Jules Vedrines Took Fatal

PARIS, April 29.-Jules Vedrines,
probably the most noted of French
airmen remaining in competition, is
believed to be dying in Lari Boisiere

base and at the top and internal in
juries which were almost certain to
result in death.
Half a dozen OF the best surgeons
in France operated on Vedrines at one
o'clock this afternoon. At the con-
clusion of the operation they issued
bulletin saying that their patient
had rallied somewhat and that he
may have a chance to recover.
General regret at the accident is
expressed although the experienced
airmen attribute it entirely to the
aviator's own recklessness. In all OF
his recent flights he has astounded
his comrades by the speed and daring
of his flights. His engines have been
the highest powered possible Of manu-
facture and his aeroplanes have been
much larger than any other aviator
dared use.
The accident to Vedrines took
place at els this morning. He had
left Douai at Sis and was determined
to make the flight to Madrid before
nightfall and thereby es tablish rec
ord that would stand for years. He
( had been flying exactly one hour when
he met disaster Examination of his
demolished motor has failed TO ex-
plain exactly what caused the acci.

en- pedestal. This fact is causing
police apprehension because 1t is be-
lieved that Garnier, the youth who was
Bonnots chief assistant, will be able
to recruit new band from among
the most desperate of French crimi-
nails.
The search today is being pushed
for GARNER and the police feel certain
that he is being shielded by anarchists

quarters in Choisy Leroi. Orders
have been issued that he Is to be tax

partment who personally %an down

That Bonnot and his aide, Dubois,
proprietor of the garage In which both
later met death, should have been able
to Withstand the assault OF some
1000 armed men including detach-
ments of the republican guard, corps
OF engineers and detachment OF ar
tillery, amazed everyone and there
was a general disposition to criticise
the officials for this fact.
Superintendent Lepine accepted all
responsibility. He stated emphatic
ally today that the two criminals had
taken enough human life and he did
not intend to permit them to glorify
themselves in the eyes Of the under
world" by adding number Of addi-
tional victims to their list In their
last moments.
II wanted these men and got them
without unnecessary bloodshed, de-
clared the veteran thief-taker this
afternoon.

remaining members of the band in
