It is to be more thrilling vnan tne construclion and trans-Atlantic flight of the Graf .enpeiin. This new creation is a gigantic airplane, now being built ny ur. Uiiude Dormer, of Dormer-Wnl fame. Gossip de scribes it as having 12 motors of 500 horsepower each. It is to be a passenger liner. Its rooms are said to be more Spacious and more comfortable than those of the giant Zep pelin. It's center corridor is 7! feet, 9 inches long. On flights up to 1,000 miles in length it can carry, so "they" say, 70 or 80 passengers, with comfort for all of them. On longer flights, it will carry only 15 or 20 passengers. It will have a crew or 1 1, 'including two cooks nnd two stewards. It is to be equipped with a fine wireless plnnt, independ ent of the motors. Spark plugs or valve springs can be re paired while in the air. Short circuits and similar mishaps can be located and removed without landing. If the plane falls into the water, it is supposed to lie able to withstand the waves. It is divided into water-tijrht comoartments likp a boat There are numerous other remnrkjible features. A newspaper correspondent, asking Dr. Domier for con firmation of these and other glowing rumors, was told that ' nothing would be given out in advance. The craft is to speak for itself when it comes out. That policy stimulates public interest in the mysterious airplane and avoids promises which miirht; not 1 fulfills If the new plane is a success, it may revolutionize aii-planel i-uhmiucuuii. ii it is a lauure, at least it will have been a worthy experiment and one from which much of value may lie learned. day.
