' "a -w' -.Ik ' MANY FEAR TO GO ALOFT Johnstone and Hoxsey Start Vp for Altltndr. but Morm Carries Them Off and They .Make Day's Records for Distance. NBW TORK. Oct. X. Such ir the changes, of October weather that Ralph Johnstone and Arch Hoxsey. of the Wright team of aviators, went up for altitude at Belmont Park this afternoon and brought down the record of the day lor a distance. The fifth day of the international aviation meet opesVd full of promise and closed In a howling wester that filled the air with whirling Autumn leaves, slammed down the benches In the grandsiand. tipped out the canvas screens that bar the view of those who have not paid but hope to see the kfrmish line of the aviators, and put a top to further flights. Officially, flights for the Qorden Ben nett elimination trials, to pick an Amer ican team which shall defend the Inter national trcpliy won at Khelms last year by Ulenn Curtis, opened at o'clock tnls morning, but nobody cared to come out for them in the wind that was blow In U- .Mcn Loth to Start. At half past 1 o'clock, the special prise of ;u.M offered by Thomas F. Ryan for a flight from the field to the statue of Liberty, and return, was open to any aviator, but none of them dared try It. They chose to take advantage, instead, or the latest largesse allowed them by the committee permission to compete between 1:30 and J:4 o'clock any after noon during the meet, provided only that they should finish before 6:30. That narrowed the programme down to one hourly event for distance and alti tude. Latham. In an Antoinette mono plane, for distance, and Hoxsey and Johnstone, of the Wright team, for alti tude, were the only ones to brave a gale of from S to S3 miles an hour. Hoxsey and John-tone Hj Ass;. Johnstone and Hoxsey tried to set their wings and soar into the galo with out effort, but they showed that the way of an eagle In the air In still one of the things men do Dot understand. They kept their poise beautifully, but al though the speed of the biplanes they were flying Is normally 3a miles an hour, and their engines were running wide open, they were pushed steadily out of view and down over tne edge of the hortson.- Neither waa willing to come" down before the other and both were driven miles off the course. Word rime from Hoxsey first, that he had landed safely at Brentwood. L. I., about 35 miles distant. Johnstone was carried M miles to Middle Island Vil lage. U I. Each telephoned In that he hoped to fly back to the course tomor row. Latham Only Entrant. For the first hourly distance event, the sole entrant waa Latham in an Antot ' nette. Ha finished the boor with only 14 laps, 3 miles, in S& minutes. 31.10 sec onds and the figures show how persis tent was his battle with the gale. A special event for distance and alti tude was added to the programme to amuse the crowd, but It was long be fore any one rame out for It. Finally Audemar. a Swiss. In a tiny Demol selle danced over the course. After two rounds Audemars went bark to the hangars. By a Tight lasting only 30 minutes. In which he rose to an altitude of feet. Brooslns brought down t-K for first place. A few moments after he landed rame the wind storm and all further events were called off. Day's Event Summarised.

MRS. M'UM WAITS Beautiful Divorcee Laughs at Marriage" Rumbr. MARRY? ONCE IS ENOUGH Young Baltimore Society Woman Says 'TIs "Silly'' to fonect Her Name With That of Alfred O-wynne Vanderbllt. NEW TORK. Oct. 27. i Special.) Ap parently mstrlmary no longer hath charms fnr Mrs. Smith Holltns McKlm. recently arrived here after her divorce at Reno from the well-known Baltimore and New York doctor, for the woman, still young, says It Is silly to connect her name with Alfred Gwynne. Vanderbllt. once the husband of the beautiful Helen Kelly, now Mrs. Thomas. "Please don't talk to me about him. The whole thing Is so utterly silly,' was the emphatic reply to her Interviewer today when asked as to the rumor that connected her name with the scion of the Vanderbllt family. When asked If Mr. Vanderbllt would meet her In Baltimore, all the pretty divorcee would say was: x 'Tia Nonsense, Saya Bcaoty. "It la nonsense to think of such a thing. I ara tired of all this gossip and -eurmlfir.g. Why do people take such an Interest In meT It surely would be strange If I were cut out entirely from masculine attention, wouldn't It? And Just because a man or two or three hap pen to extend a few courtesies to me, I must be engaged or on the verge of an elopement." Thus ended the delightful Interview of a few moments as the daughter of the bromo-?ltser" king waa preparing to leave for Baltimore to visit her mother. Phe has been visiting with her father. Colonel Isaac E. Emerson, here for the past couple days, since her srrlve.1 from Chicago Her future plans, lira McKIra said, were unknown, even to herself. Mrs. MoKlm still calls Reno her home, but It Is Improbable that she will ever go there again to live. She leased a house there for a year and it la expect ed she will give up the same at the close of the holidays; at the expiration of the learv. Mr Emerson, Mrs. McKim'a mother, has not been well for some time and It la probable that the daughter, now free from matrimonial ties, will remain with tier parent Indefinitely. Vanderbllt Seen in Town. Alfred Vanderbllt has been In town thia week, but at no time vu seen In com pany with Mrs. McKlm. though It Is still the gossip of the "tpr that the young man la very close to the young divorcee and her family. Especial Interest has been attached to the presence In the dry of Vladimir Rogevtnl. a young Russian of noble fam ily, who has often been mentioned as a possible suitor fas; the hand of the Bal timore beauty. His name was drawn Into the Beno divorce suit, Mrs. McKlm swear ing that Rogevtnl was present In her home here when the doctor la alleged to have knocked her down. When not out with his daughter the Colonel has often been seen In the com pany of Rogtfvlnl and seeems to be on the best of terma with him. However, mhen the subject of his prob able marriage to Mrs. McKlm was broached. Rogevlnl characterised the ru mor aa absurd. He said: I understind sbe la going to marry Mr. Vanderbllt." DECISIONS MEET DELAYS (Continued From Tlrst Ps.) new and most Important element into all these discussions. Manifestly trans-continental rates cannot be finally adjusted until It has been first decided what application shall be made of the fourth, or long and short haul, section In Its present form to those rates by the terms of the act amending that section. Car riers are given until February 7. 1911. In which to file with the commission application for leave to charge less at mora distant points and hence the commission cannot have this question before It In a war Jo be discussed or decided until after that date. Hearing in March Probable. "It Is our present Intention to set down for hearing aa soon aa possible, and probably early In March, these ap plications of carriers under the fourth section. Both carriers themselves and all Interested parties and communities will be fully heard. Immediately there after the Commission will proceed to de cide and finally dispose of this whole subject, but our order cannot be made effective In . less than 30 days, and In view of the great number of rates in volved It Is probable that more time than this should be given in this Instance. On the whole. It seems evident that what ever rates are finally determined upon cannot be put Into effect before May 1. 1911. "Both carriers and Interested parties and communities should take notice of what is above said as to the date of srgument upon the application of the fourth section, and be prepared accordingly."
