MAJ. O'ROURKE INVENTS MILITARY AEROPLANE Army Officer's New Flying Machine Expected to Revolutionize Aviation. TRIAL ON PLUM ISLAND. Rudderless, Automatically Balanced, Constructed of a New Metal and Prophetic of Wireless Control. Major John F.

O'Rourke, on the staff of General David E. Austen, chief of Coast Artilley, N. G. is soon going to try out on the military reservation at Plum Island a new aeroplane, invented, patented and constructed by himself. In this machine he has applied certain principles mechanics never before used in any aeroplane, which, he believes, will revolutionize heavier-than-air machines.

Furthermore, Major 0'Rourke declares that in his machine there have been found the beginnings of the aeroplane which can be operated from the earth by wireless control. Apart from his military associations Major O'Rourke is well known in private Ilfe as an expert engineer, caisson and bridge constructor, and he has more than one patent on ingenious devices that have spelled progress in engineering work. For this reason his 'assertions about his new aeroplane will meet less skepticism than if they came from a novice. He has been interested in aeroplanes from the first, and is prominently associated as charter member and officer with some of the leading aeronautical societies. Owing to his active association with milItary men and his keen interest in all things military.

he began to speculate about the possibility of constructing all aeroplane more practical for war purposes than those now in use. It is as result of this speculation that finally evolved the machine which, at the end of two more weeks, will be ready for the trial flights. What Major O'Rourke has done is to eliminate entirely the vertical rudder, patented by the Wright brothers. the use of which got Curtiss, Paulhan and others: into trouble. "The only purpose of the rudder." he explained to an Eagle reporter yesterovercome a defect.

Eliminate the defect and you don't need the rudder. "The great diffculty with the aeroplanes we now have is to keep them properly balanced in the air. Variable air currents and changes in speed cause the machine to tilt rapidly in the direetion opposed to the increased pressure. It is to the overcoming of these sudden uncontrolled changes of balance and direction that the aeroplane builder's ingenuity must be directed." Automatic Adjustment. "Nov instead of using levers and wires for pulling at the supplementary lateral planes commonly known as the allerons and using a rudder to counteract them, I have tried to apply quite a different principle, By the tee of a seat that slides vertically as well as horizontally and connecting this by means of steel tubing and bell cranks with the lateral ailerons and the movable wings fore and aft I have secured practically automatic gravitational adjustment by which every movement of the machine may be Major O'Rourke's aeroplane is being built in the Seabury boat yards up on Morris Hei: It 1S practically com- PETIT -Fell asleep, June 1, 1010.

I pleted except for the motor and is probably the best constructed heavier than air machine yet turned out, for no pense has been spared to get the very best materials for every part. In general outline appearance it is very much like a Curtis bi-plane, but the experienced eye will at once detect the radical difference 111 the aileron and wing control.

The adjustable sliding seat is very ingenious. hangs from two steel tubes and other connecting tubes. and cranks attach to it the front and rear wings. The connections were not all completed yesterday, but as the seat was moved forward the forward wing, was lifted and when pulled back it dropped. By a similar adjustment the tail wing will move correspondingly.

The lateral connection, with the supplementary planes or ailerons that are adjusted between the two main surfaces of the bi-plane is even more ingenious. The seat swings to the right and left of the center for a distance of more than a foot. As it shifts the steel tube and bell crank connections move the ailerons. up and down. One feature peculiar to the 0'Rourke bi-plane is the pilot's complete control of these lateral tips.

He can set them any way he pleases, move them both together or in opposite directions, and by the aid of the automatic seat adjustment they adapt their position to the tilt of the machine without the pilot's having touched a single lever. Will 11 Carry Two Passengers. If this principle of automatic gravitational adjustment of balance by use of the sliding seat connetions works out in practice it will mean a wonderful step In advance. The 0'Rourke machine is designed to carry two passengers, a pilot and a mechanic, and the movements of the latter in looking after the motor would not interfere with the aeroplane's balance. The presence of a mechanic would make the pilot's burden much lighter, with the further possibility of motor repairs in flight.

Despite the presence of additional tubling the machine will weigh only a little over 800 pounds, motor and all. The planes without covering weigh 157 pounds, the other auxiliary elevators, tips. outriggers, wheels and tubing total 250 pounds, while the motor and engine equipment will weigh 400. The main frame top plan is 42 feet long and the wings give an additional length of five feet. The supporting planes are 32 feet long.

The vertical length from tip to tip is 35 feet. The planes are five 'feet wide, with an overhang of fifteen inches. A 40-horse power French motor has been imported by Major O'Rourke and is 110 being tested and prepared for installation. There are a number of minor novel points about this aeroplane that will attract the attention of aviators. A new metal, combining strength and lightness to a degree hitherto unknown has been used for connections and elsewhere.

