PARMENTIER AND MOLL.
HOPE TO CATCH SCOTT. Received October 22, 10.10 a.m. BAGDAD, Oct. 21. Parmentier and Moll left at 8.25 p.m. They insist that they qre simply demonstrating that it is passible to travel from England to Australia in six days. The flight is purely experimental and has nothing to do with the prize money. Parmentier sa.ys he is finding the trip tiresome. They remained a short while at Allahabad for the convenience of the passengers. Parmentier said he had the smoothest journey in his experience over the route. He hopes to catch Scott. Parmentier and Moll are nursing their engines, but hope to go full out after leaving Singapore.
