Young Hackenschmidt, the middle
weight athlete who is to meet Joe Tur-
ner at the Gayety Theater tonight in
finish match. arrived in Washington
early today, primed for what he con-
siders the most important battle of his
mat career. Hackenschmit went imme-

he was shown evidence by Manager
Peck that an attractive purse has been
posted for the winner. The clever mid

His Moral Sense.

A PROPOS Of another scandal in the
New York bar. bishop Winston C.
Rutherford said in Mobile:
The morals OF the New York bar
seem to be about like the morals of Col.
Byrne, no better and no worse.
Col. Byrne. a Kenucldan, defended q
man for murder. II was testified that
this man murdered a woman on the
night of August 20. Two or three wit
nesses saw the deed. II was committed
under the milky light of q full moon.
The witnesses were able TO identify
the defendant on account OF the brill
lance OF the moonlight. The defendant
could not prove an alibi, and things look
ed pretty bad for him.
But at this point Col. Byrne produced
an almanac showing that on the night In
question there had been no moon what
ever. Thereupon q great laugh resOund-
ed through the courtroom. and the de-
fendant was speedily acquitted.
Colonel said the defendant after

the rising of the sun at in the morning
and be on the Irish coast in time for din
ner at S o'clock in the evening All OF
that ride would be in the daylight and
we should be landed the same day we
started"
SIS there possibility that one might
go even quicker than that. DR.. Beli?'
YES" replied the scientist, "but I do
not wish to be quoted as saying anything
more definite than that flying machines
should be able to cross the ocean In a
single day. I have no doubt that drome
will increase Its speed In the rarer air
high above ground. but whether this IN
crease will be strictly proport1onate to
the diminution Of density Is a point that
/ am not yet prepared to assert The
winds are also more steady there than at
the ground. According to Mr.. f. w.
Baldwin, who has been working out a
series Of calculations as to the speed Of
flying machines at high elevations. the
speed of the machine will rapidly increase
as 1t goes upward. Mr.. Baldwin says that
it Is absurd to judge the speed of ny
ing machine by its performance at low
elevation He says that the resistance OF
the air decreases as the air grows thin
ner and at the same time the power
which moves the machine has the same
force. lie asserts lIdt WileH tHC iiia
chine rises to height of 16OOO feet 1t
gets into air which Is only half as dense
as the air at the ground. According to
him, the propeller then meets with only
half the resistance, but it can go twice
as fast. and it therefore has the same
pushing force as at the ground. AT the
same time the aerodrome itself meets
only half the resistance and therefore It
goes twice as fast. He describes the
speed of the drome near the ground as
like that Of a motor car on low gear, and
says all that is necessary for high alti-
tude is a gear shifting arrangement, such
as we have on our automobiles. You
change your gear as you rise, just as you
do with your car when you go up hill.
In this way you could leave the ground at
a moderate speed, have q high speed In
the air and, changing your gear, al1ght
without danger"
Now. If Mr.. Baldwin's calculations
shold prove true in actual flying, the
speed of the machine at 10000 feet high
would be almost doubled, and the posi-
BILE velocity, without the assistance of
the winds would be 200 miles per hour
instead of 100 1t seems to me. however,
that 1t is quite enough to prophesy that
we shall be able to fly across the ocean
in a day"
But. Dr. Bell, would it be possible for
man to cross the Atlantic at $4,000 feet

