Commercial Club Decides to
Make Effort to Have the
Wright Brothers Send a
Team to Richmond.
AUTOMOBILE RACES
ARE ALSO PLANNED
Big Event, if Arrangements
Can Be Made, Will Be
Held at the Old Driving
Park Next June.

The Wright Brothers of Dayton. or
the men under contract by them, may
fy in Richmond this summer.
Plans are under way to secure two
day aeroplane exhibition of Wright
machines at the old fair grounds east
of the city probably in June. The
project originated with officers of the
Commercial club, and will be worked
out in detail at the board of directors
meeting to be held Monday, March s.
The whole plan hinges on whether
satisfactory arrangements can be
made with the air men.
II is also planned to have an auto
mobile exhibit and number of rae
ing contests in connection with the
aeronautic exhibitions, and to make
the event the greatest attraction ever
held in the Quaker City. Those be.
hind the project believe that crowds
would be drawn from all over In
diana and from Eastern Ohio in such
numbers as to defray the expense 1t
is argued that the event would be
heralded in the newspapers through
out the country and that city would
receive excellent advertising through
the crowds attracted to the city.
Want the Wrishts Here.
While it is not believed possible to
secure the Wright Brothers to make
flights, as they have been holding
strictly to the policy of having all ex-
hibitions made by men under contract
to them, it is hoped to secure their
presence to lend prestige to the
event.
AS outlined the plans call for a
flight from the Wright station at Day
ton to this city. the bird men arriving
here about two o'clock in the after
noon and giving series of exhibitions
lasting several hours. The flights
would be continued the next afternoon
and for climax there would be re-
turn flight made to Dayton. In the
event that too large sum is asked
for the cross country flights from Day.
IL
eliminated from the program.
The exhibitions would include vari-
GUS kinds Of maneuvers. speed and
height flights, and in general give the
Richmond. public and the people who
attend from this an other states an
opportunity of Witnessing the most
modern aeronautical ifeats performed
by the most expert bird men in the
world.
Local Auto Events.
II arrangements are perfected the
fair grounds will be secured from the
Richmond Driving association, which
recently acquired lease. 1t is be-
heved the track will be placed in
such condition by the association by
that time to allow a number of inter-
esting automobile races. 1t is prob
able that none but local drivers will
be asked to compete, but from the
way a number Of the drivers for local
auto factories have been handling
cars in test trips of late there is little
doubt but that the contests would
prove as interesting as If the more
prominent "daredevils" were matched
against each other.
Booths and incidental attractions
would be arranged for, but not to an
extent to detract from the main feat
ure.
All. of course. depends on arrange
ments to be made with the Wrights.

ATTACK ON MEXICO CITY.
Situation Fraught With Peril and Much Fear Expressed For
 Foreigners There.

Mexico City, May 13-That an in- surgent attack upon Mexico City and an uprising of Madero sympathizers here is believed to be imminent is in- dicated, today, by the precautions be- ing taken by the officials. The ap- breaches to the National Palace, Be- Ian Prison and the main Qualifications are, today, guarded by cannon hastily mounted while the city garrison has been increased 1000 men during the last twenty-four hours. Secret orders have been issued to the commandants of the garrison that on the slightest sign of an uprising the soldiers are to use their arms.
 The situation is admittedly danger ous and, the foreign diplomats are in almost constant communication plan- ming how best to protect their peo- pie when the battle comes.
 It is admitted that the attitude of the foreigners in preparing to raise a guard to do police duty, should neces- sity arise, has aroused much discon- tent among Mexicans. Both Diaz and Madero sympathizers, today, denounce the move as provocative.
 Should an uprising develop it is feared the foreign section would be the first object of attack.
 More than .75 percent of the foreign women and children have been sent out of the capital during the past fortnight. Clerks of the Bank of Lon don and other financial institutions have been armed.

