AFTER TWO FALSE STARTS
Sails Tp and Down Field With Kase
and Mastery Over Aeroplane
and Lands in Front
of Grandstand.
liEMAXS, France, Aug. 10. After two
false starts. Wilbur Wright, the Dayton,
Ohio, aeroplanlst. made a successful as
cension here shortly before 8 o'clock this
evening. The machine flew about two
kilometers (1.24 miles) In 1 minute and
43 seconds, official time. Owing to the
lateness of the hour, Mr. Wright de
cided not to try a longer run. The flight
was viewed by several thousand people.
The evolutions of today were carried
out with the same ease and mastery as
those of Saturday. Mr. Wright caused
the machine to swerve out of a direct
line of flight and to describe two loops
like a great figure 8.
.Makes Two False Starts.
The first false start was due to the
clumsiness of an assistant, who held
onto the aeroplane too long, thereby
causing its right wing to touch the
ground and giving the machine such an
unmanageable tilt to starboard that
Mr. Wright made a landing after trav
ersing only 50 feet.
On the second trial Mr. Wuight got
away well, and the machine rose to 30
feet. It had traversed 600 feet when
suddenly it approached too near the
bnanches of some trees. The motor di
not perform its functions properly, and
Mr. Wright descended in good style.
Third Time He Succeeds.
Undismayed by these failures, Mr.
Wright just at dusk again ascended
and this time sailed up and down the
field at varying heights and finally
landed directly In front of the grand
stand to the accompaniment of a burst
of applause.
French experts were enthusiastic in
their praise of the machine and warmly
congratulated Mr. Wright.
It Is probable that the aviator will
again make a demonstration tomorrow.
EV INTEREST IN AVIATION
Zeppelin's Feat Causes Demand
for JLangley's Books.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10. With inter
est aroused by Count Zeppelin's airship
flight several days ago. and the tests now
being held at Fort Myer. the Smithsonian
Institution is being deluged with requests
for-the works of aero-dynamics, by Pro
fessor S. P. Langley.
To meet these demands the institution
has prepared a booklet containing four
of the principal papers written by Profes
sor Iangley, on his flvlng machine. The
'Stories of Experiments in Experimental
nights," "The Langley Aerodrome." "The
Great Flying Creature." and "Experi
ments With the Langley Aerodrome," in
which Professor LangbJ.- gives his version
of the last attempt to fly hte airship,
which ended disastrously.
Professor Langley was probably the
pioneer instigator and experimenter with
machines heavier than air, that were sup
ported In flight only by their own me
chanical en?rgy. He designed and built
several small models and a quarter size
model of a larger man-carrying machine,
which made successful flifrhts of over half
a mile each, keeping in the air as long
as fuel lasted. The first of these flights
was made in May, lS9t. over 12 years ago.
The small aerodromes, two driven by
steam and the third by gasnline engines,
are on exhibition In the United States
Museum.
The latter large machine, built not long
before Professor Langley e death, has
never been fully tested, a break occur
ring in the launching apparatus at each
of the two trials In 1903.
Although some of Mr. Langley's models
had flown short distances before, he pre
ferred to consider the flight of May 6.
196. over 12 years ago, referred to above,
as the first really successful one. Dr.
Alexander Graham Bell. Mr. Frank G.
Carpenter, and others, were witnesses on
this occasion. The model repeatedly flew
a distance estimated by Dr. Bell at about
2fj& feet or more than half a mile.
BALDWIN'S VOYAGE DELAYED
"eed of New Carbureters for Motor
Prevents Test.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 10. The official
speed test of Captain Thomas Baldwin's
dirigible balloon was not held at Fort
Myer today, as planned. Glenn H. Cur
tis, the builder of the motor, who went
to Hammondsport. N. Y.. on Saturday to
get four Carbureters for the motor,
wired Captain Baldwin last night that
he would probably be unable to start
for Washington until today.
The failure of Captain Baldwin to
attempt the speed trial on Saturday,
was taken by some to indicate that he
could not make the speed requirement
of 16 miles an hour. When questioned
Captain Baldwin said:
"It has at no time occurred to me
that I would not fulfill the speed re
quirements. I am satisfied that we will
make 22 miles an hour In the official
test. In our test of the motor at Ham
mondsport. we found that they had a
maximum pulling power of 280 pounds.
The shape of my gas envelope reduces
the resistance to a minimum. In fact,
whatever head resistance there Is, is
compensated for by the tapering of the
bag toward the rear end.
"The skin resistance and the resist
ance offered by the ropes, the frame
and the operators is practically all that
remains to be contended with. There
are any number of things which come
into play, but not being a scientific
man I can not explain them. I have
learned the theory from practice."
Professor Henry H. Clayton. he me
teorologist: John McCurdy. of the Aer
ial Experiment Association, and August
Post, secretary of the Aero Club, fig
ured out the speed which Captain Bald
win's ship would make as 22 miles an
hour.

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 10. Detec
tive William J. Burns tonight con
firmed the report of the arrest of
Peter Claudianos and announced that
the Greek, having- waived extradition,
will start West from Chicago in cus
tody of George E. Burns and John S.