Three and five strips of clear spruce have been glued together to form each piece of the frame in such a way that a split can run for only a little distance. A new kind of water and weatherproct linen cloth that combines lightness ani durability has been used for the covering. This cloth is laced to the frame by An ingenious method so that a tear can run for only a short distance. O'Rourke has applied throuzh the regular military channels for permis- sion to use the Plum Island military reservation and feels confident that it will be granted. Plum Island has a large parade ground and a three- mile stretch of open country admirably adapted for aeroplane experiments.

In about ten days more the aeroplane will be loaded on Major O'Rourke's larze motor boat and taken to Plum Island by way of the Sound. The major says that he is getting lots of applications from enthusiastic Ayers who want to pilot his machine, but he has picked out a couple of expert Frenchmen and Americans who have studied aeronautics to make the first experiments. JUNE BRIDE A RUNAWAY Schwab's Niece Steals Away From Bryn Mawr to Marry. Miss Mock Weds Manager of Pittsburg Coal Company--Two Ceremonies Performed. Publicity was given to-day to a picturesque wedding which was performed 111 Brooklyn at an early hour yesterday morning while a majority of the residents of this borough were fast asleep.

The principals were Miss Eurania Dinkey Mock of Philadelphia, a niece of Mrs. Charles M. Schwab, and Titus de Bobula, an architect and manager of a large Pittsburg coal and cole company. The ceremony was concluded at exactly 12:02 A.M., making Miss Mock the first June bride of the season. Confirmation of the marriage and its romantic incidents wag secured yesterday at the Hotel Knickerbocker in Manhattan, where the couple are stopping preparatory to going to Europe, but the reason for it is still to be learned.

All that is known is that Miss Mock. who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Mock of the Pennsylvania city. was, up to 5:30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, at Bryn Mawr College, where she was a student for four years.

At that hour, however, she quietly left the college in company with two fellow students. Miss Mary Hume of Des Moines, and Miss Christine Depew of Delano. 3, and boarded a train fo: New York City. On their arrival in Manhattan they went direct to the home of a friend in Seventy-fifth street, where there were awaiting them Mr. de Bobula, the Rev.

Paulovita of Brooklyn, a Jesuit priest, who was formerly Mr. de Bobula's tutor in Kalocsa, Hungary; the Rev. A. Dzubay and the president of the coal and coke company with which Mr. De Bobula is identified.

The entire party entered two automobiles and sped across the bridge to this borough, arriving at their destination midnight. Two minutes later Miss Mock and Mr. de Bobula were man and wife, the Rev. Fr. Paulovita performing the ceremony.

Then the automobiles were turned around and a dash was made through the deserted streets to Hoboker, where a second marriage was performed by a sleepy justice of the peace, who was routed out of his slumbers to tie the knot. This second marriage was deemed necessary because it was too late to get a license here, and because the bride was a Protestant. Then the newly-married couple went to the Hotel Knickerbocker, arriving there at 4 A.M., thoroughly tired but blissfully happy. Later, T. A.

Sprague, general superintendent of the Gates Coal and Coke Company of Pittsburg, which is the concern of which Mr. de Bobula is the manager, made a statement in behalf of the bride and bridegroom, stating that Mr. de Bobula was the son of the late John de Bobula of Budapest, Hungary, a former member of the Hungarian Senate and an architect by profession. The elder de Bobula, it is said, designed the Parlimentary house at Budapest. The bridegroom.

Mr. Sprague sald, came to this country eleven years ago, and is 31 years old. It was also explained that Miss Mock and Mr. de Bobula had been engaged for six months, and that the marriage was to have been performed in June. What made them suddenly decide to run away and be united was not explained, save it was A.

disinclination 10 go through an elaborate ceremony, or that sudden opposition to the match developed on the part of the bride's parents, At noon yesterday Mrs. de Bobula sent a message to her parents in Philadelphia reading as follows: "Mrs. John Mock. 4512 Walnut street. Philadel Happily married.

702 Fulton St. 138 Reid Ave. MOVING PICTURE MEN BEAT UNION LEAGUE CLUB Mayor Gaynor Directs That License Be Issued for Show on Bedford Avenue. SHOW BITTERLY OPPOSED. Residents in the Neighborhood Said It Would Injure Character of the Community.

The Bureau of Licenses has decided to grant the application of John A. nolds a to conduct an open air moving picture show in the vacant lot on Bedford avenue, opposite the Union League Club. Representatives from the Mayor's office made a thorough investigation of the site chosen for the show and came to the conclusion that the arguments of the opposition did not show a good reason why the application should be denied. The license to Reynolds will be granted as soon as the Fire, and Building departments have passed on the place. Undoubtedly the decision of the license Bureau will be a big surprise to the members of the Union League Club and the hundreds property owners living in the vicinity the proposed amusement resort, who vigorously opposed Reynolds' application for a license.

