who viewed wreckage of the

agreed today that a bolt Of light

both wings from the fuselage.
The plane was returning to
Kansas City from a fishing trip
in the Gulf of Mexico when eye
witnesses saw what they thought
was an explosion. Both wings
parted from the fuSelage, and
the plane plunged to earth about
S miles from here. The wings
fell several hundred feet from
the mems bodies.
The dead:

County authorities were ex-
pected to call an inquest today to
determine the exact cause Of the

RICHMOND, Va, July IL
Whether the descendants Of John
Gum were paid when the State
of Virginia condemned Gums
private property in 1874, on which
the Virginia State capitol now
stands, looms as a matter for gen.
eral assembly investigation'and re-
port, according to Judge Julien
Gum, of the Richmond city cir
cult court, and r. Wexford Gum,
wholesale grocer, of this city.
Judge Gum corroborated the
statement made previously by his
kinsman, r. Wexford Gum, to
the effect that no record Of pay
ment by the State can be found.
Admitting the probability that
the claim was paid, and that heirs
would not have let the matter
sleep since 1874, Judge Gum
pointed out, however, that John
Gum was a legal infant when the
Gums yellow house on Capitol
Hill was condemned. and that
there is q, chance that payment
to him or his heirs was delayed
and eventually forgotten.
Judge Gum said:
"Such things have been known
to happen. What little study
gave to the matter has been
most interesting, because IL is
bound up with the Thomas JEFF
ferSOn letters on the founding
Of the capitol.
my cousin, r. Wexford
Gum, has devoted several
years intensive study to the
matter. He informs m' that the
final report of the executors Of
James Gums estate, filed in
HenricO court when John Gum
attafned his majority, fails to
make any mention of payment
having been made for the con-
demned property, or that it was
in litigation. With cOndemna-

the possibility is that the mat
ter was before the legislature
