Tower Boat Goes Oat After Report
Is Received and Investigates In
Vicinity, but Hunt Proves to
Be of Xo Avail.
IOS ANGELES. Pec. 1. A day of
futile search by land and water and the
Investigation of numerous rumors, all
of which proved groundless, strength
ened the conviction that Aviator Horaco
kearny and Chester Lawrence, his com
panion, had lost their lives In their at
tempted hydroaeroplane flight to San
The fruitless search of the last two
days and nights for wreckage from
Kearny's flying machine has brought
ths inevitable conclusion that they fell
from such an altitude that air craft
and men plunged to the bottom of the
Pacific when they struck the water.
Mlirht Hope Wane.
Optimistic friends of the two men.
particularly those versed In aviation
nd knowledge of the coast, cling to
the slender hope that the biplane might
have been blown by Saturday's gale to
ward the group of Santa Barbara chan
nel islands and a landing effected on
one of them. This faint hope was
dimmed by word from Santa Barbara
that the channel islands stood out 'clear
Saturday afternoon and that the land
ing of an aeroplane would have been
observed.
Except for the disappearance of the
two young men, nothing Indicative of
their possible fate has been found
other than the cylindrical wing pon
toon picked up at sea yesterday.
The tension of anxiety and uncer
tainty was relieved somewhat today
when the steam schooner James H.
Illgglns, arriving at Redondo Beach,
reported having sighted & mass of
wreckage about a mile distant from the
vessel at 7:30 o'clock this morning.
Neither of them knew until they reached
port of the' missing men and craft.
Boat Falls In Search.
A powerboat immediately was sent
out in the direction given by the of
ficers of the vessel, but found noth
ing. The power yacht Skidbladnlr, owned
by Frank A. Garbutt. a wealthy yachts
man, who accompanied Glenn Martin
on his hydroaeroplane Journey yester
day, reached here tonight from Santa
Barbara and reported that a careful
search of the coast line between San
Pedro and Santa Barbara had revealed
no trace of the Snookums or its pas
sengers. It was Impossible tonight to get into
communication with the British sloop
of war. Shearwater, which left today in
the direction taken by Kearny. ' Cap
tain Walters, in command of the British
fleet in Pacific waters, said, before the
vessel departed that a careful lookout
would be maintained, but wireless sta
tions reported tonight that the Shear
water's operator refused to take any
messages.
Knabenshue Expresses Hope.
Koy Knabenshue, a well-known air
man, is one of those who believed to
day that Kearny and Lawrence might
yet be alive. Knabenshue was up In
a dirigible balloon Saturday, and at an
elevation of 7000 feet he said he could
clearly distinguish the channel islands
off Ventura and 'Santa Barbara. He
'said that it was possible for Kearny
to have reached the nearest one in an
hour and a half after passing Point
Firmin, where they were last sighted.
Charles F. Willard, a pioneer aviator,
declared that there was only the slight
est chance that the men were alive.
His theory is that Kearny was forced
to descend because of engine trouble,
and in landing the big pontoon, or
'floater," was smashed by a wave. An
accident of this kind, he said, would
have resulted In the Immediate sinking
of the craft, and the men, unable to
get out through the network f wires,
would have been dragged down by the
heavily weighted machine.
The fact that no sign of the biplane
has been found revived the hope that
the airmen might have been picked
ud bv an outward-bound vessel not
equipped with wireless. A search of
the. shipping records disclosed that
thre northbound vessels left San Pedro
Harbor Saturday. These were the
schooner Irene, which sailed at 1:30
P. M. bound for- Portland direct: the
steamer Caspar, bound for Grays Har
bor, which Mt at 6:30 o'clock, and the
steamer Helene, which left for San
Francisco at 6 P. M.
Craft In Poor Shape.
It was not many hours after the
aviator and his passenger bad been re
ported missing that it was learned that
Kearnjra craft was not in proper shape
for the journey. Spectators noted at
the time of their departure that instead
of rising to a fair altitude the areo
plane sagged heavily, despite contin
ued "stepping aloft" by the pilot. Ex
perts declared that this was due to the
fact that in addition to the weight of
the passenger the gasoline tank, which
carried 20 gallons of fuel, had not been
used on practice flights.
Experts said also that the tank
which had air pressure was leaking at
the time of the start, and they recalled
Kearny's words to Lawrence: "Don't
get scared, Chester, it she starts Sizing;
Just pump as hard as you can."

Suffragettes Carry Demand

25 IN LONG PILGRIMAGE
Marchers Bravely Strike Out From
New York City to Go 140 Stiles
With Message to Sulzer.. '
All Are Confident.'
TOXKERS. N. Y.. Dec. 16. The band
of marching suffragettes en route
from New York to Albany, reached
Yonkers today with a declaration that
they would place New York in the list
of equal suffrage states in 1915 or
leave the state.
"The sloean of the band of pilgrims.
declared Mrs. Jessie Hardy Stubbs, of
Chicago, one of the speakers, "is "votes
for women in New lork btate in iio.
We are determined to have suffrage
in this Btate then and unless we get
it, we women are going to leave New
York and ltve in those states where
women already have the right to vote."
"First aid Is all right for our small
bruises, but nothing will cure us but
votes for all."
Thus sang the 25 .suffragettes as
they trudged along on their 140-mile
walk to Albany to deliver to Governor
Sulzer on his Inauguration day a mes
sage for the cause of woman suffrage.
Clad in sweaters, macklnaws, short
skirts and high boots, and headed by
a woman beating a martial tattoo on a
snare drum, the marchers left New
York City shortly after 9 o'clock. Sym
pathizers of both sexes were on hand
and cheered lustily when the leader of
the pilgrimage. Miss Rosalie Jones
"General Jones," as she is called by
her fellow suffragettes gave the or
der "Forward march."
Suffragists who don't feel like tak
ing the whole 140-mile walk will Join
for as much of a Jaunt as they can
manage. In fact, the pilgrimage is
a sort of relay affair. But Miss Ro
salie Jones, with whom the idea origi
nated, expects to be a through pilgrim.
Miss Jones and Miss Ida Craft, who
Is one of the long-distance pilgrims,
are wearing the white and yellow hats
which were the official headgear in
the recent torchlight parade. Both
say they are good walkers and that
they expect to have no trouble keeping
the pace they have set for themselves.
"I think three of us will walk all
the way," Miss Jones said. "But a good
many will walk only one day. We shall
not try to cover more than 10 or 12
miles a day and shall hold meetings
every evening at the town where we
spend the night."
PEACE CONFERENCE IS ON

