With their hands encased in gloves

termine the purity Of the metal, and

Paris July 24-Opinion in France is that
the time has arrived for Germany to say
what she really wants. since the present
situation of uncertainty is now entering
upon a stage which may actually disturb
international relations.
Oncially the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
had nothing TO say to-day concerning the
pessimistic talk except that conversations
regarding possible solutions continue be-
tween Baron Won Kiderlen- Wachter. the
German Secretary of State for Foreign AZ
fairs. and Jules Cambon. the French Am
bassador in Berlin. Unofficially hints ap-
pear in the press that the time is about
come for the futilty OF the conversations
to be obvious even TO optimistic observers
Meantime the speech Of David Lloyd
George. the British Chancellor OF the Ex-
cheduer before the London bankers last
week is interpreted as a direct warning 10
Germany. and is considered as having
enormously strengthened the attitude or
France. which will not accept any German
proposal for a wholesale turning over or
French colonial territory.
The press is unanimous in it's opinion
that LLOYD Georges words signify that the
Anglo French entente is really an alliance
with which Germany must reckon. Rus
sia naturally is expected TO throw all her
influence on the side Of her republican
ally in making effective the agreement
which the world calls the Triple Entente
Although the press remains calm. there Is
a distinct tendency to re-emphasize Ger
many's manner of forcing the negotiations
as brutal" and the Temps" which is IN
close relations with the government de-
clares succinctly that Germany has lost
the confidence of the other European

TWO AVIAT0RS RUN PLANE
Control Shifted with Ease in One
Machine in Test.

HammondspOrt y. Y. July 24.-For
the first time in the history Of aviation,
heavier-t -than-air machine was oper-
ated successfully to-day by two avia-
tors. each of whom alternately assumed
control of the machine. The test was
made above Lake KeOka by Lieutenant
Theodore G. Ellyson. Of the navy. and
Captain Paul W. Beck, of the army, in
the new hydro-aeroplane recently
bought by the navy.
The flight was over a circular course,
lasted for eight miles at an altitude of
800 feet and control was shifted appar-
emily without indication that the wheel
had passed from one aviator TO the
other. The shift control is the invention
of Glenn II. Curtiss.
