Shenandoah, via Columbus, O, Oct, 25.—New records in a new aera of air navigation will have been made by the navy dirigi, ble Shenandoah, the only American built rigid airship when it completes its spectacular 9,000-mile cruise and is led into its hangar at Lakehurst, N. J., late today, | Great Enthusiasm | Few it any national undertakings have aroused the enthusiasm of the Amerjcan people as the Shenandoah did among the thousands who saw it pass, a silver tube in the sky, or traveled from their homes to see it at one of the three mooring masts in the west, in its crulse of about eighteen and a half days. Skirting three sides of the United Siates and _returning by almost the same rout& {he Shenandoah has had one of the severest tests ever given to an airship. The cruise is the longest in time and distance ever made by an alrship of any type. No other rigid airship has ever navigated over mountain peaks and through passes as the Shenandoah did in ity two crossings of the Rockies. Tt is the first airship to complete a westbound voyage across the United States and the first rigid ship ever west of the Mississippl river. Tt isthe first rigid airship to nllI over the Pacific ocean at any point. The buffeting received by the Shenandoah as it fought the whirl- ing gales in the high altitudes over the mountains demonstrated the alr- worthiness of the American built ship. Few dirigibles could have withstood the storms and strain without breaking up, it is declared, and it ig pointed out that what the Shenandoah lacks in apeed compen- sated for in and reliability of navigation. Makes Good Average Although the great ship battled headwinds on four eut of stx legs of the cruise, she averaged between 38 and 40 miles an hour, including the hours sailing at low speed awaiting an opportunity to moor. The cruiss also demonstrated the practicability of the mooring mast for breaking long voyages and re- fueling and making minor repairs. The Shenandoah tried out three new masts, whose winches, water and fuel pipes of strength to hold the «hip had never been tested before. The great bag also made five land- ings, two of them on the ground be- fore coming tg the mast. The dan- gers of accidéhts in the air are slight compared to the risk during the terise minutes of making a land- tng. The six jumps in the cruise of the Shenandoah were each much short- or than the straightaway 5,000-mile flight of the ZR-3. The German- built Zeppelin is a faster ship than jts Amerfcan sky champlon, but it did not meet the difficulties over- come by the Shenandoah in ‘a single crossing of the Rockles. The two voyages in July of the R-24 from East Fortune, Scotland, to Mineoia, N. Y., and back to Pul- ham, England, were respectively 3150 and 3,500 miles &nd took cleven da A Severe Test For officers and crew of the Shen- andoah the cruise has been as sovere a test a for the ship. Through the nights and days, many of them fraught with perils which were avoided only by hours of sleepless duty ment stood watch or caught a brief rest on bunks in the cramped | keel tunnel. Only one man was severely in- jured and despite the irregular hours, uncertain food and rapid var- fations in temperature as altitude changed, no sickness, even to a cold, was reported aboard. In addition to coffge, beans and other warm and near warm navy rations, approxi- mately 4,175 sandwiches were con- sumed by the crew. As the Shenandoah crossed the Ohlo River into Illinois from Pa- ducah at 3:30 a. m., today, she was making better than fitty miles an hour.

WHEN HE IS CURED Hopeful Message From Washington Received Here Today building to Edward Ryan, assistant superintendent, will be enabled | réturn to New Britain after his eve trouble 1s cured, according to a Jet- ter received by former Mayor George A. Quigley from the depart- ment of labor at Washington this morning. Mr. Quigley and Paonessa, and two city departments have been interested in the case of Ryan ever since he went to Ireland on a visit last July Ryan was a resident of New Brit- ain for about 15 years. but never be- came a citizen. Last July he went to Ireland on a visit. On his re- turn October 4 he was heid up at Elis Island by the immigration au- thorities on the grounds that he was an alien and the British quota had heen filled. He appealed to the offi- cials in New Britain and steps were taken to get him through, when he developed a case of trachoma, a con- of the eye and his mission became impossible, Dr. R. W. Pullen, health super- intendent,. offered the use of the New Britai. isolation hospital if Ryan were permitted to enter, but according to law alien suffering from a contagious disease is “man- datorially excluded.” @ Recently Mr. Quigley sent a per- sonal telegram to Secretary of Labor James J. Davis acquainting him with the situation here and suggested that Ryan be given hospital treat- mitted to the country, stating that his job would be held open here for him until he arrives.

Give No Opinfon The department of justice will reach no final conclusion on the meaning of the law in gdvance of Attorney General Stone's return Monday.

None of them elicited responses of a character that would help to clear up the tangle. “The bureau of internal revenue explicitly stated its position in tele- grams to collectors,” sald Mr, Blalr. | “They were advised that a provision of the revised statutes makes it un- lawful to publish any Income tax re- turn, If this law has been violated, it 1s up to the department of justice to act.” Bockg Under Guard New York, Oct. 25.—Income tax lists at the headquarters for collec- {tion in lower Manhattan have been placed in a large safe until curiosity dies down.

WALLAGE DYING, END BELIEVED NEAR |Attending Doctors Say He Is Steadily Growing Weaker Washington, Oct. 25.—Physicians aftending Secretary Wallace of the agriculture department, who is lying between life and deatlgat a hospital here, sald shortly befofe noon today that the secretary's conditton “could hardly be more unfavorable” for re- covery. There still is a slight hope, but Mr. Wallace has been unconscious since early this morning and the polsoning which followed an opera- tion a week ago appears to have spread to all parts of the hody. Dr. Joel T. Boone, the White House physician+ v)ho is in attend- ance, indicated after his morning examination that it only was a ques- tion of how long the heart action would hold out. There was grave fear that the end might*come within a few hours, Mrs. Wallace and thelr daughter; Dr. Wallace Radcliffe, pastor of the Preshyterian church, attended by the secretary here, and James C. Davis, director of the railroad ad- ministration, and Mrs. Davis, were at the bedside throughout the morn- ing. Mr. and Mrs, Davis long have been: close friends of the family. The secretary is in his 59th year, and although he is naturdlly of a robust constitution, the effects of the toxemla polsoning have made ge- | rious inroads on his vitality. He lost ground during last night, when a rally had been hoped for by his physiclans, and as the day passed appeared to be growing weaker and | weaker. Secretary Wallace was sald this afternoon to be ‘very low.” His physiclans sald that he was “just barely alive.” TELLS OF DEATH THREAT BY MYSTERIOUS TRIO Roman Bazo of Burritt Street Says He Escaped Because He Didn’t Have $60.
