May Be the Cause Of
the Duck Disease
in Utah -

Washington, Sept 19.--Are fowls
subject to infantile paralysis? Poultry
faDciers in this vicinity are said TO
hold an affirmative view and the
DEATHS Of many chickens and ducks
that have occurred recently are as
crlbed TO the disease The symptoms
shown are said to be different from
any heretofore observed among ailins
poultry. but are striliinely suggestive
OF those shown by children afflicted
with paralysis. The disease among
the fowls. whatever it may be, has be-
come epidemic.
DR.. F. c. Schroeder in charge OF
the experimental station OF the bureau
OF animal Industry for the government
has made an examination OF two OF
the two fowls in an effort 10 ascer-
tain II infanule paralysis was the
cause of their death
Il am not at all certain" said Mr.,
Schroeder that the fowls were al.
flicted with infantle paralysis. but II
such Is the case some means should
be taken Mt once 10 stop the spread
OF the disease If the fowls are af-
fected, It would no doubt be quite
possible for them to communicate the
disease to human beings. and they
would be a source of great danger in
the community

CROSSING
I HE Al PS
Two Aviators Make the
Attempt but They
Are Defeated

Brig, Switzerland. Sept. l9-Though
bold undertaking, MIR, Weymann. the
American. and Geo Chavez, the Pc
ruyian, attempted the trop.across-the-
Alps aeroplanc flight today Both
failed but not until they had given
pretty exhibition of high flying that
promised better success in fair wealth
cT.
During the night stiff breeze was
blowing in the Simplon pass and the
mountain peaks were hidden In a
dense fog There seemed little pros.
pect that the competition would be-
gin today. However. after daylight,
the wind had gone down and though
the weather was still cloudy. the In
trcpid Chavez and Weymann decided
to risk a flight
They got way with encouraging
cries from an enormous crowd that
was disappointed yesterday and had
feared that bad weather was causing
another disappointment
Chavez loft the starting grounds. a
little quadrIlatorial plateau overlook
ing the Rhone Valley, first, and i'm.
mediately began to rise In sweeping
spirals until he had reached an altl-
tude above the towering mountain
wall opposite Then he disappeared
over the granite shoulder that marks
the entrance to the Saline gorge a
moment later the watchers at that
point saw the monoplane wheel and
gradually descended until 1t alighted
on little grassy slope at the foot
OF the sheer cliffs.
Weymann, who started a few mo-
mentG after Chavez, remained in the
air only eight minutes. He ascended
To an altitude OF about 100 feet,
where he encountered a battling wind
In landing at the bottom OF the Rhone
valley, he bent a wheel of his biplane.
Chavez reached an altitude OF Il
SAC feet when he was caught In a
violent wind He observed that the
summit of the SimPlon pass was 90
scured by a heavy cloud and decided
TO return rather than chance landing
farther on the rocks He announced
that he might try again later in the
day.
The other aviators who propose 10
try for the prize are Cattaneo and

plane and the others monoplanes.
The terms of the competition pro-
vide that the flight may be made
any time between today and Sept
26th The start must be near this
point at the head OF the Rhone valley
and the aviators must fly over the
Simplon pass and down across Lake
Maggiere to Milan, Italy To clear
Simplon pass 1t will be necessary for
the aviatorS to maintain an altitude
of some 1000 feet in the first hall
hour of the flight.
The total distance to be covered Is
seventy-ilyc miles, and smoking fires
and other signals will point the way
The height of 1916 feet attained
by Chavez. Is within S63 feet OF his
own worlds altitude record which
has been officially placed Mt S,409 feet