McCarthy.
When Mr. Burns learned that
Claudianos had left this state and that
he was not In Reno, where it was
rumored he had gone, the officer de
cided the man had started East. This
belief was strengthened by a story
to the effect that a man answering
the description of Claudianos was seen
beating his way on an eastbound train.
Burns at once took steps to cover
Omaha. St. Louis, Kansas City, Chicago
and other points to which the alleged
dynamiter might go. George E.
Burns, a son of the detective was
in the East and his father sent him In
structions to take up the chase In
Omaha.
It was learned that Claudianos went
from St. Louis to Chicago. A decoy
letter addressed to "Peter Claudianos"
was sent to the Chicago postofflce. To
day George Burns and Detective Ser
geant John Rohan of the Chicago po
lice department arrested Claudianos
when he called and received the letter.
t first he denied his identity, saying
he was Jack Wilson, but when con
fronted by John II. McCarthy, a mem
ber of Mr. Burns' staff sent on to
Chicago for the purpose of identifica
tion and to assist in the search, he
broke down and admitted his identity.
He waived extradition.
It develops that Claudianos was ar
rested at Laramie. Wyo., for vagrancy
and also at Green River, Wyo., while
beating his way East.
Peter Claudianos has been sought since
July 13, when his brother, John
Claudianos, now in prison, made a con
fession implicating him In the dynamiting
of the home and flats owned by ex
Supervisor James L. Gallagher, one of the
principal witnesses In the graft trials.
In the confessions made by John
Claudianos he told of money paid to his
brother to blow up the houses, but he
did not know who gave the money. John
Claudianos said he was not properly
treated by his brother In the distribution
of the money received and this led him
to tell the story to the authorities. A
search was at once instituted for Peter
Claudianos and a reward offered.
Much damage was done when the Gal
lagher home ws destroyed some two
months ago. and some weeks later flats
being erected by Gallagher wars almost
completely wrecked. No one was serious
ly injured on either occasion.
MAUS SUCCEEDS FUNSTON
Veteran of Several Indian Wars Is
Given Promotion.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10. Brigadier
General Frederick ( Funston today turned
over the command' of the Department of
California to Colonel Marion P. Maus,
and will leave this week for Fort Leav
enworth, Kan., to take charge of the
cavalry school there.
General Funston, whose record as a
Lieutenant-Colonel In the Cuban insurg
ent army in 1S9S-7 and later as Colonel
of the Twentieth Kansas Volunteers in
the Philippines is well known, made
many friends In San Francisco by his
prompt action in turning out his troops
on -the day ofv the earthquake and fire
April 18, 1B06, practically taking charge
of the situation In the stricken city until
relieved by Major-General Greely.
Colonel Maus, the new commander of
the Department of California, has a rec
ord as brilliant and diversified as that of
General Funston. Graduating from West
Point at the age of 24, he took an ac
tive part in the Sioux, Cheyenne. Nez
Perces and Apache Indian campaigns
and was several . times commended for
gallantry in action and recommended for
the medal of honor. Colonel Maus, at
that time a Lieutenant, was with Cap
tain Crawford when the latter in com
mand of a small band of troops, mostly
Indian scouts, pursued Geronlmo's band
of hostile Apaches across the Mexican
line Into Chihuahua and was fired Upon
by Mexican soldiers. Captain Crawford
and Lieutenant Maus went forward to
parley with four Mexican officers to get
an explanation for the shooting.' While
in conference a shot was fired which
killed one of the Mexican officers, and
in the resulting battle between the Amer
icans and the Mexican troops, all the
American officers with the exception of
Lieutenant Maus were killed.
Mauff. after reaching his troops, fought
the Mexicans for five hours and inflicted
a loss so severo that they fled from the
field and then conducted his men back
across the line. For this action he was
awarded the Congressional medal of
honor. . - ,
PROTEST BY AUTO CLUB
Objects to Streetcar Track on Patton
Avenue.
The Portland Automobile Club at a
meeting last night received a committee
from the Albina Push Club which pre
sented the protest of the residents of the
Peninsula district to the proposed action
of the City Council in giving the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company a fran
chise to Patton avenue for streetcar pur
poses. The committee from the Albina
Club represented that this avenue was be
ing reserved for boulevard purposes and
that Its beauty should not be marred by
tho construction of streetcar tracks. It
was decided by the automobilists to unite
with the Peninsula people in presenting
their protest to the City Council tomor
row. J. B. Yeon, Sol Blumauer and H.
Wemme were appointed as a committee
to represent the Automobile Club. It was
also voted by the club at last night's
meeting publicly to notify teamsters and
automobilists of the dangerous condition
of the bridge near the Exposition grounds.
The club Is informed that this structure Is
unsafe alike for wagons as well as auto
mobiles. Repeated requests have been
made of the County Court to repair this
bridge but no steps have been taken in
that direction. Having spent from its
own funds about $15,000 on the roads of the
countv during the last four years, the
members of the club feel that they are
not asking too much when they insist
that the County Court should either re
place the bridge complained of or place
the old structure in a safe condition.
