TORONTO, Jan. 12.—The Aero Club of Canada here to-day announced it had called off the official banquet to the three Amer- ican naval balloonists in view of the fight at Mattice yesterday between Lieut. Farrell and Lieut. Hinton. The Aero Club does not attempt to pass judgment on the dispute in any way, or to comment on the justification for it, but it is feit that a banquet in honor of three men, more or less estranged, would be a most awkward affair for all concerned, Major B. S. Wemp, club President, explained. FARRELL AND HINTON MAKE PEACE MATTICE, Ont., Jan. 12.—There was every outward evidence to-day that Lieut. Farrell and Lieut. Hinton had patched up their differences which yesterday afternoon, less than half an hour after they had reached civilization and safety, resulted in a knock-down fight in which Farrell was the aggressor. The two men, with Lieut. Kloor, the other aeronaut in the naval party, spent the night in the private car provided for their use by the Canadian National Railway and undoubtedly talked over their regrettable encounter. But neither would make comment of any kind upon it to-day The party will start from here this afternoon at 4.38 o'clock for home by the way of Toronto and Buffalo, ‘~ Official report of the voyage of the DAUGHTER OF 7 balloonists was telegraphed to Secre- BARRED AT TRIAL| with tne ting of the report, pree |tary of the Navy Daniels to-day, pared by Lieut.
