After the remnants of the plane | were made fast aboard the Kyle, the steamer steered east-northeast in the hope that some trace might be found of the occupants of the plane.

NEW YORK, September 21 (#).—.| The New York Daily Mirror says to- | day that the wreckage of the trans- atlantic monoplane Old Gl recov- ered at sea, is in such condition that probably the reason for its crash never will be known. Hector Alexander, engineer, who helped prepare the Old Glory for its flight, in a report on his exa of the wreckage, says in pa “The only point emerging examination appears to be that the | machine made its first contact with the water with the right wheel, and it is impossible to determine whether the destruction was due mainly to the impact or to the subsequent action of the sea. “From the wreckage picked up hy the steamship Kyle I consider it quite | impossible to arrive at a definite rea- son for the forced descent of Old Glory.” e LONDON SEES COTTON | reau | slugged | was given to Chief Carroll, who, THIE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.: €.
