mans polar expedition in cabegran
from Spitzbergen. Under date of Aug

night, Mr. Wellman says:
THE airship America has been
waiting a fortnight for an opportuni
ty for a trial trip, and a start for the
pole 1t Is ready to depart at any

ing constantly for three weeks. and
ii is impossible to take the ship from

which might make it possible for him
