The machine today carried 1ss
pounds of mail. 7.scs pieces. By far

flight out OF Washington. and for
this reason 1t was held over and not
dispatched by train.
Lieutenant Boyle lost his course
yesterday and landed at Waldorf, Nd.
southeast OF Washington, and twenty
five miles out His compass failed
him. 1t failed to steady and he bore
off from a northeastwrad to a south
eastward course. The compass was
affected by magnetism from the
motor. The lieutenant missed the
landmarks charted on the map, strap.
ped to his leg. and landed to inquire
as TO directions. His first landing
was a perfect one. though in q soft
field. He could not learn his direc-
tions, and rising. made q second
landing nearer the town.
Mud in the soft field hung the
wheels OF his plane, and It tipped up
on its nose, breaking the propeller.
and rolled over on its back. Cha

Waldorf is on a regular truck mall
route from Washington to southern
Maryland. The postmaster at Wal
dorf notified the postmaster here, and
a fast motor truck brought the mail
back into Washington.
Another machine carried several
mechanicians and a new propeller out
to Boyle.
The machine was fixed up, and the
lieutenant flew II back to Washington,
arriving at 7:45 and making a perfect
landing on the Polo field.

SARGENT SAID HE WAS ASLEEP
Conversation With Engineer That
Wrecked Circus Cars.

Hammond, Ind, June 26.-'T was
Gozing-I fell asleep"
Engineer Lon" Sargent made this
statement to Louis Johnson, conductor
of the troop empty which crashed
through the Hagenbeck-Wall circus
train Saturday, leaving a trail of hor-
ror, according to the latter's testimony
JohnsOn's testimony followed the ap-
pearance of Sargent before the coro-
ner's jury, where, on advice of COUNSEL
he stood upon his constitutional rights
and refused to answer questions.
AS Johnson told his story Sargent
broke down and sobbed. Asked if he
had seen Sargent after the wreck,
Johnson said:
Eyes; / saw him standing by the
debris, and he said This is horrible
mess and l agreed with him and said,
How in the hi did it happenY
"He replied, 4 was doing and fell
asleep"
did you make an investigation he
was asked.
"There was nothing to investigate
was his reply 81 know such an ac-
cident could not happen unless the en-
gineer was dead or asleep-and know
Sargent wasn't dead, and he himself
told me he was asleep"
Sargent, listening in a nearby room,
collapsed.