The opposition was led by General George A. Wingate, Frederick C. Buys adn other representatives of property owners and civic organizations. They pointed out that the location of a moving picture show at that point would bring an undesirable class of people into the neighborhood and that the value of property in the community would be seriously depreciated in value. The local deputy chief of the License Bureau gave a public hearing on the application at which General Wingate and those associated with him in opposition to the license presented their arguments.

Deputy Chief Bracken did not care to take the responsibility of passing on the application and he submitted a cony of the arguments in opposition to the application as well as the reply of Reynolds' attorneys to his superiors in Manhattan. Mayor Gaynor directed the Manhattan officials to make a personal investigation. They found that the moving picture show would be given behind a big bill board inclosure in a large vacant lot. fronting on Bedford avenue, between Dean and Bergen streets. The entrance is to be on Bergen street.

The show itself will only take a small space of the vacant lot. and accommodations will be provided for not more than 400 people at the most. After looking over the ground the Mayor's representative could not find a single reason to sustain the objection of the opponents to the application. Furthermore, he could not understand why people who live on St. Mark's avenue could offer a logical jection to the proposed site.

It is understood that this is the report he filed with the Mayor, and that the latter agreed that under those conditions there was no justification for the denial of the license. There is another application for a license for an open moving picture show, filed by the Albany Parkway Amusement Company, pending before the License Bureau. The officers of this company are given as Henry Horowitz of 62 Montague street. president, and William W. Sanders of 1155 St.

Mark's avenue, treasurer. They wish to locate their show in an open lot at Albany avenue and the Eastern Parkway Boulevard. The application is being vigorously opposed by the property owners in the neighborhood, who set up the claim that the proposed show will seriously affect property values. Deputy Chief Bracken gave a public hearing, at which these objections were a presented. A brief against the application was fled by Manasseh Miller.

He also fled a petition containing the names of 100 protesting property owners. Bracken referred the application to the officials in Manhattan, with the recommendation that the application be denied. As yet they have taken no application on the recommendation. W. B.

CUTTING IN AUTO CRASH His Car and Another Collide Head On at Oakdale. Father Heffernan of Sayville Has Fractured Leg as Result of Collision. Mr. Cutting and Son Unhurt. (Special to The Eagle.) Sayville, June 2-W.

Bayard Cutting and his son. while riding along the South Country road, in Oakdale. yesterday afternoon in their automobile, collided with another car going in the opposite direction. In the latter vehicle were three Catholic priests, respectively the Rev. Father M.

P. Heffernan and his assistant, the Rev. Mr. Welsher of St. Lawrence's R.

C. Church at Sayville, and the Rev. Father Cullen of Manhattan. Father Heffernan was thrown out and sustained a fracture of his right leg and an injury to his left one. He was attended by Dr.

Charles F. Merritt of Sayville. The other occupants of the car escaped serious injury. Mr. Cutting and his son were unhurt beyond the shock, but in view of the fact that both cars were partly wrecked it is considered almost a miracle that both the Cuttings and the three priests were not killed outright or fatally hurt.

The clergymen were returning from a visit to the Catholic Academy at Brentwood. The steering gear of the priests' car broke at the turn of the road near the Cutting crossing of the Long Island Railroad. The car was rented from a Sayville garage and wAs driven by Thomas Wheeler, a careful driver. A passing auto brought the Sayville party home, when Father Heffernan was taken to the rectory, where he is doing as well as can be expected. He is very popular with his ers and the local public in general, and much sympathy is expressed for him.

When the cars came together the three priests and their chauffeur were thrown out upon the road. Mr. Cutting and his son were bumped forward until their chests struck the forward seat with great force. Then they were thrown back against the seats. The chauffeur of the car was jammed against his wheel, and the jolt bent slightly the long cylinder inclosing the steering bar.

The elder Cutting jumped from the car and ran to the assistance of the priests Two of them, Father Welsher Father Cullen, recovered quickly and went to the assistance of their colleague, who was lying on the ground, groaning. A carriage came up at that moment and the driver proffered his assistance, SO the two priests helped their injured associate in and then drove to Dr. Merritt's home. When he saw that the priest required little of his assistance Mr. Cutting went back to his car and found that his son had fainted.

The young man has been in poor health for a long time and cut his course at Harvard to get home early to his Long Island home. His father had taken him for a drive to benefit his health. He took the lad In his arms and urged his driver to make the best speed possible to their home, a halt a mile away. The hood of the car had been smashed and the steering gear bent, but the machine was able to travel and within A few minutes young Cutting was in bed and a physician had been called. GAYNOR FAVORS SPEEDWAY FOR USE OF HORSEMEN Announces He Will Sign Bill Restricting One Mile of Ocean Parkway Boulevard.

