10ISSANT HEIRS
TO GET PRI2E
$10,000 Reward for Flying About
Statue of Liberty Was Disputed
By English Aviator Will Go to
American's Heirs.
NEW YORK, Jan. 11. Tho heirs
of John B. Molseant, aviator killed
by a fall at Nov Orleans, will receive
tho disputed ?10,000 Statue of Lib
erty prize, according to the belief of
aero enthusiasts here todny. Tho be
lief Is based on tho fact that the Brit
ish Aero club, representing Claude
Graham-White, has modified its
claim, now alleging that Moissant did
not fulfill tho conditions of tho con
test beforo starting. Whlto's original
protest alleged that discrimination
wnB shown agninst him by officials
of tho Belmont Park meet In not al
lowing him to again compoto for tho
prize after he had once failed to win
it.
Tho prize was offered by Thomas
P. Ryan for the fastest flight from
Belmont field to tho btatuo'and re
turn, and provided that contestants
must have been in tho air an hour
beforo starting. Whlto's tlmo was
tho fastest until Moissant cut it near
ly In half by flying over tho city In
stead of going around.
Whlto's latest protest charges that
Moissant did not stay up an hour bc-
foro starting. Supporters of Mols
sant's claim assert that tho rules
were fully compiled with, tho avia
tion committee having granted Mois
sant permission to sta.t.
Tho Aero club of America, It Is ex
pected, will announce its decision in
tho near future. The case was sent
back to the Amorlcan club from n
committee of tho International Aoro
nautlc Federation yesterday.

RULING IS NOT
FATAL-NORRIS
Nebraska Congressman Issues State
ment Declaring That Speaker's
New Ruling Has Not Nullified Re
forms Gained by Insurgents.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 11.
Congrcssman George V. Noma oi
Nebraska, insurgent leader in tho
fight for reform of the house rules,
who created the precedent that tho
amendment of the rules is a mnttcr
of , constitutional privilege over
thrown yesterday by the speaker today-
prepared an exclusive state'
ment for tho United Press sayinpr the
new ruling of the speaker has not
nullified the reforms already gained.
(Copyright 1011 by tho United Press)
By Representative George W. Nor
ris of Nebraska:
The insurgents of the house and
a few democrats are able today to
present a record consistently iuvor-
inn the progressive conduct of tho
business of tho house of represent.!-
lives. We were apparently overrid-
den yesterday by a committee of re-
republicans and demochnts but our
i :.. ..i i !. ..fc..nt ..f ......
iui-uiu m mum aim uiu umxt in u.n
fight last spring has not been mil
lificd. The progressive rules writ
ten then into tho records of the house
hnvo not in any way been abrogat
ed. The fight for progressive Ameri
can principles in legislation is going
on. Yesterday's action of tho house
is at most merely a temporary set
back. The attack on the precedent
set by tho house ruling on the so
called Norris amendment last spring
.vhen it was declared that u motion
to amend tho rules was the highest
constitutional privilege and the at
tacks on insurgent amendments to
ihc rules in progress sineo the be
ginning of this session, including the
filibuster against the denioeialie
"motion to discharge commit toe V
rule are typical examples of machine
control in tho house, and (here is no
doubt in my mind that they wore in
spired by a ring of tho "old guard"
with a view to discrediting tho ends
acomplished by (he bitter insnrgeiu
fight of last March.
Yesterday's rules fight was not an
insurgent engagement. It was start
ed by Kepresenlative Fuller, it close
friend and lieutenant of the speaker,
lie offered a resolution and argued
to the effect that it was privileged
under the con -titution, citing the do-
cHon of the home last spring to sus
lain hi., point. Then he voted again-it !

THE
Enables ns to offer what we honestly believe is the best
bargain in a producing orchard in the valley. There are
35 acres in the tract and it is only a mile from a shipping
station.
Thero are about 11 acres in apples, Ben Davis, Winesaps,
SpitzcnbcrgS Newtowns. Trees aro about 20 years old.
They are in good condition and produce heavily.
There are also about 12 acres in standard varieties of
poaches, in full bearing. About 8000 crates of peaches
were shipped from this orchard last year.
There arc also 8 acres planted to Newtown apples, which
were three years old this winter.
The balance of the land is cleared and was in grain last
year.
The buildings consist of a house, barn and packing
house.
We think a reasonable estimate of the crop on this place
this coming year would be 3000 to 4000 boxes of apples and
G000 to 8000 crates of peaches.
A team of horses and a full equipment of machinery goes
wtih the place.
The price is $15,000, a trifle more than $400 an acre. The
terms asked are half ens-h, balance easy. If you cannot
meet these terms as to the cash required, make uh an offer.
