Members of English Team Selected for International
Races in This Country
(Special from United Press.)
London, July 12. Hon. Charles
Stewart Rolls, one of the foremost
English aviators, a millionaire and a
member of the gentry, who recently
flew from Dover to France and re
turn in a "Wright biplane, was killed
today by a fall of 40 feet from his
aeroplane.
Aviator A. U. Demars fell at the
same time and was seriously in
jured. Roll was competing for the alight
ing prize when his machine collapsed.
He was not at a great height, but
the wrecked machine and heavy mo
tor fell on top of him crushing out
life almost instantly.
The accident occurred directly in
front of the grand stand and was
witnessed by thousands of persons,
among whom there was a panic as
the lifeless body of the well known
aviator was extricated from the ruins
of his ship.
The accident is attributed by avia
tors who saw it to a breaking of the
tall piece of the aeroplane in which
Rolls was flying. The machine, be
yond the control of Captain Rolls,
;immediately plunged toward the
ground.turning repeated somersaults.
t The terrible fall began wrenching
the 6hip into pieces long before it
reached the ground and there des
cended a perfect hail storm of splint
ers. Captain Rolls struck the ground
first and the heavy motor of his ship,
torn loose from the framework, fell
upon him. He was dead when re
moved from the debris.,
- A pathetic sequel to the death of
Captain Rolls- occurred late this aft
ernoon when his father and mother,
Lord and Lady Llongattrock arrived
off Bournemouth in their yacht. As
they came ashore they upbraided
themselves for being too late to wit
ness the start of their son's flight,
which they knew had been set for -a
certain time. They hurried to a
waiting automobile, to rush to the
aviation field, in the hope of seeing
Captain Rolls befortfne -deffoended.
There they were met with the news
of his tragic death which they had
narrowly avoided -witnessing. Both
were prostrated and are under the
care of physicians.
Captain Rolls, who was the third
man to cross the English channel in
& heavier than air machine, was one
of the three members of the English
team . selected to go to the United
States in October to take part in the
international balloon race starting
from St. Louis in October and later
to take part In the international ship
contests on Long Island the same
month.

ORDER FOR 24 FOOT ROAI
Mayor Buckingham took steps this
Xiornlag t bring about the opening
f the Congress street bridge without
waiting for the settlement of the
question of whether Congress street
Is to be widened from Middle to
Main streets or where the trolley car
tracks are going to be located.
After a conference with the bridge
commission and Director Kenny of
the Public Works department it was
decided to build a short macadam
roadway, 24 ft. wide, on the west ap
proach to the bridge for temporary
use. Director Kenny ordered the
stone this morning and the work will
be rushed to completion so that the
bridge will probably be open within

SECRETARY MEYER
FIRES ANOTHER
BIG BOMBSHELL
Forces Retirement of Rear Ad
miral Capps in Cleaning Out
Construction Bureau
(Special from United Press.)
Washington, July 12. The forced re
tirement of Rear Admiral Washington
Lee Capps, chief constructor of the
Navy, the second official bombshell
exploded by Secretary Meyer within
two months is only the beginning
of a cleaning out of the Bureau of
Construction and Repairs, Just as the
resignation of Rear Admiral Rogers
was merely the beginning of the over
hauling of the personnel of the Bureau
of Supplies and Accounts.
These two bureaus have been the
citadels of the staff officers in the
controversy with the line officers for
many years. Subordinate officers of
the Construction Corps are on the
anxious seat today waiting to see what
will become of them. It is certain
that several of Admiral Capps' chief
henchmen, Assistant Naval Construc
tors of the Bureau at the Department,
will receive orders within the next
few days which will send them to
posts so far removed from headquar
ters that they will be unable to con
tinue the staff fight.
Secretary Meyer holds that the new
constructor must have a free hand to
conduct his bureau successfully and

