FRENCH A|RMEN 'STARTLE CROWD
 ON J. s. FIELD

FORT WORTH, rex.-An air plane running wild in 'nid-air and cutting all the daring capcrs that such machine is capable of pei forming, while two skilled French aviators sat calmly in their seats each believing the other was direct ing the flight, recently amazed American aviation officers and cadets here who watched its start ling gyrations.
 Eventually. after hair-raising loops, dives and side-slips in which the airplane almost grazed tlIe earth, it dove nose-first into the ground, driving the engine back through the fusilage up to where one of the aviators sat, but injuring neither of them.
 | The two French aviators who so narrowly escaped death were Le Maitre and Soulier, who have brought down several German airplanes in the fighting on the Western front in France.
 1 Le Maitre was in the back seat and took the plane from the ground. The machine had climbed a few hun- dred feet when Soulier raised his hands to his head, the usual signal of pilot that he will take control of the plane. So Le. Maitre sat at ease.
 Then for eight minutes the air plane gave performance the like of which never before had been seen by the spectators. It comprised the whole known category of stunts and added new ones with amazing audiences. Those below gasped in wonderment when the machine sud denly dived within a few feet of the ground. It seemed impossible that any one would handle the ma chine with such dexterity and reck- less abandon.
 The spectators, however, saw Le Maitre and Soulier smiling calmly.
 Suddenly the plane crashed down. ward and buried it's nose in the earth. The aviators stepped calmly from under the demolished plane and faced each other.
 "What do you think you are do- ing, anyway; trying to scare me, eh?" said Le Maitre. ::
 What was l trying to do?" echoed Soulier. What were you trying to do to mel"
 l Then it developed that during the eight minutes they had been in the air neither aviator had touched the controls. Soulier had been merely adjusting his helmet when Le Maitre saw the movement and mistook it for the signal that Soulier intended to take control of the airplane. While the machine was running wild, each aviator thought the other was trying to have a little fun at his expense. T was determined not to exhibit any feeling," said Le Maitre when the situation was explained. "Il , thought Soulier was trying some stunts to test my nerve" T thought the same thing" said Soulier

THIRD SHOOTING
IN THE SERIES
AMONG ITALIANS
Albert Di Nicola Near Death
at Hospital Following At
fray in Stratford.

On top of series of murders and
attempted murders among Italian
residents of Bridgeport and vicinity
comes the probably fatal wounding
last night of Albert Di Nicola, of SO
Hallet street, who with three .32 cali
bre bullets in his body lies at the
point of death at the Bridgeport hos
pital.
The shooting occurred in Stavola' s
saloon in Stratford, and is supposed
to have been the result of an argu-
ment over pool game Patsy and
Joseph Santone, who live at Honey
spot road, near Avon park, are said
to be the men guilty of the near
assassination, but they made good
their escape and up to a late hour
this afternoon were still at large.
According to the Stratford police
the Santone brothers and Di Nicola
had a heated argument in the tenn
perance saloon and pool parlor, con-
tinuing it-on the outside. They cross
ed the street where the argument be-
came more heated. Then one of the
men is supposed to have picked up a
stone and thrown it at Di Nicola The
latter ran in the direction of the rear
of Stavola's saloon seeking safety and
as he rounded the corner one of the
others opened fire and he dropped.
After the shooting both men ran
in the direction of the woods be-
tween Bridgeport and Stratford, but
though Chief of Police Nichols and a
large force of men made thorough
search of the woods not single
trace of the gunmen could be found
This shooting among the Italians
| following closely upon the neal
shooting of Giuseppe Spattafola an6
the murder of Frank Russo a few
nights ago, has stirred the police mo-
alone of Bridgeport, but of all the
outlying towns to the greatest &C
| tivity.
In the opinion of the officials the
feuds which have sprung up so sud
denly among the various Italian anC
Sicilian factions are the result of {
new gambling element quarrellint
over the division of the spoils.

The one point where the objective
was not reached was on the right OF
the attack, in the Balleau wood. The
fiercest fighting is continuing here.
American marines last night reached
the outskirts of Bouresches, northwesr

CORONER BEGINS
. HEARING TODAY
IN BUCKLEY CASE
Green Motorman Was at
Helm of Car When She
Was Knocked Down.
ON WAY HOME FROM
CHURCH MISSION
Bystanders Testify That
Mrs. Buckley Was Pro
ceeding Slowly.

Coroner John J. Phelan held an
imminent death inquiry at the county
court house this morning on the case
of Mrs. Bridget Buckley, who was
struck by a trolley car late Wednes-
day evening and who now lies un.
conscious at the Bridgeport hos
pital. Both legs were brokn and her
skull fractured. At no time since
she was taken to the hospital has
she been conscious. The testimony
of a number of witnesses was taken
this morning.
According to the facts brought out
at the hearing Mrs. Buckley had
been to a mission at the church of
the Blessed Sacrament and during
the course of the service had tainted
and it was necessary to carry her
from the church. At the time she
was struck she was evidently on her
way to the corner grocery in the vi
cinity of her home to get some milk
| as she had a small container with
| her for this purpose.
Peter Farno, who was running the
| trolley car that struck Mrs. Buckley,
was the motorman, and Ralph Robin
! son was the conductor. FaTno was q
! student just qualifying for the posi-
ton of motorman, and while he held
| the controller Charles Doyle, a fully
| qualified man, was on the front plat
| form with him.
| Bystanders testified that Mrs
Buckley was proceeding very slowly
across the tracks, evidently being
very feeble. When she got almost
across she stopped and the crew OF
/ the car thinking she had stopped tC
give them the right of way, weni
! ahead. She started again almost the
| same instant with the car and was
struck The hearing was continued
| this afternoon
