DUTCH ROLLS IN SPACE Hair-Raising Demonstrations at Boston Meet—White Goes Harbor—Races Curtiss Today for Cup Aviation Over Boston, Sapt. 14—Fancy aeroplaning was on the programme at the Harvard aviation fleld today, with Ralph John- stone and Walter Brookins as the star. performers. They demonstrated their skill_with the biplanes until Wilbur Wright feared for their safety and sig- ralled to them to desist. Johnstone's most noteworthy stunt was to indulge in steep volplanes, shutting his engine almost completely off and fioating lazi Iy for a moment on an even keel, then suddenly shooting down through space until he almost touched the grassblades on the ground. Then would follow a series of Dutch rolls as he swooped up and down close to earth. Brookins performed the most daring feat of the afternoon in making his famous short turns, standing his biplane almost on end as he made a complete circle in scarcely more than six seconds. His machine reached an angle of more than 85 degrees at times. Curtiss Shows Speed. Gienn M. Curtiss came out with a high power motor in his Albany fiyer, while Charles F. Willard used another Curtise machine. They completed sev- cral circuits of the course in a speed race and Curtiss made the best time ha has shown at this meet, covering five and a quarter miles in six minutes i3 3-5 seconds.

Grahame-White of England five and a quarter miles for a §3,000 cup offered by the Harvard Aeronauti- cal societ: There will be bomb drop- ping contests for two cups, one offered by the city of Boston and another by John Hays Hammond. Ag a final demonstration a battleship in front of th: grandstand will be blown up by the dropping of an actual bomb from an aeroplane by Ralph Johnstone. NEXT MAINE DELEGATION EQUALLY DIVIDED. Belated Returns Show Two Republican nd Twe Democratic Representa- tives. Portland, Me., Sept. 14.—Two repub- lican and two democratic representa- tives will' constitute the -next~M&iTe’ delegation in the national house. Doubt as to the makeup of the delegation was cleared up today when belated returns from remote towns of the Fourth dis- trict showed the re-elsction of Con- gressman Frank E. Guernsey (republi- can) of Dover by a small plurality. The election of Asher C. Hinds (re- publican) in the First district is shown on the face of unofficial returns, but there may be a recount. In the Seécond and_Third districts the Democratic candidates, Daniel J. McGillicuddy and Samuel W. Gould, won decisively. Attorney Charles F. Johnson, a prominent democrat of Watervillé, is to be a candidate for the United States senate at .the coming session of the legislature. That body will be demo- cratic by a vote of 111 to 69 in joint convention, thereby insuring the elec- tion of a senator of that political faith to succeed Senator Eugene Hale. NO ONE SLATED FOR MAINE POLITICAL PLUMS. Governor Plaisted Says Plenty of Time to Distribute Offices. Portland. Me., Sept. 14.—Governor- elect Plaisted declar=d today that the selection of a candidate for United States senator was entirely in the hands of the democratic senators and representatives-zlect. No one is slated for any position.” said the governor-elect, “and I will state there has been no conference of leaders at any time during the cam- paign, or since the election, looking to a distribution of offices. We have four or five months to consider these mat- ters. With reference to his policy as gov- ernor, Mr. Plaisted said today: “T have made no promise or pledge except those made in the democratic state platform, on which 1 stand squarely. They include the reveal of the Sturgls law and resubmission of the prohibitory liquor law.

New York, Sept. 14.—Adolph Roth- barth of the firm of Martin Rothbarth & Co, hop dealers, with offices in London, Frankfort and St. Petersburg, Dleaded guilty today to the larceny of $10,000 from the Mercantile > tional bank and was held for trial in an equal amount of baii. He had been under surveillance 48 howrs and his | arrest occurred after a long confer- ence between -the district attorney’s office and a coterie of bankers with whom he has had dealings. “Your honor,” said the assistant trict attorney in charge of the case, “though the specific sum named in this complaint is only $10,000, the ac- tual amount the bank alone has lost will come to more than $100,000, but 1 ask only this small bail. because the prisoner has admitted that he did wrong and promises to afford the pros- ecution every aid in his power.’ The money went in speculation, ac- cording to Rothbarth's own admission. “T was squeezed in the panic of 1907, he said, “and began to get loans from nal Bank Out $75,000. S. Schenk, president of the Li erty National bank, gave ont a state- ment today of the bank’s dealings with Rothbarth. “We have not thought it necessary to prosecute,” he said, “in view of the action taken by the Mer- cantile National bank, but, none the Of course we 'shall take action to get hack as much of it as we can from the firm. “We have been doing business with Martin Rothbarth & Co. for more than three years. The loans given to Adolph Rothbarth in behalf,of his firm cover a period of about that time. The loans made were of varving amounts, but in January, 1910, they were all paid up. Later Rothbarth began borrowing again. On a state- ment made by him August 31, that the credits of the firm aggregated $1,200,- 000, we advanced him $75,000 When | we learned later that he had got loans from other banks, we investigated and found that the statement madc to us was false. All the previous transac- tions had been very businesslike. Three other banks are said to be in- volved, but their names have not vet come out. It is said that by juggling his loans among them, Rothbarth was able to keep-as much as $300,000 in the air at once. He could not give the bail demanded and had to spend the night in the Tombs. ZEPPELIN AIRSHIP WRECKED | BY MOTOR EXPLOSION | Three of Crew Also Hurt—Fire Burns | the Shed. Baden-Baden, Sept, 14.—If anvthing | could discourage that intrepid apostle of acronautics, Count Zeppelin. it would appear ‘to have been furnished today, when the Zeppelin VI, the last and latest model of his invention, was wrecked by the explosion of one of the three motors located in the stern gon- dola. Three of the airship’'s crew were | seriously injured. The sccldent occurred as the dirigi- ble was being slowly worked into her shed here. The defective motor had been operating as usual when sudden- ly the crew were whirled from their posts in the rear gondola as the craft trembled and lurched. There was a sharp report, a flash of flames, and in a moment the immense fabric of silk canvas was on fire. The crew tumbled over the sides of the airship, barelv escaping with thelr lives. The fire spread so rapidly that the shed was soon destroyed. This is the fifth serious accident which has befallen the Zeppelin diri- gibles, the histories of which have been brilllant but brief, and emding in disaster, CHAIRMAN KENEALY REELECTED | BY STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE Bulkeley Faction Pressed the Vote— | Secretary Appointed Later. Hartford, Sept. 14—The new repub- lican state central committee met after the convention adjourned. As the changes in membership as the result of last night's caucuses were many, it had been forecasied that the com- mittee had a leaning toward ex-Go ernor McLean for the senatorsk apout 20 to 15. This meant, it wa supposed, that Chairman Keanely would be dropped. Secretary Hinman had announced that he would not stand for re-eiection. He wished to retire two vears ago. Judge Banks pre- sided at the committee meeting. It was proposed to put over the election of a chairman for two weeks. Colonel Ullman opposed this, and McLean men would capture the chair- manship.
