Flew Almost to Havana.-J. A. D..
McCurdy, a skilled aviator, came with
in ten miles of flying over the Florida
straits from Key West to Cuba yes
terday, a distance of about 100 miles.
The trial was made on the strength OF
an offer of $4,000 by a Havana news
paper and $4,000 by the city of Hava-
ma. The United States navy depart
ment assisted with the loan of torpedo
boats to patrol the route, and there
was a wait of several days for the
wind to get right. McCurdy finally
started off early yesterday morning in
good shape and got along nicely for
about ninety miles, when as the result
of a ruptured crank caused his lubri-
eating oil to escape, and he had to
make a quick descent into the water.
The biplane was fitted with pontoons
and these sustained it beautifully, Nc
Curdy sitting high and dry until the
torpedo boats arrived and took him
off in a life boat. There was no ade-
uuate means for getting the biplane on
one of the torpedo boats and it was
badly injured. McCurdy was in plain
sight of Havana when the accident oc-
CURED and the attempt was all but
success.
