DOUBLE CONTROL ON
WRIGHT AEROPLANE
New Set OF Levers for Use of
Passengers Proves
Success.

A new set of control levers has been
placed on the old Wright biplane in
use at the army aviation school at Col
lege Park. The control 10 distinctly
different from the one that has been
used by the Wrights since they made
their first machines. Formerly they
used three levers. The new control has
four.
Heretofore, when an aviator learned
to fy from the right.hnId seat in the
Wright he would find II difficult to
handle the machine from the left-hanI
seat. But with the new control the
manipulation e .ust the same from one
seat az the other.
This IL considers ed important because
In case of the sudden illness OF An
aviator while flying his companion or
brother-aviator In the other seat could
manipulate the machine until safe
landing was made.
The new control has been tried by
Lieut. Henry II. Arnold, who SAYS II is
a great improvement over the old style.

Haitian GunbOat Can
Now Be Bought Cheap

PHILADELPHIA, July THE Hal
tian gunboat Ferrier, which came to the
Philadelphia navy yard last April for
extensive repairs, will not return to
Haiti but probably will be sold to the
highest bidder, it was learned here
last night.
The vessel was brought to this coun-
try at the instance of the Navy Depart
ment, which offered to put the vessel
IN fighting trim after several private
shipyards had declined to undertake
the Job. When it was learned that the
Haitian government would not guaran-
tee the payment of the cost of the ex-
tensive repairs, work on the boat was
stopped The cost of overhauling the
vessel was estimated at more than
100000

Panama law authorized the issuance

Owing TO the excellent condition OF
Uncle Sans finances only about
$2S3. 100000 worth of bonds have been
sold, the rest having been expended

minimum width OF the canal.
The canal Is to be about fifty miles
long from deep water In the Carrib-
bean Sea TO deep water In the Pacific
Ocean. The channel will vary in
width from 1000 at a point just south
OF the Gatun locks TO 500 feet at a
point near the Pedro Miguel lock.
There will be number OF places
where several boats can pass abreast
OF each other and the minimum depth
will be al feet.
These are all revised estimates just

plans having been made necessary by
engineering and other problems