AEROPLANE REAL
 SPORT DECLARES ALLAN R. HAWLEy

Allan R. Hawley, world-famed ball. loonist, was one of the visitors at the Bridgeport Aerodrome yesterday.
 "Ballooning's fun, but this is real sport" he declared while he watched McCurdy circling the field.
 "Of course bal1ooning is exciting, but it isn't in it with this,' said MT. Hawley.
 You get. into your balloon and then the wind takes you wherever it hap pens to be blowing. You can't tell where you're going or when you'll get there. An aeroplane is different. You step into it, turn the motor and then you're off, and steer in whatever direction you like"
 Allan R. Hawley and Augustus Post are the holders of the United States record for distance in balloon ing On October IT to 19 they won the interna tional balloon race, starting at St. Louis and coming down in the wilds of Canada, near Lake Tschoto- gama, Quebec. In addition to winning the race, they created a distance rec ord of 1,171.13 miles.
 Post and Hawley had a narrow es- cape from perishing in the wilderness in which their car descended but they were saved by Canadian guide, who discovered them.

MRS. HAMILTON
 AN AVIATRESS,
 IS LOCAL GIRL
Daily Visitor at the Bridge port Meet with Her Fla
 nous Husband Acts as His Nurse When He Insists in Taking a Bad
 Tumble

If you have been a daily attendant at the aviation meet, you may have become accustomed to witnessing a of an automobile with huge wheels that make you think of the driving wheels of a locomotive, driving into the automobile parking space, with a slight, frail, unassuming chap at the steering wheel, and a tall, pretty girl with a wealth of chestnut hair and most attractive smile at his side.
 That young fellow is Charles K. Hamilton, one of the pioneers of aerial navigation in all forms, and the girl is Mrs. Hamilton, Bridgeporter, the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Chris Lu- gan of 1544 Park avenue. If Hamilton is entitled to recognition among the leading bird men of the world, Mrs. Hamilton is worthy of a just share of credit, for she too has made suc- cessful flights, and she is keen for the sport of soaring bird-like up to- wards the clouds.
 MT. and Mrs. Hamilton have been daily visitors at the meet. Hamilton 8 home is New Britain where he has been living quietly for several weeks. Mrs. Hamilton has been visiting with AACI pCOPlC III lIlIS Clly, Uul WI6H lIl6 meet opened here, he drove from New Britain in his 90 h. p. American road ster, joined his wife, and contrary to his usual practice, prepared to enjoy the meet as a spectator rather than as an active participant.
 MT. and Mrs. Hamilton are a most devoted couple. They have travelled throughout the United States, Mexico, Central America, through the Orient and through Europe in the course of MT. Hamiltons most eventful career. In Georgia last fall she made a spec tacular flight with her husband, and she has been waiting a favorable op- portunity since then to get another trip.
 Mrs. Hamilton is not only her hus- bands travelling companion, but she is also his nurse. The daring little flyer has had no les than 27 falls during his career as a flyer five of them from flying machines. and two of them miraculous escapes from deaths. Mrs. Hamilton has been able to minister to his wants as no other person could and while he is laid up nursing his wounds, she has been al- most constantly at his side.
 Mrs. Hamilton enjoys the travel in- cidental to her husbands daring vo- cation, but she is glad to have an op- portunity. to revisit Bridgeport. occa- sionally, and renew the many friend ships, she formed here.

REBELS EAGER
 TO CHARGE ON
 THE CAPITAL
Special from United Press. }

Fl Paso, May 13-The statement is- sued by Senor Limantour that Presi- dent Diaz was greatly in earnest when he promised to resign the Presidency, is regarded by many today as mak- ing toward speedy peace in Mexico. Despite the tremendous advantage the capture of Juarez has given them, many insurrecto chieftains openly fa- vor charge on the capital
 It is asserted by many that Oroszco wants to take from Garibaldi and the Americans the credit for bringing about the capture of JuareZ, and has made false charges to aid this belief.
 A serious difference between the in- surgent military leaders in Juarez is reported today, which may have seri- ous consequences. Possession of the person of General Navarro the Fed eral prisoner of war, is the cause of the breach. General Oroszco and Col onel Villa are said to favor the inn mediate execution of Navarro for in- huma ntreatmen of wounded insur- gents while Francisco -Madero is quot ed as notifying the two subordinates that they will have to shoot him be- fore he will permit Navarro to be slain
 Oroszco is believed to have threat ened to seize Navarro anyway and a riot is now threatened.
