managua, when his army was almost crushed at Tisma and the other engagements before the capital.
 "He has enough men, however, to prolong the struggle indefinitely and it is safe to gay that the insurgents will never stop fighting until Madriz voluntarily relinquishes the presiden- cy or the United States forces arbi- trat1on in the dispute. The latter is what Estrada is aiming at.''

AERO CLUB CONTRACT WITH WRIGHT BROTHERS
 STIRS UP AVIATORS
Especial from United Press. ]

New York, May 23.@SeriouS trou- ble between American and foreign aviators that may deal a blow to the aviation meet to be held on .Long Island in October is following the action of the Aero Club of America in announcing that no aviation meet shall be held in America unless li- censed under the Wright AreopIane Patent. The delegates affiliated with the clubs are arriving in New York to take part in meeting for discus sion of this point.
 The Aero Club has already enter ed into a contract with the Wright brothers recognizing the validity of the Wright patents as affecting all makes of aercplanes and agreeing that certain payments shall be made to the Wright company for every aviation meet held in America. Avia- tors themselves are incensed over this action, declaring that to enter a con test under such an agreement is practically to admit that their ma chimes infringe the Wright patents. This many of them who own foreign machines deny.
 The belligerents object to the pres ence of Agent Freedman, for the Wright brothers.

SMITH COLLEGE GIRLS
 ESCHEW HAT DISPLAY

Northampton,M May 23.-In order that graduation may be made as inexpen- Smith College has agreed not to wear any hats on Baccalaureate Sunday. June Il. This has hitherto been the great day of the year for millinery display for the college girls, and has been a trial for the less well-to-do seniors. The no-hat decision is the result of two months agonized delib- eration by the committee of three appointed to frame dressing rules. One of the committee tells how they made the decision, saying:
 we came to the conclusion that we could not institute any sweeping dress reform. But we have done one thing We have decided that no hats shall be worn on Bacca1aureate Sunday-the last occasion on which President See!- wee is to address us. Last year 1t was dreadful, The hats made a sea of millinery that drowned not only the faces of the girls, but effectually swamped President Seelyee himself So no hats this time"

COUNT WILL FLY BOTH WAYS OVER
 ENGLISH CHANNEL
(Special from United Press. ,

Calais, May 23.-'I failed Saturday but the next time I will succeed" !" This was Count Jacques De Lesseps' comment today when asked about his failure to fly back from the English coast after having made a splendid flight from Calais to a point near Dover. Within a short time, possi- ply this week." De Lesseps continued, "I will make the attempt again and if the weather is favorable I am sure that the round trip can be accom- plished easily
 De Lesseps would have attempted to fly back early Sunday morning but stiff wind that whipped over the Channel made this impossible. He thus lost the opportunity of winning the Ruinart prize of $2,500. The money prize, however, is the least thing that De Lesseps seeks 'I sim ply want to be the first man to fly both ways across the channel within "A hours. I expect to make such a flight within three hours for I will need only brief rest I may even make the trip in continuous flight
 De LesSeps, who was brought to Calais from Dover in the French tor pedo boat Escopette, will return to Paris this afternoon.

CORONER WILSON
 RECOMMENDS 4
 TRIPPING FENDER
Finding is in Connection With
 Death of Danbury Child
NO CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE
But Tenders Should be Arranged
 to Drop in Case of Emergency

In the matter of the death of Alvie Demond, six years child, of DaI- bury, who on May IA was killed by being run over by trolley car of the Danbury & Bethel Street Railway Company, Coroner Clifford B. Wilson finds that the car was proceeding st a moderate rate of speed and that the mctorman used due care.
 Relative to the fender on the car he finds as follows:
 That the fender on the aforesaid car was so fastened as to prevent its being lowered beyond it's normal position which wes about three or four inches from the ground.
 That the use of this fender was not criminal negligence on the part of said Railway Company, yet while lenders are not absolutely infallfbIe, it would seem that they would ordi- narily be more effective if so adjusted as to permit their being tripped, or lowered to the ground in case of sud- den emergency, and I would so re- commend"

 There yet remain to be excavated from Culebra Cut 31, ,12S,845 cubic yards, and the work is advancing at the rate of 1,240,000 cubic yards a month. that being the average month ly excavation since May l, 1909. The work of dredging is. practically con- fined to the Atlantic and Pacific en- frances of the Canal.
 The construction of the Dam across the Chagres River at Gatun was con- tinued during the year in three sec tions-the dry and hydraulic fill of the eastern half of the Dam; the lining of the spillway with concrete; and the dry fill of the western section. Two parallel ridges of rock and earth stretch across the valley, from hill to hill, and between these ridges the hy- draulic fill is being made. In the east at 53 feet above sea level. which is within 62 feet of the final height. In the western section the hydraulic fill has just been begun. Of the total of approximately 10,000,000 cubic yards of this fill to be made. 3.O00.000 cubic yards have so far been placed in the eastern section.
 All the old channels of the river are closed by the Dam and the water is flowing through the spillway. Low water in Gatun Lake is at 10 feet above sea level. which is ten feet higher than the original surface of the river at Gatun.
 The first concrete was laid in Ga tun Locks with the permanent hand ling and mixing plant on August "A, 1909. During the first four months of it's operation the plant underwent a number of changes suggested by the working conditions, and by January 1, 1910, it had reached an efficiency not anticipated before July 1 of this year. An indication of the way in which the plant gradually found itself is given by the amount of concrete laid each month since the work was begun, the working day being from 8 to ? hours:

 Washington. May 2S-The sixth year of the stupendous work of building canal across the Isthmus of Panama to connect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans ended on May 3. and in that time so much has been accomplished that the costly waterway may be open ed to the commerce of the world in 1914. The official estimate places 1t a year later in order that there may be no miscalculation.
 The progress of the work may be seen in the important features of the canal. Those are the cut through Culebra, the locks at Gatun. Mira flores and Pedro Miguel, the building of the Gatun dam and the creation of Gatun Lake.
 The excavation. record by years since Nav 1904 is as follows:
