BY SECOND FAILURE

Scientist Holds LaunchingDevice Responsible

ANOTHER TRIAL SPRING

Buzzard a Complete Wreck is Resultof Experiment Near Arsesal-

f Last Evening

Despite two failures of his aerodromeProf Langley cannot persuade himselfthat the machine is not alt right andwould navigate the air if the launchingapparatus could be made work prop-erly

As in the first test two months agoat Wldewater the Inventor ascribesyesterdays failure entirely to a defectin the launching device Just what thedefect Is he declines to say He hasnot abandoned hope and although therewill be no more tests for the present Itis likely that experiments will b resumed next spring Nearly 5100060 hasalready been spent on the Invention

No more complete fttUtfreV to the un-scientific eye than the attempt at flightupon the part of the langley Buzzardin front of the arsenal couklbe Imagined Instead of Roaring gracefully around Washington and astonish-ing the natives the bird plunged downward and struck the water less thantwenty yards from the Ark fromwhich iMiad been launched

Surprise is expressed that the wingsdid not support the machine longerThey appeared to fall utterly In theirmission of holding the body In the airand It sailed little farther than wouldany other object of the seine weightwhich had received the Initial im-pulse from the top of the ark
