TRYING TO STOP
FUSION QU|BBLES
Expect Get-Together Move To-
day, Despite G. o. P.
Ticket Talk.

NEW YORK, August Parties to
the fusion movement in opposition to
Tammany at the coming mayoralty
contest expected today to have the
situation as to their ticket cleared up
In a harmonious way. Although no
definite statement had come from
District Attorney Charles 8. Whit
man, it was accepted as well under
stood that he had decided positively
not to bolt the fusion ticket on which
he was nominated for reelection as
district attorney instead of receiving
the mayoralty nomination, which
went to John Purroy Mitchell, the
customs collector of this port A
statement from Mr. Whitman to this
effect was expected some time today.
The Republican leaders who held up
Mr.. Whitman as a favorite, however,
were still attempting to induce him to
run Independently, and it was said
that the feeling among the leaders
was such that if Mr.. Whitman would
not run they might carry on a lone
fight anyhow with some other man
as candidate for mayor. Those urg-
ing such a bolt were talking of Henry
A. Wise, former United States attor-
ney, as a possible candidate, but the
less disgruntled among the Republi-
cans were IN favor of standing by the
ticket headed by Mitchell, admitting
that there was little chance of success
in such a triangular fight.

boy in the West.

LONDON, Aug. Colonel f. s.
Cody, the famous Anglo
aviator, was killed in an aeroplane
accident at Aldershot today.
Cody was trying out a new aero
plane when he met his death. In the
machine with him was a passenger
named Evans, who was also killed.
They were flying over the open coun-
try, most of which is government
land in the Aldershot district, and
had Just reached the government
house when their aeroplane began
travelling badly and finally fell with
a crash to the ground. Several Of
ficials rushed to the spot and found
the bodies of Cody and Evans lying
beneath the aeroplane.
Cody was the most interesting figure
In aviation in the British Isles. He
was real soldier of fortune, with a
very varied career behind him. He
was well known to the public in Eng
land and very popular. He wore
sombrero, long mustache, an i'm
perial and long hair, and was almost
an exact replica of Buffalo Bill"
Cowboy in the West.
He came to England a number of
years ago from the United States,
where he had been a cowboy in the
West. He had severe struggle to
obtain a start in England. After liv-
ing precariously for a while he at
tracted the attention of the experts
In the British war office on account
of display of natural gifts of con-
struction, particularly in aerial ma
chimes. He was said to be able to
build anything in the way of flying
machine or balloon.
His first experiments were made
with box kites. These he developed
on the British military training
grounds at Aldershot. where 10000 of
the finest troops In the British army
are always kept in readiness to march

WASHINGTON SILENT ON
MEXCO'S LIND UTTERANCE

WASHINGTON. Aug 7.-Mexico's
announcement that John Lind, Presi-
dent Wilson'S personal representative,
will be unwelcome unless he brings
recognition of the Huerta govern
ment, failed to draw administration
officials into any expression of policy
today Secretary Bryan absolutely
declined to discuss it. His message
of last night to Charge O'Shaugh-
messy, saying the Huerta government
should await the delivery of Presi-
dent Wilson's communication before
taking a position on Lind's visit, un-
doubtedly reflects the attitude of the
administration.
Mr. Lind sailed from Galveston
early today on the battleship New
Hampshire. The run to Vera Cruz is
about 625 miles, and the ship should
nut in there probably tomorrow night.
Twelve hours later Mr.. Lind should
be in Mexico City.

WALL BLOCKS FIRE IN
CONEY ISLANDS MIDST

NEW YORK, Aug. IA light wind
and a brick wall saved Coney Island
from dangerous fire this morning.
Battalion Chief William Rogers
watched the wind anxiously for a
while and then said he was sure his
men and the brick wall would win
out.
But while the danger of a general
confiagration threatened there was q
wild rush of concession holders to
save their belongings. The blaze was
at the Imperial cafe on Thompson s
Walk, between the Bowery and Surf
avenue, right in the heart of Coney
Islands pleasure ground. No one was
in the two-story frame building at
the time.
The Coney Island Bank building, a
frame structure, stood beyond with
all it's windows open. 1t was not
reached by the flames, but was well
smoked. Nobody could be found who
could get in to close the windows.
