Loewenstein From Cross Channel Plane Belgian Financier! Believed car London, to Brussels, when the «to Have Stepped Out of Wrong Door of Compart- ment -- Valet and Sten. ographers Present But , Did Not Notice Incident | y--Absence Unnoticed Un- Ail Plane Reached Brus "pels don, July 4.--C in Al- fred Loewenstein, Belgi®h finan- Mer, whose fame was world-wide, was drowned early today in one of the strangest fatalities in the Bistory of commercial aviation. The plane in which he was a pas- Jenger was crossing from Crovdon, financier disappeared. His valet and two stenograph- ers, as well as the pilot and mech- anic of the plane, were present, but did not notice the incident, and it was not until arrival at Brus- sels that it was learned that Cap- tain Loewenstein was gone. The British Air Ministry an- nounced he had been drowned. It was assumed that Captain Loewenstein had opened the wrong door from his compartment and fallen into the sea. The plane landed on the beach west of Dunkirk, France, at 8 p.m. The pilot informed the authorities that while the plane was crossing the sea Captain Loewenstein open- ed the wrong door and fell out. Faith in Air Travel Loewenstein had an unshakable his transportation. fath in the aeroplane. On a recent visit to Toronto he said that he felt much safer in the air than on a train. "And, then, from a plans," he said, "one can see as much in a few weeks as he could see in three months from a train." With the railways "too slow" for him, he demanded, and got. the latest wrinkles in aviation for He flew into Toronto from Montreal, .and flew out again for New York. Flying, he stressed repeatedly was the only efficient method of getting about. "In a few years," he said while in Toronto, "nearly every business man will have his own aeroplane. Years ago people were very dub- fous about steam-boats and cars, but they have now replaced the old stage-coach and the horse and rig. As certain as I'm speaking to you now, the aeroplane will in turn take the place of the boats and automobiles." Praise for Toronto On leaving Toronto the last time the great Belgian capitalist expressed the regret that his time had been altogether too short to sea 'the beautiful city" as he would like to have seem it, "But I ex- pect to be back shortly," he said, confidently, "and I'll come flying." Flying was to him, local ac- quaintances say, almost as big a thing as the financial game, which had earned for him the title of the third richest man in the world. He took a very personal interest in the ships in which he flew, and new gadgets on a machine absorbed his attention, it is said, just as quickly as some new company in which he sought what he would term "adequate representation," or some big financial coup that re- quired all his boasted resourceful- ake Good Clothes EasyToHawve Cg a pow J " v OU can walk into our store--deposit a dollar or two and walk , & out with a fine dress, coat or suit, Thus you have the clothes i (you want to wear and enjoy immediately, and yet may take months Jto pay for them.

Now he is dead--and he died, so to speak, in a machine that could outstrip the fastest train in speed, and was twice as safe, to his way of thinking. Interested im Brazilian Loewenstein visited Toronto for the purpose, he stated, of pressing claims of certan bondholders of Rio de Janeiro Tramways, sub- sequently taken over by Brazilian Traction, Light, Heat and Power Company. He 'visited Brazilian di- rectors while here. He said he was impressed by To- ronto and Canadian possibilties. Alfred Loewenstein, wealthy fin- ancier, who, despatches say, was killed in a fall from an aeroplane today, narrowly escaped death from an aeroplane propeller when he was in the United States earlier this year. Jaa He agrivel there in iApril To make trips around Canada and the United States on business and brought a giant tili-motored Fokker to travel in, having brought his personal pilot with him from abroad. He was overcome by the publicity his action caused and became exceedingly "camera shy." At ona stopping place he tried to slip away from photographers as he alighted from his plane and walked directly between two of the propellers. He left for Europe on May 18, saying that he would return here in October. Belgium's Richest Man Loewenstein was Belgium's rich- est man, and in some quarters it is thought that he was the richest man in the world. The size of His fortune is not known, but its mag- nitude is indicated by the fact that in 1026 he offered his Govern- ment the free loan of $50,000,000 for two years. Several years ago $450,000 worth of jewels were stolen from his villa in Biarrittz, and European operatives came | here in the hope of tracing the thieves, Baseball Leaders National League Batting--Hornsby, Braves, .391, Runs--Bottomley, Cardinals, y " ob- Runs batted in--Bissonette, ins, 70. ; Hits--Douthit, Cardinals, 114.

CRICKET NOTES St. George's played Mimico at Mimico on Saturday, and although they lost, they gave the champi- ons quite a shock, the hoys of the Toronto suburb barely managing to win by the skin of their teeth. St, George's hatted first and scored 89, each player contributing to the score. When Mimico came to bat, they were forced to fight for all their runs. The. fielding of the church boys was excellent, especial- ly that of Bob Diamond, who ex- celled himself on several occasions and saved a goodly number of runs. His quickness was instrumental in rupning one player out, W. Jack- son was bothered by an injured leg during the game, but even this didn't stop him from making a wonderful eatch in the long field. Phillipe, Menich and Hodgkinson bowled well throughout and with a bit of luck may have turned the issue. It was left to the last bats- man to win the game for Mimico, 3 runs being required when he came in, St. George's were without their captain and best batsman, Fred Larmouth, so they indeéd have ev- ery reason to be proud of their per- formance. They play St. Edmunds of Toronto at Lakeview Park on Saturday, and if form means any- thing, the locals should win.
