this city. When last seen the balloon
was taking an easterly course, and it is
feared the aerOnauts have met with
fatal disaster.
SAN FRANcISCo, July 5.-About mid
night Prof. ColgrOve returned to the
city and reported that the balloon came

the water over two miles in about the
same number of minutes and struck

of the bay, which threw out both the
occupants, who were somewhat cut and
bruised, hut not seriously injured.
Freed from its burden the balloon rose
again and sailed off eastward, coming
down as previously reported. Colgroye

which they waded, and gaining firm
ground, made their way to Alamada and
thence to this city.
