today announced his desire to purchase
one of tha Wright aeroplanes and made
known the fact that he had requested
Wilbur Wright, the great aviator, to
take him up for a flight If his weight
was not too great for the machine.

Morgan accompanied the military' at
. taches of the various legations on their
visit to Wrights headquarters. Wilbur
Wright explained his . ship and gave, a
description of its operation. He made
no. attempt to. fly yesterday.
Wright will alve a number of exhibi

opinion of the railroad officials that
ths Missouri decision -undoubtedly will
be taken into consideration in other
