The provisions for educational quail
fications for suffrage and the require

government Of Chile an oligarchy. 1t
practically confines the administration
to the richer classes, and the great
families control tho country. This Is
SO. not only In Chile, but in all of the
Latin American republics. 1t has al
ways been so In Mexico and the sup
position that the Mexlcans can have
free and fair elections under the pres
ent conditions is absurd to any one
who knows Latin-America. The gov
crnment of these countries has always
been In tho hands OF the few. and 1t is
only by education and Sradual aplift
that tho masses can be fitted to take

OCEAN FLIGHT OF
 AMERICA POSTPONED
Transatlantic Trip Nay Finally
 Be Cancelled.

Hammondsport. July 2s.-The start for the transatlantic flight of the America was postponed until October yesterday after conference of Lieut.. Porte, Glenn H. Curtiss and William B. Cash, representative of Rodman Wanamaker.
 The high rate of gasoline con- sumption of the Americas engine on its 44-mile flight Sunday night put an end to the hope of sailing from New York on August 1 and starting for the Azores by August 15. 1t is prob lematical now whether the transat- lantic flight can ever be attempted in the America.
 Will Receive Overhauling.
 The America will be taken to the Curtiss workshop for a complete overhauling, in which MT. Curtiss ex- poets to get rid of 100 pounds or more of unnecessary weight. It has not been decided whether the third engine will be left on the America. Mir. Curtiss let it be understood that the third engine might be taken off.
 With two engines Lieut.. Porte originally believed 200 gallons of gasoline would be enough to take the America to the Azores, and before the trial Sunday night he believed 300 gallons would easily carry the Amer ica with its three engines for the first lap of the flight The trip of A miles to Penn Tan and back Sunday night showed these calculations were
 
 gasoline at a rate of slightly more than one gallon to four miles, On this basis 400 gallons, weighing about 2,450 pounds, would be the smallest load which would carry the airboat 1,200 miles to the Azores ana allow a reasonable margin for drift and difficulty in finding the islands This would bring the total load Of the America up to about a,ooo pounds, considerable more than it had been able to lift with its three engines. r.
 In Continuous Operation.
 If the three engines are used, all three will be kept in continuous op- eration. It was originally intended to use the third engine in lifting the America from the water and then to shut it off. but is was found that the propeller of the third engine caused a great deal of head resistance when it lay idle. After more than a month of experimenting it looked today as if the conclusion had been pretty nearly reached that the America in its pres ent shape is a failure, and that about the only hope left Is to convert it into a land machine, as which 1t might be with a greater load of gas- olins than 1t could lift from the wa ter.
 Lieut.. Porte may be forced to adopt the plan of leaving Newfoundland with an insufficient load of gasoline and seeking to replenish his load from fuel ship in midocean. After the decision to postpone the flight had been made, Lieut.. Porte made this statement:

FOUR FOREIGNERS FINED IN COURT
Answer Charges of Breach of the Peace and Drunkcnness.-Ex-S lectnan Nelson Taylor Visitor in Town.-Allins Buys Woodland.

At a meeting of the farmers of this vicinity held at the Hotel Beloin in New Britain last evening for the purpose of making preliminary arr engagements for the forming of a mar lSet gardeners association and secur- ing a public wholesale market in New Britain, a committee of five, con ssting of John T. Molumphy of Ber- lin as the chaiMnan. I. J. Newton of West Hartford, William Whitman of Berlin, Thomas Dillon of West Rocky Hill and George Reed of Berlin, was appointed to obtain general inform ation in regard to similar organiza- 'tions in other cities and make re- port at another meeting to be held some time in the near future.
 Owing probably to the present busy season with the farmers. the attend ance at the meeting was necessarily small, only seven persons being pres ept out of about fifty invited. They were Mayor George. A. Quigley. represent ing the city of New Britain; and John. T. Molumphy. William Whitman William Fl. Schroeder. Jason M. Tay Tor. George Reed and William Lois- elle, all of Berlin
 :. The meeting was called to order by . Mir. Molumphy, who is taking an ac- tive part in the movement for the organization of public market in the Hardware City. He began by outlining the purpose of the meeting, after which he read a letter he had received from Senator George M. Landers of New Britain in regard to a request made of him.
 Must Sell to Consumers. 7>- As was stated briefly in last nights Herald, Mir. Landers, explained in his Communication to Mir. Molumphy. his willingness to offer the use of as much of the plot of nd knovn as the Landers Playground, corner Clark :. and Winter streets, New Britain. as ! may be necessary for the farmers to go ahead with their idea, providinY that. either individually or collective ly, they will sell directly to the con- surner. The senator stated, however. that if the proposed association planned to sell to dealers and not to the consumer. he should not feel warranted in offering the land for such a purpose.
 MT. Landers told in his letter, also. of correspondence with Harry A.. Thompson of Philadelphia. editor of the Country Geptleman," who has informed him that MT. Thompson president of the Providence Market aGarceners' association.. was the best Informed man on tho subject under 4consideration, of any one In the coun- try,
 x n conclusion, the senator stated
New Britain herald., 1914-07-28

