First in History of World to
Cross Atlantic Under It's
Own Power.
BUT FEW DETAILS GIVEN
The 500 Miles from POnta Del
gada to Lisbon Made in Nine
Hours and Forty-three Min
uteS.

Washington. May 29.-Blazing
the way of the first air trail from the
western to the eastern hemisphere,
the United States navy seaplane
NC-4, under Lieut.. Commander AL
bert Cushing Read, swept into the
harbor at Lisbon. Portugal Tuesday.
the first airship OF any kind to have
crossed the Atlantic ocean under it's
own power and through it's natural
element
Taking the air at Ponta Delgada,
Azores, at CHS a. m, Washington
time, on the last leg Of the trans
oceanic portion Of the voyage from
Rockaway Beach, Long Island. to
Plymouth, England, the NC-4 cover
ed the 500 miles in nine hours and
speed of better than so knots an
hour. The total elapsed flying time
from Newfoundland to Lisbon was
&c hours and Al minutes
At the first opportunity the big
plane will continue to Plymouth
775 nautical miles to the north. The
great object of all the effort Law
ished on the undertaking, naviga-
tion of seaplane across the At
lantic through the air, has been ac-
complshed. Twentieth century
transportation has reached a new
pinnacle and the United States navy
has led the way
Navy officials emphasized that the
long delay at the Azores was due to
the weather and to no weakness of
the machine or it's daring crew, nor
to any failure OF the carefully laid
plans of the department to guide the
fiiers to destination. The IA de-
stroyers strung from Ponta Delgada
to Lisbon reported with machine
like precision as the flight progress
ed The plane was never off its
course, and there was no moment
when officials in Washi..gton did not
know within few miles where it
was in the air.
To maintain adequate communica-
tion for this stage of the Journey,
the destroyers stuck to their posts
after the flying boat had passed, re-
laying back to Ponta Delgada, re-
ports from ships farther eastward.
The chain was not broken until after
the plane was safely moored for the
night near the cruiser Rochester at
Lisbon
For the next few hundred miles Of
his epoch making journey Com
mander Read and his crew will be
within sight OF the Portuguese or
Spanish coasts in the sweep north
ward. SkirtinG the coasts OF Cape
Finisterre, they will head out across
the bay OF Biscay to sight Brest, the
most westerly point of France
Thence direct to Plymouth. The
destroyers that will guide them
across the bay were ready in posi-
tion provided with the flares and
bombs that have made the trip safe
thus far except for the fog that
forced the other two machines OF the
seaplane division. the NC-1 and
NC-3, out OF the fiigh. after they
had safely negotiated virtually the
entire distance from Newfoundland
to the Azores

Corn and Provisions.

Chicago, May 21.-Highest prices yet this season were touched in the corn market today for supplies avail able before the end of May. Continued adverse weather and the scantiness of the crop movement gave force to the upward swing of the market. The close, nevertheless was unsettled 1-8c to 3-4c net higher, with July 1.65 1-8 to 1.65 1-4 and September 1.58 1-2 to 1.5S Is. Oats finished 3-8 to 1 3-4c down and provisions varying from 6Oc decline to a rise of 13c.
 Corn showed decided strength dur ing the greater part of the day, but reacted sharply in the last hour. Ow- ing to the fact that the prevailing un- seasonable low temperatures were bad for corn already planted and that further excessive moisture indicated an additional shrinkage of receipts the bulls met with but little resist anee in lifting oats
 In provisions, the influence of the corn bulge was partly offset by late reports of sterling exchange. demor- alization and by gossip about at tempts to cancel important trans-At- lantic orders for meats and for lard substitutes

New York Sugar.

New York, May 21.-There was no change today in the local raw su- gar situation and prices are quoted at 7.28 for centrifugal to the refiner. The Cuban crop seems to be progressing favorably and of the ninteen centrals that have finished their grinding for the season, nearly all have ground more than estimated earlier in the season, the total aggregating 1,638- 261 bags against 1,58S, 900 estimated,
 The market for refined sugar was again quite active with all refiners re- porting good inquiry. Some are a little delayed in delivery. Receipts of raw sugar at Atlantic ports during the past wek were smaller than the previous week although meltings were a little larger. Prices were unchanged at nine cents for fine granulated.

New York, May 21-Yesterday's big advance was followed by nervous and irregular fluctuations in the cot ton market today. July contracts sold off from 29.66 to 1920, and clos ed at 29.36 with the general list closing steady at net decline of B to 5 points.
 The market opened steady at a de- cline in response to relatively easy cables with May showing the maxi mum loss owing to the circulation of five or six notices There were good many overnight buying orders around the ring which soon absorbed the of ferings, however, and the market ral- lied right after the call
 Trade interests were buyers on the advance but the demand from that source was not as active as earlier Tn the week while the weekly report of the weather bureau was considered about a standoff, and the market broke again during the middle of the day.
 The market met support later and ruled steadier on reports of contin- ued active spot demand in the south ern markets.
 The close showed rallies of about 12 to 13 points at the lowest on the more active deliveries A private wire from Memphis said there was. the biggest spot demand of the season. Houses with Liverpool connections were sell CTS during the day while there was some selling of July believed to be for French account
