OVATION AT FINISH Course from Euclid Beach to Cedar Point—Averaged 45 Miles Per Hour— Return Trip This Morning. Cleveland, O. Aug. 31.—Glenn H. Curtiss of Hamiondsport, N, Y., today established a new record for over- water flying by traveling over Lake Erie from FEuclid Beach, nine miles east of this city, to Cedar Point, O., approximataly sixty miles distant. The announced time consumed in the pas- sage was one hour and eighteen min- utes. The aviator's own estimate of the time was one hour and nineteen minutes. His average time was forty. five miles an hour, though one stretch of twenty miles was covered at a rate of a mile a minute. Same ‘Machine for Albany-New York Flight. Curtiss used the eight cylinder, fifty horse power biplane of his own' con- struction in which he made his recent flight down the Hudson river from Al- bany to New York. Twelve Mile Breeze Was Favorable. It was shortly after 12 o'clock when ihe biplane was taksn from the aero- drome. At 1.03 p. m., after it had been ascertained that the twelve mile breeze from the northeast prevailed in Clave- land and Cedar Point alike, the motor was started. At 1.06 p. m., with the cheers of forty thousand people who had gathered at the starting point ging in his ears, the aviator swept out over the lake. At Height of Two Hundred Foet. After reaching a height of two hun- dred feet the machine turned to the wesl. At 113 p. m. it had_passed Cleveland harbor, wher2 one hundred thousand people ' had grouped them- selves along the lake front, and on top of buildings, and three minutes later had faded into the mist bevond Rocky river, the western extremity of the s eighteen miles waterfront, Twenty Miles in Twenty Minutes. At 1.26, just twenty minutes after leaving Euclid Beach, the biplane was sighted off Dover bay. twanty miles distant. At 146 it passed Lora. 158 crossed diractly over Vermil and at 2.18 was sigited at Cedar Poini. Five minutes later it glided on to the beach in front of The Breakers hotel. Ten Thousand Greet His Arrival. A crowd of ten thousand people gath- ered on the beach went wild when Cur tiss landed. They gathered round him, lifted him from the machine and car- ried him on their shoulders to his hotal. Curtiss immediately telephoned his wife ‘of hiz arrival. After dining he announced that because of the breeze which had risen and rain which had Dbegun to fall he would postpone his raturn trip until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Air Currents Cut Down Speed. Had the aviator been able to main- tain the speed at which he set out, he probably would have broken all speed records. West of Dover bay however, he encountered air currents that materially impeded progress. S { months’ imprisonment. All appealed. i CUSTOMS INSPECTORS Joseph Zimmer of Philadelohia wnt | to Jamaica, L.
