American Aviator Fails.

Chavez was pinned under the motor.
He had tainted on striking the ground
and was bleeding profusely when re.
leased from the wreckage. The ma
chine was ruined.
Chavez's injuries proved to be more
serious than was at first thought.
Physicians found that both his legs
were broken and that the left thigh
was fractured. His condition is grave.
The American aviator. Waymann,
also attempted the flight, leaving the
table land at Brig at 1:l0 p. m. Later
word was received here that he had
descended after being in the air four
minutes. He started on another at
tempt at 3.43 o'clock.
Chavez crossed the Simplon at 1:4S
and thus accomplished what has been
regarded as one of the most daring
feats attempted by air n~avigators. He
had waited patiently for favorable
weather for the route where strong
winds are the rule.
Most Reckless Flight.
The weather for the competition was
excellent. The haze that had gath
cred on the mountain tops, was early
blown away and the wind died out.
Chavez believed the favorable OPP
p~ortunity he had awaited since Mon
day morning had come and he decided
to make the start. He got away at
1929 o'clock. He reached here at 2:11
o'clock.
There is general regret that fata
which permitted him to make what
has been described as the most reck,
less flight attempted, should have
dealt less kindly with him when he
had reached the one Of easy flying
and the prize was in sight.
With the exception of Chavez and
Weymann, the ayiators abandoned the
competition.
Follows Road Napoleon Built.
This morning both sides of the Alpl
reported clear weather, but the top of
Simplon Pass was obscured in a haze.
Chavez rose to a height estimated at
nearly 1000 feet. 1t was known that
it would be necessary for him to clear
the pass where the summit rises $500
feet.
He apparently maintained this alti,
tude for at least a half hour and fol,
lowed the road built by Napoleon in
1900 over the Simplon Pass. He GOV,
cred the eight miles that took him
over the top of Simplon and then
sailed gracefully over the Is miles
down to D~omodossola.
Easy Finish Lay Before Him.
Arriving at Domodossola he had left
the hardest part of his journey behind
him, having escaped the high peaks
and the tumble of rocky gorges on
this side of the summit.
The remaining distance TO Milan Of
fers less difficulty but leads over Lake
The distance from Brig, Switzerland,
to Milan is rs miles and the prize was
for the aviator who should accomplish
the first flight, starting from a table
of land 900 feet above sea level at the
head of the Rhone valley.
III duuaNio- " reaching q nclsHl that
would take him over the Simplon sum-
init and in doing which he must suffer
severely from the cold, the aviator
was required to guide his frail craft
over wide chasms. notably the Gorge
OF Ysette, where a safe resent would
be quite impossible and an accident
must mean almost certain death.
Success or Death Faced Him.
Aviation experts had predicted free,
ly that the only alternative to a sue,
eessful flight across the Alps was
death of the aviator.

Philadelphia, Sept. 27.-John H.
Deyine, head of a large commercial
printing house in this city, has sent
the following letter to the president Of
the Pennsylvania railroad company:
Philadelphia, Pa, Sept. %, 1910.
Mr.. James McCrea, President Penn.
~sylvania Railway Company, PhiladeL
phia, Pa.
Dear Sir: AS a stakeholder of the
Pennsylvania railroad / have been
greatly surprised to learn there is an
account, long overdue, for Transports
ton furnished by it to Theodore Roose.
welt. 1t is a matter of quite general
knowledge, so l learn, that this ac-
count amounts to more than 500, 600.
Whether the person owing such &C
count be a president or a former presi.
dent, or whoever he may be, the in
terests of the Pennsylvania railroad,
it seems to me, demand that there be
a settlement.
Very truly yours,
JOHN H. DEVINE.
Theodore Roosevelt's extraordinary
travelling at the expense of the stock.
holders of the railroads during the
first four years of his presidency re.
suited in congress appropriating $25,.
900 a year to meet the cost of neces-
sary presidential travel in the future.
The Pennsylvania furnished Roose-
welt with over 100000 in free trans.
portation and in inner railroad circles
it has been common knowledge for sew.
eral years that this remains unpaid.
Publicly the Pennsylvania officials
will not admit that Roosevelt owes the
corporation anything. They say the
transportation was furnished without
any expectation of payment; that there
is no account against Roosevelt and
that the items were charged up to
advertising"
1t was the custom to carry the presi-
dent of the United States as a free
and honored guest. The railroad could
not very well discriminate between a
bear hunt and a trip Of the president
to dedicate a monument, SO no request
for transportation was refused. Roose.
welt rode up and down the lines at his
pleasure.
How the cost of transportation of
foreign lines was apportioned has
never been made public. In railroad
circles it is said that the Southern
railway, over which Roosevelt trav-
eled south from Washington on many
occasions, has a charge of 100000.
The New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad and the Northern
and Union Picifics also were gener.

To Debate Income Tax.

