New Water Plans and
Propellers Will Be
Given Test on America
By associated Press

Hammondsport, N. Y, June 81
The Rodman Wanamaker trans -Atlan.
tic airboat is being equipped with new
water planes, which, in the opinion of
her builders, will make the hull plane
as great load on the water as the
wings can carry through the air.
A new propeller is also to be tried
on the America. The blade is the
invention of a Buffalo man, who claims
more efficiency for his propeller than
can be obtained from any now in use.
The blade will be tested on other ma
chimes and the two propellers designed
for use on the America will be at
tached on their arrival from Buffalo,
probably on Monday.
If the new blades give fifty pounds
more thrust than the propellers now
on the America, as their maker as
serts will be the case, they will be
used on the transatlantic flight. They
are made entirely of metal and weigh
tEirty-two pounds each.
Work is being rushed on the alter
ations and another trial flight is
planned for to-day, when tests will be
made to determine if the America can
carry enough fuel for a trans Atlantic
flight.

Moran said:
1T will be tough fight while it
lasts but l do not think it will last
long. l cannot figure that it is going
to last twenty rounds. | am in the
best condition of my career and ma
turally do not expect to be the loser. y
Expects to Be Battered
The Pittsburgh fighter added that
whether he won or lost he expected
to be battered.
Much interest is displayed in Mo-
rams style in the ring which is not so
well known as that of Johnson. The
white fighter said his plan would be
cautious effort to win and he did
not expect to effect a knockout by a
chance swing. He declared he believ-
ed the longer he could draw out the
fight the better his chance would be
for getting in decisive blows.
Moran asserted that he felt the re-
sponsibility rested on him of repre-
senting the white race. His four sis
ters in Pittsburgh to-day sent him an
encouraging message while an uncle
who is dying in Ireland wrote him a
farewell letter in which he said he
had prayed for his victory.
The crowd at the arena tonight
will be in full dress, as Parisians re-
gard the match in the same way as
they would an important night at the
opera. The reservations made to-day
included great many for women.
Appeal Issued
The French Management to-day is
sued a public appeal to spectators of
the fight not to allow their enthusiasm
to go beyond proper limits and made
an especial request that no attempt
be made to give advice to the referee,
no matter what might be thought of
his decisions
1t was said this morning that Mo-
ran would enter the ring weighing
just under 1876 pounds while Johnson
would weight 210. The articles con-
tanned no stipulations as to the weight
of the contestants.
Johnson slept eleven hours last
night. After being massaged this
morning he ate four soft boiled eggs
stirred up in a bowl of bread and
finished his neal with dish of iced
strawberries. For lunch he had a
plain pound cake. He lives usually on
a virtually vegetarian diet.
His bill of fare for dinner con-
sisted of roast chicken and fresh
vegetables, which he planned to eat
at or a little over five hours before
entering the ring. He said he ex-
pected to pass the greater part of the
day leisurely. About noon he drove
from Asnieres into Paris to meet his
wife.
Moran slept soundly for ten hours
In his training quarters. His break
fast was two boiled eggs and rolls, af-
ter which he took leisurely morning
walk. He was in high spirits espe-
cially when he found in to-day's mail

argument to councils next Tuesday
was arranged for last night; and COM
mittees also were appointed to con-
suit with other residents of the sec
tion. 1t is aid that all but a very few
of the persons living in that neighbor-
hood, one of the best in the city, will
join in the protest. Nearly all of the
objectors will make a personal visit
to council.
1t is put forward by the residents
that the city will sooner or later have
to open the street and that it can now
do so at far less expense than by wait
ing. One of the residents last night
said that twenty years ago an ordi-
nance had passed council for the
opening of the street, but that tele-
gram to the then mayor from the
holder of a mortgage on the prop
erty had caused him to veto 1t.
Other statements attacking the silk
mill owners-not, it was explained, as
inimical to them either personally or
as opposed to their business projects
were TO the effect that the mill was
paying its labor here less than in Pat
terson, N. j., and for that reason its
threat Of moving was regarded as a
bluff.