pany holding the patent rights on
the Wright machine.
Captain Roils was the third son of
Lord Llangattrock. He was Dorn m
London on August 27, 1877 and edu
cated at Eton and Trinity.Cambridge.
His liking for sports started in school
where he joined the Eton Volunteer
Battalion and was a member of the
Cambridge Bicycling team.
As the younger son of a lord he
was intended for the diplomatic ter
vice but his taste ran toward me
chanical and scientific pursuits and
he was allowed to specialize in en
gineering, graduating from .Trinity in
1898.
Rolls was a pioneer of automobil
lng in England, introducing a motor
car therein in 1898. He soon became
familiar as a daring automobilist in
races both in England, and on the
continent and was awarded a gold
medal for his driving in the 1,000
mile race in 1900. He drove in the
famous Paris-Madrid, Paris-Berlin
and Paris-Vienna jraces and was Eng
land's representative in the Gordon
Bennett race in 1905. He held sev
eral records- for speed driving, break
ing the Monte Carlo to London rec
ord inl906. .
Then Rolls went in for ballooning
and was soon a licensed pilot. He
made 160 balloon ascensions and won
the French Aero Club's medal for
the longest balloon flight in 1906 from
Par's to Shelbourne, Norfolk, Eng
land. xvolls was a cultured man and a
noted author on scientific matters.
He was a Fellow of the Royal
Geographical Society, a Fellow of the
Royal Meteorological Society, Captain
of the London Section of the Army
Motor, Reserve and the managing di
rector of Rolls-Royce Ltd., one of
the largest, manufacturing companies
of motor cars in England. He was
a member of the Marlborough, Jun
ior Carlton, Royal Automobile, Aero
Club, of England and the Aero Club
of France. .
Rftlls most noted fiight was made
on June 2, of this year, when he
made the first round trip over the
English Channel. Louis Bleriot and
Count Jacques de Lesseps had each
made one way trips. .Rolls left Dov
er, England at 6:30 p. m. and flew
across the Channel to Sangatte,
France, reaching there at 7:15. He
circled over the town twice, dropping
several notes to friends and then
without alighting started back to
England, flying -around Dover castle
and landing at 8:05. He had been
in the air one hour and 85 minutes
and had flown a total distance of
fifty miles. For this he won the
Ruinart prize of $2,700.

permanent pavement is laid.
The granite block pavement has
been laid on the west approach for a
distance of 200 ft., from the draw
bridge to a point where there will be
a curve in the proposed trolley tracks.
The mayor's object in getting the
bridge open to travel before the set
tlement of the trolley situation,
which depends upon the widening of
Congress street, was not alone to give
the public the use of the bridge and
get the strain of travel off the Strat
ford avenue and East Washington
avenue bridges, but to make it possi
ble to repave1 Stratford avenue this
sommer.
As soon as the new bridge is open

commenced.
the possibility of opposition for as
sistant constructors, who espoused the
fight of Admiral Capps against the
Meyer plan of re-organization will be
removed by putting these officers in
places where their hands will be tied
The successor to Admiral Capps has
been chosen but announcement will
not be made of his appointment for
several weeks.
Rear Admirals Capps and Rogers
were the only, two high ranking offi
cials who championed the staff cause
in the line and staff fight. Unless
Congress chooses to revive the matter
at the next session, it is believed that
the fight will end for want of lead
ership. The other staff bureaus, yards and
docks and medicine and surgery, has
been placed in charge of men who are
sympathetic with the Meyer plan.

DROSS FROM METAL
CAUSES OIL SOAKED
TIMBERS TO BLAZE
Through the vigilance of a watch
man in the Pembroke Foundry, Bar
num avenue and Hallett street, a
blaze that threatened the place at 10
o'clock last night was prevented, it
was thought at first that the fire was
of incendiary origin.
When he had dashed a pail of water
on the blaze, the watchman detected
the odor of burning oil, and examining
the woodwork found it soaked with
kerosene. Today an investigation
was made by Detective Cronan. He
found that a bottle showing traces of
long exposure had been broken against
the building, and that the oil appear
ed to have been soaked in the wood
for a long time. The fire was found
to have originated from dross taken
from molten metal last night and
thrown into the corner near the oil
soaked timbers.
CIGARETTE CAUSES FIRE.
A lighted cigarette butt dropped
from the window of a tenement set
fire to the awning of a dry goods store
at 772 Pembroke street this morning.
The fire department was called by
an alarm from box JS12, and extin
guished the fire before It had ignited
the building.
was dismissed by the board.
The Southern railroad is the local
branch of the Grand Trunk railway
and its petition Is approved by the
board because it secures to the peo
ple of Massachusetts as well of Rhode
Island additional transportation facil
ities by a through line to and from
the north and west.
It is held to be a better proposition
than that offered by the New Haven
because the latter . road presented
plans only for connecting with the
Grand Trunk system. "

cannot refrain from poking a bit of
fun at the good natured inspector.
Last week Lynch received a tele
phone from the neighborhood com
plaining of offensive odors. It was
reported that a small boy was seen
to throw a dead cat down a sewer
well. Lynch set out to get to the
seat of the trouble.
He uncovered the sewer well, and
sought in vain for the remains of the
departed feline. Not even a ghost
of the deceased could be seen through
the darkness. But -Lynch, whose ol
factory organ is trained by long ex
perience to detect all sorts of odors,
sniffed the atmosphere, then with an
air of conviction entered a neighbor
ing market.
When he emerged, he smiled with
satisfaction. "You'll have no more
trouble now," said he. The market
man had been pouring brine down
the sewer well, and the warmth of
the last few days had caused the
odors to disseminate. Today Lynch
took a turn through the East End
and said the fragrance was really de
lightful. COUNTERFEITER BOUND

