BLOWN TO ATOMS.
Professor John Baldwin, an Aeronaui
Meets a Tragic Death at Green
willie, O..

Greenville. O.. Sept. 2.-ln sight of
$500 persons Professor John Baldwin
was blown to atoms here yesterday aft
ernoon by the explosion of six sticks
of dynamite while 1900 feet in the air.
His wife and three children were
among the spectators who Witnessed
the tragedy.
Baldwin has been giving daily exhi-
billions at the county fair here. He
would ascend several thousand feet in
the air and explode dynamite at inter
walls. Yesterday he mounted 1,5OO feet
in the air. Every eye among the thou
sands of spectators below watched him
until he became almost a mere speck.
Suddenly a great cloud of smoke APP
peared. 1t hid the airship from view,
the spectators supposed. as the balloon
had vanished completely from sight.
In another the sound of the
explosion reached the ears of the
watchers. but the airsilip did not again
appear.
For a moment the crowd waited ex-
~pectantly, thinking that a view of the
%neronaut would be obtained. Then a
groan of horror arose from the multi
tude. The airshlp had vanished.
Searchers Immediately began looking
for fragments of the wrecked airShip.
A half mile away they found pieces of
the silk cloth from which the balloon
was made and splintcrs Of the nsket
like framework on which the acronnut
had been perched. Scattered about a
twenty-arre field al found fragments
of Baldwin's body.
The distance at which the nna
of the airship fell was so great that
the crowds had not seen the fragments
fall. No n can tell how the acct
len occurred. The six sticks of dyna-
mite which Baldwin carried with him
exploded simultaneously, as only one
report was heard. 1t is supposed that
in iguitinS the fuse connected With
the dynamite he fired the gas in the
balloon and that it exploded, causing
the dynamite to explode also. BaldWin's
business was aerial warfare demon-

For nearly twenty years he has been

he did not do so on account of his de-

CONTRACT. FOR CONSUL.
Sixty-Five Circus People Want t.

Washington. Sept. Consul Mason,
at Grenoble. France, reports that the
stranded American circus numbers six
ty-tive persons for whose return some
provision is necessary. Consul are
everywhere accustomed to such re-
quests. but seldom Is the opportunity
for wholesale orders so good. The only
way relief can legally be afforded, so
h state department officials say, Is
by having the president in his private
capacity borrow the money necessary
from some bank. asking congress to
authorize the payment Of the note when
1t became due. 1t is assumed that the
Individuals aided would not prove the
best security for the presidents loan.
He certainly could not sell his claims
against them, To experienced consular
officers for any large fraction of the
face value. Several years g the de-
partment requested all our conSuls to
report OF the Mount of money which
they had to eXpend yearly In helping
stranded Americans to return: it was
agreed that the drain was large. The
