12 iHE 3I0RNING. OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, 3IAKCH 8, 1910. ONLY BOOO PAY OF 70,000. ATTENDING Aviation Meet Closes, and - Hamilton Prepares to Go v to Seattle. LONGEST GLIDE IS MADE "When at Height of lOOO Feet. Art a tor Shuts Off Motor and Alights With as Much Ease as In Slight Descent. Portland's and the Pacific North west's first aviation meet is closed. The last flight made by Charles K. Hamilton in ills Curtlss biplane at tfie Country Club grounds yesterday after noon at 4:30 o'clock, lasting 8 minutes, formed a fitting climax to the series of thrilling exhibitions made by the daring aviator during the three days of the meet. The last flight was the longest, botfi In point of time and the distance cov ered and is thought by Hamilton to have been th fastest time ever made by him or any other aviator. He like wise ascending to a greater altitude than on any other flight during the meet. Coming down Hamilton made quite the most beautiful arid graceful glide of the meet. At an estimated height of nearly lCO feet he shut off the motor and glided to the earth, lighting with as much ease as if he had been skimming along within two feet of" the ground. It was the long est glide ever made by him or any other bird man and awoke in the crowd of 7000 -spectators- who witnessed it an enthu siastic demonstration that had laxed from exhaustion. This, morning Hamilton's machine will be taken down and packed for shipment to Seattle, where an exhibition similar to the one given here will commence next Saturday and continue, through Sunday end Monday. 60 00 Pay to See Meet. - Inside and outside the grounds, it is estimated not fewer than 70,000 persons visited the exhibitions. Of this number only about 6000 paid to get' in the grounds. About 200 were admitted by passes and almost as many as paid are said to have slipped through the fence. Others remained on the eminences sur rounding the grounds and saw the flights free. On Sunday at. least 47,000 persons are thought to have done this. Many brought their lunches early Sun day morning, and after choosing a good location, camped on the ground. As a result of this condition, the meet was the greatest "frost' ever known in Portland. The backers of the exhibi tion last night were unable to give a efinite- statement of the loss. This, they said, depends entirely on what jart of the guarantee Hamilton will de mand. The first day. Saturday, netted the management $1502 or approximately that amount. On Sunday, though 60.000 per sons witnessed the flights, the gate re ceipts' totalled only $3123.60. Yesterday at 60 cents per .admission, $930 was taken In, 1795 being admitted. Other sources netted $fi9S. All these amounts are ap proximated, though though to be' cor rect. E. Henry Wemme. the Portland booster and good roads enthusiast, is probably the greatest loser. Mr. Wemme Is now at Hot Springs. Ark., for his health. He was represented here by his personal attorney, George Joseph. The exhibition was se cured by him with a view to securing money for the Mount Hood-Portland road fund. He did not anticipate what hap pened' and will lose money. His own aeroplane, which he purchased from the Curtiss Company, was bought to aid the found. It has been on exhibition at Portland and Seattle. In Itself the aero plane represents an outlay of $5000. Full Statanient Will Be Made. A full statement of the receipts and disbursements, together with the financial .arrangements made to secure the meet, will be published In full In affidavit form this week. Of the total receipts approxi mating $6000. almost half probably will be required to take care of the expenses, not including the aviator, it was announced last nlsht. ' -. The only question now Is how much the loss will be. Every elTort is being made to make it as little as possible, so that the good roads fund will not suffer. Hamilton probably will leave for Seattle today. "My plans are. not made yet," he said. He is due to fly In Seat tle Saturday and may not go there be fore Thursday or Friday. An effort is being made by the man agement of the Seattle meet "to have the Wemme macplne there also, but this has not been defnitely decided. .E. J. Arnold, Mr. Wemme's manager, said last night that the machine "probably will be" left here In orde rthat Walter E. Donnelly may practice with It. It will require continuous practice all this week for the young Portlander to mas ter the craft, it is thought. Hamilton himself did not attempt extended fights until after 10 days of practising. Yes terday Hamilton made a. short flight with the Wemme machine, but came down after flying 100 yards, saying that the horizontal propeller was not adjusted properly. The suggestion was made that he did not care to advertise Wemme's machine, which accounted for his failure to fly It Hamilton. Displays Anger. During the meet souvenir hunters and possibly more mercenary thieves, have stolen parts of both Hamilton's and Wemme's machines. This resulted in a warm tilt taking place between Manager Arnold of the - Wemme ma chine and Hamilton, when the latter Insinuated that some of Arnold's men were responsible for it. Arnold "called him" on the statement and for half a minute it was thought the argument might end In a fisticuff. Mr. Arnold was extended a vote of thanks for his "untiring efforts in the interest of the meet" last night by the committee. Throughout he has looked after the arrangements of the grounds, guarding the machines and the dozens of little details: Only three flights were made by Ham ilton yesterday. Aside from the last they were repetitions of his former ex hibitions. One was a race between the aeroplane and an automobile. M. C. Dickinson, in his Stoddard-Day ton road ster, with George Joseph, raced with the aviator, resulting as had the former races, the aeroplane being an easy win ner.