Atlantic Fleet Will
Not Remain in Pacific
BY Associated Press

Washington, D. c., June 27.-Secre-
tary Daniels in a statement early to-
day announced that the ships Of the
Atlantic battleship fleet which will
lead the international naval parade
out of Hampton Roads for the open
ing of the Panama canal next month
would return from the Pacific coast to
Atlantic waters after participating in
the Panama-Pacific Exposition cere-
monies. The statement was issued be-
cause the Secretary said reference by
him yesterday to the Navy Depart
ment's plans regarding the forthcom-
ing exposition had been misconstrued
as an announcement that the fleet
would be sent to the Pacific coast and
there remain for a long time.

Nothing could be in sharper con-
trast than the manner in which the
leaders of the Republican and Demo-
cratic congressional campaigns are ap-
preaching their work. The Democrats
instead of paying any attention to
Chairman Morris appeals to line up
and increase the Democratic repre-
sentation are scurrying to build up
fences in order to keep what they

pressing any great hope of being able
to do that.
Over in the district now represented
by Palmer 1t is an open secret that the
Democratic split may lead to a Re-
publican congressman, as it did some
eighteen years ago. Palmer saw the

tieth and Twenty y-second districts there
is no longer any doubt that the Repub-

The Philadelphia Inquirer says to-
day in dispatch from Washington:
Representative Charles E. Patton,
of Curwensville, Pennsylvania mem
Der of the national Republican con-
gressional committee, in a statement
to-night, predicts that the Republicans
will elect thirty of the thirty-six mem
bers of the Pennsylvania delegation in
the next House. He not only claims
the seats now. occupied by Progress
sives, but at least five of the districts
now represented by Democrats.
These are the Nineteenth, the
Twenty-second. the Sixth, the Eighth.
Seventeenth and Twenty third. Mr..
Patton also claims that the Twenty
sixth district, now represented by A.
Mitchell Palmer, Democratic senatorial
candidate, may be swung into line for
the Republicans. He believes that the
fight within the Democratic party be-
tween the Mutchler and Palmer fac
tions may so divide the party that
this erstwhile Democratic stronghold
may be redeemed
The Ledger says: THE Republican
candidates for Congress will meet early
next month, either in Harrisburg or
Philadelphia, to prepare for the most
thorough congressional campaign
Pennsylvania has had in years. The
candidates probably will name a COM
mittee to write a platform, which
either will be issued by them as a
separate declaration of principles or
be embodied in the State platform
Up in Schuylkill folks are saying
that the Progressives propose indors-
ing the Republican nominee for Con-
gress, Robert D. Heaton, of Ashland,
an exceptionally strong candidate. If
this is done it will give the Demo-
Gratis a lively contest. The present
congressman, Robert e. Lee, Of Potts
vile, is a candidate for reelection. If
there is a consolidation of the Repub-
licans and Progressives on Heaton it
will prove the greatest political coup
in Schuylkill county for years.

hilist who fails to keep within the
speed limit or who violates the law
in any other way. Motorcyclsts and
bicyclists, who fail to sound their horn
or bells, or, who fail to have lights,
will also be hailed before the burgess.
II intend to make an example of
the first offenders who are brought
before me- said the burgess this
morning. This recklessness must
stop.

tional men that ask for to give the
taxpayers protection then | shall use
what patrolmen l have in policing

Conservatism in Banking

guarding Of that money is its paramount
consideration always.

receipts therefor. 1t paws out that money
In stated sums on the depositor' signed
orders---checks. 1t renders to the de-
positor as often as requested an ac-
counting Of Its work for him. 1t en-
ploys clerks to do this work. And for
this service it receives no compensation.
q But bank must make money to
exist. So it sets to wors, portion Of
the money that is entrusted to its keep
Ing.
q This employment of such money
may take the form of loans on CONNER
cial paper, first mortgages, or other Sc
curities For Its use the bank charges
the user and divides Its receipts from
such sources with the depositols in
interest bearing accounts, terming such
payments Interest.
q In setting to work the money with
which it is entrusted, safely first is
the banks all important consideration.
1t is obliged to return to the depositor

1t must, therefore, make certain that
there will be returned to it, just what

"arbitrary'' by those failing to secure
from the bank the financial assistance
sought. Yet these same people seem

q Conservatism in banking leads to
soundness. And it is the sound insti-

their ability to minister its affairs in a
manner that insures protection to its
deposltors.