height l had bad attack of soroche, OF

connected with every movement in the d.
rection Of aerial navigation.
DR.. Bell was closely associated with
Langley in his experiments as to artificial
flight, and he was with him when the
first heayier-than air machine was sent
by steam flying this way and that across
the Potomac. He is member of the
chief societies Of aeronauts, and his own
researches as to the basic principles or
aerial navigation have done much to
bring that science where 1t is today
great deal Of DR.. Bells work has
been in connection with others. He was
an associate Of Simon Newcomb, VINO
had striking theories as to the weight OF
bodies of certain shapes while IN the
air. he is also friend and ADVISER OIL
Glenn Curtiss. and much of the Work
of F. W. Baldwin has been connecteu
with his experiments at Baddeck, Nova
Scotia. Dr. Bell has made tetraneorai RAJ
kites. which have supported men In the
air. and he has a well equipped 1ylhs
machine laboratory at Baddeck, where
Mr.. Baldwin is now carrying on ms eA
periments as to the hydrodrome ana
making wonderful discoveries as to the
rapid movement OF DoatS through pio
water.
DIR. Bell has what might be called the
scientific imagination, and his deductiohs
deal with possibilities far beyond tnose
of the ordinary inventor His MIND works
along scientific lines, and its nights AT
times make the head OF the layman Duzz
TO comprehend them.
Our talk as to short trips across lne
Atlantic took place after midnight last
Thursday, in the big library OF ms
house on Connecticut avenue. We mao
before us the statistics of all the pest
aerial flights yet made and DR.. Bell hg-
ured out his calculations on fve-cent
pad as he talked. Said he:
1.-The shortest distance between New
foundland and Ireland is less than 2UoJ
miles and the fastest speed record or
heavier than-air machine was made Dy
James J. Vedrines in Deperdussin
aerodrome on the 9th of September last.
His speed was over 107 miles an hour.
Now let US suppose that that machine
could keep up speed of even 100 miles
an hour. and it would cross the Atlantic
ocean within twenty hours. II the night
were made from America to Europe we
would have the winds to help us along.
and this would give us an additional We
locity of at least twenty-five miles per
hour, as the general trend Of our winds is
from west to east. Adding this to the
100 miles, we have a speed of 125 miles
an hour, at which rate we could cover the
1000 miles in just sixteen hours. If we
left Newfoundland at high noon we might
be landed In Ireland at O'Clock In the
morning. giving US four hours margin
for our 8 o'clock breakfast. Or, during

until got down the mountain. I should
not like to fly to Ireland feeling that
way"
That can be easily prevented" said
the scientist. '.All that you need is to
have your place in the machine so COW
cred at the sides and back that you get
the air only from the front. Your sick
ness on the Andes was caused by the
thinness and rarity Of the air. It was
not dense enough to give you your usual
amount of oxygen. This is avoided by
the speed Of the flying machine, which
goes so fast that 1t condenses the air
within the hood, and gives you air to
breathe Of practically the same quality
as that you had when leaving the ground
This density will vary with the speed Of
your machine, and no matter how fast
you go, your supply of oxygen will be
just what you need. At 10000 feet you
are In air which is half the density OF

two years ago. Premier Khuen-Heder-
vary brought in a new army bill, which
materially increased the annual Hun
garian contingent. The Justh independ-
ence party refused to let 1t pass. Unless
national concessions were granted they
would stop the bill by obstruction. Khuen-
Hedervary again threatened to make Tis-
"a speaker, and said he would give him
power to suppress obstruction by force.
The frightened opposition agreed to terms
arranged by Tisza's cousin, Count Julius
Andrassy. II Tisza was not made speak

The compromise was to end and both
sides were to be free when the clock

lessness he had to write books on agra

standard on the price of grain.
Tisza earned praise as a precise and
concise speaker, and he earned fear
by his brow-beating scowl. He was
rude to foes, and he showed skill in
making them obnoxious. Later he had
an eye operation. The eye operation
left Tisza unable to see to right or
left, but only straight ahead. Today
people say that is characteristic of
CROMWELL Tisza. He can only think,
speak and act ahead. And in fact
Tisza derides all compromises, ma
neuvers and pacts. His way is to make
up his rough. tough mind about thing
and then to do what he wants by ar
gument, IL possible; and If impossible.
then by violence, law-breaking or
fraud.
Naturally Tisza was born to success.
But his first raid into high policy

That was in 1898. The opposition re-

break the opposition's back. Tisza's
repute as boss obstruction fighter. and
