AVIATOR REMAINED IN THE AIR AT CHICAGO AVIATION MEET
 NEARLY 8 1-2 HOURS.
SOME HIGH CLIMBING
Rene Simon and Tom Sopnith Go To- wards Heaven at Rate oi : Ia Feet
 il Second.

Chicago, Aug. 19-Ifnless the time ing devices of the contest committee are going to be inaccurate, George w. Beatty is the first man to break the worlds record in the aviation meet tt Grand Park. Beatty remained In the air today 3 hours 2S minutes and 9 -lz5 seconds, carrying a passenger who weighed more than lZ3 pounds The previous record Wsts , hours, 19 min utes and 39 4-5 seconds, established by Amerige in his Aviha acroplane at Mulhausen OH December II, 1910
 The aviator did not ascend high into the air, but circled around the course. The biplane race of Twelve miles fought out between Eugene Ely and Lincoln Beachey two of the star flyers from the Curtiss camp, fur nished the first thrills for the aviation crowd that thr0nged the aviation field at Grand Park today. Ely cut the corners close and evidently got every ounce of drive out of his engine and completed the nine laps around the course in 13:47:18 minutes, beat ing Beaehy, whose time was 14s02 @ by about 1,2o0 feet.
 The monoplane race of twelve miles was won by Tom SopWith in his Ble- t.; init tCI simon, of the Moissanl camp Earl l.. Ovington, who had il narrow es- cape from death by drowing when he made a forced landing on Friday, Was unable to enter the event be- cause Of a minor accident to his Ble- riot.
 Rene Simon in his Moissant, and Tom sopwith, in his Bleriot, tried for the first prize in q climbing contest and incidentally broke the worlds record for quick climbing. They both took their machines the required alti tude of 300 meters or I $40 feet in 5 minutes and 35 seconds. Travelling up at q speed of seven feet, six inches per second. They will divide the first and second prizes.

STATE FUNDS ARE
 DISAPPEARING BUT TREASURER CROCKETT SAYS HE HOPES TO SEE STATE KEPT
 OFF X SCRIP BASIS.
THERE IS NO MONEY
Present Prospects are For Depleted Treasury in Noyember-University
 Gets $1O,OOO.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug 19.-The recent statement of Gov. Donaghey that the state would probably be up- on a scrip basis within 90 days, was not an idle one, according to Trea- surer Crockett and while this is be- ing used as an argument against the reference of the Turner-Jacobson re- venue bill, the bill if it became a law without reference would not preyent the coming calamity. The bill would only provide greater time neXt year.
 There is now about $250,oo0 in the General Revenue fund, and it is shrinking daily. The payment of franchise tax has about stopped, and as all of the counties have 'S9ttJed d, there is no more funds to come from that direction. The University df Arkansas OH Friday drew over $10,000 from the general fund and as it is about time to reopen the Univer- sity for the fall term, another large sum will soon be called for. The general revenue fund owes the sink ing fund $91 ,000 borrowed fro1fE 1t by the last legislature to pay per diem and mileage. This must be paid back and Treasurer Crockett says he is in favor of saving it back immedi ately before the cash in the General Revenue fund grows less. The law permits the Auditor and Treasurer to return to one fund money borrowed from it, when the funds are in the Treasury. Auditor lobe might not desire the money put back in the sinking fund, for some reason or other, and should such be the case the general revenue fund might have the use of it that much longer It may be retained to tide the state through another month, and stave off the financial crisis for another 30 days.
 The present prospects are for depleted Treasury in November. Money secured by the Attorney Gene ral's office would be about all that would come in before January 1, and the warrants issued by the Auditor, would then have to be held until the liquor license money is paid in Jan uary. This money is usually suffici- ent to carry on the business of the state until tax collecting time, when the collectors can be called on for advance payments.
 While it looks rather blue for the general revenue fund, Treasurer Crockett says he is not going to cross the stream until he comes to it, and hopes to see the state kept off a scrip basis.

RAILROADS MUST
 HAVE FINANCES PRESlDENT BUSH DEPRECtTES PRESENT PUBLIC OPINION RE.
 GARDiNG ROADS.
ANSWERS A. LETTER
More Favorable Sentiment is to Be Hoped For in the Fu-
 ture.

Under present conditions it is im- possible for railroads to negotiate for new money to make extensions or construct new lines, according to President B. F. Bush of the Missouri Pacific Iron Mountain in letter to Secretary George R. Brown of the Little Rock Board of Trade in reply to request for information as to the position of the Gould lines toward extensions and developments in this State. MT. Bush's letter follows:
 Under the present conditions gov erning railroads with the increased uncomfortable expense to which they are subjected by reason of legislative enactments, labor unions, etc, and not being able to get their rates in- creased sufficiently to meet such eX- tra expense, it is out of the question for railroads to attempt to negotiate for new money to make extensions or construct new lines. It is only by the most difficult maneuvering that they can raise sufficient funds to make necessary improvements on eN- isting lines and get new equipment to enable them to take care of the current business.
 "A more enlightened and d more favorable public sentiment must pre- vail toward railroads before they will be in d position to extend present lines or construct new ones. Ihe situation is rather unfortunate for 1 States like Arkansas, Missouri and others that have marvellous resources vet undeveloped. If better public sentiment prevailed toward railroads if would mean that millions of capi- tai would be brought into the State and invested permanently, when oi course, would create an industry TOT all time that would rebound to the hennfit of the citizens of the State, and the most the investors could eX- meet 10 take out of the State for this large investment would be , per cent per annum, which it could well afford to pay in view of the benefits that would accrue to the people from the investment.
 "We will have to hope for a more favorable opinion to prevail toward railroads before there can be any large extensions made to the present
 railroads or new construction o1 lines No money from earnings can
 he devoted to these purposes, as al nresent the earnings of railroads are
 scarcely sufficient to pay interest oo the debt, and only in few ease
 do they realize anything TOT olNi'

AFTER TEARING THROUGH AIR FROM ERIE TO BUFFALO, t60
 MILES OF JOURNEY REMAINS
FOUGHT BAD WINDS
Expects to Reach New York Monday / Night-May Not Stop at
 Rochester.

