to Cross Ocean Impatient
for the Start

i Hammondsport, N. Y, July s.
Lieutenant Porte, pilot of the trans
Atlantic flying boat America, declined
pair of life preservers proffered by
Lieutenant Samuel Preston. who
makes them for the navy aviators at
Pensacola.
"If the America is wrecked said
Porte, they'll never find two bodies
floating on the ocean,
Porte seems to be satisfied that the
start will be made within few days.
He arrived here today accompanied
by Rodman Wanamaker's brother-in-
law, Frederick c. Ruger, and by Cap
tain G. Reagh Osborne Of the British
admiralty. Captain Osborne spent
some time in motor boat adjusting
the compass Porte Is to use on the
transatlantic flight and setting it in
place in the bow Of the big boat.
|. Glen Curtiss had the America out
twice yesterday to observe the effect of
the hydroplane he Is htting to the bot
tom Of the boat. He and Porte are
agreed that they can get away with the
necessary load by resorting to auxili-
ary pontoons, and Mr.. Curtiss wishes
to work the problem out in a scienti-
fic manner. He will devote several
days more IL necessary to getting the
plans just right. Porte, however. is
impatient to get started and IL the
hydroplanes do not work out proper
ly very soon. It is probable the pom

NO ENDORSEMENT
Of CANDIDATES
BY THE LEAGUE
The Progressive Republican
League Adjourns Without
Taking Formal Action

Bismarck, N. D., July S.-The ex-
ecutive committee Of the Progressive
Republican league held an all-day
session at the Grand Pacific hotel to
wind up the affairs OF the campaign
just closed.
The exchequer had been depleted
and an attempt was made to secure
the necessary funds to settle all out
standing accounts and leave the slate
clean. The subscriptions were Sc
cured and the league adjourned after
a very argumentative session.
The main question before the men,
bers was regarding the endorsing of
the republican ticket, and Alex Mac
donald remarked that in order to
maintain the organization it was
necessary, as republicans, to endorse
the entire ticket. This seemed to be
the concensus of all present.
No action, however. was. taken
along that line. The presumption is
that all will support the entire ticket
as nominated at the primaries. :
eorsed no one and we. will proba ably
not do SO, but it Is likely that each
one will support the ticket this fall"
Amcng the pEnntir1ent men present
at the meeting Were James A. Buch-

Interest in Mutiny.
Mutiny, which has broken out
among the Mexican federals near the
American outposts near Vera Cruz,
was the subject Of keen interest in
American official quarters. Several
messages on the subject were re-
ceived from General Funston, who
reported fighting between the fed
erals and mutineers.
The Mexican federal commander
previously warned Funston that the
mutineers threatened to. attack the
American lines. and with this infor-
nation, Funston ordered the forces
to be on the defensive. but not to
consider such irresponsible movement
as an attack. y
An element Of humor was injected
into the situation when a5rcpresenta-
tive Of the revolutionary junta at
Vera Cruz asked Funston's permits
sion for himself and others to 70 out
and direct the mutiny. Reporting his
refusal to this request. the general
said that no incidents were reported

M'REYNOLDS IS
STILL HOPEFUL
Of EARLY PEACE
Expected That New Haven
Will Reach Agreement
With Legislature

Washington, July 8-Although the
department Of justice is preparing to
go ahead and file its long-planned
antitrust suit for the dissolution Of
the New Haven railroad system, At
torney General McReynolds is still
hopeful Of settlement without a
prolonged fight in the courts. >"
AS announced some time ago, Presi-
dent Wilson and Attorney General
McReynolds agreed that the suit
should be filed this month unless the
Massachusetts, legislature and execu-
tive committee of the railroad agreed
on certain legislation necessary for
disposing of some of the stocks which
the government contends are being
held in violation OF the law I.
ESsaIhe attorney general has agreed to
withhold the suit until July Is. It
now seems likely that disagreement
may prevent the necessary action be-
fore the present legislature goes out
of existence. The administration Of
fcials pin their faith of settlement
without a long fight on the fact that
the new legislature comes into exist
ence January 1.

of suspicion merely because he has
been connected with great business
enterprises.

Honolulu, T. FL, July S.-The army
transport Sherman, enroute from Ma
nila to San Francisco with LOO per-
sons aboard, was kept from sailing
from here by the appeal Of $50 dis
charged soldiers who were anxious to
reach their homes in the states and
expected to board the Sherman. When
the Sherman arrived 1t was found
that she had room for only thirty
more passengers under the regulations
for safety at sea.
Realizing that they would have to
wait a month longer, if the Sherman
sailed without them, the soldiers made
a vigorous appeal to army officials
and a request was cabled to the war
department in Washington for per-
mission to allow the Sherman to carry
220 passengers in excess of regula-
tions. The transport will wait until
late today for the reply from Wash
