AVIATION.
(Australian & N.Z. Cable Association.) FATAL AEROPLANE ACCIDENT. NEW YORK, Sept. 17. At Newmarket (New Jersey) six persons were killed and four others injured so seriously they may die, when a, large Fokker plane carrying ten passengers besides the pilot and mechanics, crashed in an orchard. A commercial company had instituted a new short trip service, charging one cent per pound of person for a ten minute ride. Over one hundred persons applied for rides, and the air mail pilot, unaccustomed to this typo of plane, made five success, fill trips, but foil on the sixth. Tbo dead include the pilot and mechanic. BENTLEY ARRIVES. CAIRO, Sept. 19. Bentley arrived from Alonagalla.