Buffalo, N. Y. Aug. 19.-Confused by the smoke of the great steel plant, Harry N Atwood the aviator, who is flying from St. Louis to Boston, made a wide detour over Buffalo be- fore he could find the race track upon which he was scheduled to alight. By 3 o'clock this afternoon nearlXXHO,0o0 persons had gathered at eA Face track to see Atwood alight. At o'clock they were still there Then the crowd believed that Atwood had met with a mishap and would not arrive and it began to dwindle. At 1892 o'clock when Atwood swooped down into the great oval and landed f'S lightly as a bird, comparatively 'feW were on the ground.
 The flight from Erie to Buffalo, a distance of S4 miles, was made in one hour and forty minutes. Altogether he flew go miles in 3 hours and 21 miWftes, actual flying time today. Up until tonight Atwood has flown 805 miles since leaving St. Louis, in 17 hours and 43 minutes. The distance AGO miles.
 Atwood arrived in F"in from Evansville, Pa, where. he at the night, at 11:10 A. M. It was his in tention to proceed Eastward 2t once, but owing to the high wind was com pelled to wait and it was 4 :55 this af- ternoon before he started for Dunkirk after circling over the temporary , aviation field at Erie. The actual fly ing time from Seneca in the city limits of Buffalo and four miles from the center of the city, was one hour and forty minutes. As Atwood covered S4 miles in this flight it is apparent that his speed today equaled, if it did not exceed, that of the first day of his trip from Pontotoc, Illinois, to Chicago. When Atwood left Erie he expected owing to high winds, to fly only to Dunkirk, but on progressing Eastward, he passed out of the more dangerOur current. As he was going well and at a moderate height when he reached Dunkirk he concluded 70 try for his original destination, Bui. falo He passed Dunkirll depot al ,: 43 and was cheered by great crowds which had assembled in hoHc of en- night Ten minutes later he flashed over the little town Of Silver Creek N. Y. and at 5.57 the aviator waved his hand to great crowds at Irving x. Y, only 2S minutes from Buffalo It was then admitted that the daring airman would carry out his original plan and make Buffalo for the night barring accident. Angola was reach ed at 6:07 and LakeyieW got a glimpse of him going at rapid pace at 6;13 he having covered the eight miles be- tween the two places ill six minutes
 The last ten miles of the journey from Lakeview into Seneca the in trepid flyer covered i'll twelve minutes and made a fine descent in an open field at G:25. In little While he was again coming on to the city. Atwood is not certain tonight as to Whethe he would stop at Rochester in nis flight tomorrow He may go on tt Utica, he said. He expects to arrivf in New York Monday night ol Tuesday morning.

Way Day" and that the terms sug- gested were agreeable to him. These terms are understood to be excep- tionally reasonably, representing concessions on Captain McManus nart because of local interest in Pine Biur on account of his relatives and friends here.
 When the final arrangements are announced it is understood that the advertising of the flights will eon- tain an appeal from the Board of Trade to the people of Pine Bluff to show their interest in their city b, swelling the gate receipts at the aviation grounds -or otherwise sup porting the project in order to en- courage Captain McManus to con- tinue the manufacture of his machine in Pine Bluff.
 The machine nearing completion here is the second McManus aero- plane, the first one having made many successful flights at points ill Texas. Captain McManus has made some of these flights himself and others have been made by aviators employed by him to demonstrate his machine. Leonard Newsom, who is now associated with the Captain, was for two years foreman of the Baron Reiehe aeroplane works OH Long Is- land, New York, where he demon- strated and made the first flights in all of the machines manufactured and sold there
 There can be no doubt that he can successfully fly as we'll as build aero- plane and with the patented improve ments of Captain McNIanus added to the standard ideas of aerocraft, a machine will certainly be produced right in Pine Bluff that gives pro- mise of adding more important deEel- opment to the pew science than is appreciated loeAly because of the secrecy under which the work has been prosecuted
 It is rumored that no bonus ar rangement will be necessary tc se- cure the McManus aeroplane factory and the only thing necessary is a proper response and interest locally in such a modern venture as flying machines. An aeroplane flight IS something many citizens of Pine Bluff and Southeast Arkansas have never seen. If arrangements are consummated for flights on "White Way Day" large crowds will surely come here to witness them and there should be enough interest within Pine Bluff to easily assure the sue cess of the attraction, Apprecla- tion of what the White Way Day will mean grows greater as fast as the posts are put in place and Wlth the realization that a chance to have Pine Bluff prominent in the ultra sporting world as an aeropiane cen ter coming at the same time, White Way Day" is going to put new llIe in the old town that will push Pine Ruff right up in the front rank among important cities of the South
