HHIE HiHE Proves Iisrssii to Be a Speed laurel, and Although Ilsnd- lers Wars Exhaustsd,'V Sits . liaaps the Motor Boat Trophy ln_Amercs ,y A scene and event of a lifetime was the motor boat race, yesterday, for the championship of the world, and which was won for the second time by on Am can beat, Dixie IL. in a race that rilling from start to finish. wIt was a victory magnificent in all Its details and conditions. The Wolseley. Sideley crossed the Atlantic with the reputation of being the fastest 40- foot motor best ever built, and she has been racing since April. The Dixie II. was one of two boats built with the patrl otle idea of defending the trophy only. and while the second of these craft was never in running condition, the Dixie II. has demonstrated that nothing equal to her has ever been constructed In wood and steel in the way of speed. Her owner. Mr, E. J. Schroeder. was also the owner of the Dixie l.. the boat that brought. the international trophy to this country. The start was to have been at 2: 30 o'cldck, and at that time the racers were under way, circling about waiting for the signal. their motors chugging in a restive way. each seeming to be impatient to be off. The helmsmsn, calm and passive. skilfully guided each craft In and out among the fleet of yachts. Capt. Pearch, shrouded In a rubber poncho. held the wheel on the Dixie IL, and under the hood was Albert Rap- pnhn looking after the wants of the motors. Neel M. Robbins, represent. lag the Duke of Westminster. held the wheel on the Wolseley-Slddeley. He was died In a yachting uniform and wore a yachting cap. For once his pipe was laid aside.

Thomas Coles formerly of Norwalk returned yesterday to his home in River street from his work In Dane bury. and soon after he arrived, he was treated with a tight with his brother, William Coles, which resulted In the arrest of them both. The case was in the town court, this morning, and Judge Lockwood contin ued it for two weeks charged with intoxication and breach of the peace, to which they pleaded not guilty. When they got to fighting, Thomas received a. bloody nose, and as the trouble occurred in the kitchen of the home, their mother. Mrs. Williams, be- came frightened. and sent for a police man. Captain Thomas Hunt went to the scene and placed both men under arrest. In court, this morning, Mrs Williams said that she did not know what the trouble started over. nor which one struck the first blow. She said she went between them to prevent them injuring one another She was asked what the trouble was and she said all she knew was that William declared that Thomas could not stay In the house. and Thomas said he should, and then the tight started. Prosecuting Attorney Tammany: "Did they strike each other more. than once?" Mrs. Williams:' "I could not see, they were all tangled up" Captain Hunt took the witness stand and stated that he was called and made the arrest. He heard Thomas say he would not stood for William strik- ing his mother. .Wllliam Coles testified that he never struck his mo er in his life. He said Themes came was going to stay there, and William told him he was not. Mrs. Williams said that Thomas could stay, but the light than occurred. William was ask- ed what his rusons were for not want- Ing Thomas there, and he finally stat ed that once before he was there, and he heard some talk In regard to his wife. Thomas said t he had a wife and child in Norwalk. they had desert~ ed him a Ion ti m. and he had been living In nbbl‘y since that time but came here ea ting to get work After some more lk they were al lowed to go in custody of Captain Hunt and the will name up again the 17th of this month GETS HID LEOINSE.

Until they Mirth Mlaauwel 'last night, a number of the members there was a plan on foot for the dis- banding of the company. The tire p0 lice are not numerically very strong. but. there was a roomful of active and non-active members on hand when It came time for last night's meeting. It developed, however, that only ten members present were entitled to vote. same of the members of the com- pany are not yet convinced that there has been an effortéto break up the or- ganization. A committee composed of Joseph Disesa, Thomas S. Donaldson and Frederick H. Booger was appoint- ed by the meeting to confer with the reporters, and find out where the infor< motion came from. Messrs. Donald- .son and Disesa called at The Sentinel otiice this morning on their mission. They did not believe, they declared. that an effort had been on foot to dis- rupt the company. and they wanted a denial made. Two other prominent members of the company stated this morning, that. there was absolutely no question that some of the members had intended to break the company up if possible. These members said that simmered down, It developed that most of those who were in the movement are mem- bers In arrears in dues. bers in this movement, it was declar- ed further, are not more than half a dozen in number. and it was their de- sire to wind up the affair, and have the company vote to use their fund for an outing. It was claimed that the disbanding proposition was dropped like a hot. potato, because the organis- ers of the movement got‘cold feet. Last night's meeting lasted from 8 o'clock until about 10:45. and several participating In the discussions be- came “hot under the collar." though everything ended quite happily. .

' CONSTANCE. Gemiany, Aug. 4.— Tlic weather was excellent this morn- ing. when at 6:30 o‘clock Count Zeppe- lin's great airship merged from the floating dock at b‘riedrlchshai’en. The airship arose immediately from the waters of the lake to a height of about four hundred feet and after describing one magnificent CII‘CIC over the lake, proceeded in a bee line for this city, arriving here at ll; 55 o'clock. The ship continued on Its way and within an- other hour had covered 45 kilometres and was over Schaffhausen. From that point it continued along the Rhine to Basic. Count Zeppeliu's plan is to coutlnu'e to Mayence along the ltblne and from there return to Metz, cross over to Stuttgart. and return. if the weather continues favorable, to k‘riedrlchshaien abdht 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. The day and the hour when the os- cent was to be made were kept secret until late last night, and not even the imperial commissioners who were to ifccompany the count on the voyage were present.~~ The only omcial tak ing part in the flight Is Major Grad nitz. Although the day and the hour of the ascent of the airship had been kept strictly secret, long before daylight to- day the streets of Friedrichshafen pre- sented a lively scene. for a long ex- perience with the doings of the men who sail the air had taught the natives that certain signs Were evidence of a forthcoming ascension. As a conse quence, the local inhabitants and their summer boarders were out in great numbers when the sun appeared. Count Zeppelin arrived at the Saab Ing dock at 4 o’clock. accompanied by his nephew. Dr. Ecker, a well-known yachtsman of Hamburg. and Major Gradnitz, the only ofllclal representa- tive. Neither the imperial commis- sioners nor the count's usual oiliclal suite nor the military motorists who intended to follow the flight. had been notified or Invited. it was reported that the count wished to make his great flight quietly and without cere- mony. Not the faintestcloud marred the beauty of the day. The surface of the lake was like a mirror and the dis tsnt Alpine giants stood our strong and: mighty In the clear atmosphere. At 6:15 the colossal body of the air ship emerged slowly from the floatv lng shed towed by three launches. Uh der the direction of Dr. Ecker. the pontoons were towed out from under- neath it and the airship hovered low over the surfwe of the lake. Then slowly the nose of the ship was raised to a higher level as though the huge monster, suffering for air, was striving for a higher level, to make breathing easier. The noise, of the propellers. like the beating of giant drums. drown- ed' all Voices save that of the count himself at whose command “Cast of: " she rose horisontallr to a height of about four hundred feet and then swept off In the direction of Constance.
