AERoNAUT CARRIED OUT TO SEA
Providence BalIOonitt Picked Up ny
Fi-hips Boat Ass@ NJ mHIes -, {
on the Coast. ~

BOSTON, July 6.-After one OF the most
remarkable experiences in the history of
aerial navigation, James x. Allen. the
aeronaut who made a balloon ascension
al Providence on the Fourth of July, was
brought TO this port tonight on the fishing
schooner Francis " Sylvia. Allen was
picked up at sea twelve miles of Chatham
at 7:3O O'Clock yesterday morning. eighteen
and a half hours after his departure from
Providence.
Allen had narrow escape from death
by drowning the winds that prevailed
Wednesday having blown his balloon a
long distance from shore Until news OF
his arrival here became known II had been
thought that he had met his death, as it
was known that at the last time he was
sighted on Wednesday evening he was
travelling out to sea.
That Allen is alive tonight is due wholly
to a fortunate shift OF the wind. When
he made his ascension al Providence on
Wednesday the wind was blowing a brisk
breeze from the southwest. The aeronaut
was carried in his balloon in a northeasterly
direction and passed over the town OF
Attleboro He had his balloon under per-
feet control at that time and while in the
vicinity OF Attleboro he descended twice.

the direction OF Brockton, and the last
seen of the aeronaut by observers on shore
was when he passed over Scituate early in
the evening. At that time the balloon
was headed straight out to sea When
Thursday dawned without any news being
received from Allen and II became known
that the last time he was seen was when
he was on the ocean shore headed out 10
sea It was then believed that he would
never return. After Allen passed over
Massachusetts bay his plight was more
( perilous. Wednesday night he was over
Provincetown. At this point OF the voyage
| the wind shifted from southwest 70 north
east and from Provincetown the balloon
/ sailed down the outer Cape Cod coast
| At 7;SO the aeronsut was rescued twelve
/ miles on Chatham by the fishermen Of the

| condition and was brought TO Boston on
/ the schooner. During his flight Allen COW

NEW YORK. July &--Judge Holt, in the
United States supreme court, today handed
down an opinion the effect Of which was
to dismiss the indictments found against
Nathsn Guilford. vice president, and F. 8.
Posneroy, trafhc manager OF the New York
Central railroad, and c. Goodloe and Edwin
Earle, the latter sugar merchants OF De-
troit, charging them with conspiracy to
violate the provisions of the Elkins rebat-
ing act, punishable by imprisonment. The
court, however. also holds that the ipdict-
nents against the New York Central road
Guilford ana Pomeroy. found under the
Elkins act are good and sustains them so
far as they are punishable by fine.
In sustaining the demurrer TO the con-
spiracy indictments and disinissing the de-
muFrer TO the other indictments the court
Nnlda that congress did not intend viola
tiSns Of the Elkins law TO be punishs BILE
By imprisonment Judge Holt further
holds that the amendment to the Elkins
act pr5vidinE a punishment by imprison-
MAeCt was not retroactive and therefore
Oeasa rot include the men charged with
conspiracy.
This American Sugar Refining company,
Jointly indicted with the New York Central,
pssaded not guilty, but interposed no de-
1g1urrers to the Indictment, preferring evil
deutly to stand trial under the indictments
as returned.
''The public" said United States District
Attorney Stimson today commenting on
the decision, must not misunderstood
Judge Hoit's decision The government
charges the defendants with two distinct
crimes; one for conspiring 70 commit an
offense against the government, and the
second for the actual commission Of tina;
offense The conspiracy Indictment was
returned under a federal enactment en-.
tirely separate and distinct from the Elk
ins act. BY this decision Judge Holt merely
holds that congress did not intend a viola
tion OF the Elkins act should be punished
with Imprisonment, and throws out tha,
Indictment The indictments returned
under the Elkins act are sustained in their
entirety by Judge Holt. and we shall pro.
