MEXICAN AERIAL FLIGHT FRENCH
WRECKED ON THE WATER

CITY OF MEXICO Oct. 18.-Yes-
terday the aerial squadron attached
to the command of General Dieguez,
in Chihuahua, made practice flight
at Ciudad Juarez, and a number of
American aerial officers from Fort
Bliss, Texas, were present by invita-

full, and when finished the Americans
complimented the Mexican aviators
for the superb manner in which they
had acquitted themselves.

Cablegram received last night from
Spain give full details of the sinking
of the French steamer "Venecia" on
the Atlantic in the same latitude as
La Coruna, in Spain. The catastrG-
phe was due to a fire catching in the
engine room. Passengers and crew
had time TO escape in small boats,
and as they rowed out of danger the
burning steamer presented splendid
spectacle, and suddenly the vessel
plunged beneath the water, and where
towering mass of flame had illumi-
mated the scene, all was darkness.
When the fire first broke out Cap
tain Bonifacio had sent forth by wire
less the S o S call, and the trans
Atlantic steamer Chicago" picked up
the call several hundred miles away,
changed direction and hastened to the
scene Of disaster, but before she could
cover the distance the 'Venecia" had
sank. However, when the Chicago
did reach the latitude and longitude
indicated in the S O S call, she found
the small boats with passengers and
crew awaiting her. The Chicago"
lifted the small boats out of the water
and cared for all, there having been
no loss of life. Two hundred of the
passengers on the "Venecia" were
from Mexico. All lost their baggage.
The Chicago took the saved crew and
passengers to New York.
