that these exgovernors who were

WELLMAN IN FLIGHT
HUGE DlRlGIBLE STARTS FROM
ATLANTIC ClTY-lS OFF
FOR EUROPE.
CARRIES CREW OF SIX MEN
Airship Equipped With Wireless
Months Supply of Provisions on
Board-Last Message Until Graft
Strikes Ships Course Is Received.

Atlantic City, N. J.-Walter Well
man, the newspaper man, with crew
Of five other daring aeronauts, are
dying over the Atlantic ocean in his
dirigible balloon America, with the
nope of landing on European soil,
providence and weather permitting,
5000 miles away.
Wireless dispatches which have
been received at intervals since the
big dirigible sailed aloft at eight
o'clock Saturday morning told OF
heavy fogs, minor engine troubles and
the like, but finally an optimistic note
was sounded when the splutter of the
wireless announced that Wellman ani
his crew were doing fine and had final
" determined to head for Europe.
The last message expected from
the America until it strikes the trans
Atlantic steamer lane came into the
wireless station Sunday at Siasconsett
On the northerly end of Nantucket
and read: "All well. No trouble
with machinery. Expect to make the
trip.
The crew aboard the America when
it left the ground included Walter
Wellman, Melvin Vaniman, chief en-
gineer; F. hurry Simons, navigator of
the expedition; J. K. Irwin, wireless
operator, in charge OF the Americas
system, and Albert Louis Loud and
John ALBERT, assistant engineers.
The start was made .OS
when the America rose into fog and
disappeared over the ocean, while
something over 1000 men, women and
children cheered.
There are six men on the airship
and they have provision, mostly of
the canned variety, sufficient to last
them a month. The airship's gas
bag has something of the shape of a
cigar and is 22S feet long. It's width
is about fifty-two feet and is said to
be capable of lifting about twelve tons
The envelope carrying the gas weighs
more than two tons.
Attached to the big gas bag is a
car 1876 feet long. The floor of the car
is really large, fiat tank, in which
the gasoline is stored for the motors
The America carries three gasoline
engines, one of which is a donkey and
the other two are used for motive
power. They are in the center of the
car and are Of about eighty-horse
power. Beneath the car hangs a life
boat q feet long, to be used in case
the balloon is wrecked.
