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.

MRS. SMITH HOLL1NS M'KIH.
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."

Manifestly trans-continental rates
cannot be finally adjusted until It has
been first decided what application

commission cannot have this question

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
