INSPECTING THE AEROPLANEB.

Wind Today Too Strong for Trials at
Rholms, Francs.
RHElMS. France. August 24.—A
black flag snapping from a. tall staff
over the committee tent in front of
the tribuaes facing the aerodrome, and
a signal that sdid. “The wind is over
ten meters a second." conveyed to the
thousands of persons who assembled
on the Bethcny held this morning for
the third day of aviation week.‘that
no nights would be possible until the
wind abated.
This was the day set for the visits
to the nerodrome of President Fab
ileres and a dozen special trains came
out from Paris. But owing to the un-
favorable woathor conditions, the
president and the members of the cabi-
net decided to postpone their visit un-
til later in the week.
When it was realised that no flying
would be attem fed a large crowd of
experts in avia ion visited the sheds
behind the tribuneg in which the ver-
ious aeroplanes are housed and the
morning was spent in discussing the
previous performances of the different
machines. The fact that there have
been no serious breakdowns or accl-
dentn even when the machines were
flying ill a wind of 26 miles an hour
and encountering didlcult eddies of
air. is regarded as ample proof that
the aeroplane already is a practical
and businesslike machine. whode fur-
ther development is only a questtoncf
time and money. The experts differ
as to the respective merits of biplane
and monoplane and the various types
of'machines in each class, but it 'is
unanimously held that the future of
aviation depends upon the perfection
of the mmor. The Gnome, a revolving.
self-cooling , motor developed titty
horse power and weighing only 150
pounds, employed by M. Buena~Varilla,
has attracted much favorahlt atten-
tion. The experts agree that the bi-
planes thus far have demonstrated
marked superiority. stability and pus-A
slblllty of control in a wind as com-
pared to the monoplane. No mono-
planes have ventured out except in it!»
solutely calm weather. The ,b llll'fit

to start before 5 o'clock in the after-
noon. gives Curt as much concern. as
the calm of even hg seldom setsln be-
