ACCIDENT OCCURS AT TESTING.
New York City, Nov. 22. Disclosure of the successful teat-i ing out of new long-distance spoed boat came to-day almost simultaneously with an accident which may put the craft out of commission for some time.
The vessel is of the torpedo speed-boat type. It was designed by P. O. Hannes, well known plane dealgnor.
On Sunday, it was revealed to day, Mra, William B. Leeds piloted the craft at a speed of sixty-three miles an hour with twenty passen- gers aboard at Cold Springs Har- Announcement was made that those interested in the craft intend- ed to send the "Fantail," as it is called, to San Francisco to race to Honolulu in an effort to break existing speed records some time during the winter or next spring.
Shortly after this announcement, however, the "Fantail" hit a log while speeding in Long Island Sound. Some damage wLS done. It will require extensive inspection to determine exactly how severe the damage was.—United Press.

It has been suspected that the object of constructing the port is to check the forward policy of Japan in Manchuria and Mongo lia. If the port is improved as planned, it will clearly become a formidable rival to Dairen, and the plan is regarded consequently as an obstacle to the Sino-Japan ose negotiations in regard to Manchuria and Mongolia.