cannot get the machine away for flight in August with conscientious re- gard for all the factors essential to success The last thing MT. wana- maker said to me was, Don't leave until you are certain that everything possible has been done to insure the success of the flight It is certainly due to MT. wanamaker and his good sportsmanship to postpone our flight until october 1. By doing so we shall have greatly increased the chances of winning because by rebuilding the bottom of the hull the results of u months experiments can be embodied in the reconstruction. I wish to state most emphatically there is no idea whatsoever of abandoning the flight this year."
 Curtiss Is Pleased.
 Glenn H. Curtiss gave out the fol-. lowing statement:
 II am glad that Lieutenant Porte and MT. Wanamaker have agreed, to change the date of the trans-Atlantic flight to october 1. In my opinion the weather conditions will be even better and there Is nothing to lose and everything to gain. Had we per- sisted in shipping the machine Au- gust 1, as originally planned. we would have been obliged to use the same hull which has already under gone so many changes and experi- ments that it has been greatly weak ened and would have required the addition of considerable extra weight to make it safe in a rough sea. We much prefer to rebuild the bottom of the boat and add the planfins at the same time. We have been able to get up with the necessary load. Sunday nights flight indicates that 1t will be much more economical in regard to fuel consumption to run the third engine throttled than to carry one dead We shall make some further tests with fuel consumption after the boat has been complete. Sundays tests were of no value except in a. comparative way, because of the un- finished condition of the hull and other parts of the machine which gave us a great amount of extra weight and head resistance. The chances in favor of Lieutenant Porte's successful crossing of the Atlantic are greatly increased by the change'in the sailing date."

necessity of suffering either from mai
de mer or an import duty. If nothing
else has been accomplished it will
be possible after the present exhibit
for American designers to sew their
own labels on their frocks and sell
them on their merits Heretofore it
took an imported label to command
desirable price on any American
made garment, no matter what its
artistic worth. According to the
Fifth avenue designers they have no
desire to get beyond the bounds of
the Monroe doctrine, and the most
they hope to accomplish for the i'm
mediate present is to be able to make
their sales talk plain English and
without the necessity of using
French accent.
New York's social register has been
depleted by the list of patronesses for
the fashion fete, and the turnout at
the Ritz last night with it's accom-
paniment of jewels and finery seemed
to bear out President Wilson's ideas
relative to the psychological hard
times.
Gowns valued at $4,000 in good

100000 worth of jewelry designed

exhibited. In CONSCIENCE there were
probably more fne-looking young
men in the crowd than have been
seen at New York society gather
ing in any moons, the added touch
being given by a flock of faultlessly
attired fy-cops detailed to guard the
loaned jewels. The bulls in the fash
ion shop were not meant to be dis
tinguished from the others of New
York's smart set, but class will tell
and the cops seemed to be the class.

BY Margaret Mason
New York, Nov. s. - Made-in-

maiden are being formally presented
today to some of our young multi
millionairesses, who until Wednes-
day night had never given a thought
to the possibility of a gown daring
to hail from any other place than
dear Paree, with the accent and ia
theirs thoughts on the dear. The
coming-out party for American fash
ions started last night at the Ritz,
and judging from some of the ex-
hibits in (and QUIT of the new even
ing gowns with the extreme south
ern exposure, coming out" is good,
although perhaps the past tense
should have been used.
One hundred and twenty-five
gowns with accomplishments calcu-
lated to put any ordinary father. or
husband in a bankruptcy court, and
each one guaranteed to have been
designed and executed right on the
Island of Manhattan, were exhibited,
the Manequins being volunteers from
the homes of some of New York's
and Newport's idlest rich. The entire
affair was given a RedWhite-and-
Blue George Cohanesque atmosphere
even to the point that no flowers
but American beauties were shown.
The intensity of the patriotism was
manifest when a Russian wolfhound,
used as a prop in one tableaux, was
given the gate and took it.