ROASTS THE "They Think They Own the Whole Earth," Says Mayor, as He Closes Hearing. Mayor Gaynor announced at the public hearing that he would sign the bill restricting Ocean Parkway between Twenty- -second avenue and King's Highway for use of the horsemen. Automobile interests and clubs made a vigorous stand against the bill, but their arguments had no effect on Mayor. He plainly indicated that they were selfish in opposing measure and that he could see no harm in restricting one mile of a five mile boulevard for people who love to drive fast trotting horses. The horsemen who favored the bill were not even compelled to present their arguments.

The Mayor just heard the opposition and then briefly terminated the hearing by making the following announcement: "I intend to sign this. It is a slight concession to the people who own horses. In the meantime the city expects to have another speedway. You automobile people an exclusive spirit about this in some other matters." manifest, James Shevlin, the lieutenant of the late Hugh McLaughlin, the Democratic leader of Brooklyn, was the champion of the horsemen. Mr.

Shevlin, during the hearing, interrupted the speakers for the automobile interests several times to show that they were making mis-statements of facts. Once the argument between Mr. Shevlin and an opponent of the bill waxed SO warm that the Mayor warned the two that an acrimonious discussion was unnecessary. The first speaker to oppose the bill was a representative of the New York Automobile Trades Association. He said that the bill, if enacted into a law, would work a great hardship not only on the automobile owners, but the automobile interests as well.

He said that 40.000 automobiles were owned and operated in New York City. The people who drive fast horses represent just one per cent. of the auotmobile owners. Three weeks ago, he said. a count was made of the vehicles using the Ocean Parkway Boulevard.

Fourteen per cent. represent light vehicles drawn by horses. The remaining 86 per cent. were automobiles. He also pointed out that eles drawn by horses only seated two persons, while automobiles seated four.

six and seven people. For those reasons, he said, it would be unfair to place any restriction 011 a public highway like Ocean Parkway Boulevard. The speaker then began to argue tha: the abutting property owners were entitled to some consideration. Mayor Answers Tartly. was against the speedway.

Didn't Like the "Us." "That is a matter which concerns the abutting property owners and not tartly replied the mayor. Mr. Shevlin then spoke up and told the speaker that he had neglected to point out that the bill gave the local authorities the power to regulate the use of the restricted zone of the boulevard. "New York and Kings County," sail Mr. Shevlin, "are the tw counties in the state where this power to regulate 1S not vested in the local authorities." Herbert Andrews, representing the Long Island Automobile Club, was the next speaker in opposition to the bill.

He had hardly begun his speech when the Mayor interrupted him. "You automobile people ought to be a little more generous," said the mayor. "This is a matter of setting aside a mile of the boulevard for the speeding of horses. There is no speedway in Kings County. You people have been pretty well taken care.

of. You can't have Despite this setback. Mr. Andrews continued with his argument. He said that the horse owners have had the privilege of speeding their horses for the last year.

He said that the automobiles have often been restricted to the side of the roadway when the horsemen desired to engage in speeding the contests. speaker The said, bill before the mayor, was to give horsemen the exclusive use of a portion of the boulevard and that is what the automobile interests opposed. "The proposition is not to do any such thing." interrupted the Mayor. The restriction, Mr. Andrews said, would shunt the automobiles into a roadway which is just like the neck of a bottle.

"I never saw the neck of a bottle there replied the Mayor. "and I have been down there a good many times." Mr. Andrews pointed out the danger which would ensue if the automobiles were compelled to use the side roadways which are now being used by heavy truck automobiles and sight-eseing machines. He said that Bay Parkway would prove a better speedway for the horsemen. He said that the restriction would mar the oniy straight highway which the people had to reach Coney Island.

He said that the sentiment of the people in Brooklyn The Mayor took exception to the use of the pronoun "us." He said there were other people beside "us" who were interested in the bill pending before him. Dr. George W. Brush of the Brooklyn League also asked the Mayor to veto the bill. Mr.

Shevlin asked him if he had lead the bill. Dr. Brush said that he had read part of it. "Do you know." continued Mr. Shevlin, the local authorities have the power to regulate the use of the speedway? I presume you have confdence in the Mayor and his appointees." "We object because the park commisstoner is a political appointee," replied Dr.

Brush. "On those grounds influence might be brought to bear upon him at any time." A speaker who said that he represented larrge property interests on the Ocean boulevard declared that the dust raised by horses and automobiles made it impossible for him to sit on his veranda at times. The boulevard in the winter time when the ground froze. he said, was like the Alps. He could go neither forward not backward.

It was then that the mayor made the announcement that he intended to sign the bill.
