AIRShIp ESCAPES,

German Military Dirigibie Breaks
Away From Soldiers.
n DROWNED IN ANOTHER
Seven Victims Of Tuesdays Disaster
Were Tsken From Wreekaqe In the
North Sea.

|. Berlin, Sept. 1.-Two soldiers were
killed and another dirigible Zeppelin
balloon narrowly escaped destruction
here when the great German military
airship I-2 was wrenched from the
hands OF $50 men and carried alOft by
a sndden gust of wind. The dirigible Is
still in the air.
To pedo boat destroyerS, with their
searchiights, remained all night at the
scene OF Tuesdays airship catastro-
phe in which only seven of crew OF
twenty one were saved, when the Yep
pelin airship LII was wrecked by
hurricane in the North sea off Helgo
land.
One body was recovered Tuesday
night and six more were found Wed
nesday, including those of Captain
Netting, chief of the naval airship
service, and Captain Hanne, command
er of the wrecked dirigible.
The bodies of the seven others are
probably in the cabin of the airship,
which lies at the bottom of one of the
deepest parts OF the North sea. The
hurricane which destroyed the airship
turned into a steady gale and 1t has
been impossible to locate the wreck.
1t became known that hydroaero.
plane. accompanying the dirigible, also
had a narrow escape from destruction.
The aviator. Lieptenant Lengfeld, saw
the cyclone storm approaching and
reached a haven Of safety just IN
time. The Zeppelin tried to circle the
storm, but was drawn into 1t. The rud-
ders and pracinnes were useless. and
the heavy rain and furious wind jam
med the helpless craft seward.
The LII was on voyage from the
mainland to aelgoland, twenty-eight
miles, This is the twelfth accident to
befall the Zeppelin airships and the
first to be accompanied by loss Of life,
The voyage was apparently without
incident until the disaster came, when
the LII was struck by the hurricane
eighteen miles north of Helgoland.
The great airship was hurled to the
surface of the sea, where she was soon
pounded to pieces by the wind and the
waves.
According to the incomplete reports
the big ship .foated for about an hour
and then buckled in the middle before
she sank
The German high sea feet is now
assembled at Helgoland for maneuvers
and Immediately the news reached the
island torpedo boats and destroyers
steamed at full speed to the rescue,
They arrived in time to save seven Of
the crew from the sea in the vicinity
of the wreck.
It is understood that some officers
of high rank were aboard the LII. but
the only names mentioned in the early
reports are Lieutenant HRnne. the
commander. and Captain Won Me{Sfn&;
The news was immedtAtel1
phoned to the kaiser In salsbrunn Ne
|, tidings reaching him during dance
which was being held at the end OF
the days maneuvers. The dance was
at once suspended. The kaiser broke
down in tears, and said he would an,
nounee the news of the terrible disas;
ter to Count Zeppelin. who is now. 10
Salzbrunn. The usually stolid count
stated that the calamity struck despair
to his heart, as the dirigible was. the
finest In the world. "
