NAMES DISCUSSED
SUCCESSOR TO GEN. MARSHALL
SOON TO BE CHOSEN.
Chief of Engineers of the Army Will
Retire June 11-0ficers Being
Considered for the Place.

The next important army appointment
at the disposal Of the President Is that
Of chief Of engineers Of the army. Gen.
William NJ. Marshall, the incumbent. re-
tires for age June IL next. and It will be
necessary to select his successor before
that date. The oficer first In line of pro-
motion is Col. William H. Bixby. presi-
dent OF the Mississippi river commission.
with station at ST. Louis. The second
ranking officer Is Col. William T. Rossell.
formerly Engineer Commissioner of the
District, and now division engineer Of the
eastern division. with station at New
York. Following him in rank is Col. Dan
c. Kingman. division engineer of the
southeast division, at Savannah. Ga. Col.
William M. Black, formerly Engineer
Commissioner Of the District and now d.
vision engineer OF the northeast division.
at New York, stands number four in line.
In case the President decides to waive
the question of seniority In this appoint
ment, 1t is not at all improbable that
either Col. George w. Cocktails chief en-
giner Of the Panama canal. or Col. Fred
eric V. Abbot, principal assistant to the
chief Of engineers at the War Depart
number seven in his grade, and Col. cSoet-
halls 10 number ten and the junior
colonel.
It Is known that President Taft and
Secretary Dickinson think highly OF the
ability Of Col Cocktails and desire him to
complete the work on the great waterway.
Whether he could continue to give his
personal attention to that project and at
the same time administer the affairs of
the ONCE Of chief of engineers at Wash
ington 1s a question to be considered in
his selection for the latter Office. AS chair
man and chief engineer of the Panama
canal Col Goethals receives greater COM
pensation than he would as chief OF en-
gineers, and it is believed he would not
care to relinquish the work on the canal.
especially as 1t is now nearing the stage
Of completion. Col. Goethals will not
reach the retiring age until 1922. and UNI
doubtedty will have other chances for
elevation to the head Of the engineering
department Of the army by the earlier
retirement Of several OF his present sem
iors in the corps.

BALLOON WRECKED IN AIR,
FOUR AVIATORS KILLED
Whirlwind Rips Off Cover of Gas
Bag and Big Machine
Drops.
Special Cshlegram TO The Star.

SpttidI I'D liz S'di-
BERLIN, April 1S.-An examination Of
what remains of the balloon Dehtzsch,
which was wrecked near Bitterfield yes
terday morning. and of the bodies OF the
four men who were killed shows that the
big bag was not struck by lightning as
at first supposed There are no signs of
burns on the bodies of the victims nor OF
fire In the envelope Of the balloon. 1t is
now thought the accident was caused by
a whirwind tearing the cover of the big
gas bag.
Early this morning resident OF Reich
ensachsen. about sixty miles from Bitter
field, heard among peals of thunder one
crash so loud that he believed lightning
had struck a house. but not hearing any
thing further likely to support this De
lief he went to sleep again Going out
after daylight he was astonished 10 ma
wrecked balloon and four distorted
bodies of men lying In his garden Tne
bag Of the balloon was ripped and torn
in an amazing fashion. 1t was hanging
In a tree, through the bOughs OF which
the men had evidently fallen. The
smashed car of the balloon was nearby.
From the condition of the bodies and
the deep depressions in the ground, 1t
was evident that they had fallen from
q great height 1t was at first supposed
that the disaster was due to lightning
striking the balloon. Whether 1t had also
killed the occupants was not quite GER
tain but there were sufficient indications
10 encourage the belief that they were
spared the awful experience Of falling
alive to death.
Herr Lueschenring was engaged TO
steer the Parsevai airship on the pas
senger route from Munich to Oberammer-
eau. which will be inaugurated shortly.
