FAST BALLOON TRIP
AERONAUTS GO A MILE A MIN
UTE THROUGH AIR.
1T IS DRIVEN TOWARD The SEA
Accompanied by Rich Philadelphia,
Hawley Sails Eighty Miles
Among Clouds.

New York, April 23.-Nearly IL, 900
feet high among the clouds and whirl-
ing through the air at times faster
than a mile a minute, Alan r. Haw-
ley, a wealthy stock broker of this
city, with Arthur T. Altenholt, a rich
Philadelphian, closed a sensational
balloon flight last night.
They started from PHILADELPHIA. in
tending to make a quick trip to this
city. They ran into an easterly cur
rent of air, which blew with hurricane
force after passing New Brunswick,
n. j.
The velocity of the wind they esti-
mated at So miles an hour. They
feared, if they remained among the
clouds, that they would be swept far
out over the Atlantic ocean, so they
decided to cut the journey short.
They Travelled many. miles, how
ever, before they reached the earth,
and then they landed in a creek near
Matawan, N. J. Both men were
bumped and jostled about severely
and emerged from the creek very wet
but extremely happy. Their only re-
greet was that records which they
had made while the balloon was fly
ing far above the earth at a speed
greater than the fastest express train
were lost in the creek.
Their flight from start to finish
lasted SO minutes, more than Is min
utes being spent in maneuvering for
a landing. In a bee line, the landing
place was 60 miles from the starting
point, but it is estimated they actually
travelled about 80 miles, not counting
a straight upshoot into air of a mile
at the start and other ascents and
descents during the journey.
1t was the sixth balloon flight for
Mr.; Hawley and the second for his
companion. They used an immense
French balloon named the Initial.
owned by. A. NJ. Chandler. The big
bag holds $4,000 cubic feet of gas.

injuries yesterday evening at the Cen

mainly that could not be controlled.
The demonstration was so great that
it was impossible for the president 10
speak. He made many attempts, but
finally gave up. He pleaded with the
crowd to have a care for the women
and the children-he knew there was
danger of a panic, and he did all In MS
power to avoid a catastrophe.
The cheering was almost incessant,
and in the wild rush to get close to the

their feet and men had to fight back

train arrived President Roosevelt was
riding upon the rear platform. Inc
cheers that began as soon as the head
light cast it's first rays through the
shed were renewed with infinitely
greater volume when the presidents
face and figure came into view.
How He Handled Crowd
H. Clay Evans was the first person
recognized by the president n was at
once invited to the car platform. To a
near the president said: do not ask
me to shake hands. If 1 begin there
will be a panic here. That crowd will
surge in here with a force no power
can resist. I know, for 1 have tried It
about him. sizing up the crowd that
surged and cheered without any 1ndi-
cation hat it would cease. Mr.. Evans
held up his hand, reckoning Tor
silence, but he had as we'll have beck
oned to a coming cyclone or an ap-
preaching avalanche.
"My fellow-citizens,'' said Mr.
Evans, but his fellow-citizens heard
him not. He wanted to the
president. The crowd felt
deemed no Introduction
necessary. Then Mr.. Roosevelt tried
his hand. He went to the right rail.
The people in that direction cheered.
and the president smiled. He leaned
over the rear rail of his car and the
thousands in, that direction cheered.
He looked to the left. and again a
tun1ult Of applause greeted him.
He could but smile, and bow. and
wave his hand. No human voice could
Presently it ceased for a little while.
Then, with all his vocal power, Mr..
Roosevelt said:
INV friends and fellow citizens, be as
quiet as you can and I'll try to say a
few words in appreciation of this mag
nifcent ovation. This is the most -en-
crowd, and the largest one.
that has greeted my arrival In any city
during this great trip through the

Then the crowd began to surge. The
president heId up a warning hand
Don't, don't, don't, my good people;
there are women and chill
dren In the crowd. It's dangerous; try
to be quiet" he said
The president tried vainly to speak.
The few sentences he had uttered had
consumed nineteen minutes, and at 6:3l
the train was signaled ahead. AS 1t
away. the president waved a re.
to cheers thai followed him as
long as he was in sight.
