Held for Assault With Intent to Commit
Rape
The examination OF L. g. Toleman for
assault to commit rape was concluded
in Justic Morrsons' court yesterday,
the defendant being held to answer in
the superior court in $500 bonds.
An effort was made by Toleman's at
torneys to have the case dismissed on the
grounds that there was not sufficient evil
dence to prove an intent TO commit rape.
Evidence was introduced for the purpose
of showing thar Mrs. Longley had at first
consented TO accompany Toleman along
Fifth street. No attempt was made,
however, to deny the charge of assault,
nor was there any evidence to prove that
Toleman did not intend to commit the
alleged offense.

atus, in case the balloon, for
some reason or other, should
unexpectedly and rapidly de-
scend. In that case, as soon as
the lower ends of the ballast
lines touch the ground, the
balloon will be relieved from
lifting a corresponding weight,
and consequently the rapiaity
of the descent will be checked.
Mr.. Andres balloon, which
will be made of the finest silk;
double-sewn, and prepared with
the greatest of care, viii be so
balanced that an ascent OF
about 500 feet can be attained.
How long it viii take to reach
the pole depends upon the
speed Of the wind. With q
speed like that which carried
Mr.. Andres balloon from Co
thenburg to Gothlaud on Nov.
20 last year, he will be able, he
says, to reach the pole in ten
hours. At an average speed of
seventeen miles an hour the
trip from Spitzbergen to the
pole will require forty three
hours. At all events, a Journey
from Spitzbergen direct across
the pole to the Behring Straits
calculated to require no more
than six days and nights, one
fifth of the time the polar bal
loon is supposed to be capable
of remaining sustained in the
air.
A great advantage, TO which
Mr. Andre calls attention, is
the fact that during the jour
ney, which will be undertaken
in the spring, the sun will all
the time be above the horizon,
so that he can travel ahead at
night without stopping. Be
sides, no great charge of TEN
perature prevails in the regions
to be traversed, and, moreover,
the ground is everywhere free
from vegetation, SO that moth
ing will prevent the drag lines,
on which Mr. Andre chiefly de
ponds as regards the manage
ment Of the balloon, from run
ming smoothly along.
Afterreading his paper before
the Academy ia Stockholm, Mr..
Andre repeated it on February
20 before the Anthropological
Society, where it was received
with much enthusiasm.
1t is estimated that the trip
will cost about S35, 900, and it
looks as if Mr.. Andre would
have no difficulty in raising the
amount.

TO THE POLE
BY BALLOON.
The Swedish Engineer Andre
Hopes To Do Ii.
Electrical Student.

aeronaut Andre. who, on a re-
cent balloon trip from GoLhen-
burg TO Gothland, succeeded in
steering his balloon twenty sew
en- degrees out of the direction
OF the wind, read a paper be-
fore the Academy of Sciences
in Stockholm the other day,
in which he explained how he
thinks he will be able to reach
the pole in a balloon. He will
make the attempt from Spitz-
bergen, and in order that it
shall succeed, makes the follow
ing conditions:
/. The balloon must have a
lifting power that Will enable
it to carry three passengers, in
struments needed for observa-
tons provisions for fourm0nths.
and ballast, a total weight of
about 1000 pounds.
=. 1t must be made 50 air
tight that it can be sustained
in the air for thirty days and
nights.
3. In must be inflated in some
place in the Arctic regions.
4. 1t must be constructed ac-
cording to Mr.. Andres plan, so
that it can be managed.
The first, second and third
conditions, Andre says, can be
met without difficulty. To at
tain the requisite lifting power
is a problem long since solved,
and by experiments made some
time ago by Poisenilles and
Graham with a balloon 2S feet
in diameter, it was shown that
they had succeeded in making
it so air tight that at the end
of one month it had lost only
sixteen pounds Of its lifting
power. The initiation of the
balloon i'll the Arctic regions
presents on difficulty, hydro
gen gas now being delivered
compressed in iron cylinders.
Mr., Andre says that LOO to
1900 cyclinders will suffice for
1 the initiation of his balloon.
1t is the last condition which
creates doubts as to whether
the journey can be made. Mr.,
Andre, however, is confident
that by adopting the following
plan, which he has already
tried, he will reach his aim:
His balloon will have 9
system of sails and many drag
lines, which Will hang down
from the balloon and drag along
the surface of the water, the
land, and the ice, while the
balloon is afoat. These lines
will. as Mr.. Andre learned on
the trip mentioned, check the
speed of the balloon, prevent
ing it from moving along with
the full speed of the wind, and
under those conditions The sails
can be so used as TO defect the
balloon from the course of the
wind. The drag lines will be
made Of the fibres of the husk
Of the cocoanut, so that they
will float on the water. Besides
the balloon will have several
} heavy ropes hanging down tc
serve partly as ballast, partly
as an automatic saving appar