Refusing to await the appearance of
Attorney Henry Stoddard, who over
slept this morning, Judge Foster would
brook no delay when the Stoddards'
chauffeur, J. M. Cowperthwalt, was
arraigned in the City court for violat
lng the automobile law.

costs, amounting in all to $30.86.

pleted but Cowperthwait's, when Pros
ecutor Redden informed the court he
expected Attorney Stoddard to appear
for Cowperthwalt. "I don't feel like
going ahead until Mr. Stoddard ap
pears " began Redden.
"Why not?" Interrupted the court,
impatient at the delay.
Cowperthwait was promptly put .to
plea. He said he was not guilty.
Motorcycle Policeman Clifford Gor-
gas testified that he had pursued
Cowperthwait through Fairfield avenue
at a rate of nearly a mile a minute,
but couldn't overtake him as he sped
out to the Bridgeport Yacht club. On
the return he said he took up the
chase, and his speedometer registered
40 miles per hour from Brewster street

ness. He was summoned by Gorgas,
and he told of the workmen running
to avoid the chauffeur.
Cowperthwait denied making such
6peed. "
He admitted driving on the left side
of Fairfield avenue, excusing himself
on the ground that the street was not
in good condition on the other side.
As for endangering the workmen, he
said he was going at about 10 miles
an hour. There were no other pedes
trians "anywhere on the street.

is on the dangerous list at the Brock
ton hospital with a knife wound in
his throat that severed his Adam's
apple and incised his windpipe in an
attempt at suicide while crazed with
the heat. He suffered a slight sun

gurgling effort to talk, fell prostrate
on his face in the grass, then crawled
to the roadside and tried to write with
a stone in the sand making "Bro"

trying to indicate he belonged in
Brockton. The police in an auto with
Dr. A. D. Paine, rushed him to the

CRUCIAL STAGE REACH
FIGHT FOR W
AND COW
Revolution Threatens England in Event Shackleton Con
ciliation Bill, Granting Ballot to Women, is
Killed Tonight
(Special from United Press.)
London, July 12. The fight for wom
an suffrage in England has reached
the crucial stage and the police au
thorities are gravely making elaborate
preparations to put down- disorder in
the event the House of Commons to
night kills the Shackleton conciliation
bill, granting the ballot to women.
The threat of the militant suffra
gettes to start a revolution if the bill
is defeated is accepted seriously by
the police, who remember former
semi-revolutionary tactics of the wom
en when they "Rushed" the House
and demanded the right to iee the
King.
The authorities are massing as many
policemen as possible in the vicinity
of the House of Parliament, ordering
them to put down trouble with a firm
hand, but to use no more violence
than Is necessary in subduing the
women. Householders In the vicinity
of Parliament, believing that the
threatened revolution will be the worst
yet attempted by the suffragettes, are
barring their gates and placing wood
en shutters over their windows, to
save them from sticks and stones.
That the situation will grow turbu
lent If the enfranchisement bill Is
voted down and that the suffragettes
will have many male supporters. The
police feel It to be their duty to put
down disorder and yet the use of vio
lence against the women, many of
whom are members of the gentry,
would be sure to cause an upheaval
in England. To force the police to
use untoward violence would, accord
ing to politicians, be a great feather
In the caps of the women, giving them
a battle cry that their "brutal oppon
ents" had resorted to striking "de
fenseless women."
A great crowd is expected in the vi
cinity of the House tonight when the
ROOSEVELT GREETS
TWO ANARCHIST
FRIENDS TODAY
(Special from United Press.)
New York, July 12. When Colonel
Roosevelt arrived at his offices in
the Outlook building today he found
CHf f ord Pinchot and Marshall S.
Stimpson, - president of the Lincoln
Roosevelt league of Los Angeles, wait
ing there for him.
"Well, well, here are my two anar
chistic friends again," he shouted,
grasping them by the hand and "pump
handling" them warmly. He drew
both into his office where they made
an extended visit. Stimpson wants the
Colonel to make a trip to the Paci
fic coast next fall.
It was announced that Herbert Knox
Smith, commissioner of corporations,
would visit the Colonel this afternoon.
Congressman William S. Bennett of
this city and Charles N. Fowler of
New Jersey, met in the elevator en
route to the Colonel's. When the New
Yorker who called to discuss his gub
ernatorial boom with Roosevelt saw
his colleague approaching he said:
"Well, here comes a real insurgent."
"That's what I am," snapped Fowl
er, "but what are you doing here?
Do you want to get near the throno
too?"
The laugh was on Bennett who did
not appear very mwsh ploased over
Fowler's caustic wit.
