After a Day Spent In New York They Will Proceed to Dayton.
New York, May 10.—Marked tributes of homage await Wilbur and Orville Wright of Dayton, O., when they arrive in New York Tuesday from Europe where their triumphs in aviation have been keenly watched by the world at large.
The stay of the brothers in New York will be of short duration—one day; but during the twenty-four hours they will be the figures of interest at several receptions and luncheons given by the Aero Club of America and the Automobile Club of America.
After a day spent In the metropolis the brothers will proceed to Dayton, their home city. There they will complete the aeroplane which is to be delivered to the government at Fort Myer, Va., next month.
