 sissippi.
 Indianapolis, Ind, June 7.--If the balloon Indiana has not been disquali- fled by touching earth, 1t has broken the American endurance record. which has stood for year at forty-four hours.
 Starting in the national distance race of the Aero Club of America from this city Saturday afternoon, two re- ports have been received from the In- diana. The first. one was that 1t had touched the earth in Tennessee and had taken on water and proceeded to- ward the south. If this be true, the balloon Is disqualified under the rules of the International Aeronautic Fed eration.
 A second dispatch, received in this city and signed by the pilot, Carl Fisher ,and the aide G. L. Bumba baugh, has stated that they dropped down near enough to earth to let down a line and draw up bucket of water, thereafter rising for further travel. Under the latter condition, the Indiana has not disqualified and has broken the endurance record.
 It is not possible, according to avail able information, that the Indiana has broken the distance record of S52 miles, for the travelling due south. and would come to the Gulf coast almost a hum dred miles short of the record estab- lished by the German balloon Pom mern, in the international race last year for the James Gordon Bennett tro- phy, starting from St. Louis and Iand- ing at Asbury Park. N. !.
 The last of the six balloons entered in the national distance race from which a definite landing report has been received is the St. Louis III, which dropped at Kelso, Tenn, having covered about $40 miles. A. B. Lam bert was the pilot and F. T. Honey well the aide.
 The other balloons landed as fol- lows. covering the following approxi- mate distances:
 The New York, A Holland Forbes, pilot, landed at Corinth, Miss, cover ing 375 miles in thirty-six hours and ten minutes.
 The University City of St. Louis. travelled $40 miles. landing at at Blanche, Tenn. Time, twenty-avs hours and rwenty-four minuteA
 The Rooster, Captain Baldwin, pilot, travelled 24O miles, landing at Green brier, Tenn.
