who saw the accident
They were trying out new six-cylin-
der machine" he said. "and they were
between eighty and one hundred feet
from the ground when they lost control.
The machine was new, and Kelly was not
familiar with IT, Ellington went as in
structor.
THE machine had dual control. which
enabled either occupant TO manage 1t at
will. The controls were connected, en-
abling the instructor 10 correct instantly
any mistake made by the pupil.
The machine apparently began its de-
scent In proper manner and at the
usual angle. Then II appeared out OF con-
troll The altitude was so low we felt
the officers would have only a rough fall.
"A careful inspection OF the wrecked
aeroplane convinced us that the controls
we're in good order. The men were in
sgantly killed
Lieutenant Kelly was a native OF Ken
lucky. He had been commandant at
Kentucky University. He was son OF
Colonel r. VI. Kelly. for many years editor

Independents Also Take up
Speakership Question at
Second Conference.
TO MAKE HOUSE
ITS OWN MASTER
Ten New Members Added
Leaders Now Expect Majority
in Next Legislature.

A second conference Of the independents
consisting of Republicans. Democrat" ana
Progressives, in the coming Assembly was
held last night at the Hotel Breroort'
There were thirty members present ana
twelve others heard from who wer" UNI
avoidably kept away. making a gain OF
ten over the first conference. Andrew r.
Murray was chairman. Committees were
appointed on the Speakership and the re-
vision Of the Assembly rules.
The former will consider the qua'hca-
tions Of candidates for the SpeakeEship
and their attitude on questions which are
20 come up in the next Legislature, chiefly
the revision Of the rules, home rule, d.
rect primaries and other progressive
measures The committees will report al
third conference TO be held on Deem
Der G. at . p. m, the place of meeting yet
10 he determined.
Several Of the Republican Assembly
men foregathered at the Harvard CLUB
including S NJ. Meyer, secretary OF the
conference, and issued a statement in re-
gard TO what took place at the confer
ence. which was held in executive ses-
sion.
They emphasized two things-frst that
in the course of a general discussion OF
the legislative situation, the majority felt
that thorough revision of the rules OF
procedure in the Assembly that will
make the Assembly its own master was
more important than the personality OF
the Speaker Secondly, that the confer
ence was i'm no sense a caucus, but that
those present were in TO way bound 10
refrain from participation in their ovn
party caucuses.
Several names for the candidacy for the
Speakership were informally discussed at
the conference. The meeting was essen
TALLY anti Barnes. Some of the Assem-
blymen were outspoken in their diSap-
prevail of any candidate who was a
Barnes henchman, whether or not the
state leader would pursue a policy of
hands off, at the next Legislature, as
some of The legislators thought he might
do.
Among the names mentioned and dis
cussed were: Harold j. Hinman, of AL
bany County Barnes mani; John l.. Sui
IVAN, OF CndulduQud NtuHlN CllltOH ~
Horton, Of Buffalo; Alexander MacDon-
aid. of Franklin County; Thaddeus G..
Sweet Of Oswego County; Michael
Schaap, Of New York, and William Sui
zer who has written every member Of
the Assembly, announcing his candidacy
for the office.
Any Suzer sentiment was conspicuous
by its absence. 1t was the opinion that
an independent Republican Should be the
next Speaker. The Independents main
tain they really now have ffty-two mem
bers on their side who have been present
or expressed their approval Of these con-
ferences. The leaders expect to rally
eighty, or a majority control of The
Legislature, to their cause.
The members selected for the commit
tee on the speakership were: Sidney G.
Crane (RepD. of the 23d Assembly Dis
trict, New York. chairman; Mark Eisner

MILITIA CONTROL
HIT BY DECISION
Controller of Currency Rules
War Department Cannot
Prescribe Strength.
From The Tribune Bureau.
Washington, November a.

Washington, November a.
CONTROL OF MILITIA DEVELOP
MENr-The Secretarg of War Is en-
gagged In another controversy concerning
the militia, and las appealed TO the
Controller OF the Treasury for recon-
sjderatior OF decision which has the
effect OF multiplying the War Departments
control of the development of the militia.
For some time the department., under
the militia law OF 1903, has undertaken TO
make regulations for the strength OF
militia commands, the number OF oHlcers
Of each rank, etc The department re-
Gently had occasion TO require an IN
creased number Of men In n command AT
rifle practice and other work to establlsh
the minimum force entitled to draw pay.
The Controller has decided that the
Secretary Of War has no right TO pre-
scribe this numerical strength.
The question was presented as result
of instructions given in Arizona, wnen SIX
companies Of an infantry regiment we're
represented by forty-four persons, oil
whom eleven were officers. In other
words, there was an officer for every
three men. when Their. should have been
twelve officers and one hundred and
twenty men The Controller holds that
the men are entitled to pay regardless
Of the number present Tire War Depart
ment insists that there shall be enough
men OF the prescribed numerical strength
to make IL worth while 20 give the in
struction. and that this is necessary suff-
GENTLY to develop the militia.
The Secretary OF War has point ID out
TO the Controller that II the latter's
decision stands il will be possible for a
regiment To be represented by one officer
and one enlisted man, which would be
iarcical. 1t would be impossible TO in
struct a regiment" under such condi-
tons vet ~ virtue Of the Controllers
decision the officer ana the soldier pres mt
would be entitled To pay. II Is this sort
Of thing which the Secretary OF War de-
sres to avoid, and he has sought 20 have
the Controller amend his ruling.
II it is not possible for the Controller
TO change his decision to accord with the
views expressed by Secretary Garrison,
the Secretary will explain the situation to
Congress and ask for revision Of The law.
