I The plane, on which Courtney ' had concent rated months of cn I deavnr In the hope of realizfim his lamliition to fly the Atlantic west Sward, was abandoned to the sens 1 which had claimed it. This Infor , ination was ndayed by the Htcamer i Vdric. j "fteHciied Captntn Courtney nnd i cj-cw from plane.

They had landed near the smith em steamship lane and many ships heariiur their calls for aid turned from their courses toward the posi tion plven. The I 'resident Mayes was the first to reach the latitude and lon gitude Captain Courtney had nlven and when she reported no slmi uf the fliers, fears arose.
