Orville Flies 80 Minutes and
Travels 70 Miles, Making
Circles and Eights.
COULD FLY TO BALTIMORE
Fulfils All Government Require
ments Except Carrying Passen
ger and Says It Would Be
Easy to Cross Channel.
WASHINGTON. July 21. Establish
ing a new record for aviation In Amer
ica. Orville Wright In the Wright aero
plane late today at Fori Meyer made a
spectacular flight of 1 hour 20 min
utes and 45 seconds' duration. The
longest previous flight was 74 minutes,
made by Mr. Wright at Fort Meyer last
Fal1-
Several thousand persons saw the
most daring feat of aviation yet ac
complished. The machine traveled
about 70 miles, as was estimated by
Wilbur Wriht, and at one time during
the flight the height attained was be
tween 260 and 270 feet, exceeding the
highest point ever reached by a heav-ler-than-alr
machine on this continent.
The most wonderful part of the flight
was the execution of three complete
figure eights.
Circles and Make Eights.
The machine started at 4:20 o'clock.
After traveling several hundred feet
only about five feet from the ground,
the aeroplane rose gradually to 75 feet
before making the first turn. After
passing the starting point, the aviator
sent the machine upon each turn to
about 150 feet, which waa maintained
until toward the end of the flight.
When making a turn on the fifth round
of the field, the aeroplane began tilting
perceptibly, but Mr. Wright brought It
on an even keel again before reaching
the third turn.
After he had been In the air half an
hour, making a complete round of the
field each time. Mr. Wright maneuvered
the machine through several short cir
cles, some not more than 600 feet In
diameter. After circling the field 64
times the machine started cutting the
figure eight, much to the delight of
the crowd.
Reaches Height or 2 70 Feet.
The aviator started to make a show
ing in regard to height. The aeroplane
rose on each lap until It was between 2
and feet In the sir. At this altitude
the machine flew half a doxen rounds
and then gradually descended. On the
last lap before landing. Mr. Wright ap
proached within SO feet of the earth. He
made a successful and easy landing after
completing S3 rounds of the Held.
Mr. Wright met every requirement set
forth by the Government except that of
carrying one passenger and making the
five-mile straightaway run. Both of
these requirements probably could have
been met, but It Is the brothers' Inten
tion to get their machine In perfect con
dition before attempting the official
flights. The Wrights declare that the
machine Is working much better than
required, but that they want to have
several more trials before the official
test.
Could Cross Channel Twice.
Wilbur Wright, replying to a comment
that tie flight today would have covered
the width of the English Channel. w4iich
Hubert I.aiham unsuccessfully attempted
to cross Monday, said It would have been
possible for his brother to cross from
France to England and to return to
France again without landing. He also
remarked that It would have been easy to
continue today's flight as far as Baltimore.

of wrath, he told his House colleagues
that it was their duty to stand up for
the House bill. Payne Is reported to have
said that he would not sign a conference
report merely because a majority of the
House Republican conferees agreed to It.
Then he stalked angrily from the room.
The 23 Republicans of the House who
calked upon the President recently to
plead with htm to recede from his posi
tion In favor of free raw material, were
considerably alarmed when they learned
of Payne's action.
Insurgents Support Taft.
The possible attitude of the House Dem
ocrats Interested tnem greatly, it was
said that, if President Taft and Payne
were successful In obtaining a conference
report carry"1" out the free raw material
programme, a large number of the minor
ity would be found supporting the H Re
publicans If they decided to vote against
the conference report.
A conference of the progressives was
held today. The meeting lasted nearly two
hours. There was manifest a disposition
to criticise the President for not Issuing
his statement earlier. Senator Dolliver
said:
"The Republicans who were unable to
vote for the pending tariff bill when It
massed the Senate have been greatly
pleased and encouraged by the efforts of
the President to charge the character of
the measure. It Is our earnest hope that
he will be successful in securing real re
vision."
Democratic Senators said today that
M.Brery would be the only member of
the Senate minority who would vote for
tne i-onference report.

lien the conferem'e committee met to
cay. the duty on thorite and monaxlte
sand received first attention. These ar
ticles are constituents of gas mantles,
and notwithstanding they are strangers
to the vocabulary of a large majority of
people, the difference between toe two
Houses as to the rate of duty has been
very sharp.
During the last 10 days of the confer
ence many agreements have been arrived
at. but most of the differences left to be
arranged are fundamental in character
and it Is believed can only be settled by
ballot.
Only the Republican members of the two
Houses axe sitting and the. representa

votes of three Senators and four members
of the House will be necessary to carry
any proposition.
Wood pulp, print paper and lumber, to
say nothing of hides. Iron ore and other
eo-called raw material, are receiving the
most serious attention from the conferees.
The paper and pulp fight bids fair to be
especially stubborn and probably will be
somewhat prolonged.
Much progress has been made on the
cotton schedule, but hosiery and a number
of other leading Items of cotton manufac
ture are causing the tariff arbitrators
much concern. The drawback provision Is
practically the only Important administra
tive feature that remains unsettled. .

