Prof Willis L Moore, Chief Of the
Weather Bureau, one OF the directors OF
the Aeronautical Society, Is very enthusi-
astic about the flight across the Atlantic
which is to be attempted in the dirigtble
balloon suchard by DR.. Paul F. Cans,
the German millionaire.
Former projects for travelling great
distances over the water have been fool
hardy in the extreme said Prof. Moore.
81 believe that the navigator who pro-
poses to cross the Atlantic in the middle
ATTITUDES should be restrained, just as we
try to prevent a person from jumping
from the Washington Monument. This
applies to any person with such a scheme
no matter what his standing may be.
The aeronaut who attempts to cross
the Atlantic in the middle or northern
ATTITUDES must inevitably suffer disaster.
No matter how fair the winds are in the
beginning, the airship in the middle OF
the ocean will inevitably be drawn into
a cyclonic vortex. So many complex con-
ditions make this absolutely certain that
It Is as sure as the result OF two and two.
The Cans expedition. however, Is assured
Of every reasonable success, because the
only locale on the globe has been Sc
lected where such an attempt would be
feasible. Likewise. the details OF the en-
terprise have been planned with thor

Lonesome Man Wants Live Baby
About Forty Years Old.

Boston, Dec: 24-John Farrill, aged
ffty-five, of birmingham, hung up his
stocking this evening with the expect
ancy of a youngster and sincerely hopes
that Santa Claus will remember him. Far
rill desires no ordinary gift, nothing more
than as he expresses it. "a real live baby
about forty years of age, widow pre-
ferred."
Mr.. Farrill addressed the following let
ter to Santa Claus, which was opened
at the Boston post-office to-day:
My dear old Santa Claus: AS you are
bringing much happiness to thousands of
children, why cannot you let bright
ray of sunshine into my life. 1 am an
old fellow, fifty-five years of age, a
widower with no children. OF good
character and in good health, own
good home, and work the year around.
Will you please send me a real live
baby, about forty years old. a widow
preferred, no objection to one or two
children. Please do the best you can
for me. and oblige. A lonesome man."

EIGHT ARE SAVED

Bridge Tender Tillett Comes
to Their Rescue.

Eight men, including the owner, aboard
the launch Ollie, which went aground on
sunken piles below the railroad bridge at
were rescued in the tender of Robert
Tillett. in charge of the draw Of the
Highway Bridge, just above it, about 10
o'clock last night. Gus French, owner of
the injured launch. who lives at 1921
Eleventh street southeast, was the last
to be taken to safety.
Though none of the occupants of the
launch was thrown overheard, there
was a narrow escape from panic when
the little vessel smashed violently into
The Jagged piles. Everybody was thrown
tc the bottom of the boat.
The accident occurred near the Vir-
ginia shore. The little launch was slow
" feeling it's way upstream when II
crashed into the piles. which were part
Of the old Long Bridge. These piles are
not more than three inches below the
waters surface. A hole was knocked in
the PROV of the boat beneath the water
line. French called for help and Tillett
responded.
The little rowboat, which he brought
aside the launch, could only carry two
of the men to safety and four trips were
made before the occupants had been
taken from their perilious position.
While Illicit was removing the men
from the launch the police boat OF the
harbor precinct came to the rescue and
sent over a rOWbOat. There was no i'm
mediate danger. however. and Illicit took
the last of the men over without the
aid of the police.
The launch was left on the reef OF piles.

portant Part in Predictions for New Year.

tors and great financiers believe business
depression about at an end. 1t is known
that some of these persons have many
millions of money ready to invest when
they see the first signs of returning pros
perity. Several OF these persons have ex-
pressed their belief that after the read
justment in business that the end Of the
year will force, there will come an end
of liquidation in stocks. In spite of the
revival in the volume OF business done
by the country. in general, there has
been only slight Improvement in the mat
tor of earnings. Tonnage of the steel
companies has grown as large as the
companies want It to grow at present
prices, but when hey attempt to increase
prices they find that consumers hesitate
to purchase.
New Equipment Needed.
This is especially true of the railroads.
The Pennsylvania Railroad. for instance,
wants 1900 new steel cars, and efforts
of the car-buildIng companies to induce
the company to pay a slight advance
have resulted in a deadlock, so that 1t
looks as though the cars would have to
be built at the low prices now prevailing.
With the exception of few concerns
closely identified with the big insiders,
the banking and brokerage business has
been disappointing and numerous changes
will be made in firms.
i Many business concerns are falling at
the end OF the year, and greater num-
Der than usual are brought almost to
failure. so that the number OF actual
collapses does not mark the true condi-
ton of business. 1t has not been so bad
for many years, and that very fact Is the
greatest hope of revival
Social and business reforms of magni-
tude are in progress, and have acquired
such momentum that no human power
can stay them or estimate their strength.
The only hope is that business and the
governments have appreciated by this
time the futility of attempting to stop
these movements, and will therefore ad-
lust themselves to the new conditions.
