B1Tss anu -wnrred Powell, English con- sul general to Philadelphia. Here is what Lieutenant Porte said:
 "A lot has been talked about this flight. People either say that it Is inn possible or very easy. It is neither If 1t is possible it can be accomplished only by paying strict attention to the most minute details. chance flight might be made with success, but the chances are 1O,O00,00O to 1 against such a possibility.
 The idea of this flight is to do 1t in the most methodical manner so that aviation will be advanced by the ex- perience gained. There were four great factors which had to be taken into consideration-the construction of the machine, the building of suitable motor, the meteorological conditions and navigation. Without a knowledge of the meteorological conditions such a flight would be impossible. As to the prospects, We who are going to take this flight believe that it can be done, otherwise we would not try it. None of us IS anxious to throw away his life, and do not believe that MT. Wana- maker would care to waste money on a cause which he considered hopeless or foolhardy. If we carry this out I think the praise should go to Mr. Wanamaker, who has devoted a great deal of time and money to the advance ment of aviation and who has made such an attempt possible"
 Captain Benson. commandant of the Philadelphia navy yard. also laid stress upon the necessity of a thorough knowledge of meteorological conditions and navigation if such a flight were to be successful.
 However, if such a thing can be done," he said, there Is no doubt that an American and an Englishman work ing together can do it.
 Captain Benson then spoke of the military possibilities of aviation and referred to the success with which aeroplanes have been used in the Mex ican trouble.
 If the flight proves successful" he continued, Tit will be a great factor in further stimulating the interest of sct- entists and inventors in aviation" Consul General Powell highly hon.. ored the English aviator by saying: 'I believe if pluck and knowledge can accomplish the flight Lieutenant Porte will succeed. I myself should like to accompany him. but conditions. of course, make this impossible" In speaking of the future of aviation MT. Powell said. that he thought the aeroplane would gradually take the place of large navies and eventually bring about universal peace.
 George s. Bliss. weather forecaster, explained the meteorological conditions to be encountered and said that the l best time for ocean flights are during tho maximum heat of summer. At
 this tirne." said MT. Bliss, the storm areas are smallest and would be more easily overridden or passed through" ARTHUR J. BRINTON.

dren pressed against the rail of the big liner getting their first glimpse of the statue of Liberty and the sky line of New York. The children, unaccompanied by parents or guard ians. were the pets of all those on board, partly because of their com parative loneliness and partly because all were bright and made up the mer- riest group on the ship.
 The children, who were in charge of the chief stewardess of the Olympic and who were bound for different parts of the United States, are Phyllis and Alice Dunbar, four and six years old. who were bound for Omaha, where they were to meet their foster parents, who recently adopted them abroad; Helen Trench, eight years old. who has been adopted by a couple in Oklahoma City: Kala winkler ten years, and her sister, Minnie thirteen, who have shown exceptional dramatic talent and who came to America to be edu- cated and later trained for the stage.
 It is not often that a ship full of pas sengers has five orphaned" children aboard, and as a result the 'kiddies" soon were the especial guests of every body on board and all vied for their society and planned for their enter tainment. The older ones took the keenest interest in the wireless on board ship, and 1t was hard to keep them away from the Marconi operator. Whenever the operator had a message to send or receive the little ones flock ed about his room and watched in open mouthed wonder while some of the older passengers explained the mys- teries of the new invention In his leisure moments the wireless operator told of the intricacies of the keys.
 "Oh, I think 1t must be dandy to be a wireless operator" exclaimed eight year-old Helen Trench. When I get big I am going to be an operator. I think it must be dandy to be able to save lives when ship is sinking
 No royal parsonage ever received the attention that came to the Dunbar children, the youngest of the quintet. They were petted and caressed and feasted by everybody on board-feast- ed until the ships doctor called halt. fearing that they would be victims of indigestion. And the youngsters en- joyed every minute of the time.
 But it was at the ships concerts and entertainments that the oldest of the children Kala Winkler and her sister, Minnie, shone. These children possess rare musical and dramatic talent, and they were given every opportunity to display it. The children are very graceful dancers, and they were con- stantly in demand as partners when the band on board ship struck up tango. a hesitation waltz or a naxixe.

4 New York, July 1S.-This market has been contending for weeks against most discouraging conditions, and with better success than might have been expected. The drastic re- port of the Interstate Commerce Commission regarding New Haven af aairs was fresh blow to confidence in the financial district. Coupled with the rumors that the comnis- sion will next undertake the examin- Rock Island, the impression was cre- ated that the commission is becoming a highly inquisitorial body With pro- nounced anti-railroad proclivities. ed to be of a judicial rather than prosecuting character. It's actions and policies of late, however, have created widespread distrust, and there is/ in consequence much concern about the forthcoming rate decision.
 2 The Interstate Commerce commits sion has done good service in expos ing some of the glaring evils in rail-
 