SUDDENLY FULLS
Climax of Violent Wrangle Be
tween Clemenceau and
Delcasse.
PREMIER LOSES HIS HEAD
Enraged at Taunts Abont Naval
Scandal He Raises Specter of
the Algeciras Conference
and Is Defeated.
PARIS, July 20. The Clemenceau cab
inet fell suddenly tonight at the end
of a violent debate over the naval
scandals. M. Delcasse, chairman of the
Investigating committee, led the attack
upon the naval administration, espe
cially during the Incumbency of M. Pel
letan and M. Thomson, ex-Mlnisters of
Marine. M. Plcard, who succeeded M.
Thomson, had promised In the name of
the government to complete a series oi
reforms, when an Incident occurred
which changed a majority into a mi
nority. ' ,
Taunts Cause Uproar.
Premier Clemenceau, who always has
been an adversary of M. Delcasse,
smarting under the criticisms and
doubtless overconfident of a majority,
taunted the ex-Mlnlster of Foreign Af
fairs, who was thrown overboard by the
Rouvler Ministry at the dictation of
Germany during the crisis of 1905, with
having led France to humiliation at
Algeciras.
Raising the specter of the sacrifice of
Delcasse was a fatal error. Instantly
there was an uproar of dissent from
both sides of the chamber. Delcasse
flung back the taunt in Clemenceau's
face with bitter words, declaring that
France had gone to Algeciras In the
Interest of peace.
Delcasse Makes Counter Attack.
M. Delcasse Intimated that M. Clemen
ceau had Inspired articles In the foreign
press during the crisis, but this the latter
emphatically denied. The Premier
seemed for the first time In his Parlia
mentary career to lose his head. Finally
M. Delcasse, as he was explaining the
situation of 1906. drew himself up proudly
and said:
"I shall say nothing further on that
subject. I have nothing to fear. Nothing
in the past, nothing In our common mem
ories of 25 years, embarrasses me."
Turning to Clemenceau, he said:
"You were president of the naval Inves
tigating committee of 1905. Tour unspar
ing attacks upon every government dur
ing 25 years seemed sufficient guarantee
that you would find the root of the evil.
What were the results, I ask?" v
Clemenceau Storms In Rage.
M. Clemenceau, now evidently in a rage,
tried to parry the thrust by returning to
the charge.
"Tour policy as Foreign Minister," he
shouted, "led us to the greatest humilia
tion France has experienced in 20 years."
Another storm of hostile cries arose,
several deputies crying:
"It is an outrage to say that."
But the Premier tried to assume his old
cynical air.
"Oh. no false Indignation, I pray you,"
he cried. "You brought us to the verge
of a war without military protection. The
whole world knew that the ministers of
the war and the navy, when the ques
tion was put to them, replied that France
was not ready.. I have not humiliated
France as Declasse has done."
Cabinet Beaten, Resigns.
The chamber was In an uproar when
the Premier took his seat. Amid the
wildest excitement the vote was taken
and when It was announced that the gov
ernment had been beaten by 221 to 176,
Clemenceau stalked out of the chamber,
followed by the other ministers In token
that he Intended to resign. M. Clemen
ceau went at once to the Elysee palace
and told the story to President Fallleres,
who seemed stupefied at the Incident,
but he accepted the resignations.
There Is but one opinion in Paris to
nightastonishment that an old parlia
mentary warhorse like Clemenceau
should have committed political suicide
by his awkwardness In recalling the
Algeciras specter when the government
was assured of a majority on the naval
question. The Premier's action drove
about 50 members of the Republican
"bloc" into combination with the Right
and Extreme Left, unhorsing the man
whose ministry had been the longest In
the history of the Third Republic and
who for three years had been absolute
master In France. More than 60 mem
bers of the majority, enough to have
saved the day, were absent when the
vote was taken.
Guessing at Successor.
The fall of the cabinet was so unex
pected that the political world Is com
pletely at sea as to who will be the
successor. President Fallleres will
consult with the presidents of the
chambers tomorrow. The name of Leon
Bourgeois, ex-Premier and ex-Mlnister
of Foreign Affairs, Is most frequently
mentioned, but his age and health are
against him. M. Briand. Minister of
Justice, and M. Delcasse are also men
tioned. The Socialists are overjoyed at Clem
enceau's downfall. Mr. James, the So
cialist leader In the chamber, said:
"With Clemenceau disappears the
most dangerous man In the republic"
noon, waa executed under cover of a
feint against the Spanish flank.
The first charge was repulsed, but In
the evening a violent assault was made
for the purpose of capturing the Spanish
battery. The Moors displayed great cour
age and skillful tactics. They rushed the
fortifications in small squads, and many
succeeded In breaking through the barbed
wire entanglements, where they fell at
the mouths of the cannon after hand-to-hand
fighting.
It was 3 o'clock on Sunday morning

General Marina, commander of the
Spanish force In Morocco, was directing

Major Roya were killed while defending
a battery.
The Moors bore off several bodies, with
the Intention of burying them, but the
Spaniards made a sortie and recaptured
tae bodies.

SALVATIONIST HAS PISTOL DFEL
WITH ENEMY.
DEMOCRATS SEEK DEFEAT
Italian Who Courts Wife Shoots and
Captain Bringe Replies, but
Is Wounded.
BENTON HARBOR, Mich., July, 20.
(Special.) Captain Albert Bringe, of the
Salvation Army, who came here from
Chicago to take charge of a local post,
last night engaged in a pistol duel with
Alexander Bartouci, a dashing young
Italian. More than a dozen snots were
fired. Brings was seriously Injured In
the groin. The Italian was arrested In an
attempt to flee the city and Is now In
the County Jail.
Improper relations which Bartouci Is
said to have had with the Salvationist's
wife are believed by the officers to be
the cause bf the shooting. This theory is
partially substantiated by the fact that
early In the Summer Captain Bringe fired
several shots at the Italian, missing him
by the merest chance. Returning from
Chicago early one morning, Bringe
peeped through a window of his home
and saw Bartouci claiming the attentions
of his wife. Bringe tired pointblank
through the glass at the Italian, who es
caped through a rear uoor.
According to Captain Bringe. last night
he was going through the alley near his
home, when he was fired upon and he
opened fire. BartoucJ was concealed be
hind a wall, while Bringe, standing In
the open, returned his nre until wounded.