as Tchataldja to a line to be determined
nr. litpr: the annexation of Crete to
Greece and "the payment by Turkey of
a war Indemnity and of the expenses
Incurred by the allies on account of the
Turkish prisoners.
Amnesty to Be Offered.
The allies in return are prepared to
xnmnleta amnesty to the Mussul
man population in the territory they
annex for any acts oi nosumy uunng
the war.
The return of all prisoners; the rec
ognition of the spiritual sovereignty
of the Sultan over Ottomans, becoming
subjects of the Balkan states and the
free administration by the Mussulmans
of their pious foundations In the Bal
kans. "
To these conditions baa now been
added the taking over by the Balkan
states of that part of the Ottoman pub
lic debt corresponding to the territories
which they annex. " .
The terms formulated by Turkey have
kun Vent secret but it may be asserted
on good authority that they include the
renunciation By Doin siae i uj
money transaction under the form of
Indemnity or otherwise, except the tak
ing over zy the Balkan states of a por
tion of the Ottoman public debt pro
portionately to the new territories they
acquire.
They provide, also that the Sultan
shall have a representative In the ter
ritories passing to the allies, where
Ottoman court sshall be instituted for
Mussulman subjects; that Adrlanople
the first Turkish capital In Europe
and surrounding territory shall emain
to Tukey, that the Tuko-Bulgalan
frontier south of . Adrlanople shall be
marked by the Marltza River, while
the territory west of the Marltza as far
u th Struma River goes to Bulgaria,
which would thus have the port of
Kavala, to which she long has aspired.
Turkey will demand that Salonika,
over the possession of which It is
nointed out. serious Greco-Bulgarlan
antagonism has arisen, shall remain to
Turkey, and together wun juonastir
and Scutari and their respective dis
tricts shall form Ottoman territory sur
rounding Albania.
Servia is to have Uskup, Pristina,
Mitrovitza and part of the Sanjak of
Novipazar, the remaining part going to
Montenegro.
Bulgaria to Get Thaaos.
To Bulgaria Is conceded the Island of
Thasos.'but Turkey claims possession of
the other islands in the Aegean Sea,
Including those now occupied by Italy.
hM-ause thev belong to Asiatic Turkey.
But the administration at Constahtln-
oDle Dledges itself to obtain from i;ng
land, Russia, France and Italy, the four
protective powers In Crete, tneir con
sent that this island shall be annexed
to Greece.
These terms would give the allies
four-fifths of the territory which a
few weeks ago was European Turkey,
but. notwithstanding what seems to
be a great concession, a comparison of
the terms of the allies with those of
Turkey is sufficient to show the im
mense gulf separating them.
Even admitting that many conces
sions are made on both sides, an ulti
mate understanding appears difficult.
Because of this, the idea of mediation
has been put forward.
All the delegates, however, declare
emphatically that they know nothing
about mediation, and that it is ex
traneous to their mission here.
It was pointed out that the only
great power absolutely disinterested is
the United States, and that if it were
possible to bring about something of
the. same Intervention which in 1905
led to the Portsmouth conference and
the conclusion of peace between Russia
and Japan, there might be actual
mediation.

Lack of Equipment in This Country
Pointed Out In General Allen's
Report on Subject.
WASHINGTON, Dec 16. The neces
sity of teaching army officers to be
come expert aviators is emphasized in
the annual report of Brigadier General
Allen, chief signal officer oi the army.
General Allen says the number of
expert civilian aviators now available
In the United States is not large enough
to provide an adequate auxiliary, and
he believes no marked advance will be
made In the manufacture of aeroplanes
In this country unless the manufac
turers receive support from the Gov
ernment. "Manufacturers all believe," ' says
General Allen, "that the construction of
aeronlanes for exhibition work virtual
ly Is at an end and the number .so far
purchased for purposes or amusement
has not reached the figure expected.
In case of emergency. It seems improb
able that any considerable number of

on the part of this Government. With

MRS. J. K. OSTERIlOtT AND SON
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a
wide reputation as a preventive and
cure for croup. It has been in general
r,y mnnv vears and has never
been kno'm to fall. The fact that It
can always be depended upon and is
pleasant and safe to take makes it a
favorite with the. mothers of croupy
children. Mrs. J. B. Osterhout, Auburn.
N. Y., writes: "I take great pleasure In
writing you a few lines to tell you of
the splendid results my son Harold has
received by using Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy for croup. He has been more
or less troubled with this complaint
for four or five years, and although
I gave him various cough medicines.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was the
first to actually relieve him. I always
gave It to him according to the direc
tions, thereby causing him to vomit
and expel the croup membrane, curing
him promptly. It cannot be beat for
children, and I recommend it to all
mothers."
