Only the mother and a brother, Edmond 17, who is a student In an English school, survive.

Monynge, when informed of the death by the Associated Press today said that he would immediately get In touch with the Greenwich police and take charge of the body and inform the boys mother in Europe of his death. Servants at the home of Mr Monell and at his mothers home, 3 East 84th st, said that Mr Monell had gone to Greenwich for a week-end vacation trip.

In a few short days the boy Jiave been witnesses and victims of an astounding variety of weather, including a storm that tried tq wash and blow their tents away and a drizzle that attempted to drown their boyish enthusiasm. The Americans among them have hiked miles in the mud getting acquainted with the fellow Scouts from 42 countries, have waited hours in the rain for a glimpse of the Prince of Wales and then later nearly mobbed him with their cameras. Much more remains to both Amerl-cans and those of other Nations before Aug 13, when the Jamboree ends and the boys scatter to the worlds four corners. The feature of todays program of the jamboree is the pageant of the sea Scouts.

SETS SUNDAY AFTERNOON. AS TIME FOR ARRIVAL BERLIN, Aug 3 (A The dirigible Graf Zeppelin doea not expect to reach New York before Sunday afternoon, declares a ept-Jal dispatch received here this morning from tbs UHstein News Agency correspondent aboard tha dirigible. The correspondent gave the speed of tha Zeppelin beginning her long, steady push across the Atlantis from the Azores as 43 miles an hour. The time was given as 1 a Saturday, Greenwich mean time (9 m.

Friday, Boston time). Her position was west and south of Pico Island In the Azores, The Uilsteln correspondent found the seven American passengers aboardthe dirigible much more enthusiastic over the voyage than the "blase Germans." Everybody was dying for a smoke, he said, and found the Idea almost unbearable that people could smoke elsewhere in the world, Zeppelin May Break Previous Trip Time by More Than a Day If the Graf Zeppelin, as now seems possible, lands at noon tomorrow, making her time from Germany to Lakehurst about 85 hours, It will have beaten by more than a day the time on its previous successful crossing of the Atlantic, The crossing lastFall required 111 hours 38 minutes. At that time the Zeppelin flew over Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York before landing at Lakehurst GRAF ZEPPELIN HEARD BY STEAMSHIP SCYTHIA BAR HARBOR, Me, Aug 3 The naval radio station here received a message from the steamship Scythia, which said: Heard the Graf Zeppelin at 5, East-ern daylight time, this morning. Her position was 36 20' and 37 90' GREAT AIR LINER PUSHING THROUGH WALL OF WIND NEW YORK, Aug 3 (A. -Nearing the American coast, the Graf Zeppelin pu ed -eadily into the Western Atlantics wall of wind today with the expectation of circling New York city posaibly by noon Sunday, Its position was reported in a radlc message to the Navy Department at Washington at 8:05 Boston time, last night, which said thq dirigible waa 90 miles south of Pico, Azores.

It left Frledrichshafen, Ger at 3:29 a Thursday (10:39 Boston time, Wednesday). The position given was about 9500 miles from Frledrichshafen, and about 2100 miles by the northern route, from New York. The ship gave Its speed at 62 miles an hour. Its position indicated an average speed since departure of 56 miles an hour. Drops Bundles of Mall Previously at 8:20 m.

G. M. (4:20 Boston time) the Zeppelin circled low over Santa Maria Island at the far eastern end of the Azores Archipelago, and dropped two Tmndles of mail wrapped In a German flag. It followed the 36th parallel west ward then, and as it was getting dark, cruised to the south of Fayal, near where there would have been danger in striking the mountain Island Pico, which rises 7600 feet above sea level. Residanta of Harta were greatly disappointed at not sighting the Graf, Th message to the Navy Department said the Zeppelin was heading northwestward, presumably Indicating It had chosen a northern rather than southerly course, and would nass north of Bermuda, sighting its first land Sunday, somewhere along the northeastern United' States Atlantlo seaboard.

Presuming there would be continuing head winds in the face of which the Graf would be able to make only its last reported 52 miles an hour, the ehip might be expected to reach New York, before berthing at Lakehurst, at about noon Sunday. If such should be the case the Zeppe-lin would have compie ted its Germany-to-America Journey in approximately 85 hours. Further delay in approaching the Atlantic seaboard or change from the northerly Great Circle route from the Azores to the aoutharly would Increase the time necessary to complete the flight. Ship Performs Well Messages from aboard the Graf Zeppelin indicated a pleasant voyage, with the J3 passengers singing, playing cards and patching ths Atlantic panorama below them. It was cloudy part of the tune and at other times th adverse winds made the ship roll slightly, but no one bad any fault to find with tha performance of fhe Zeppelin.

The Graf Zeppelin passed high over Gibraltar at i a Friday morn-hg (11 Thursday, Boston time), entering th Atlantic phase of its trip and leaving that of the Mediterranean and European mainland behind. It was cloudy and the fortress rock itself could not be seen by th who had been awakened three times for a lat glimpse of Europe. At th last aw' ening, however, they did see lights at Ceuta, on the opposite African shore. Up to this point progress of the Zeppelin had been slow, but thereafter Its positon was reported short intervals as it advanced at a faster rate to tho west. Early tfriday afternoon the Casablanca, Morocco, wireless station heard th craft was 600 miles west of Gibraltar at 8 Greenwich mean time (4 pm Loston time).

Th mail bundles were dropped over Santa Maria at 9 Greenwich mean time. The Zeppelin reported it waa over Ean Miguel Island and going strong.

No Successor nope to go to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and soma day be a chemical Aa to money, I only want enough to be independent. I never expected to win the scholarship contest. I am very happy to have won it and have the opportunity to go to a fine university and make contacts with men foremost In their fields. Id like to correct an erroneous Impression.

There is no such thing as a successor to Mr Edison. That would be impossible, and I am not so foolish as to think that. The examination given I thought fair, but I found all the question! tough and worked until the last 10 minutes of my time. I wish more boya could have the same opportunity that I am going to have.

His favorite reading he described as biography, and when the ticklish question of the automobiles use a century from now cam up, be asserted that it would be as useful as ever for short trips, but that he believed the-airplane would supersede it on long hauls, Ths problem of moving a S-ton rock on a desert island without tools caused some hesitancy, but Huston answered It by declaring that If be could find a lever and had an Inclined plane, would be able easily to start It rolling. No other boy was mentioned, when 1 he was asked If be could name an other in his school who was smarter than he.

He would willingly sacrifice comfort for success, he said in answer to another question. Wilber Huston does not smoke. He has never been a Boy Scout nor member of the Y. M. C.

A- At the Lakeside School In Seattle he was a member of the fencing team, and also was on ths tsnnis and football teams, but hs explained that it was a small school, and that thsre was little competition with other His assertion that, while did not wish to act as spokssma" for the Edison boys, would bo capable of doing it if necessary, proved very true when he was presented to Mayor Walker.

As we near tb end of our second day together it has become increasingly certain to us that this Is the most congenial crowd ever assembled in a ship, either on water or in the air. While the world is anxious and wondering about us we are singling and telling storieB and having a good time, not at all in a hurry to reach New York. Even the- gorilla seems to have entered the spirit of the thing, and Insists on having company all of the time. She is quite affectionate. It has been sunny part of the time.

The ship has behaved fine. When we passed over Santa Mafia Island at 8:20 tonight (4:20 ra Boston time), we dropped two bundles of mail wrapped In a German Sag. The sea was very calm. Joseph S. Waterman Frank S-Waterman George H.
