EXPLOSION ON
GERMAN CRAFT
Zeppelin DirigIbIe Blows Up
5000 Feet Above Earth
rWENTY-cIGHT ARE KILLED
Only One Man Escaped Instant Death
and He Is Critically Injured-SeV-
enth of Similar Airships to Meet
With Dlsaster-Was on Her First
Trip When Disaster Occurred

Members of an admiralty COM
mission headed by Commander Benin
isch and the entire crew of the Zeppe-
lin dirigible LIZ, twenty eight men in
all of twenty nine on board, were in
stantly killed when the balloon blew
up, 5000 feet above Johannisthal avi-
alton field, near Berlin.
The LIZ was the latest of the aerial
war craft built by the Zeppelin COM
pany for the German navy and was
on her trial trip. The admiralty COM
missioners killed in the accident were
aboard to approve the dirigible and
take her over for the new aerial navy.
Lieutenant Baron Won Bleut of the
Queen Augusta grenadier guards was
making the trip as guest, and is the
only survivor. He is in a critical con-
dition. Many of the bodies of men,
bers of the crew were so badly burned
they were unacceptable. The kaiser
has ordered an immediate report on
the accident.
The disaster occurred while the air
ship was over the outskirts of Jo-
hannisthal. The craft fell on the main
highway leading into Johannisthal, its
blackened and twisted framework
blocking the road.
The exact cause of the accident is
not known. The dirigible had just
left its shed and traversed barely
quarter of mile in the direction of
nyhn Of 40
shot from the middle of the balloon.
The next instant the craft was mass
OF flame, plunging to earth, burying
those aboard beneath its wreckage.
The accident, one Of the most spec
tacular in the history of German avia-
ton, was witnessed by hundreds of
people. The huge craft, measuring
500 feet from end to end, was sailing
gracefully 5000 feet up when suddenly
those below were Mortified to see a
burst of flame and smoke.
Instantly fire enveloped the great
gas bag. 1t was not until a percept-
ible lapse of time that the spellbound
watchers heard the terrific defamation
and knew that an explosion had caused
the fire.
The monster balloon plunged earth
ward like a blazing meteor and the
spectators scattered in all directions
to save themselves from the deluge of !
fire that came with her.
This was the seventh of the air
craft built by the aged Count Zeppelin,
pioneer of German aviation, that has
come to grief, but only the last three
accidents were attended with loss of
life.
While thousands of Berliners were |
racing to Johannisthal to see the re-
mains of the LIZ, the Zeppelin pass
enger cruiser Hansa suddenly appeared |
over the capital.
1t was said that the Hansa was or
dered aloft to counterfeit the effect /
on the public of what is now admitted |
to be the greatest catastrophe in the |
history of German aviation.