Labor leaders are as much in i ne aarK as me car company officials. The union men in the employ of the car company have a working agreement with the Philadelphia Company which expires June 1, 1910. During the Sum mer of 1909 the union men struck, but the issues were compromised through Mayor Maeee. who acted as mediator, A clause of the agreement signed then was to the effect that the men would not go out again while the present wage scale is in force. EX-OFFICIALS TO PRISON PENNSYLVANIA CAPITOL GRAFT ERS LOSE IN APPEAL. Thieves ilust Serve Time, Pay Fines and Costs Civil Suits Brought for $5,000,000. PHILADELPHIA, March 7. The con viction of William P. Snyder and James M. Schumacher, charged with con spiracy to defraud the state in oonnec tion with the furnishing of the state capitol,- was afTirmed by the State Su preme Court rrere today. Snyder was a former General Auditor and Schumacher a former Superintendent of Public Buildings and Grounds. Snyder and Schumacher were convict ed in the Dauphin County Court at Harrisburg, on Decerrfber IS, 1908, and sentenced to serve two years and to pay a fine of $500 each and the costs of prosecution. John H. Sanderson, of Philadelphia, who had the furniture contract for the capitol, and William L. Mathues. of Media, former State Treasurer, who paid the alleged fraud ulent furniture bills, were convicted and received a similar sentence at the same time. Sanderson and Mathues have since died. HARRISBURG, Pa.. March 7. Actions in equity for the recovery by the state of at least $5,000,000, alleged to have been illegally paid- to . contractors for the furnishing of the ne'w state capitol were entered in the Dauphin County Court today by the Attorney-General. The suits are the outgrowth of the capitol investigation conducted in 1907, and are entirely separate from the criminal actions brought over two years ago. The commonwealth charges that Sanderson, the principal contractor, re ceived over $5,000,000 for furniture and equipment which was not worth more than $1,600,000, and that the Pennsyl vania Construction Company received over $2,000,000 for metallic filing cases, wardrobes, etc., which were not worth more than $750,000. WELLS-FARGO GETS RICH XET EARNINGS OVER 100 PER CENT OX INVESTMENT. Rate Hearing by Railroad Commis sion On Company Opposes Re ports as Evidence. SALEM. Or., March 7. (Special.) A hearing was held at the office of the state railroad commission today to de termine the reasonableness of the rates charged by the Wells-Fargo Express Company. The commission, which Is making the investigation on its own- motion, offered Tn evidence I the three annual report of the express company, showing in some cases net earnings of over 100 per cent on the amount invested. The comapny's attorney, Wallace Me Camant, objected to the reports being used in evidence. He explained that the comapny takes the position that the value of the service to the public and not the percentage of profits on the amount in vested should determine the reasonable-' ness of the rates. Ha said that the com pany was fortunate, several years ago. In making a-20-yeac contract with the Southern Pacific, by which the railroad agreed to handle the company's business for 40 per cent of the proceeds, while many of the express companies paid -as high as 50 and 55 per cent. For this concession the Wells-Fargo Cimpany paid $3,000,000. The company contends that this advantageous contract has enabled it to make more money than' it otherwise would and that the com pany should not be made to suffer on account of having had the business sagac ity to mawe this contract at the proper time to secure the best terms from the railroad. The express company also ob pected to the introduction of testimony showing what the rates are for the same distances in other states, unless the cities mentioned are similarly situated in all Important respects.. . Mesides Attorney McCamant, General Agent H. Beckwith and H. Carpenter, of Seattle, were here in the interests of the company. DAILY METEOnOIXWICAL REPORT. PORTLAND. Or..
