SaysCaproni
Armies and Navies Will Be
Useles. Before Air Fleets,
Inventor Predicts

PARIS, July 29.-"Airplanes, carry
ing hundred men and equipped with
engines equal in power t. those in
medium sized steamship, will be de-
veloped within three years." said Clan
nj Caprori, inventor of the Caproni
bombing planes, to-day.
"The bombing planes now in USE"
Signor Caproni continued will be
mere dwarfs compared with those to
be developed. There is a surprise in
store for the Germans. Instead of the
forty and fifty machines necessary to
start on a bombing expedition it will
be possible to do the same work with
a new machine as powerful as the
whole squadron.
Transatlantic Flights Feasible
"The new machines will be much
more efficacious and will prove great
saving in operation. A trip across the
Atlantic could be accomplished with
the present-day machines during Ju.y,
August and September, and probably
October. The weather situation would
be unfavorable during the other
months Of the year. Heavy fogs make
aerial navigation impossible. Aviators
are unable to guide themselves in a
fog. A trip across the ocean at this
time would have to be made by way
of New York, the Azores and Portugal
"The development of an aerial code,
similar to the maritime code, will be
necessary before there can be general
aerial navigation. There must be in
ternational signals like those at sea,
aerial laws and a whole volume Of
regulations for aerial transportation.
"The quick development of larger
machines is inevitable. At the begin
ming of the war the largest bombing
machine was of 100 horsepower. Now
the largest bomber is of 1000 horse
power.
Liberty Motor Satisfactory
1.-THE Liberty motor will do. We
want them now in large quantities. |
have seen them work and they are salts
factory for bombing machines. Finer
engines, with many intricate and spe
cialzed parts, like a watch, cannot be
made in quantities, but the Liberty
motor can, which is a big advantage.
War of the future lies in the air,
for when the big commercial planes
are developed they can easily be turned
into fighting machines, with powerful
offensive propensities. England was
able to defend herself with large
navy, but it will be necessary in the
future for nations to have large aerial
forces.
"Battleships will be no match for
the new aerial machines. which will
revolutionize warfare both on land and
sea. The activities of the fighting
forces will be transferred to the air.
Armies ana navles will be unable to
battle with the immense bombing ma
chimes of the future.
"The world will look to America for
great developments in aviation because
she has unlimited resources. while
European countries are impoverished
by long years of despoliation and de-
struction. America will manufacture
large commercial machines They will
be speedy and able to carry 100 tons
instead Of l 900 pounds as now"
Signor Caproni is in Paris on Italian
government business. He expects to
visit America probably after the war.
His whole time is now devoted to war
purposes. He is not developing COM
mercial machines.

400 Unburied Bodies

Vincelles has been in the enemy's
hands since the advance to the Marine
in the first days of June. From this
hilltop position they were able to
cut the railway with short range
mortars and then Systematically re-
duce Dormans to wreckage. Vim
celles is the last village in the prox-
unity of the famous river to have
been abandoned by the Germans. 1t
was between here and the village of
Passy, three miles to the westward,
that the Marne was crossed in
greatest force early in the morning
Of the 18th, beginning the enemy's
invasion south of the river
In Vincelles to-day myself and
two companions, the first civilians
to enter the village since the Ger
man occupation, saw terrible evi-
dences Of the folly of the German
General Staff, who ordered the SOL
diers to hold the Marne line long
after it became untenable by AL
lied fire. Four hundred unburied
bodies of one of the Kaiser's crack
chasseur regiments Uttered the
streets, the houses and the cellars,
telling a mute and horrible story.

Only Remnants Escape

1t was only the remnants that
escaped to join the general retreat
yesterday morning. French soldiers
entered on the heels of the fleeing
chasseurs, and, as we stood there
to-day, French batteries were thun-
dering out their messages a few
hundred yards north of the village.
We could hear volleys of battery
fire, interspersed with the crackle of
machine guns Of the German rear
guard as it retreated.
At the corner was a wagon on
which was placed an enormous pom
toon boat, one of hundreds which
the enemy brought up for crossing
the Marine. The dead horses were
still attached to the wagon. There
were many other dead horses in the
streets.
A German mortar. which evident
ly had been struck by French
shell, remained in a small courtwav
surrounded by battered stone
houses. Several of its slain crew
were still there.
AS we prepared to leave Vincelles

The large newspapers of the Twin

amounted to $70,312.27. ~
Receipts Less Than Disbursements
The amount received for school pur-
poses from the different sources amounted
to $199,45184, or $14,952.87 less than
the disbursements. The amount re-
ceived from the state apportionment
for last year was $25,795.29. Of this
amount New Ulm received $5,632.20.
The amount received from annual
state aid amounted to $50, 734.49 in the
county and New Ulm's share of this was

Eighty-Seven Schools in County
The report shows that there are 81
schools in the county, rs of which have
frame buildings, and the other II, brick,
two of them being rural schools. Of
the 81 schools IT are rural schools.
The report also shows that the average
length of school in the high and graded
districts during the past year was nine

schools seven and six-seyenths. The
length of school for next year has been
placed at practically the same as last

There is no school district in the county
in which there are less than ten students
enrolled and there are only sixteen in
which there were less than twenty.

STORY OF TORNADO,
TOLD BY WITNESS
PEOPLE o. LITTLE VILLAGE
DAZED AND BEWILDERED
BY TRAGEDY
NEW ULM SENDS PROMPT AND
MATERIAL AID TO THE
SUFFERERS

Death and destruction, swift and ter
rible, descended from the flying clouds
last Wednesday evening upon the little
village of Tyler, some ninety miles
from New Ulm, tearing down the work
of years, blasting the hopes OF many
who had toiled long and hard to build
up their homes and places of business,
and snuffing out the lives of nearly two
score of men, women and children, who
half a minute before the stroke of fate
fell, we're going quietly about their
homes with never thought of danger
to come Never did tragedy come
more suddenly into the lives OF any
community, never was so little warning
given, never less chance of escape.
1t was literally a bolt from the sky
that fell with such terrible effect as to
daze and stupefy a whole community,
leaving nearly all paralyzed by it's sudden
swooping terror which came and went
in breath.
Deferred Trip Fortunate
The first details of the tragedy reached
New Ulm in a letter written by August
Stork of this city who was in Tyler at
the time it happened. He had gone
there for a few days stay while his brother
Will should make trip to Chicago in
company with doctor of Tyler. For
some reason the Chicago trip was post
poned from Wednesday and provid-
entially the doctor was, still in Tyler to
assist in caring for the injured victims
Of the tornado.
Story of Witness
The story of the storm is best told IN
the words of one who went thru it all
and yet emerged unhurt and in state
of mind not so disturbed as that of those
who suffered death or injury or property
loss. Such an account is that given by
Mrs. VIM. P. Stork and the following
is the story as she gave it to New Ulm
relatives.
Fright after six it became cloudy,

some shopping to do I hurried up town
and got what 1 needed in groceries.
Will had to go over to the building to
attend to some matters. The sky was
looking more threatening every minute,
and when I got home Will had not
returned. About 8 o'clock there was a
rift in the clouds, it looking as if it was
going to clear up, but soon after it got
cloudy again and dark, laundering,
lightning and starting to rain. The
rain came down pretty heavy, and was
mixed with little hail.

When we got to the cellar door the