 come for reconstructive work and the display of a judicial attitude rath- CT than that of a persistent prose cutor. Missouri Pacific affairs have also occupied much attention and added to the general lack of confi- dence. Rumors as to the financial condition of some of the weaker roads further tended to depress the general market. The C1affin failure seems to have disappeared as a dis turbing effect, and the present out look is that other serious conSe- quences in that quarter will be avert ed.
 | Domestic Conditions Confused. decidedly confused. It can not be said that there is any decrease of trade at large; probably not more than five or ten per cent below last year. The situation, however, is de- cidedly spotty, and some industries. continue to show very marked shrinkage; notably in the iron trade :. The textile outlook is fairly satis- factory, and a considerably larger business transpired in the New York dry goods market as result of the flush of buyers to attend the C1affin sale. :. Advices from abroad are not en- tirely satisfactory. Evidences of over doing in the chief capital market of the world, London, are decidedly Suggestive. The capital applications at that point in the first half of the current year aggregated $750,000,- 900, against $6O0,O0O,O0O in the first half of 1913. The largest increase was in colonial loans and rails, goodly portion of which was absorbed Hy Canada. At Vienna and Berlin there is renewed uneasiness because

JUROR ILL; AAL1S
 WAKEFIELD TRIAL
John 1. fubbel, of Ansonla, Vc.
 ti[n Of Ptom9 nc Poisoning.

New Haven, Conn.,, July 1S.-An abrupt adjournment of the trial of Mrs. Bessie Wakefield for the murder of her husband, William o. Wake field, in June, 1913, was caused yes- terday afternoon by the sudden ill- ness of Juror John L. Hubbell of An sonia. While a witness was testify ing Hubbell, who is seventy-one years old, rose from his seat in the jury box and addressing the court directly, asked to be excused. Permission was granted him and accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Farrell he went to the jury's retiring room. Almost inn mediately the deputy sheriff returned and informed the court that Hubbell was i'll. Dr. M. M. Scarborough, med ical examiner for New Haven, who was in the court room, waiting to be called as a witness, attended the stricken juror and later informed the court that Hubbell was suffering from stomach illness induced by having eaten clam chowder for dinner. In view of this Judge Joel H. Reed, who is presiding, ordered adjournment of court until next Tuesday morning.
 Examine Five Witnesses.
 Five witnesses were examined dur ing the morning session, but from the time court reconvened after re- cess until the adjournment Mrs. Mary Gillette, wife of George Gillette of Bristol, who was one of the morning witnesses, occupied the witness stand, and part of the time was under cross examination by counsel for the defense. .oa-
 Mrs. Gillette in her direct examina- tion by the states attorney went over even more minutely than her hus- band, who was one, of the chief wit nesses yesterday, the tale, incidents preceding and immediately following the finding of the body of Wakefield. She testified to the quarrel-the "fght''-down stairs in the house oc- cupied by the Gillettes and the Wake fields and of the death threats" and the expressed wish of Mrs. Wakefield that her husband were dead.
 Meeting With Plew.
 She told of meeting between James Plew, who has been executed for the Wakefield murder, and Mrs. Wakefield on Sunday, June 23, 1913. She saw them embrace and kiss. Telling again of the quarrel which preceded the alleged "conspiracy' to slay Wakefield, Mrs. Gillette related in further detail what she had over- heard at the windows of her kitchen. Then in sequence was told the story 1 of the parting of the Wakefields. :,
 Two witnesses from Bristol testi- fled to the purchase by Mrs. Wake field of household furniture and a sewing machine on the instalment plan and of Mrs. Wakefield surren- dering the goods because, she said,

New Promotion Scheme May Be In-

 troduced at Next Session of Congress.
 Washington, July 18.-To cure al legged evils of the "plucking board plan of preventing stagnation in the navy, as revealed in the congressional investigation of the elimination from the active list of certain naval cap- tains, of unblemished records, an ef- fort probably will be made at the next session of congress to substitute for the present law a scheme of pro- motion comb thing the features of both seniority and selection.
 Secretary Daniels has already caused to be gathered from the vari- ous branches of the naval service mass of data and suggestions embody- ing the views of officers of every grade and condition. This is to be turned over to a special board of naval of ffcers While this board in dealing with the whole question of reorganiz- ing the personnel of the navy will have before it a number of. sugges- tions looking to proper flow of pro- motions without recourse to the "plucking,'' the dominant idea is that where an officer has not made an ex- ceptiOnally god record he will not be arbitrarily retired, but allowed to re- main in his grade. This would in- volve his being passed over by better equipped officers below him, which would amount to the adoption of pro- motion by selection.

The real orphan of the party was Helen Trench, eight years old. The others had their sisters, but relatively she was very much alone. The ships company seemed to realize this, and she was made much of. The other children also intuitively seemed to do all in their power to make things pleasant for her.
 When the big liner finally docked in Now York there were tears in many of the passengers eyes as they bade the

Objection From Defense.

During Mrs. Gillette's testimony States Attorney filling, for the pur- pose of refreshing her memory as to of Mrs. Wakefield, read from a tram script of the court record. Counsel for Mrs. Wakefield objected, claiming trial,'' but of a 'mistriaH' and that therefore it was not admissible.
 Judge Reed overruled the objection and granted counsel for the accused an exception. It was at this point that Juror Hubbell became ill and ad- journm ent was taken.
