S. AH AVIATOR liSTJim KILLED e First Lieut. Moss L. Love Drops 300 Feet in His Ma chine at San Diego. SAN DIEGO.. Cah, Sept. 1. First Lieutenant Moss U Lovo of the Eleventh cavalry, U. S. A., ono of the officers detailed to study aviation at the North Island camp here, was dashed to death early today when tho aeroplane on which ho had been sail ing shot to the ground from a height of about 250 foot. Nearly every bone in the officer's body wns broken and! his skull was fractured in three places. Lieutenant Love rose for a flight at 7:3o o'clock. The day was ideal, there! being scarcely a breeze. After flying around North Island for twenty minutes the aviator circled for alti tude until he reached a height of 2000 feet. There he shut off the motor and volplaned until his machine was about 250 feet from the earth. Then he sought to ascend. But in some man ner the motor was started. It drove the machine like a bullet to the earth, Lieutenant Love meeting death at. the camu from which he had ascended. The cause of the accident will never be positively ascertained, but aviation experts express the opinion that the lieutenant accidentally touched the motor clutch with his foot, the aero plane pointing toward earth at the time. That, the motor started was evidenced by a puff of smoke noticed bv the watchers the instant the down ward rush began. The body .of the dead officer will bo taken to "Fairfax, Va., leaving here to morrow. WASHINGTON, Sept. 4. Eleven aviators have been killed in the army and navv service . since experiments wore started with heavier than air machines in IflOS ten in the army and one in the navy.

The Washington government does not disclose exactly the nature of the oral assurances given Charge O'Shaughncssy within tho last few days that Huerta does not intend to run for the presi dency. Intimations of this character, however, have come to the administra tion from other sources Embassador Henry Lane Wilson on his return from Mexico City having informed the sen ate committee on foreign relations that Huerta had assured him he would not be a candidntc. Tn contradiction of those assurances, howovcr, significance is attached out I side administration circles to the con certed boom for Huerta '"s candidac launched in official and semi-official Mexico City newspapers immediately after the publication of Scnor Gam boa 's second note. Toduy's dispatches irom the Mcxicnn capital stating on high uuthoritv that Huerta would re sign jsoon in favor of General Goronimo Trevino so as to bo an eligible candi date for the presidency ami news that General Trevino had started for Mex ico City, also attracted wide attention. The administration here, however, having taken the view that the spoken and written word of the Moxicnn of ficials has eliminated Huerta from the presidential contest, arc looking for ward to the enrlv negotiation of an armistice by the Mexican factions and the prompt holding of a constitution;)! election. While the United States will interfere in no way in these election, it will consider itself free to withhold recognition until after it has scrutin ized the e'ections to determine if they had the approval of the Mexican peo ple, " John Lind, President Wilson's per sonal oivoy. will remain in Mexico in definitely.

White hous officials stated that Mr. Hale merely had presented tho facts nnd had . made no recommendations EFFORT TO POSTPONE ACTlHIHCy Resolution Introduced by Senator Weeks Will Be Brought Up Today. WASHINGTON, Sopt. 4. The senate was put upon notice today of an effort to carry tho currency revision .question over until the regular session, when Senator AVeeks, a Republican, member of the committee now conducting cur rency hearings, presented a resolution to direct the committee to withhold its report until December 2. The resolu tion will be brought, up tomorrow and the Bepublicaus will try to force tho senate to a definite expression of opin ion. Members of tho curroncy committoc had not decided tonight just what their att.it udo would be. The Democratic lead ers were confident the measure would receive support only from the Republi cans. Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, said ho did not boliove the senate should enact currenc' legislation, until it had full information and an opportunity to reach sound conclusions, but he probably will advocate a continuation of the extra I session until it can be. determined Whether thoro is a chanco of appropriate legislation in tho near future. The house currency committee com pleted work on tho "administration bill late today and authorized Chairman Glass to report the measure to tho house. It will go in Monday aud do bate probably will begin early in tho week. Representative Ragsdale, Democrat, one of the house committee "insur gents" made a final effort, to have tho timo limit on rediscountablo agricultural notes extended from 90 days to 120 days but was beaten by a vo'to of 0 to 7. He 'declined to romnin in the committoo meeting after this defeat. Robert P. Maddox, vice-president of the American National Bank of Atlanta, said country banks would oppose tho new plan vigorously unless the provi siou making all check's payable fat par" in tho regional reserve banks, was stricken from the bill. Goorge M. Reynolds and J. B. Forgan of Chicago also supported this idea. "Tho smaller banks often derive from $5,000 to $20,000 of their voarly In come from tho exchange colloctod on out of town checks," saxd Mr. Maddox. " Tf the new law should make all checks paya"ble at par in the resorve banks it would force all banks to stop charging exchange." The bankers recommonded that only checks drawn by member banks upon one of the regional Tcservc banks be accepted at par bv other banks. COAL TAR TRUST HAS COiPLOM LAW Combine Now Considered Legally Dissolved by Assist ant Attorney General. NEW YORK, Sopt. 4. Tho federal court here was notified today that the so-called coal tar trust had complied with its decree in the government dis solution suit, nnd the combine now is considered legally dissolved. Ex-Senator John O. Spooner, as attorney for the defendants, made the announce ment and Assistant Unitod States At torney General Calude Thompson, who had chargo of the case for the gov ernment, did not dispute his state ment. The dissolution decree ordered that contracts entered by members of the combine be reformed and tho sale of stock completed within six months.
