Charcoal Kills Bad Breath fiad Odor of Indigestion, Smoking, Drinking or Eating Can Be Instantly Stopped. New York, October 10. On a fast track, her big turbines whirling like a diabolo shoot, the Cunard liner Lusitanla la today plunging toward New York at a pace which will bring her to Sandy Hook tonight at 10 o'clock. Her time from Queenstown, if she maintains her present gait, will be four days, sixteen hours and thirty minutes, and every record of the seas will be hers. At 9 o'clock last night a wireless message from Captain J.

B. Watt reported the great ship 620 miles east of the Hook, and running: on the last lap like a Kansas jack-rabbit. The smoothness of her track is liable to land her on this side even before 1 o'clock. There appears to be no doubt that she will arrive in time to capture all honors. The Cunard officials at Iondon today Issued a notice claiming 619 miles as the.

Lusitania's swiftest day's run from Tuesday noon to noon Wednesday in-Ftead of 617 as reported by Captain Watt. The discrepancy was not explained. The average speed by the company's calculation was 21. 7S knots an hour. She has made 25 knits on some parts of the course, and it is thought sue will reach the Hook at that rate.
