German Officers Conduct Successful Exper-
iments on the Spree.
The aeronautic division of the German
army has recently been conducting some
interesting experiments on the Upper
Spree, near Berlin, with view to test
ing the capabilities of a captive balloon
as a means of recOnnoitrIng in war
time. On wooden platform placed on
two pontoons was fixed windlass, on
which was wound the rope holding the
balloon, Along the rope ran telegraph
wire connecting the balloon with the
platform, on which an officer, seated at a
table with his telegraphic apparatus in
front of him, was able to carry on COM
munication with the occupant of the bal
loon, who, at height of some three
thousand feet above the ground com
manded a vast expanse of country.

The United States will not ask undue

The acknowledgment of the van

nation have contended. Having
done this America should treat with
