MRS. BULLS DAUGHTER
 SOLE HEIR TO PROPERTY
Settlement Effected in Will Case Long
 Contested

Boston, June 27@By the terms of an agreement reached out of court today, Mrs. O1ea Bull Vaughan be- comes the sole heir to the half million dollar estate left by her mother, Mrs. Ole Bull, widow of the celebrated Nor wegian violinist. The agreement was reached at a series of conferences held in Boston today between the counsel in the contested will case, which has been on trial for several weeks in the probate court of York county, Maine.
 The announcement that settlement was in sight was made late today by Ralph s. Bartlett, one of Mrs. Waugh ans attorneys. While the details of the settlement were not given out, it was stated at MT. Bart1ett's office that the attorneys had reached an agree ment involving the setting aside of the will, and that Mrs. Vaughan would be the sole heir and could do as she liked with the property.
 Mrs. Bulls excursions into Hindu mysticism have formed the chief sub ject matter of the testimony at the hearings in the will contest. Although Mrs. Buli had spent most of the time during the last years of her life at her home in Cambridge, Mass, known as Studio house, where she died last winter, she maintained a legal resi- dence in York county, Maine. She had made many visits to Maine, chief ly to Greenacre in Eliot, where she was interested in the philosophical and mystical gatherings instituted by the late Miss Sarah Farmer.

eEAcHY PERFORMS FERROUS
 FEAT AT NIAGARA FALLS.
THROUGH BRIDGE PASSAGE
EipIane Cleared Water by Not Moro Than Thirty Feet-Aviator Says it
 Was Most Exciting Trip of His Life.

Niagara Falls, N. Y., June 27.-With the whir of his biplane motor drown ed in the roar of the cataract and man and machine mOmentarily obScured in spray and mist, Lincoln Beac1y, the California aviator, today, after circIing bove the falls, swooped beneath the arches of the upper steel bridge and down the gorge almost to the wirl- pool
 Landed on Canadian Side.
 Rising again between the precipitous sides of the lower river, Beachy soar ed to the Canadian side, where he made a successful landing. It was the first time that bird-ma had cut through the air currents and mist caused by Niagara Falls and rapids that have Iur- ed so many adventurers to their death.
 Twice Sailed Above Cataract.
 Throngs on the American and Cana dian shores, on the Three Sister Is- lands and on the bridge gazed with fascination at the aviator, as he rose to a height of about 1000 feet, twice cir cled above the cataract, and then made the long swoop toward the narrow passage under the bridge.
 Sailed Through Bridge Passage.
 His biplane came racing over the Horseshoe Falls so low that he was lost to view for an instant, and then
  close, it seemed to those above. Ii seemed almost to skim the water as he made the bridge passage midway be- tween the two abutments and almost 75 feet below the lowest steel girders of the structure.
 Within 30 Feet of Whirlpool.
 Passing the bridge, Beacny continued on down the gorge almost to the whirl pool rapids, clearing the water by no. more than thirty feet, and his biplane tipping uneven1y in the peculiar air currents encountered in the deep pocket. There was a cry of relief from the crowd when they saw the bip1ane at last soar to highr altitude and, clearing the Canadian bank by a nar- row margin, sail away in safety.
 His Most Exciting Trip.

RECIPROCITY OPPONENTS
 WERE CAUGHT MAPPING
Great Hue and Cry Raised After Dis
 covering What Had Happened.

