Southern Cities
Strive to Capture
Army Aerial Camp

Gen. James Allen, head of the Signal
Corps of the War Department. returned
to his office today after a months va
cation to Atlantic City.
When asked about the winter plans
for the army aviation school, General
Allen said: 81 will consider this matter
within the next two weeks The men will
go South, but as yet the location for
the camp has not been decided upon.
IT is probable that the camp here will
close about the first OF November"
number of Southern cities are anx-
ious to have the winter headquarters
established in the South. Several cities
along the Pacific coast would be glad
to get 1t. So far Augusta, Ga, and
Aiken, S. c., are the only cities that
have asked for the camp, but il is ex,,
pected that Palm Beach. Fla, and
Greenville, S. c., will file their requests
With the Signal Corps soon.
The entire feet of aeroplanes at the
Government school at College Park will
be sent South. 1t is just probable tina I
by the first of November at least two
more machines will be added to the
equipment, which will mean that six
machines will be sent.
The army officers are anxious to get
permission from the Signal Corps to fly
from College Park tC the Southern
camp, and this matter will be consid-
cred In a couple Of weeks.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-With the i'm
mediate opening the market showed
good strength; fractional advances, with
here and there q slight recession, were
general. The best strength was In
Union Pacific. Car Foundry, American
Locomotive, and General Electric.
Before the end OF the first hour weak

under way. The first announcement
that hurt was a wire from Philadelphia
to the effect that a trust company had
closed its doors. Then came rather I'M

English investors followed suit. The
Moroccan situation did not cut much
figure only as a side issue. The Deutsch
Bank Is expected to raise its rate of
discount tomorrow, and the Bank of
England will probably follow suit on
Thursday. Another cause Of uneasiness
was found in the persistent rumor that
the President would, in his Detroit
speech today, uphold Attorney General
Wickersham, and make a drastic anti
trust talk, all of which may or may not
be on the program, as the Street Is full
of rumors these days.

Milling, in New York,
4 Are Confident.

Confidently expecting to be returned
winners Of a number of events in the
big aviation meet in New York, which
begins there Saturday, Capt. Paul Beck
and Lieut. Thomas Dewitt Milling left
Washington last evening to prepare Tor
the events.
I'VE don't want to count chickens De-
fore they are hatched," said Captain
Beck. but we believe we will win a
few OF the purses
CAPTAIN Beck is considered one Of the
best Curtiss flyers in the country, and'
although he will compete in speed tests
against the peerless Lincoln Beachey'
he expects to win, because the Curtiss
company is going to give him one OF the
fastest machines they have Inc ma
chine he will handle is capable OF
making seventy-five miles an hour unoer
good conditions. Captain BECK Will
compete in the understanding test:
This test will be one of the most IN
teresting events in the big meet. Ine
aviator stands twenty-five feet In front
Of his machine, and couple OF heIpeIs
stand the same distance in the rear. Az
the crack of q pistol the aviator runs
to the seat of his machine, clllnps ILL.,
and the helpers rush to the propeller.
The time is taken until the blplane
gets OF the ground. Capt. Beck

tomorrow and in the. afternoon he ex-
meets tn make a number of trial flights
10 test out the engine and become ac-
Custumed to the aviation field.
Lieut. Milling's great work at the re-
recent Boston meet has placed him i'll
the limelignt. and he will Ice one of the
most popular flyers in New York. The
Burgess Wright company is placing
great confiden.e in his ability to ay, and
GurresS has riyer Lieut.. Milling his
own machlne. 1t will be shipped to
Now York Wednesday and on Thursday
and Friday afternoons Lieut.. Milling

noon. The Burgess Wright company

in the shop. 49,
The Government aviators will be
watched ut ;he New York meet more

DESPITE the fact that Claude GrahaTne-
White. Tom Sopwith. Earle Oyingson,
Hugh Robinson. Tom Baldwin, Lee

Vaniman's "Akron,"
Designed To Cross
Ocean, Nearly Ready

While all Washington Is watching the
papers each day to see what Johnny
Fowler and Jimmy Ward are doing in
their attempts to fly across this con-
tinent, great interest Is also being
taken in the announcement from At
lantic City, that the Akron, the big
Rest airship in the world, is nearing
completion, and will soon be ready for
a flight from this country to England.
The Akron" is being constructed
by Frank A. Seiberling ana Melvin
Vaniman, both of Akron, Ohio. 1t IS
26S feet long, and Will be capable of
lifting 5000 pounds. 1t will get its
power from six rapidly revolving pro-
pellers, and will have a speed of at
least fifty miles an hour
When completed. Mr.. Vaniman will
lead a crew of six men In an attempt
the trip in at least four days.
The machine is so arranged that
three OF the propellers are used at a
tine, thus giving a rest TO the other
three. The plan is TO work three en-
gines all the time and hold the others
for emergency power. They hope to
cross the ocean without a mishap.
; In addition to carrying six passen-
gers. the machine will have on board
five tons of gasolene, in a long tor
pedo-shaped tank below the car. Be-
meath the ship will be a twenty-nine-
