ed in Canadian WiIds.

ST LOUIS, Mo-, October 21.-Three
balloons, the America II, Azurea and
Dusseldorf III, contestants for the inter-

Toronto, and Lieut.. Gov. c. Alphonse
Pelletier at Quebec. The Hudson Bay
Company. with headquarters at Mon

The America II, the only American
entry unreported, carried thirty bags Of
ballast. Aeronauts here do not believe it
could remain in the air eighty-seven
hours, the time from when it left here
Monday until o'clock this morning.
The last balloon to land was the Hell
vetia, piloted by Col. Shack, winner of
the race from Berlin in 1905 He landed
in Pontiac county, Quebec, $50 miles from
St. Louis, Wednesday,.
So far the balloon which was reported
to have passed over kiskising, Ont, is

NEW YORK, October 21.-The cam

parties and to the auxiliary organiza-
ton as we'll.

Some of the wiseacres think that all