Princeton, N. j., March 21.-Un-
usual interest is manifested in the
second annual triangular between
chosen representatives Of Harvard,
Princeton and Yale, which is to be
held this evening. The interest in
the debate is greater than usually
aroused by intercollegiate debates,
owing to the important subject which
has been chosen for this occasion.
The subject selected is: Resolved,
That the federal government should
have power to impose an income tax,
not apportioned among the states
according to population.
The debates will be held stimuli
taneously in Cambridge, New Haven
and Princeton, each college uphold
ing the negative side at home and
the affirmative side away from
home. Each college will be repre-
scented by two teams, one remaining
at home, the other meeting its op-
posing team at one of the other uni
versities.

FIGHT TO SUCCEED
LOWERING

Boston, Mass, March 21.-An
election is to be held in the Four
teenth Massachusetts, congressional
district tomorrow to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Representa-
tive William c. Lowering. The cam
paign which closed today has been
one of the liveliest that Massachu-
sets has had for several years.
With the country surveying it as a
barometer of public opinion on the
issue of the Taft administration and
in view of the political uncertainty
attending the cost of living agitation,
the result of the election is regarded
as of national interest and import
ance.
Three candidates are In the field
William r. Buchanan, republican;
Eugene N. Foss, democrat, and John
Mccarthy, socialist. The district is
normally republican by $4,000 to
$4,000 in presidential years, but the
plurality usually given was greatly
cut down in the last election. This
fact has given the democrats ground
for hope that they may be success
full in tomorrow's contest. The re-
publican managers profess to have
not the slightest fear of losing the
district to a democrat, but at the
same time they have deemed it wise,
as matter of precaution, to put
Senator Lodge and other prominent
party leaders and orators on the
stump in the interest of the repub-
lican candidate.
William r. Buchanan, the repub-
lican standard bearer, is a Brockton
editor. In his letter of acceptance
he proclaimed himself an opponent
of Cannonism, a believer in the in
come tax and foe to all trusts that
are doing business illegally. In con-
clusion, he said: II believe in pro-
lection to American labor where
that protection may be NEEDED to fos-
ter new industries or maintain old
ones. But do not believe in pro-
tective tariff that enables the manu-
facturer to charge extortionate prices
for his product at home and at the
same time sell that product in a for
eign market at reduced cost"
Eugene N. Foss, the democratic
candidate, is one of the most pictur-
esque figures in New England poll
tics. Until about a year ago he was
a republican and had been twice an
unsuccessful candidate for congress
on the republican ticket Then he
switched to the democrats and in the
| last election he was the candidate
of that party for lieutenant govern
or. He is rated in the millionaire
class and has been liberal contrib
| utor to the state and national cam
paign funds.
In the announcement of his can
| didacy for the Lowering seat. Mr..
Foss declared himself in favor OF
| free raw materials, lower cost OF
| necessities, better trade relations
| with "our neighbors," the income
tax and conservation.

NAY NOT INHERIT
MILLIONS

New York, March 21.-If John D.
Rockefeller carries out his intention
to give away the bulk of his enor-
nous fortune by establishing a gil
gantic foundation for philanthropic
purposes, his grandson, John d.
Rockefeller Ill, who completes his
fourth year today, will lose the dis
tinction of being the richest baby in
the world, or, expressing it more
correctly, of being the baby with the
prospects of inheriting the largest
fortune in the world. 1t is true
that, even if the Rockefeller founda-
ton becomes fact, the favorite
grandson and namesake of the Oil
King will inherit enough to keep the
wolf from his door for the rest of
his life, but his inheritance will not
be as great as that of several other
grandsons, whose grandfathers have
accumulated and are still accumu-
lating gigantic fortunes in oil, steel
or railroads.
However, the possibilities of the
future do not worry John D. Rookie
teller III. at present. He was re-
markedly large and healthy baby
when he was born on March FL,
1906, and under the strict hygienic
regime enforced by his father has
grown into fine and healthy young
ster, vigorous and full of life. I'm
conscious of being the prospective
heir of untold millions and equally
unconscious of the probability of
having his share of the inheritance
materially diminished, he celebrate
his birthday today with all the zest
which a boy of his age, be he mill
lionaire or pauper, can put into such
a celebration.
John D. Rockefeller has many
other grandchildren, but John D. III.
has always been his favorite, and 1t
has always been understood that the
bulk of his fortune would some day
descend upon the eldest son of the
Oil Kings only son. 1t has always
been a subject of interest to some
persons with a mathematical turn of
mind to figure out how large would
be the fortune which John D. III.
would some day inherit. Nobody,
perhaps not even Mr.. Rockefeller
himself, knows the amount of his
present wealth more than approx
mately. 1t has been variously esti-
mated at from $200,000,000 to ST.
100000, and some men, well ac-
quainted with the affairs Of the Oil
| King, have expressed the opinion
| that even the larger amount is con-
sentative estimate.
Accepting $1,000, 100000 as the
| basis of their calculations, mathema-
/ ticians have figured out that this
amount, at simple interest of per
cent would have grown to $780,
| 100000 in SO years. But, of course
| the establishment of the Rockefeller
/ foundation would alter the situation
The wealth would probably increase
| at a moderate rate, in spite of the
benefactions distributed by the foun-
dation, as only tho interest of the
| endowment would be used; but the
bulk of that tremendous fortune
would not be in the hands of John
D. Rockefeller Ill, although, un-
| doubtedly, he would succeed his IA
thor in tho CONTROL of tho fI1nd