Washington, June 27.-The tension tllat exists in the senate over the reel procity measure was emphasized by incidents that occurred Tn the confused proceedings of today TIC session be- gan with an unsuccessful attempt by Chairman Penrose of the finance com mittee to secure an agreement for vote on reciprocity July 24, on the wool bill July 26 and free list bill July 2S. Friends of reciprocity will insist upon coupling all three measures in any agreement to vote
 After refusing to permit such an ar- engagement. the opponents of the reci- procity bill allowed that measure to advance one important parliamentary step before they realized what had happened. For a quarter of IT hour the senate was in executive session. At it's conclusion, no one being ready to speak on the measure, and follow ing parliamentary custom Of that body, Vice President Sherman announced that the bill would be reported from the committee of the whole to the sen- ate.
 The bill actually passed through all the stages of being reported to the senate before members realized what was going on While under considera- ton in the committee of the whole, the measure could he amended, but could not be voted upon. In the sen- ate it could be brought to a final vote at any time. Senators Nelson, Bris- tow, Clapp and Bailey joined in the protest that arose when it was foun1 what had happened to the bill
 At first. Senator Penrose objected to having the measure reinstated in the committee of the whole. He said the senate had shown no disposition to hurry in it's consideration of the bill and had rejected his proposal for definite time for a vote on the meas ure. He therefore thought no back ward step should be taken.
 Friends of the bill or the democratic side, however, led by Senators Stone and Bacon, said the senate had evil dently been off it's guard and had per- mitted the bill to be advanced unin- tentionally Senator Penrose finally consented to having it restored to its former status.

FREIGHT CARS GO
 OVER EMBANKMENT.
Disastrous Wreck on Hartford and
 Poughkeepsie Bridge Route.

Towners, N. Y. June 27.-A freight wreck which will probably tie up traf- fic on the Hartford and Poughkeepsie bridge route of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad until late tomorrow took place in front of the station here this afternoon. More than twenty cars of an eaStbound freight train left the tracks, smashed over 2,000 ties and tore up the roadbed for several hundred feet. Thee derailment was caused by the breaking of a truck on coal car just as the train, which was going down grade at good speed, was passing the station.
 The cars smashed the station plat form, and William Raymond, the op- orator, narrowly escaped with his life. Just beyond the station 6. bridge spans one of the streets of the town, and four sets of trucks were thrown from that into the, street below, together with several rails. Two cars were left lying over the bridge railing. When the cars left the track the engine with ten cars. including the car on which the truck broke that caused the de- railment, continued down the track, the engineer putting on full steam un- der the impression that the train had broken in two and that the rear section was following.
 over the tracks of tEe Harlem River division, when the coal car jumped sideways across the tracks. Four men were riding on the coal car, three of whom were thrown off when the first break came, and the fourth stayed on until the car jumped the tracks at the bridge. All disappeared and are sup posed to have escaped injury.
 Several cars went over twenty five foot enbankment beyond the bridge over the street, and rails were thrown with such force that they pierced the sides of the cars.
 All freight traffic is held up and pas sengers are being transferred around the wreckage.

London, June 27-The king and queen and royal and distinguished guests attended the second command performance in connection with the coronation festivities at His Majesty's theater tonight This might be de- scribed as an alI-star perfcrma nee to an al1-Star audience.
 For this occasion Sir Herbert Beer bohm Tree had arranged a superb pro- gramme. He received their majesties beautiful by the adoption of a scheme of decoration along Grecian lines, re- marka ble for their delicate simplicity. Owen Seaman, editor of Punch. boldly paraphrasing Shakespeare in the pro- logue composed for tonight's perform ance, emphasized the fact by writing: "The plays the thing,
 Wherein to snatch a conquest of the
 king"
 So the distinguished audience was treated to scenes from ''The Merry Wives of Windsor David Garriclk,' y Julius Caesar" The Critic and Ben Jonscns masque, "The Vision of De- light in which appeared more than 300 actors and actresses standing at the top of their respective branches in the profession, with minor actors and actresses filling Supernumerary roles, the whole number engaged reaching nearly 1000. To accommodate this ex- u OoIt-lIdly Cclot3 III CfofoiiiS iOOiilo w Ci v provided in the shops in the arcade at the back of the theater and the Carl ton hotel.
 The king wore the uniform of a field marshal, with the Garter ribbon. The queen wore wonderful robe of old gold with the insignia of the Garter which was presented her by the Marys of fhe emprie. and aSdiamond d fer de lis and Maltese cross tiara.
 Special American Ambassador Ham mond was guest in the royal box and sat beside Prince Louis of Battenberg, who. in a heavily gold braided admir- aTs uniform, appeared gorgeous in comparison with the representative of the United States, who was in conven- tional evening dress. Mrs. Hammond wore an emerald green satin gown embroidered with dull gold.
