Thirty minutes later she Twas a wreck on Barren Island in Jamaica Bay, ten miles away. She had fallen into the bay like a shot bird, after frantic race shoreward with the nose of her envelope collapsing as hydrogen gas escaped from rents in the top of the bag.
 In the battle to reach the landing field, Lieutenant A. w. Evans, the ship commander, had forced her 5000 feet into the air by the sheer power of her twin engines. Ballast and all movable equipment had gone over board, but as the crippled monster swept over the landing field with her head sagging, he dared not attempt to bring her down ashore. She had started her final plunge, dragged down by the weight of the men and the car.
 Shifting her course toward Jamaica Bay beyond. Evans drove the balloon with elevator slanting clear back, to lift her. Farther and farther down came the ships head and, less than two miles away, she dived into the water nose first and few minutes later floated gently ashore. where he passengers and crew climbed out, wet. but without scratch for the 5000 feet drop.

CHICAGO, July 21.-Submission of the S6oo,0oo,ooo railway wage award to a referendum vote by the 100000 railroad workers without any recommendation from the union leaders, either for it's acceptance or rejection, appeared probable tonight.
 This was the opinion in tabor circles following rejection oy the UrIted States railway labor board or a petition for a rehearing of tse case.
 The more conservative union counsel has steadfastly opposed outright rejection of the labor boards decision.
 After asking for a rehe iring it appeared doubtful that the union leaders could consistently recon mend acceptance of the award, as their action indicated th7s it was unsatisfactory to them.
 The labor board detlined to fe-op- en the case on the ground that it's decision represented the conclusions reached after an exhaustive survey in which both sides had been given ample time to present all facts. No good could be accomplished at this time, members of the board stat ed, by granting a rehearing which would only serve to delay the case and prevent the men receiving the increased back wages in their August 1 pay envelopes.
